Ocean by Day Stars at Night
I needed a retreat and this was the perfect spot❤️ A lovely home, clean and well positioned in Stinson. I was in the ocean during the day and watching stars from the deck of the master bedroom at night. So peaceful and quiet with all of the accoutrements I needed! Thank you Jennifer and team

Excellent vacation
Our family of 3 (2 adults and an 8-yr old) stayed for a week here at Stinson Beach and loved every minute of it. Location was great, the house was clean, tastefully/minimally decorated with a modern relaxed vibe, and had everything we needed - the owner puts nice attention to details. The views were spectacular and we enjoyed some awesome sunsets and sunrises. Of course, we got out to the beach nearly every day, hiked Muir Woods and even made it into the city one day to visit friends and the Cal Academy of Science for our daughter. Very relaxing. Hope to do it again next year!

Love this house
This was our second long stay at this house, and it does not disappoint! The location is killer, the layout is thoughtful, and all the details are in place. Our favorite things are the many windows that provide light and views, the trailhead at the end of the block that feels like a special secret way into the hills, and the beautiful art and photographs that offer a sense of place and history. We'd stay forever if we could.

Fabulous view of the Pacific
This spot is a perfect place to stay in Stinson Beach. So much to do in the area and walking on the beach for hours restored my health after a very long, cold winter in the northeast.
