Thanks Angela2nd time at this beach cottage-we stayed twice as long this time. We had 80 degree weather the whole time and we were able to get into the ocean and play in the surf-haven’t donethat in 30 years. Cold mornings with crackling fires-beautiful long walks on the beach and swimming-it was a dream.Kris M

Bring your binoculars to enjoy the truly spectacular view even more! Also pack (or plan to buy) extra supplies in case the “starter supplies” don’t last (TP, paper towels, plastic wrap, coffee filters, etc.). We also prefer to bring our drinking water. And for all those Tesla owners: There’s now a Tesla Supercharging station at Olema House, about a 20-minute drive north on Highway 1.

One of my favorite places on the planet. Stinson Beach is heaven, and this beachfront home can’t be beat for beach access, views, and coziness. The wood burning fireplace is the cherry on top!

This cottage is in a spectacular location. It has so much potential…..the stay was underwhelming, but still decent because this cottage sits directly on the sand at Stinson Beach. It could be so much more…
