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!

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.

Incredible view. Beautiful home, comfortable and equipped with everything we needed. It’s a short walk to the center of town (market, fabulous restaurants, and the beach). It’s an even shorter walk to a trailhead connecting to the Mount Tam trail system. We look forward to staying here again.

About the host

Hosted by Jennifer

Host profile image
My husband and I purchased the lot in 2005 with excitement beyond belief. We actively started designing around some very strick guidelines and restrictions. In the end I believe we achieved a very nice product with his building skills and my artistic talents. You'll find unusual details throughout the home and my paintings on the walls.

Why they chose this property

We built our home at Stinson beach in 2005. Stinson Beach was a natural choice and had a long history for our families. My husband and I grew up going to Stinson either after school, with our families for holiday, and then later for family reunions bringing our kids. There is so much to do- walk/run the beach, swim, surf- board or body, sunbath, hike the fabulous trails, kayak the lagoon, relax, and the list goes on.
We feel very fortunate to have found this lot with the ability to build a simple but stylish home that serves many travelers.

What makes this property unique

The beauty of the beach, the sound of the waves crashing, the intimate neighborhood community, close to town for a stroll to dinner, near the town market, fabulous sunsets. You get the best of both worlds that Stinson has to offer- the beach but also the mountain!! The famed Dipsea Trail, majestic Matt Davis Trail just outside our door. Gorgeous sunsets, collecting shells, flying kites, building sand castles...............
