2 Bedroom Cottage in Stinson Beach

An A+ Location, this cottage has quality amenities, and everything you'll need to enjoy a beach getaway! No need to drive once you park inside the gates. You'll walk everywhere. Conveniently located beside the village park with kiddie playground, and basketball court. The cottage is across from the Parkside Cafe/Snack Bar/Bakery/Marketplace with the best eats in town, in my opinion. Take a beach wagon, piled high with beach toys from the 'Red Shed', you'll be seated on the sand within 2 minutes!
There are 40+ wetsuits, boogie & surfboards, beach chairs, umbrellas, totes, towels, blankets, footballs, smash ball & soccer balls, and sand toys for the little ones.. Shoot hoops, or play pingpong in the neighboring park.
Lounge, Dine, and Relax on the back deck with 2 adjustable lounges, teak table, chairs, bench and a Mt. Tamalpais view. In the evening watch the stars come out after a sunset beach walk. There's a 3 burner propane Weber grill, and a well stocked corner grocer, if you want to bbq. Or, order a pizza (clam with tomatillo sauce is my favorite) and calamari from Parkside.
The Dipsea and Matt Davis Trailheads are steps away, opening up the entire Mt. Tamalpais Park, Muir Woods National Park, and Golden Gate National Recreation Area to hikers. Or, walk the entire 2 mile length of Stinson & Upton Beach to the inlet of Bolinas Lagoon.
Bring the binoculars, and view migratory and resident shore birds. Flocks of pelicans, terns, cormorants, herons, egrets and many more visit or reside on the lagoon, and seashore. You may see migrating whales pass by in late fall heading to mexico, returning north in the spring with their young.. Harbor seals routinely sleep side-by-side along the exposed Bolinas Lagoon sand spit during low tide. There are many places to park along the lagoon to enjoy the peaceful comings and goings of wildlife. Bring beach chairs and a picnic. You may even see the resident family of river otters hunting along the shore for fish, shellfish & crabs. There's always plenty to do!
The cottage is 1 level, sunny & bright. The Kitchen/Great Room has a large butcher block island with propane gas stove, overlooking the living area. You can view the large, wall mounted, smart TV with family and friends during meal preparation. The well appointed kitchen has a Bosch Dishwasher, Fisher Paykel Refrigerator, microwave oven, gas stove, quality cookware and dinnerware.
Primary bedroom has desk & chair, full length bench, and a large closet with a folding infant crib. Both the primary and secondary bedrooms, have black out curtains, featherbeds and down comforters on the queen beds. . Very comfortable and cozy sleeping....
There is on-demand hot water, 2 modern electric wall heaters and good lighting. An outside shower, on the back fence, has H/C water for rinsing off after a dip in the ocean, or before using the spa. The full bath has a shower over the tub. There is a full size Washer & Dryer, that are stacked in a closet.
Parking is for 1 Car inside gated driveway. Abundant on-street parking available for larg SUV vehicles.
Owner lives in the back cottage, parks beside your vehicle, and has a private fenced yard & back gate.

Summary: Linda was an exceptional host, kind, fun, generous, and so easy to communicate with. She even dropped off a loaf of her favorite bread just so we could try it, which was such a thoughtful touch.The house itself couldn’t be in a better location: just a 2-minute walk to the beach, across the street from the best bakery/restaurant/snack bar in town, and a 1-minute walk to a playground and local food. Exceptionally decorated, it has everything you could possibly need for a perfect beach stay.The home is stocked with toys, beach chairs, boogie boards, board games, wetsuits for kids, and more, all available for guests to use. The outdoor hot/cold shower was a special treat after days at the beach.We truly couldn’t have enjoyed our stay any more. It’s the perfect beach house in every way!

Summary: What a lovely little cottage!!! It was so neat clean, bright and HAPPY!! Linda, was very knowledgeable about all the things available to explore. It is all so RICH in beauty. The cottage is right in the little town of Stinson. We literally walked across the street for dinner. It was especially nice to get coffee and pastries every morning at the Parkside Cafe. We had a wonderful time and hope to visit again soon.

Summary: Can't beat this cottage for proximity to beach and restaurants. Safe, gated and fenced property surrounded by fruit trees, flowering bushes. Quiet!. Walk to grocery market, All the supplies, towels, chairs, etc. you need for a day at the beach. 30 minute drive to Point Reyes National Seashore.

Summary: We have been visiting Stinson for 20 years and while its popularity has grown over time it feels like home even though its no longer our secret little beach town. This cottage is so perfectly located to enjoy all the best things in Stinson. Most importantly it’s super close to the beach! The park is literally next door and the parkside snack bar and restaurant across the street. The house has way more amenities than your usual vrbo. Kitchen is perfectly stocked for making meals and there is a nice barbecue and back deck. Our favorite was the beach shack with so many things for the day at the beach. We had a great time as a family, boogie boarding and loving the sun! Once the city calmed down for the night we could hear the waves from the master bedroom window. The host was very friendly and clear on expectations. We will be glad to visit again as soon as possible.

Summary: Unique, precious property with instant access to wonderful Stinson Beach and the local markets. Linda proved to be a warm, engaging, and knowledgeable host. She promptly notified us of a belonging my partner left behind, and will be mailing it to us. We look forward to returning before the end of summer.
Brett B. Jun 28, 2025 07:21:16 PM
Summary: Tucked away and hidden by lush garden, the little cottage was the perfect get away for our family.
