About this property

Unique private access studio with outdoor spa in paradise.

Perched on a hill-top of thirteen wooded acres—dark night skies and amazing hikes/view--22 miles north of San Francisco in the midst of tranquil paradise. A most unique and isolated getaways in the Bay Area, yet WiFi and cell coverage. Scenic, windy and at times bumpy paved one mile drive off of Lucas Valley road. Down 24 steps from unit is a gorgeous hot-tub, outdoor shower, iceboat, seasonal outdoor fire pit may be started by owner. Sauna may be used with reservation and usage fee. Designer furniture, down comforter, beautiful art, high-end linens. A spacious studio, and we can bring in an extra single bed that can be requested.

The space
This is a large studio with work area and great wifi. Private entrance and deck. There’s a microwave, drip coffee, coffee, tea, plates, spoons, etc—mini-frig and utensils; but no kitchen. New Casper memory foam mattress. We provide extra heaters so occupants can control the temp during cold season. Best of the place: star gazing at night from the hot tub which is 24 steps from the unit, or watching hawks circle the grounds at eye level. We are on well water.

Want a private deck and floor to ceiling windows? Check out our other unit listed on VRBo at the same location.

Guest access
We have ample parking and are located 25 minutes from the closest downtown.

Other things to note
Our place is in Marin (Nicasio) and up a beautiful one mile drive through a wooded area. Although we are not far from civilization, it feels very remote and amazingly beautiful. Not that remote, but once you come you may want not to leave...
Some ambient noise is possible from main house.

The room is ideal for two, but for a small charge we can bring in a roll away bed and extra linens for a child, or extra person, or if you need two beds. Please ask and pay ahead of time so our cleaners are aware.

Also, it may be possible to book a two-hour early check-in or check out for $25. If desired, please request and we will ask the cleaner.

We know people come to our place to relax, and we respect this.

We never could find this location!We drove around until it was dark trying to find this place!! Internet was spotty at best, as was phone.I call the phone number, but could only leave a message. By 6 pm today, Sunday, no one has returned this call!!We ended our next day plans with our friends, who were in rv's and drove almost 3 hours back home!Never again!!!

Beautiful spot

I was in the area for the Point Reyes Bird Festival. The unit is in an idyllic spot surrounded by hills and forest. It is a couple miles off the main road on a steep winding private road but worth the trip. I would recommend arriving during daylight.

The property area is beautiful out side. The day we arrived the hot tub was unclean and not functional. I let the owner know and it was fixed the next day. Sauna was working 1st day but did not work there after. Inside unit 1: small refrigerator was unplugged and dusty on top. I had to clean it. The quilt on the bed was lumpy and overly heavy. No bowls available so had to use glass cups to eat granola in the morning. Fridge wouldn't freeze ice packs. So dont bring ice cream there unless you plan to eat all of it right then. Over all i think they could do alot better. Better decor, put a couple games in there as theres no TV. It wasnt a bad stay but i think they could do better.

Beautiful, peaceful location and it was a very short drive to Pt Reyes. My only suggestion for improvement would be to supply coffee cups. We would definitely stay there again.

Beautiful location

This property is in a stunning location with a beautiful view. The place was spotlessly clean and had everything you need for a comfortable stay. The hosts were super friendly and helpful and made sure I had everything I needed. Highly recommend staying here if you’re visiting the area. Lots of great hiking near by and close enough to restaurants and other activities.

Beautiful Room in mountains

The room is beautiful and pleasant. The drive up is steep and rough in places but manageable. It was cloudy and we got in late so we didn't get to enjoy the hot tub under the stars.

My friend and I enjoyed staying at this Studio in Paradise. The place was convenient to where we were going and the accommodations are nice. We especially enjoyed the hot tub and the view. The host is super nice. The unit was equipped for two separate people to stay and we are very grateful we chose this place.

Nicasio guest room

The property was up a secluded windy road. Really felt isolated and beautiful. Lovely frog and nature sounds at night. Raining while we stayed so didn’t try out the hot tub, but bet it would have been nice!
