The location is ideal, and the quality of the interior lives up to the distinctive exterior, with roomy living space and tasteful furnishings. The only complaint we had is that there is only one openable window, and it is small.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at the castle house and it was truly a magical experience. This iconic home holds a special place in my heart, as I used to pass by it often when I was a child walking down Stinson. From the moment I stepped inside, I felt like I was staying in a mermaid's castle. The views from this house are simply breathtaking. Every window offers a full ocean view, allowing you to peer directly into the sea. And if you turn your gaze, you'll be greeted by the majestic mountain peaks. It was an absolute delight to spend time on the deck, sipping coffee while watching the sunrise or enjoying a glass of wine as the sun set. It truly felt like a slice of heaven. What made this stay even more special was the fact that it was a trip for our beloved dog who has cancer. It's not easy to find a house that offers direct access to the beach, but this one did. Our dog had the time of her life, frolicking in the sand and water. It warmed my heart to see her so happy, and I know I'll never forget this trip. I want to express my gratitude to the owners for opening their home to visitors. This was more than just a vacation rental, it was a truly magical experience. I can't wait to return and create more cherished memories. Thank you again for everything.

We are a family of 5 that came to Stinson Beach for a few days of relaxation. The house was amazing! The communication between the property manager was super. We had some questions and she would reply in a timely manner. She was very accommodating to all of our needs. I would definitely recommend staying here. We will definitely be back! Thank you for a wonderful time in Stinson Beach!

Even though we had a couple of colder days, we had a wonderful time staying inside the Castle House watching the dogs playing up and down the beach.

My family and I spent the week of Thanksgiving in the castle house. We loved being able to step out of the front door and onto the sand. The house is well-maintained and comfortable, and the remodeled bathrooms and kitchen are very nice. I must say of all the many vacation homes we have rented, this was by far the most well stocked kitchen. I was impressed. Being able to walk one block up the highway to the market or the bookstore or to have an ice cream cone was great. Elida quickly brought a new coffee pot when ours stopped working. She also helped us solve our parking issue which I greatly appreciated. It was the perfect house for our family vacation. Thank you Elida for making it feel like home.

The Castle house is amazing and magical, a great home to spend your time relaxing. Location can’t be beat. I will come as often as it is possible.

We had the best time in the castle house …the location is incredible snd the house is absolutely out of this world will definitely return ❤️❤️

This house is truly stunning, it touched our souls and will always remain in our hearts! Elida was the perfect host and had everything so dialed in that we barely needed to contact her. My husband, 17 yr old daughter and small dog had the week of our lives. We over packed not realizing just how well this house was stocked. Easy walking distance to the cafes. We spent most of our time on the beautiful deck people and dog watching. The weekends were very busy but during the week the activity slowed down. We saw more wagging tails than we could count. Our Chihuahua thought she was Queen of the castle! We are hoping to come back next year if Elida will have us!
