    I spent more than two weeks here, and I agree with many other reviews: the property is beautiful, peaceful and spacious - as pictured, with large windows (and shades throughout), well-appointed kitchen and laundry, as clean as can be, private and secure. Host is onsite and helpful but not intrusive, and provided a wonderful selection of welcome snacks. Very close to downtown San Rafael. Near the top of a steep hill, but several choices for driving there.

    Have just finished my 2nd stay in this Vrbo and will definitely keep coming back. The bedroom is a nice size and the kitchen/dining room/living room space is nicely laid out. The communication with the owners, when needed, is spot but otherwise there is complete privacy. A thumbs up all the way around.

    The space was large and well appointed. Neighborhood was very quiet. I have already scheduled another stay here.

    This is a lovely place to stay in a lovely town. The owners, who are onsite but very respectful of privacy, are excellent. Felt very homey. Highly recommend.

    We had the perfect stay, which began with a lovely welcome note from the hosts. Every detail is well-thought-out and perfectly executed. From drinks in the frig to snacks that hit the spot for these weary, flight-delayed travelers, we felt well provided for in every way. We'll definitely be returning when the North Bay is in our travel plans again.

    Recently spent 4 nights at this great San Rafael property. Looks exactly as pictured & it was just lovely. Spacious & well equipped. Nice open living area with comfy sleep sofa. Master bedroom was huge with lots of storage. Parking on site. Hosts were very nice & responsive to questions. Highly recommend.

    This place was perfect for our needs. Quiet, private property. My wife and I rented this place to stay at during our visit for a wedding. Had everything we needed. Steve and Sue are gracious host, that supplied us with everything we needed or asked for, all the while respecting our privacy. So glad we booked this place. Would definitely recommend it.

    What a delight to arrive to such a charmingly appointed guest house. We had a nightmare flight to the Bay Area so the peace and quiet that met us was sorely needed. And what a treat to find a welcoming note, drinks in the frig, and a great assortment of snacks, which we quickly proceeded to devour. This was the perfect place to come back to after a series of lively reunions. We will most definitely stay again when we return!
