Vacation rentals with a firepit in Marin County

We had a wonderful week visiting family in Novato. Mike’s place was a perfect location for us, close to the park, an easy drive to downtown Novato, a quick drive to the shopping centers in town, and our family was close by. The kitchen was well stocked, the beds were very comfortable and we felt right at home. We loved the backyard! We really appreciated how Mike kept in touch and was responsive to any questions we had. Hopefully we’ll be back in the near future.

My adult siblings and I are originally from the area, and needed to visit a local loved one at a challenging time. Maggie’s home was just perfect: beautiful, spacious, gracious and easy to access — and so peaceful and quiet, perfect for our needs. A real sanctuary. We stocked up on groceries from local luxurious organic market the Good Earth and cooked and ate all of our meals in the peaceful, beautiful, calm environment. (Kitchen had good pots and pans, too!) Really ideal.

my friend and I stayed at Peter‘s place over Easter weekend, and we just loved everything about it. The home layout was fantastic with one wing having all of the social spaces, dining kitchen lounging rooms with huge windows that looked across both lagoons. Beautiful sunset and watching the sea birds. The other wing had a sleeping quarters in the bathrooms. Everything was pristine and there was plenty of space. One room is a bunk room, which was super fun and the beds were really comfortable. The house is well located and even more beautiful than the pictures Peter was super responsive and proactive we would stay again in a heartbeat. There are such beautiful, calm, peaceful energy, a great place to unwind.

Perfect house to connect with our kids, grandkids and granddogs. Plenty of room, everything was clean and the beach was fantastic. We would definitely rent this house again!

We had a fantastic stay at the Redwood Lodge! The location can’t be beat - away from the bustle of downtown but less than a 5 minute drive to all the action. We enjoyed having a full kitchen and eating majority of dinners at home - especially with all the wildlife coming to explore the property (deer, rabbits, turkeys, quail, hummingbirds). The beds were SO comfortable - we were very well rested, and the amenities could not be beat! We reached out with a few inquiries related to the property - Phyllis replied within minutes and was very helpful and understanding. Thank you Hunt and Phyllis for a great stay - hoping to make it back to Sonoma and this property again in the future!

We absolutely loved the interior design, layout and artwork. We had everything and more for a comfortable stay. The location isn’t walkable but is a short drive to restaurants, groceries, and plenty of beautiful outdoor activities. Annie was a very responsive host.

Jim’s home was exactly as pictured and represented. It struck the perfect balance between having all the amenities we needed, and providing clear, clean space for the clothes and items we brought with us. Jim was available and responsive when we reached out, and a pleasure to communicate with. The area was within walking distance of a wonderful trail and near enough to downtown Mill Valley and San Francisco to make quick trips to both easy. The neighborhood was quiet, the neighbors kind, and the atmosphere welcoming and peaceful. We will definitely book our next trip to Mill Valley with Jim.

Franks place was ideal for our family's reunion. There was ample space for 6 adults and 3 little ones. The guest house is perfect for a more private space separate from the main house. The house is lovely and has a great vibe. Great furnishings and art make it feel inviting and comfortable. The kitchen is very functional for lots of people. There was enough outdoor space for the kids to run around. The location was great: a 25 minute drive to Sonoma, 10 minutes to Petaluma and lots to do within a 30 minute drive. It was definitely a more affordable option than staying closer to Sonoma.

Lovely place, terrific location, good hills for walks, great trails nearby for cycling, several food shopping options close by! Gary’s a friendly and generous host.

Clean place, comfortable bed and good amenities, I would definitely stay here again.

I have stayed here many times, and I love this airbnb! It's my home away from home when I need a few nights away from responsibilities. I have a routine where I hike the Matt Davis trail in the morning/afternoon, get settled into this airbnb, walk to an early dinner at Parkside, and then go to bed early. When I wake up I go for a beach walk and take in the ocean. I never use my car when I'm staying here, which is so nice. It's all so lovely - this place is a gem!

