Warm & wonderful home & location!
Simply one of the best VRBO homes we have ever enjoyed! Both the location and amenities to be found inside and outside were outstanding. There’s lots of room to enjoy curling up alone with a good book, for sharing time with friends/family on various outdoor patios or in the many warm and inviting rooms inside the home.

Wonderful home close to the sand on a quiet street
We loved this house. It was perfect for two families with kids and in addition to being super close to the beach, had at home entertainment (ping pong table and hot tub) for the kids on the cloudy days. The outdoor space is very comfortable to hang out and the indoors was big enough to handle all of us too. The beds were very comfortable as well, which is always a plus. We would stay here again.

Family get together
Great location close to downtown and stores. The beach is a couple doors down. Having the ocean breeze and the sound of the surf coming through the screen door at night brings back memories. My family grew up at Stinson Beach and it was the perfect location to have our family reunion. The house was everything we wanted and more thank you.

Perfect Family Get Away
This home has it all for a family vacation - kitchen is stocked, plenty of sleeping space with extremely comfortable beds, big yard to hang in with lots of comfy lounge chairs etc. and great grill. And the location could not be better - takes all of 30 seconds to walk to the beach from the front yard. Love this place!

Perfect for families
This well-maintained property is well suited for semi-large gatherings. In addition to spacious indoor areas, the outdoor kitchen, dining deck, hot tub, hammocks and ping pong table bring it to the next level. We’re hoping to make this an annual tradition.

We have stayed at several houses at Stinson Beach and this is our favorite. Cozy, convenient, well appointed and comfortable and it has plenty of room to socialize both inside and out. I’d like to keep it a secret but the lovely hosts deserve all the kudos.

Wonderful!
The house is great and has everything you could want. 2 houses back from the beach, friendly neighbors and in an awesome location. The house is as pictured, comfortable beds, lots of towels and kitchen stuff. Karen was super communicative and responsive both before we arrived and once we were there. Would 100% stay again.

Grandpa's Birthday
Family trip for Grandpa's Birthday. Great house. Close to the beach. Everything you would want. The owner is a bit too involved. When I rent a vacation home, I really want no to limited contact with the owner. She didn't answer questions directly - always went off on another tangent. When I asked about early check in, she should have just said it wasn't available rather than string us along keeping us tethered to the property - Waiting. It is a very nice house. Good for a large family gathering. I, personally, did not enjoy the interactions with the owner.

Wonderful getaway
This home was perfect for our quick weekend getaway with our grown daughters. The house had everything we needed - incredibly stocked kitchen (kitchen aid mixer, parchment paper, spices...), games, hot tub, fire place.... Karen was great with communication. Our only complaint was our stay wasn't long enough. :)

Stinson at its Best
We just enjoyed our third stay at this wonderful home and we all left feeling grateful for the opportunity to enjoy wonderful Stinson Beach and to be so comfortable and so content day and night throughout the stay. The outdoor area is huge, kitchen is well stocked with everything you need to prepare great meals, the beds are all incredibly comfortable, and the living space is super comfortable and accommodated our family of (9) with no problem. We hope to be back!
