About this property

MILL. VALLEY. MODERN

Enjoy the lower level of this architecturally stunning private gated end of cul-de-sac Mill Valley retreat. Completely separate from the main living areas of the house, where my partner and I live, the lower level has its own entrance and outdoor space. The family room and 2 larger bedrooms look out over the dedicated terrace, towards the pool, the bay and the San Francisco skyline.
The property is located minutes from the Golden Gate Bridge, the Marin Headlands and the ferry to SF, and just up the hill from Strawberry Village, offering multiple options for shopping and restaurants.
The world reknowned Napa and Sonoma wine regions are an easy day trip away.
Additional features of the property include a 75' lap pool, a full gym, a jetted hot tub, and a large mature, lush garden. While at the property, our guests enjoy exclusive use of the pool, gym and spa. We make every effort to be invisible, and to not be intrusive. We respect our guests’ privacy.

Fantastic experience! The space was clean and comfortable. We were in town from the Midwest for a family wedding and my spouse and myself, my sister in law and her spouse, and my brother in law and his girlfriend shared the space. The beds were very comfortable and the outdoor space is unmatched. We loved the pool area and lounge chairs, the view of the city is so beautiful in the morning. The neighborhood was beautiful, quiet, and we were close to a grocery store and Starbucks that came in handy for some refreshment.

Lovely Stay!

We met up with another couple for a weekend trip and had a lovely time at this VRBO. The hot tub was great and the pool was beautiful, but we only had time (and weather) for the hot tub. My one suggestion for the property is a more comfortable couch. Thank you!

February Break with Family of 4 and Grandparents

We had a wonderful stay at the apartment rental within this gorgeous modern home. The location was ideal with an incredible view of San Francisco and easy travel across the Golden Gate Bridge to city activities or into Mill Valley for excellent restaurants. We used the hot tub at least once a day and spent time relaxing and playing games inside. The living areas are small, but the apartment has everything you need!

Awesome property

My family had a great time and the house and amenities were outstanding! Gary and Jeff made the whole process very easy and to be honest we did not even know they were there the property is so well laid out. The only complaint we have is with the mattresses, especially in the second BR with the queen bed. Easy solution would be a mattress topper or just a new mattress but it definitely needs to be addressed. Overall a great unit to rent and you will not be disappointed with the views and the pool!

Beautiful property

Beautiful property with stunning views. Just as described. It was perfect for our girls-weekend to Napa/Sonoma and had everything we needed. The hosts even brought us a bottle of champagne to celebrate which was a lovely touch! We had an issue with the smoke alarms going off but our host was able to fix it for us. Also, beware, there are several stairs at this property so probably not best for those with any handicaps. Wish we would have had a chance to enjoy the pool and jacuzzi. All-in-all I highly recommend this listing if you need a place to stay in the area.

Apartment rental-not entire house

The location and property manager were fabulous, but this isn’t the entire house. I missed that when renting. The apartment is outdated, and smells like mothballs. The kitchen only has 2 electric burners because it’s a galley kitchen, so no full size fridge. Also, we weren’t told the kitchen had ants, so in a matter of an hour, food we left out to cool was no longer eatable. The shower head in the bathroom in the master sweet drips all night, so you have to leave it on the shower floor and there is mold in the washing machine which is in the galley kitchen. The gym was old and out dated, but the view was amazing, and the pool and hot tub were fabulous. If you don’t plan on spending much time at the rental, this is a good place to sleep, but had I known these little pointers before renting I would’ve paid the extra thousand to get the entire house somewhere else. Note the stairs are a pain when dragging up luggage and the couch is hard.

We thought everything was great except it was very warm and the air conditioning was not working. What made it bearable was the nights got down to low 50s. Otherwise the house was nice with a working pool, comfortable beds, working kitchen.
