This location is stunning both inside and out, and the hosts are wonderful! They are very helpful and friendly, making the overall experience very enjoyable. The ambiance is incredibly comfortable, and the presence of Zen-like areas in the backyard adds a touch of magic to the atmosphere. Stayed there with some family and everyone was happy. The living room provided an excellent space for connecting and having great conversations. So close to some great coffee shops and restaurants! We enjoyed by just taking a short stroll down the street.

A block from everything downtown Mill Valley as well as many trails. Restaurants, coffee shops, groceries the Dipsy trail and many more are an easy walk from this charming cottage. It has a sweet and comfortable patio and hillside garden to admire the plants and birds. There are many stairs to the cottage but well worth the steps. We recommend this spot!

This cute and very comfortable house was in a perfect location. And the owner was fantastic getting back to us with any questions. Super quiet at night with a deck that helps you feel like you’re in the woods. We would stay again in a heartbeat.

Great week at this beautiful and well appointed flat with exceptional outdoor space (especially for any ornithologists), in Mill Valley. Our hosts couldn’t have been more helpful, a gem of a place in a really lovely town. We didn’t want to leave.

Cute little spot in the hills. Quiet private back porch area. It was perfect for us to come and go and have a spot to rest in between. We walked down to the square for coffee and breakfast every morning and even dinner a couple of nights. Alot to do within a short walking distance. Well equipped kitchen if you want to stay in a cook. Perfect market just down the street with a lot to choose from!

We'd needed to find a quiet spot in Marin so we could visit friends up in San Rafael that we haven't seen since covid, so we were very pleased to find this lovely 2 bedroom 2 bath cottage that could comfortably handle the 3 of us. The communication with owner Sally was friendly, clear, and quick. She told us that there are 40 stairs to the cottage, but they weren't too bad, and the stairs make the cottage feel more secret and special, tucked up among the trees with the birds as it is. The landscaping is delightful, and adds an extra outside room. There's a little fountain stream and several strings of cheerful outside lights on timers. The interior space of the cottage is cozy and well appointed - comfortable but not too fussy. The dining table is large enough to seat 6, which means that it could handle our three devices, three phones, a Rummikub game, a map, and some breakfast plates, all at the same time. The cottage is very close to the village of Mill Valley (but not so close as to have any noise), and also close to the start of a great trailhead which goes up to the top of Mt Tam. We only had breakfasts at the cottage as we were out for the other meals, but there's a good on-cooktop kettle to boil water for coffee and tea, plenty of mugs for both, and Equator Coffee just down the block for lattes. We loved staying at this cottage and hope to come back.

This house is absolutely one of the most special places I have had the pleasure to stay. First the house is a one minute walk from downtown Mill Valley, full of great restaurants, boutique shopping and unique local stores. Then the house is located on a hill perfectly integrated with nature. The garden and surrounding nature is breathtaking. Finally, you have the house itself, which feels like a forest cottage far away from reality. It is very clean and we did not experience one issue. There is a fountain outside the master bedroom and the bedrooms have French doors that open to the garden. The owner Sally is sweet, incredible and super responsive. They give you total privacy and have the house full of things you want and you need nothing. I cannot recommend this place more!!

We loved the our time here - extremely cozy (but plenty spacious), very attractive decor and filled with light. Sally and Michael are lovely hosts, available if needed. The condo is private but a quick few hundred yards walk into quaint downtown Mill Valley. We called it our soothing Tree House escape while we were there, because you look out of the front windows into the trees. The backyard is spectacular, with lush plantings and a soothing water feature. You will not regret staying here! We'll be back again!

This is the second time we stayed at Sally and Michael's beautiful home. We loved it the first time, but loved it more the second time and already planning to return for a third time. The property is lovely and very comfortable for 6 adults. The kitchen is well equipped and the outdoor deck is perfect to end the day with a glass of wine. What a great location, can walk to downtown Mill Valley. Can't say enough of this lovely home and gracious hosts.

Exquisite in all respects!
We (two adults) were extremely happy here during our 3-week stay. The house is very comfortable, clean and beautifully decorated. Kitchen is well-equipped. The backyard "zen garden" with many birdfeeders, small waterfall and abundant plant life was a great place to spend leisure time. Sally and Michael are great hosts - we felt very well taken care of! And just a short walk from downtown Mill Valley. Thank you for a perfect stay.

My family and I had been looking forward to our trip to California for many months. I had carefully picked this place to stay in Mill Valley and was not disappointed! It is very accurately described, clean and well appointed. It exudes charm, beds are comfy and the kitchen had everything we needed. Relaxing on the deck with adjacent garden and redwoods overhead was one of my favorite parts of this stay. Stinson Beach, Muir Woods and walking to Cascade Falls were wonderful. Thank you Sally and Michael for being fantastic hosts, your home and Mill Valley have a piece of my heart! Jessica

Charming hideaway cottage steps from heart of MV
Super cozy, charming cottage quick walk from downtown Mill Valley. Everything we needed, from umbrellas to laundry detergent to our favorite coffee. Nice to tuck in after a day out and about in Marin. Only suggestion would be to update master shower...

Hillside tree house
Very clean, and comfortable. Comfy bed.
Walk ability to town restaurants, the theatre, and grocery was perfect. Built into the side of a steep hill accessed by a shared stair walk that I won’t miss, and surrounded by trees. Felt like I was in a really cool tree house.

Just amazing
What a wonderful home! It was exactly what we expected and more! Fully equipped kitchen, great living room and dining room where the family could gather and watch TV and play cards. The outdoor space was perfect to get together for a nice glass of wine before dinner. The location was just perfect to walk to Mill Valley's great restaurants and stores. Just a short drive to San Francisco made it all the better. I can't say enough of Sally and Michael's hospitality. We will certainly be back!

Great Hosts for a great Home
Michael met us when we arrived and showed us around (nice touch). Then we settled into their beautiful home with stylish furniture, great outdoor spaces (patio and garden), and amazing views into the trees that surround the property and town. Mill Valley is a cute town and right out the front-door (you can walk everywhere in town without any trouble).
Lovely location right in downtown, with access to the market, coffee shop and restaurants. Also, easy access to parks and the trails (Dipsea). Plus, close to Muir Woods, Stinson Beach, San Fran and the costal highway
Hosts are great, Micheal went out of his way to bring us some beers from his son's brewery (four points). The beers were great, but the gesture was even better. I would recommend staying here and enjoying this wonderful part of California.
