Since we live near to the areas of Glenwood, Loch Lomand, and Peacock Gap, we have hosted many family members that are visiting their children and grandchildren. They enjoy the proximity to their family members and to these neighborhoods but yet return and recuperate from all the family gatherings. A plus for us is the many returning guests. We always look forward to seeing our guests again and again. We also like to think of our rental as a quiet get away for couples as well.
If you enjoy the wine country, we are within an hour away and also if the city is a draw, we are less than an hour away. The town of San Rafael is about three miles west of us and it has an amazing art movie house as well as a great supply of restaurants with various cuisines.
Our area is quiet, and next to a marsh where you can see many different types of sea birds. It is an easy walk to Loch Lomond yacht harbor where you can just sit and view Mt. Tam or the bay and its boats and sea birds.
Way better than any hotel, motel . Beautiful setting close to SF Bay, great views, a great place to walk, run, bike. Quiet secluded, beautiful garden to enjoy a leisurely dinner. The only negative was that the TV sound was turned off.
This darling cottage is strategically located for easy access to San Francisco, yet maintains a secluded and private experience in a densely populated area. The cottage is well appointed with comfortable amenities, it is quiet and offers a view of a small marina. The owners are very pleasant people who welcomed us like friends. They were very helpful in making suggestions for places to eat and places to visit, plus they have a beautiful garden that they share with their guests. We so much enjoyed our visit that we will stay here again whenever we want to go to San Francisco, or even just to enjoy the beautiful area of San Rafael. We highly recommend this place.
Easy check in process in a quiet relaxing neighborhood. Just a short drive or walk to the best market around, Andy's Market for any necessary supplies or prepared food. My daughter loved the pizza. I'd love to come back for another visit, we loved it. Thanks for thinking of all the supplies we could have ever needed. Loved it!!
We stayed for a little over two weeks to accommodate two high school graduations. The property was wonderful, and a nice neighborhood. The owner was very accommodating and the unit has everything you need. Five stars for both the property and the owner.
Nice and central to a lot of activities.
Our stay was pleasure and great location to explore.
This was a very cute, little cozy spot close to a lot of ocean beaches and fun cities. We stayed thanksgiving weekend and had a pleasant stay. We felt very safe in the neighborhood. This is very much an apartment in the sense that your neighbors can be heard, if that’s something you’re concerned about. We were not and it was still very private, so this was a delightful experience. Thanks to the hosts for providing such an excellent home away from home.
We enjoyed our stay in the cozy apartment on the bay. the were no surprises, we got everything we were expecting, and the neighborhood is very beautiful. Definitely drive up the road to see some amazing views of the north bay.
The property was clean and very comfortable. We had everything we needed. The host was very welcoming and made sure we had everything we needed. I would recommend this location.
This was a perfect place for the two of us. It is located in the lower level of the property owner's house. It is a nice, quiet place and very cozy. Communication with Elise was very easy and she was very friendly. She does have a young dog, but that was never an issue. We would stay there again if given the opportunity.
Elise and Paul were wonderful hosts and the reviews are accurate. I had to come to San Rafael to attend a memorial and almost booked a hotel. So glad I chose to stay at their place. Far better than a hotel. Clean, comfortable and the garden is very special. I was able to take a break from it all and sit outside to reflect. Andy's Market is a short walk where I was able to get breakfast. Loved their place.
Convenient, comfy and kind hosts. Definitely a place to visit again.
Just like a home away from home with everything you would want to have to relax after a busy day out enjoying the many outdoor activities available in Marin. We enjoyed two great days of hiking at Mt Tamalpais. Andy's Market is nearby and has an exceptional deli where we picked up the best deli sandwiches to take on our hikes! The Kitchen Table restaurant in downtown San Rafael was also great!
This is a one bedroom downstairs unit very close to central San Rafael. The unit was spotless, with everything you would need for a nice stay. It is near shopping and walking trails. There is a nice garden and off street parking. Elise and Paul were very helpful. We would and will stay there again.
What a magical , cozy place to visit beautiful California! Close to everything, yet outside the city and so convenient for nature lovers who like to hike, walk on the beach and be amazed by the glorious redwoods ! Elise & Paul are charming hosts. Their place is well equipped ~ great Wi-Fi, wonderful bed and the garden is a definite plus. Andy’s market within walking distance is a delight. I can’t say enough about our weeklong stay and we hope to return !!!
Apartment was comfortable. Garden is beautiful. Location is ideal
