The tall trees and open skies give a feeling of enchantment as if they are casting a spell—one of peace, gratitude, and mystery.

AMAZING host and breathtaking views! The place is cozy, comfortable, private, and very clean. A wonderful space to disconnect and find peace in nature. The host put so much care into creating a relaxing environment with lovely touches and amenities throughout the home and gave easy to follow instructions for parking and local activities. The location was perfect, just a few minutes from the cute downtown mill valley, Muir Woods, and San Francisco. It was also super dog-friendly with a big backyard that our pup loved! We had a wonderful time and will definitely back to this one of a kind forest retreat!
