Beautiful spot - very convenient.

We had a beautiful stay, it's so nice to sit on the deck and have such an uninterrupted view. You can easily walk to a really good bakery and a couple bars/restaurants. Kitchen and bath are very small but we were mostly so that did not matter - view from the Queen bed is outstanding. We would definitely stay here again.

Perfectly located for a friend getaway including my pup. Right on a dog friendly beach, it was convenient for daily walks to town for delicious treats. Hostess Angela was super responsive to an issue we had with the water heater and had it repaired the next day. I would love to return to this beachfront gateway

Gorgeous beachfront

Stinson is our magical spot and we were so happy to find a cute BEACHFRONT property that is reasonably priced, walking distance to town and dog friendly. We love the master bedroom- can watch the waves while cozied up in bed.

Best location for a beach vacation

My husband and I had our son and granddaughter staying with us. The access to the beach right out our door was so perfect for my sand loving, wave hopping preschooler!The kitchen was sufficient for our meals that were prepared as we went. It is within walking distance to downtown Stinson, where we enjoyed latte’s and treats. My son was able to crab fish right out our front door, and we were thrilled to be able to enjoy the fruit of his labor. Perfect!

Wonderful stay!

PERFECT little place! We will be back. The views are amazing, the bed is the most comfortable I've ever slept on away from home, and the location can't be beat. There is a lovely deck, but if you want to sit on the sand, bring your own beach chairs.

Beach Front White Water View

Lovely spot to relax in right on the beach, views of varied beach acivies: walking, surfing, kites, jogging — and for surfers, you are right there! Park Side Cafe has really upgraded, superb bakery, excellent chef. Breakers Cafe also very good. Bookstore and library close at hand, and Mt. Tam is just across thge street with world class coastal view trails and redwoods. Stinson Beacch Market is well-stocked — including fresh vegetables — and has friendly staff members.

Best Vacation Ever

We loved everything about our stay at this sweet beach house. It was perfect for our family of four and Angela was just as lovely as could be. Our two young sons were delighted to roll right out of the house on to the sand and my husband and I were in heaven every night falling asleep to the sound of the waves crashing. We are already talking about making reservations for next year. Thank you Angela! We'll be back soon.

Stinson beach vacation

Cozy beach cottage with 5 star views and one star amenities - no hand soap, dish soap, dishcloths, washcloths, beach towels, etc. I had to request toilet paper and soap from the property owner. Basically BYO everything if you plan to stay here as supplies in town are extremely expensive

About the host

Hosted by Angela Rubin

Host profile image
Our goal is to make you feel welcome and relaxed for your vacation. Whether you elect to play in the sun, try boogie boarding, hike mountain trails or enjoy taking time alone our house has what you need.
Decorations are European in style and the furniture is kid-friendly and very comfortable with designer touches everywhere. This is comfortable oceanfront living at its best with modern amenities where you can have a healthy day, a restful evening and a sound night's sleep.

Why they chose this property

When we discovered Stinson Beach we couldn't believe that such a lovely little town could remain so unspoiled. Although only 30 mins from Mill Valley it remains a refuge from the real world for all who come and stay. Owner is close by (next door) and available to answer questions or help to plan your outings. West Marin is such a special place and there's so much to do here, we feel very blessed to be able to share this amazing place.

What makes this property unique

Ocean Front - view the dolphins playing and hear the sound of the waves breaking while you lie in bed. Watch whales as they blow and surface. Enjoy all the unique benefits of being able to see the Ocean from your bed. There's nothing like watching the sunset over the Ocean or seeing the light change throughout the day. Truly a wonderful spot for relaxing and viewing nature's wonders.
