Cute cottage, few steps to beach.

Lovely house. The most comfortable beds! Well stocked kitchen. Hot tub and outside patio were great for late afternoon lounging after a day at the beach (which was steps away, btw) Owners were great with communication and lovely to deal with. We stay in Stinson a lot. We like this area of the beach and this is one of the better houses with beach access. We will be back!

Clean & cozy. Comfortable and so relaxing. The beach is so close and easy access to get to. Love that dogs are welcomed and the house had everything we needed…I will be returning 💯

Comfortable stay for 4 adults just steps from the beach . Walk to town for a great meal and drinks right off the beach and breathtaking hiking views close by !

We booked this stay with the hopes of leaving the valley heat and enjoying time at Stinson Beach and the surrounding area. We brought our dog and all three of us enjoyed our stay and the amenities inside and outside. The property is well maintained and it is evident that the owners care about their rental and want visitors to enjoy their stay. Very clean and comfortable. The king size bed was a dream to sleep on and the quality of the bed coverings was excellent! Karen was excellent to work with and very accessible, friendly, and helpful.

This is our second time and it’s a cozy cottage for 3 generations. Everything you need with a nice private backyard. We like being close to the beach and it’s perfect for that. Stinson gets cold even in the summer so bring your jackets. Also, there used to be beach chairs and towels but I forgot to bring all but two beach chairs. So don’t forget to bring your beach chairs, beach equipment and also beach towels. Also, don’t forget to bring coffee. There is a coffee machine but you need to bring your own coffee and condiments such as hot sauce, olive oil etc. They have salt and pepper and basic spices. Sharing one bathroom sucks but it’s fine and having a hot tub is great. Karen is very responsive! She has a cute book library and I left a few I finished reading. Thanks for everything Karen!!!!

Karen's property was just as described and looked even better in person than in the pictures. The kitchen was well stocked and the beds were very comfy. The outdoor spaces were great for sitting and reading/relaxing. The house was clean and it was an easy walk to the beach at the end of the block. Thanks for offering your beach cottage for vacation stays. We had a lovely time

We loved our stay at this super cute, cozy beach house on Stinson Beach with our family of six adults and a small dog. The house is in a quiet area about 30-40 yards away from the beach. It has a fenced in, nice yard with hot tub and BBQ. High fencing offers good privacy in backyard. There’s easy access around the side of the house to wash off after an afternoon at beach. You can hear the waves from the house. The kitchen is well stocked and there’s a market nearby for any extras we needed. Market is pricey so we were glad we brought most of our food with us. Kitchen and front room tables were good for cards and playing games. The WiFi connection was good. Owner was very responsive and helpful. We highly recommend this rental and beach experience!

Another enjoyable long girls weekend at our favorite beach cottage. Thank you host Karen who is amazing year after year!

Weather during long weekend was sunny so basked in the sun on the back deck and went for walk on the beach. It was also rainy one day amd chilly at night so turned on the gas fireplaces and played some board games from the well stocked game cabinet. Wonderful stay.

This cottage looks tiny from the street and my tall husband was nervous as we walked in, but it turned out to be perfect! It's clean and cozy with plenty of room for a family of five, thanks in no small part to the awesome outdoor space in the back. And the beach, of course! The beds were super comfortable and the owner was really responsive and helpful. The one downer was that the hot tub was leaking so we had to keep filling it up, meaning it never really got hot enough, but I'm sure that's been fixed. This was a delightful house and we had a great stay.

Excellent location and a great property for a family beach weekend.

The Beach Cottage is the quintessential way to experience Stinson Beach - steps to the beach, a wind proof backyard with a hot tub and a cute 3-bedroom well-equipped and very functional cottage. We’ll be back!

We had a wonderful time in this sweet cottage by the beach. The house is comfortable and the location is great!

My family loved staying here even though we got very rainy weather. The house heated up nicely with the gas oven and the hot tub warmed us up as well! The beach is at the end of the block and town is in walking distance.

We love this rental! I've been here with a group of girlfriends in the past. We had such a nice time that I came back again with my husband.

This cottage was exactly what we needed and wanted for our week away at Stinson! Kitchen well-equipped, beds and linens clean and comfortable. Highly recommend!

After a bumpy start on day 1 (septic alarm at 4:45am and electrical issues that affected the front room of the house), we had a great time. And the hosts were super apologetic and helpful, even at 4:45am! It was a winter stay, so we had the heaters cranked up and it was totally cozy! The beach really is just a half block away and we made the most of it, with long walks and incredible winter sunsets.

This cozy beach house is a stone's throw from Stinson beach. The outdoor space is a great addtion. If you like to cook, this is the house for you. It has the best equipped kitchen we have experienced in our travels.

