Our 1500 sq ft. house is loft-style, built on a large rock with views of the Marin Mountains. Take pleasure in relaxing nights as you hear the crickets chirp and the rushing of the creek during the rainy months. Our house is a beautiful, tranquil place to unwind and enjoy everything that nature has to offer. On any given day, deer can be seen as close as 10 ft. from the outside deck.

Our house is nestled in the quaint town of Fairfax, CA which was just voted in 2011 as the ' Best Town in Marin' by the Pacific Sun.It is a quiet haven untouched by strip malls and corporate chains, yet it is close enough to the hustle and bustle of cities like San Francisco and Berkeley. A short distance a way are Mill Valley, Sausalito, Muir Woods, Mt. Tamalpais, Point Reyes, Stinson Beach & Napa.

Take advantage of picnicking in Deer Park, hiking/driving to the many lakes located near the house, strolling through the town of Fairfax, antique shopping in San Anselmo and exploring the other great cities, beaches & activities nearby. A few nights in Fairfax and you just may decide to stay!

We are walking distance to Deer Park Villa

I was disappointed to be misled by the description of the property as a quiet haven. It was definitely an adequate place to stay--the beds were comfortable and the fridge, stove, and dishwasher worked fine--but it was dusty, cobwebby, downright dirty in some places and definitely not quiet. It's fine to rent a home in a thriving, lively neighborhood; just don't call it a quiet haven so I know what to expect. We entered to a musty smell in the entry. Each room had artificial plants covered in dust and cobwebs. There was no screen in the lower bathroom window and no vent fan; opening the window for ventilation meant bugs flew in. The kitchen window did not open at all. (Opening windows and running the whole house fan was the only means of cooling.) The window tracks were filled with debris making them hard to slide open. It was hard to see the lovely views through the dirty windows. I had to rewash every dish & pan in the cupboards before use. Noise wise: with windows closed we could still hear barking dogs most of the day and into the night. Daily normal neighborhood noises included someone practicing their saxophone, chainsaws, leaf blowers, lawn mowers, shouting kids, construction, and trash trucks arriving at 5:30 am. A neighbor somewhere had a small dinner party on an outside deck and their conversation and laughter continued past midnight. Without any insulated windows or walls in the house, there was no sound barrier. On the plus side, I could walk to trails. Yay!

Hosts thought of everything. Location close to a gorgeous outdoor hiking spot and near the most darling town. Home is cozy with everything you would need. Highly recommend this home.

The house was well equipped and very homey, with comfortable beds and soft towels. And the shower was like a spa! Fairfax is a quaint town with good food and the neighborhoods were lovely. Misty, the owner, was very easy to reach and pleasant to work with. We had a great time and would do it again! Merilee

fantastic relaxing week spent there with my family, plenty of spaces, beautiful rooms nicely decorated. only (minor) issue was the lack of mobile network in the area, but wasn't a big deal as Wi-Fi worked very well.

The beds were very comfortable, the views were lovely and the home was clean. We enjoyed exploring the neighborhood too, we felt safe. Host was great to communicate with. We were concerned because we were traveling in the summertime and this home doesn’t have central AC. However, the bedrooms had ACs in them and so even tho the days in the common areas of the house were hot, we slept great in the cool bedrooms at night. In the mornings and at night, the common areas in the house cooled down too. The host left instructions on how best to use the fans in the house to cool everything down in the evening and we appreciated that. The town of Fairfax is cute and has great restaurants. Would love to visit again!

This property was not safe for toddlers the stairs, the yard that we were told not to go out on however, there was no gate stopping a young toddlers from walking right off onto a 30 foot drop. We did not even get to enjoy the deck as we kept it hidden so the kids will not get hurt. Due to the sleeping arrangements or whole entire family slept on the floor in the downstairs room which was extremely uncomfortable. When Mom decided to go upstairs with all the snoring and went to get into the bed in the morning found there was dead spiders in the bed. We were not impressed with the location, the binder full of rules or this rental.
