We had a marvelous stay in Stinson Beach. The cottage was quite comfortable for four of us. Having the beach just up the block was terrific. I wish we could have stayed longer.

Stinson beach cottage

My boyfriend and I have stayed at this little cottage several times. It is a sweet, clean spot in a great location. Wander down to the beach with coffee and/or champagne. Great spot to cook meals or walk down the beach to restaurants. Bed is very comfortable. Very relaxing there always

Great little cottage steps from the beach

This was the second time we rented this property. It is perfect for a family of four. It was very clean when we arrived and provides all the basics for cooking and beaching. It is a lovely short walk to the beach, no shoes required. I appreciate the ease of booking, checking in, and checking out. We truly enjoyed our stay!

Great for a small family

Perfect size for our young family of 4. We enjoyed the location and the beds were comfortable. We found plenty of towels, but could’ve used more than 2 washcloths for the 4 of us. There were plenty of numbers provided to call for issues, but we didn’t want to bother our hosts late into the evening or early in the morning (really the only times we were at the house for the two nights we stayed), so we made due! Thanks for an enjoyable stay!

Relaxing time at Stinson Beach

The cottage was wonderful. It is a few houses from the beach and about a quarter mile to the town. The house was well stocked with kitchen equipment and had everything we needed to cook. It was clean. We loved the fireplace and stocked wood to have a nice fire on a rainy day. The only issue was the internet which had a few times when not available. It reminded us we were there to unwind and disconnect so not a problem.

Good location, poor property

As soon as we opened the door, we knew we were in trouble. Place smelled very musty, and smell never dissipated. We would have tried drying the place out with the woodstove, but its stove pipe was very rusted, had a visible hole in it and appeared very unsafe. There were two electric heaters in the hall, poorly installed, one of which was too noisy to use. The bathroom lacked a working fan, so bathroom and house became damp when taking showers. We spent six nights, and when we left all of our clothes and suitcases smelled bad of mildew. Took two washings for our clothes to get mildew smell out.

We're really sorry to hear about your experience. Had you reached out to us when you first noticed we could have tried to get you moved to a different place. This rental is very popular and this is the first time we've heard of these issues. We'll investigate your complaints and take necessary action!

A wonderful place!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This place is absolutely perfect for a beach getaway. We went as a family of 3, and there was more than enough space. The little shower actually made the perfect bathtub for my 2 year old daughter, which was a pleasant surprise. Being able to walk to the beach AND walk to the little downtown with restaurants etc meant we hardly had to get in our car. The rental company was beyond hospitable- they provided us with freshly baked bread, a pack-and-play, and even a nightlight when I realized I had forgotten mine (a mom fail!). My only recommendation would be to get some little throw blankets for the living room, as Stinson Beach in general can be quite chilly. We are already plotting our return!

The best part about the house was the host, Highway One Properties. They were amazing, excellent communication and went out of their way to be accommodating with needs. The other best part is how close the home is to the beach just down the block. The unfortunate part was the Home was very old dish towels, and bath towels need to be replaced. It really needs to be remodeled. The kitchen was well stocked. I will definitely book with Highway One Properties again, but not this property.

Beach House Getaway

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The house couldn’t have been in a better location for my son, his wife, and their newborn baby. The entrance is right on a street that is just steps away from the beach. The close proximity to the water made it perfect for the family because they could have their dogs join them on their morning walks on the sand.

From the moment we arrived, the location captivated us with its beauty and convenience. The home itself was a gem, exceeding our expectations in every way. The spacious layout allowed for both communal gatherings and quiet moments of reflection.Our time with the grandkids was simply magical. The memories created during those days will forever hold a special place in our hearts.The house is conveniently located near the beach. A 3 minute walk and not on a bust street. The beach is dog friendly too!The best property management we have ever experienced! Very helpful and responsive. Thank you!In so many ways, this vacation home was perfect.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We love renting this little place. We were very grateful for the quick delivery of some pyrex to bake with. We still missed having any roasting pans. Cooking is a big part off our vacation. We always bring our own cookware - we don't care for the teflon set - but hope not to have to bring oven stuff too.
