Immaculate, spacious and well appoointed
Have just finished my 2nd stay in this Vrbo and will definitely keep coming back. The bedroom is a nice size and the kitchen/dining room/living room space is nicely laid out. The communication with the owners, when needed, is spot but otherwise there is complete privacy. A thumbs up all the way around.

This place was perfect for our needs. Quiet, private property. My wife and I rented this place to stay at during our visit for a wedding. Had everything we needed. Steve and Sue are gracious host, that supplied us with everything we needed or asked for, all the while respecting our privacy. So glad we booked this place. Would definitely recommend it.

Serenity Above San Rafael
What a delight to arrive to such a charmingly appointed guest house. We had a nightmare flight to the Bay Area so the peace and quiet that met us was sorely needed. And what a treat to find a welcoming note, drinks in the frig, and a great assortment of snacks, which we quickly proceeded to devour. This was the perfect place to come back to after a series of lively reunions. We will most definitely stay again when we return!

You'll feel at home here.
This apartment was perfect for our stay, well-appointed with interesting decorative features. The owners were attentive and thoughtful. A welcome note and snacks were waiting when we arrived. The kitchen was well equipped including spices and coffee. The washer & dryer was a plus and a big bonus for us was the use of the Tesla charger overnight. Loved the original outdoor artwork. San Rafael's location makes it convenient to the city or head north to Muir Woods or wine county.

Peaceful retreat
My friend and I spent a few days in this lovely and very comfortable space. The setting was beautiful and it was a great central location for visiting Muir Woods, Napa, Point Reyes and Tomales Bay. The hosts have created a peaceful retreat for their guests. Highly recommend!
