Charming house in a charming town, Casa Cerini

Set just a block away from the heart of this quaint little Marin County town, Casa Cerini offers a wonderful place to relax and plan your activities. Within minutes you are in Dillon beach and the wine country starts just 20 minutes away. Petaluma and Sebastopol are conveniently less than 30 minutes away. The adorable 2 bedroom house offers a spacious living room, formal dining room, roomy kitchen and a wonderful deck and backyard behind the house with good privacy to enjoy a dip in the hot tub or a quiet meal outdoors. Both bedrooms boast comfortable queen beds and TVs. There is a fireplace and a large TV in the living room and the formal dining room seats up to 8 people. The kitchen is well equipped and includes a coffee station with a machine that can make pots by drip or K-Cups which are provided.

The 19th century town of Tomales still looks much as it did at the turn of the 20th century. There is a small market, amazing bakery and deli. saloon, the William Tell house restaurant; History Museum; homemade sausage sandwich shop and more.

Please see our 5StarVR site for information about our personal chefs, caterers, massages, Yoga instructors & personal trainers as well as great information about local restaurants & wineries and fun things to do in the area.

Luxurious linens are also provided. Hot tubs are heated at no additional charge all year. All houses are non-smoking indoors.

This is an amazing property for family and friends to gather but it is NOT a party house! Amplified music is not allowed outdoors at vacation rentals in the County and there are cameras that monitor parking areas and decimal meters that alert us to excessive noise. Quiet time for this County is between 10:00 PM and 8:00 AM. Groups that abuse these rules will be subject to immediate eviction and could be subject to large fines and potential legal action.

We feel so comfortable in this house. It is so clean (the cleaning goddess needs to make big bucks), the beds and furniture are so comfy, and the overall vibe is so cozy. Great neighborhood, in an idyllic location.

Perfect location
The house had every amenity you could think of and the kitchen was so well stocked with everything! It was only 8 minutes to Dillon Beach and a block from town and the best bakery ever! We are definitely going to return! We loved the house and Tomales.

Charming property
Our stay at Casa Cerini was excellent! Location was perfect for us as we had a family wedding to attend at The Haven. The Route One Bakery is a block away and it was wonderful as well. The beds were very comfortable and inviting after a long few days. House was clean and had everything we needed. We will be back again to stay and enjoy the beautiful coastline soon!!

Nice memorial getaway
Very small community with some surprises. We found a busy and lovely bakery right at the corner. There is not much going on in the neighborhood, but that's what we wanted: a peaceful and relaxing stay.

Lovely & Tranquil Retreat
Very sweet home with vintage bones and modern, comfortable furnishings. We loved the prace & quiet, waking up with coffee, and the sounds of birdsong, roosters and mooing cows from the hot tub. :) Hope to return soon!

Wonderful girls trip!
Friends from college came together for two days and enjoyed the wonderful Casa Cerini. We cooked dinner, used the barbecue, and hung out in the beautiful craftsman house, sat on the front porch enjoying bakery items from the nearby bakery. It was a wonderful time!

Scenic Getaway
This house was amazing in every way. The house had everything we needed plus more. The hot tube was amazing and I enjoyed that most of the nights. The area was amazing and the views on the drives were just wow! I would recommend this house to anyone and we will hopefully be back again.

Fantastic stay!
We chose to stay in Tomalas for a weekend basketball tournament at the high school. The location was close to the school and it was a cozy home to retreat to throughout the day. We did have a situation that required the owners to come to the home immediately and they did without skipping a beat. We would gladly stay again if offered the opportunity!

Tomales treasure
Beautifully restored craftsman style home. Near central Tomales and great bakery and general store. Close to many fun things to do, Dillon Beach, Nicks Cove, Farmer's Market in Point Reyes (summer) and all the State and County Parks. House was lovely, well-equipped.

Memorial day weekend
Thank you for a wonderful stay at your house! The house is cozy, indeed charming and welcoming. The amenities were easy to find, everything is clean and spotless. The desk was such a plus: our kids were able to finish their homework from missing school on Friday. The beds were comfortable. I loved the freshness and softness of the linens. It truly felt like home away from home. Thank you again and until next time!

Great spot minutes from the coast
We loved our stay in this beautiful home! It was less than 5 minutes to walk to the bakery, playground and general store in tamales and the beach was just a short drive away. The home itself was clean and spacious. Plenty of games, both board games and lawn games, hot tub which we used plenty, and a nice fire pit. Highly recommend for a nice relaxing NorCal vacation.

Great location at a great home
Our family of four were blown away by this home. It was perfectly situated in the center of all our activities (beach, farm tours, and wilderness hikes). The house was immaculate, updated, and spacious. More importantly, you had walking access to restaurants and the general store. We highly recommend it for any family of 6 or less looking for R&R.

Delightful!
We were in the area for a Bioluminescent Kayaking Tour. Casa Cerini was a delightful stay that was close the the launch at Nick's Cove/Miller Boat Launch. We got the last few days of the warm fall weather and were able to enjoy it out on the porch and patio! The pictures of the house looked beautiful, and it was much nicer in person! Thank you so much for a wonderful stay!

Casa Cerini
It was a great stay with my family. From the friendly neighborhood, and asking distance stores and restaurants. The hot tub was a huge hit with my whole family. Thanks for the amazing stay! We are looking to make it a tradition every summer to come back and get away from the heat! ❤️

Uncle Dave's Celebration of Life
Our stay at Casa Cerini was bittersweet. We were in town for my uncle's memorial (the bitter part). Having this cozy, comfortable, homey place to retreat back to at the end of the day was such a blessing (the sweet part)! We plan on staying again whenever we return to town to visit family.

Great house, great location...
The house is lovely and well suited for a couple or small family. Highway 1 is close by with access to all sorts of wonderful things. At night it gets quiet and you can hear the birds (including a family of owls that lives nearby), sometimes the local cows, and sometime a neighbor playing the flute. Tomales is a great little village with Route One Bakery and also interesting houses and gardens you can view walking around. Dillon Beach is just a few miles away and even a day trip into San Francisco or Napa is completely do-able. Thumbs up! Great place to stay.

Home Away From Home
I already left you a rave review on the property management site. Thank you for providing an immaculate house, in a quiet neighborhood with my comforting NorCal fog. We dropped the last kid at SSU and your characterful home with the softest, most comfy beds and amazing recliners and well equipped kitchen were so soothing to our souls. I met the beautiful human who cleans your house and told her how utterly amazing she is and how much I appreciated her hard work. Thanks to all for great home away from home. We plan on making you our base when we return to visit boy! <3

Lovely House - more than our expectation
We love our stay here. Location is perfect, so serene and beautiful the area, close to Point Reyes. The house is clean, great amenities with hot tub, washer/dryer. The host, Randy has prepared the house in guests in mind for sure....all the small details that make it so comfortable for guests to stay in the house, for example: you will find the phone/ipad charger available in main living room and master living room (how many times you travel and forgot to bring your charger and struggle to find where to get one) :) The hot tub was turned on when we check-in. House is clean & better than picture. All the check-in/check-out instructions are very clear too. Would love to come back & stay here when we have another chance. Thank you Randy for making the house so comfortable for guests to stay.