We completely enjoyed our Stinson getaway at this adorable property for my wife and myself. This house is perfectly furnished with not too much and not too little. Everything that we needed was available to us through this property. From cooking our favorite meals to less than one minute walk to the beach. I highly recommend this beach house .

Steps from the beach, this lovely cottage has everything you need for a relaxing and cozy stay. Beds are incredibly comfortable, the sofas recline, and there are two fireplace heaters that heat the space amazingly well and add to the ambiance. Highly recommend!

Great location. Short, easy walk to the beach. The house is very well maintained, comfy beds and kitchen had everything we needed. Owner easy to work with & quick to respond if needed.

Authentic Stinson beach shack, carefully updated for all the modern comforts and conveniences. The beds were wonderful, and we enjoyed lounging and hot tubbing on the back patio after a day at the beach, which is just a few houses away. Stinson shops are a short walk. While small, thoughtfully laid out and could accommodate more than our small group. Highly recommend for a cozy and affordable stay at the beach!

Exactly as described and seemed even bigger and cleaner than the photos! Had everything we needed and the beds were all super comfortable. Loved the hot tub too. Easy check in and lots of helpful notes so we never had the need to contact the host which is kind of perfect! This house is just a few houses away from our favorite beach- super soft sand and small waves that are perfect for younger kids to play in. Also an easy walk to town to eat. Overall a perfect vacation and would definitely stay here again!

Steps to the beach down a private residential gravel road. The house looks tiny from the front but feels much bigger inside. Owners have done a very nice job updating the place. Nice new furniture, kitchen well equipped, 3 new Samsung TVs, skylights (with closable blinds), new windows , and a very cozy enclosed backyard with plenty of comfortable seating, umbrellas, BBQ with tools, and a hot tub. We enjoyed the place thoroughly and would love to go back again.

… to say how wonderful this home is … in case it’s no longer available when I want to come;)). Truth be told … this is a lovely, fully equipped, peaceful home, a stone’s throw from the more ‘private’ end of Stinson Beach. Karen, the owner, is super responsive. While we didn’t have any ‘real’ issues, we did want to alert her to some items that ‘may’ need attention. Karen was super grateful for our attention to her home. We … moreover I … will be back again. Thank YOU!!

This cute cottage on Calle Del Embarcadero (the last Calle before the Patios) is small but mighty! Location is great. It is Next to the beach so we could go several times per day. Owners were easy to communicate with and it all went smoothly. Karen, the owner, is very thoughtful in her decor and house set up. It’s very clean. We had six people and it was great. Our family of four, plus my parents (two senior citizens) had a great week. There is a comfortable living room with some new couches that have a reclining feature. She also has 3 big screen TVs, which all work great if you do streaming TV like we do. We use Netflix and Hulu. There are 3 small but comfortable rooms. The first room is one with two twin beds which our twin boys (almost 12) loved. They played video games and talked to their friends and hung out on their own at night and appreciated their own space. There were two more bedrooms, one with a king bed and one with a queen bed. The linens were soft and both have down comforters. The kitchen was well- appointed also. There are enough knives, pots and pans etc. we washed one load a day and that was sufficient. The yard was not big but was great and functioned like another room. There’s a seating area, hot tub and outdoor table. We spent a lot of time sitting outside, and we went into the hot tub every day after the beach. Things to bring: condiments (ketchup, soy sauce, hot sauce etc. although there is olive oil and spices), coffee, tea (there was some tea leftover there). Bring coffee filters as they ran out when we were there. I ended up just using the French press. You also need to bring your own beach towels and beach furniture (we brought chairs, a mat and an umbrella). I would also bring bug repellant (a few of us got bitten by mosquitoes outside). The house is dog Friendly (with an extra fee) but we were careful to take care of the house and made sure we picked up after our dog and he already knows he can’t jump on the furniture. Finally, this place is definitely not good for a raucous crowd. It’s right next to the neighbors on 3 sides. We were fine with our two boys and my senior parents. But for a family or a few friends, it’s perfect! After 8 pm we tended to go Inside. Overall, we had a memorable time and for the price we paid (360/night before all the fees, taxes etc.), we’ll definitely be back. Thanks Karen and Tony!!!!

Close to the beach and walk distance to the town. House is not big but super clean. Very nice place to stay.

This house was perfect for our family and only steps from the beach. The owners were wonderful and we would love to stay here again in the future!

Everything was as advertised. Very clean. Easy check in. Easy communication with Karen . Very relaxing stay. Great location

Cute cottage next to beach, lovely back yard patio with hot tub and well-equipped kitchen. Easy walk to center of town and trailheads.

We had a fantastic time with grandparents and kids. Perfect location to go to Napa or the city. Drive is a little long but worth it for views and location. Owner had excellent communication and perfect place for us to call our homebase. Thank you for such a fun stay!
