About this property

Cozy Studio 2 Blocks from Downtown Mill Valley

PLEASE CHECK CALENDAR TO SEE IF YOUR DATE IS AVAILABLE. I keep it current. Thanks!

NEWLY REMODELED!! Cozy furnished studio in-law unit two blocks from Downtown Mill Valley - a beautiful town a 20 minute drive north of San Francisco across the Golden Gate Bridge. Restaurants, Mill Valley Outdoor Art Club, cafes, shopping, trail heads, movie theater, comedy club/live theater all within walking distance. You can't beat the location.

This is a one room unit with hardwood floors, 1 king sized bed, kitchenette with mini-fridge, sink, microwave, coffee maker, and table for 2, bathroom with shower. This studio is a ground level unit in a 3 unit building with a separate entrance. Flat screen TV and DVD player, wireless internet access and street parking available. Pack and play crib available upon request.

It's perfect for parents visiting their children/grandchildren in the area, or for wedding guests attending the Outdoor Art Club. With nice linens, plush towels, it's much more welcoming and homey than a hotel room.

Easy driving access to San Francisco sight-seeing, and to beautiful Marin scenery and wildlife. 15 minutes to the Muir Woods National Monument old growth redwood forest, and to beautiful Muir Beach. 5 minute drive to Golden Gate National Recreation Area hiking trails, including Tennessee Valley Road trail, where an easy 1 3/4 mile hike takes you to the beach. Mountain biking nearby and kayaking tours of the bay available in Sausalito. 8 to 10 minute drive to downtown Sausalito - explore stores in charming downtown Mill Valley, or walk by the bay on the Sausalito marina. There are ferries to SF leaving from Sausalito and Larkspur.

A 45 minute drive takes you to wine country in Sonoma or Napa, or to the Point Reyes National Seashore.

The unit is on the ground floor (no stairs) of a 2 story, 3 unit building. The backyard is not available for use because full-time tenants have exclusive use of it.

There is a family living upstairs so expect to hear some footsteps above when they are home.

Sorry, no pets allowed.

We also require a $75 cleaning fee for the studio for every reservation.

Lovely, quiet stay in an adorable neighborhood
My husband and I loved our stay here. The location was a perfect spot for us to easily hike the Muir Woods National Park, explore San Francisco, and also pop up to some wineries. We also enjoyed the ability to walk to restaurants and shops. Would absolutely recommend this studio to anyone traveling to the area! Thanks for the lovely stay.

Mill Valley weekender
Great spot to access the very lovely town of Mill Valley and its surrounds. It was a little hard to locate the entrance, but eventually discovered it. Especially loved the little kitchenette area in the unit. Shower is super small, sunlight is a bit blocked by the fence and bushes outside the window, but it really worked for the long weekend we were there and using it as a base camp for our activities. Everything was very clean, bed and bedding comfortable. Owner was responsive when we informed her about noise from the apartment upstairs when we first arrived -- didn't hear anything much the rest of the time. Definitely would stay there again.

We stayed here for a couple of nights while attending a wedding in Outdoor Art Club. Studio is cozy, clean and in excellent location near downtown Mill Valley. It was cheaper than most hotel offerings and just as cozy.

Mill Valley visit
The studio apartment was everything advertised. Clean and Comfortable. I walked to Peets each morning for delicious coffee and conversation. A great base to visit Muir Woods and Stinson Beach. Close to food markets and anything else you might need. Sausalito and San Francisco a short drive. Easy transaction with good communications.

Convenient and spacious
I stayed here 4 nights. The room was, as advertised, two blocks from downtown Mill Valley. In other words, super well located. It's a no-frills apartment but spacious with lots of closet and drawer space and an extremely comfortable firm bed. Microwave and refrigerator worked perfectly for my needs. Also I should add that communication with the property manager was very quick, clear and helpful.

Comfortable and convenient
We were very pleased with our accommodations. The studio was clean, the bed very comfortable, and the towels plentiful. It had an excellent location for us---within easy walking distance to our daughter & son-in-law's home, so we got to spend lots of time with our adorable 5 1/2 month old granddaughter while still allowing them and us to have some privacy. We were also conveniently located to downtown, so just a short walk took us to wonderful cafes like Champagne and The Depot for outdoor breakfast or lunch. Toast also has excellent (indoor) casual dining. For special indoor or outdoor dining, El Paseo is very good as is Piazza d'Angelo. So many fun shops, markets and activities! We hope to be back again soon!

About the host

We have been living in the bay area for the past 15 years, in San Francisco for 14 of them so please ask us for insider tips if you plan to visit SF. We got married in Mill Valley, adopted our dog in Mill Valley, and are now back living here with 2 kids. I do marketing consulting for natural food and beverage companies and love to play tennis and hike. My husband is a software engineer who loves kite surfing and playing the drums. We have two boys who love to swim, and ride around with us on our bikes.

Why they chose this property

We bought this studio so we could accommodate family and friends when they come to visit us and rent it out when it isn't being used.

What makes this property unique

2 blocks from downtown Mill Valley, 15 minute drive to Muir Woods, 20 minutes to San Francisco, 45 minute drive to Napa. Really, you can't beat the location.
