Tamalpais State Park, La Grande Maison serves as a tranquil home base with breathtaking views and reliable, high-speed Wi-Fi—all just a 25-minute drive from San Francisco.

You’ll love taking short walks across the street to the breathtaking Muir Beach Overlook, where you can catch stunning sunsets over the deep blue Pacific. Alternatively, enjoy leisurely strolls through the towering giant redwoods of world-famous Muir Woods, just three miles away. If you’re a wine enthusiast, the picturesque wine regions of Napa and Sonoma Counties are only an hour and a half drive up the road. Your host, a former resident of Sonoma County, is eager to share insider tips on their favorite wineries in the area. As one of our guests beautifully put it, "It's like staying at Lake Tahoe, but without the drive."

The Third Level Crow’s Nest
Guests have described sleeping in the Crow's Nest as akin to being in an adult-sized playhouse, and it’s easy to see why. This charming two-level retreat on the third floor features its own cozy loft, creating a unique and inviting space. The lower level boasts a single bed, while the loft offers a super-comfortable foam-topped single mattress nestled directly on the floor in traditional Japanese style.

Wedding?
We’ve hosted several weddings at La Grande Maison. Additionally, the Muir Beach Overlook, with its sweeping ocean views, is just a few steps across the street and is a perfect place for a wedding. Finally, the Pelican Inn hosts many weddings, as does Slide Ranch, both of which are within a 5-10 minute drive from the house.
Hiking
If you like hiking, the Owl Trail starts literally across the street from the house and runs north from the Muir Beach Overlook through dense chaparral with rangy views of the coast down to Slide Ranch. No need to drive to get to a wonderful hike. There are also a number of additional hiking trails in the Muir Beach area.
Muir Beach
The beach is a 5 minute drive down the hill, but if you’re feeling like a challenge it’s about a 25 minute walk down the hill. Going down is the easy part, while coming back entails a pretty good climb.
The Decks
The extensive decks on the back and side of the house provide outstanding views of Mt. Tamalpais and surrounding hills and valley. You’ll find a playhouse to keep the kids entertained, and enough places to sit to be able to enjoy great conversation and mesmerizing views. A four burner gas grill is ready for grilling up some great meals.
Climate
Living on the Pacific Coast means that we have a moderate climate for most of the year. There are usually only a handful of days during the year when it’s hot enough that air conditioning would be useful. As such, we don’t have air conditioning nor do the majority of homes in Muir Beach.
Dinner Parties
When we say no parties or events we mean that we don't want people renting the house solely for the purpose of throwing a big party. However, small get togethers such as inviting friends over for a dinner party or a small engagement party are perfectly fine.
Number of Guests
We limit the number of adult guests to 8, but allow up to 2 infants or children under the age of six.
Living on a mountain.
Since we live on a mountain side, there are 17 steps to get from the street level down to the house.