Faustin is an excellent host providing a truly unique Redwoods experience. Immaculate vibrations. My girlfriend and I hiked from The Treehouse to Muir Woods and it was an experience I won’t soon forget. Highly recommend to anyone who wants an authentic, rustic, pure-hearted experience loaded with character and love. There is magic in the air here. Inhale the crisp air and take care of the gift around you.

We loved Amber's place! It has an amazing view of the Corte Madera Creek and Mt Tam East Peak. Watching sunrise and sunset on the outdoor balcony with the fit pit over coffee/drink is a must! Amber was super responsive both before and during the stay. When a few unexpected incidents occurred, Amber responded and addressed the matter promptly, while being out of town. We enjoyed hikes and walks right from the unit and highly recommend it!

This is the perfect sanctuary away from all the hustle and bustle, nestled against a beautiful backdrop of nature and greenery, and close enough to drive into town or take a walk to a local cafe or bakery. We were 10 minute drive to many wineries and to Sonoma Plaza so it was very convenient. Allen was responsive and made our stay easy and pleasant.

Beautiful clean space for our weekend stay! Less than a 10 minute walk down to the beach with a convenient restaurant/cafe/snack bar on the way. Always love Stinson beach area, defiantly will be back!

Perfect spot for a long weekend stay! Comfortable with lots of natural light. A welcoming space for kids and dogs - especially appreciate the securely fenced yard. Looked exactly like the photos, and every amenity was as described.

Let me start by saying that the next time my wife and I head to wine country, we're hoping to stay in Jeanne's cabin again. For us, it was the perfect location. The description in the listing is completely accurate, but it's hard to really appreciate how nice the place is without seeing it for yourself. It was beyond our expectations. Comfortable, quiet, peaceful and just really beautiful. Jeanne is a terrific host. Responsive, helpful, sensitive to the needs of her guests and a pleasure to talk to. We walked to the cafe that is essentially next door every morning for coffee and something for breakfast before heading out for the day. If our plans were in downtown Sonoma, we took advantage of the fact that it is an easy walk from the cabin. The location was also great for excursions further out to Napa and the surrounding area. Best of all, was returning to such a great place at the end of the day where you could just relax. It was awesome. Thanks, Jeanne!

A perfect getaway for anyone looking for a forest respite! Staying in this home is like stepping back in time to the artsy California of the 1970s. The architecture of the room is astonishing and the views are breathtaking. The only noises we heard during our stay were the humming of bees and birds. We spent a day hiking to Limantour Beach and back, read some of the vintage architecture magazines during the afternoon, watched the full moon rise at night. This is a unique and special place, ideal for anyone who needs to get away from the modern world and reset. Two pieces of advice - bring groceries if you're staying for more than a couple days and make sure your car works on unpaved gravel paths. Other than that, enjoy the solitude and tranquility! We can't wait to come back!

Zen retreat in the redwoods - extremely calm and healing ambience The cabin is located next to a small audible stream and surrounded by redwoods, and just a few blocks from the lovely Mill Valley downtown. Amazing contrast of urban and nature, within a few minutes of walking. The Cascade Trail, Muir Woods and all of the Mill Valley stairways are within easy access. The cabin itself is very cozy and calm. The beds are medium firm and comfortable, with soft, good quality bedding. I slept very well as it as so quiet and calm. The separate office is perfect for remote working. The cabin is filled with design and little artful objects that add to the ‘Asia meets Redwoods’ vibe. Note that except for the office, the indoor seating is very low - Asian style - whereas the deck has a western height seating area. Highly recommended - lots of character and personality!

Wonderful place to create great memories! Really great location and view. Great light. The place is very spacious - upstairs is a large loft with a full bathroom which was great. Plenty of room to spread out. Appreciated the different seating areas inside and outside. Like others mentioned, it's got that 'someone lives here' vibe but that didn't bother us at all, in fact, it added to the character. No need to bring anything -- kitchen fully stocked, books, legos & games for the kids, etc. Perfect getaway to unwind and enjoy nature.
