Our stay was perfect! The location was idea, we walked to surf everyday. In the evenings we'd walk over to town to grab fresh food for meals and BBQ in the yard. The house feels much more spacious inside, it's very well appointed and clean. The manager of the property, Terry was super helpful and very responsive to any inquiries we had. We loved it and will definitely be coming back.

We loved everything about this stylish little light-filled house in the heart of Bolinas! It was very comfortable for two couples, with easy access to town, the beach, and hiking trails. We also just loved sitting in the garden. Terry, the property manager, gave us a warm welcome and we look forward staying in the same house again - hopefully soon!
