About this cottage rental

Situated in Larkspur, this attractive cottage for $183 per night is a great option for your next trip. This cottage is one-of-a-kind. It's lovely, large, quiet and in an incredible location, central to everything. A perfect base for exploring the Bay Area! San Francisco is 30 min to the south, wine country is 45 min to the north, and all of Marin surrounds you. The cottage is 20 minutes from Golden Gate Bridge, 5 minutes from highway 101 and easy walking distance to brunch or dinner in sweet downtown Kentfield. But here's the kicker: it feels totally removed, a secret oasis. It's on a 2-acre gated property covered with woodlands, redwood groves and gardens, and feels totally private. It's a wonderful place to come home to after a busy day. The cottage is sweet, spacious and serene. It is renovated in some features (floors, carpeting, window treatments, furnishings) and not in others (kitchen, bathroom). The living room has a very comfortable queen sleeper sofa. The dining area seats 4. The large flat screen TV comes with Roku. Off the living room is a large redwood deck with Weber grill and a sitting area, very private and lovely. You'll see deer on the lawn outside the front door and hummingbirds off the deck almost every day. A new heating/ AC system will keep you comfortable in any season - though Marin is so mild that you'll mostly just throw the deck doors open and enjoy the fresh air! The kitchen is equipped with all the basics: dishwasher, new fridge, microwave, toaster, pantry essentials. The bedroom boasts a beautiful queen-sized solid acacia bed with premium Sealy Posturepedic mattress and high-quality linens. It has large windows and lovely light. The bathroom is older but clean and functional. It has a small shower (no bath). The unit also has a separate laundry room with a washer/ dryer set. Generally, this cottage is large and cute, updated in some areas and a little dated and worn in others, but clean and comfortable and on a gorgeous property in an incredible location. The owners live on the property, in the main house. We are usually available to help with anything you need, within max 2 hours. ENTRY STEPS: This unit is down a set of outdoor steps. Those with mobility issues should consider this when deciding whether to book. PET POLICY: We love the doggos and they are most welcome on this pet friendly property! Here are the rules: One dog less than 50 lb. No dogs younger than one year old. Only very well-behaved pets allowed: no chewing, excessive barking etc. Dogs must be up to date on flea and tick treatments. Clean up scrupulously after your dog. If dog’s paws are dirty use the “Dog Paw Washing Station” next to the lawn to wash and dry them (towels in grey bin) before entering the unit. Use provided sofa and bed covers. $50 nonrefundable pet fee. Have fun playing with Rosie, the resident mini-bernadoodle!

My partner and I had a pleasant stay in the cottage which was private, clean, bright and comfortable, though dated and as we were told, will eventually be renovated. For our stay it was very functional. The kitchen is equipped with full sized appliances and a dishwasher. There is a small laundry room in the cottage with full-sized washer and dryer, great for stays over a few days. The bedroom has a comfortable bed and lovely views out to the trees. The bathroom was small with a tiny shower however. The living room nicely sized with a door to the deck. We felt like we were in a lovely treehouse. The parking is quite tight, so one has to be extra careful to stay in their assigned spot. Our hosts were very responsive to any questions. We loved the neighborhood and would definitely stay again

Beautiful cottage in good location with amazing scenery and so quiet and peaceful. Cottage itself it well laid out with bedroom and living room at opposite ends and the bathroom inbetween. High quality sheets and tasteful decorations made for one of our best stays in the area.

Needed a quick getaway with my daughter before she headed to college. Location was perfect for multiple options both walking distance and within reasonable driving distance. Shopping, hiking, Tomales Bay for oysters, and great restaurants. Parking is limited to one car, which worked for us.

Over all it was good. The cottage is dated and bathroom sink drain was an issue from the start. Beautiful outside deck and bbq. Parking is explained but is difficult if others do not stay to the designated location you are given. If you want to cook the kitchen could use some more pans and dishes (wine glasses). Over all very nice and would stay again and recommend.
