Historic Charm & Sustainable Living

This sanctuary is part of an original Mill Valley home, celebrated for its sunny aspect and unique character. Your space is the lower level of a large house. The host lives upstairs with her husband and child, and you will hear the pitter-patter of footsteps above. Your apartment has its own entrance, parking, and outdoor spaces, and we strive to respect your privacy to the highest degree.

A Sanctuary with a Deep History

The Enchanted Waterfall Sanctuary is more than just a peaceful retreat—it’s part of a rich historical tapestry connected to the land once owned by the legendary philosopher Alan Watts.

A key figure in the Human Potential Movement, Watts inspired many with his teachings on consciousness, personal growth, and the interconnectedness of all things. The energy of these ideas still resonates in this space, offering guests a chance to reflect, rejuvenate, and experience a deeper connection with Nature and themselves.

Watts' legacy of embracing mindfulness, creativity, and holistic living continues to inspire the peaceful and artistic spirit of this space.

Whether you’re seeking to unwind in nature, tap into your creative potential, or explore a deeper sense of well-being, the Enchanted Waterfall Sanctuary provides the perfect environment. Surrounded by the natural beauty of Mill Valley and with its historical ties to Watts' philosophy, this retreat is designed to nourish both body and soul.

Perfect for Nature Lovers & City Explorers

Whether you're here to work remotely, explore the natural wonders of Marin County, or enjoy a peaceful retreat, the Enchanted Waterfall Sanctuary offers a perfect balance of nature and city access. Located just 17 minutes from San Francisco, you’ll enjoy the best of both worlds.

Upon booking, I’ll send you a personalized guide with recommendations for hiking trails on Mount Tamalpais, the best coffee spots, and dining options in Mill Valley.

We take pride in sustainability—the Enchanted Waterfall Sanctuary is powered by 100% renewable energy, including wind and solar, for a truly eco-friendly experience.
