This beautiful house in Stinson Beach completely exceeded our expectations, with breathtaking panoramic ocean views that made the entire stay unforgettable. We stayed here for the Miwok 100K race, and the location was absolutely perfect—just minutes from the start and finish, which made race day logistics incredibly easy. The home itself was even better than advertised—spacious, spotless, and extremely comfortable, with a beautifully stocked kitchen ideal for cooking and gathering. The quaint backyard and peaceful, private setting added to the overall experience, and communication was seamless and highly responsive throughout. We would very highly recommend this home to any friends or family, and we’re already hoping to return again soon!

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.

This was our second stay here and it was still exceptional. The place is bright, cheery, tastefully decorated/styled without being pretentious. It had everything we needed (and we cooked a bit). Owner is very responsive. We walked to the beach every day and the views were stunning. Loved being able to hear the ocean from our bed at night. The house made for a super relaxing retreat.
