Stinson Beach Apartment | Two Rooms & mini-kitchen in Classic Beach House - 300 steps to the Beach

1 Bedroom Apartment in Stinson Beach

The space sleeps 4-6 with a queen-sized tempurpedic mattress in a window space with a privacy curtain and trundle bed in the downstairs of the house, a bunk bed set in a private bedroom. In the main room there is a mini-kitchen with a fridge, a single induction cooktop, a toaster oven, microwave, and sink. An outdoor kitchen, shower and hottub, sometimes shared with other guests, are a few steps outside. A driftwood gate leads out to the beach. An extra foam mattress on the floor is available upon request. The space includes a microwave and toaster oven and a space refrigerator but not a full kitchen. Three other cabins are available to rent with this space if you need extra beds. Contact the owner for more information.
2025 NOTE: After 18 years of renting the whole house, the owner, who manages and maintains the property and is a Volunteer Firefighter in Stinson Beach, moved into the upstairs of the house and now rents two rooms and the bath downstairs as well as separate cabins (available to rent in addition). If the owner is on site, he is available to assist If things come up. Other guests may be staying in cabins on the property and therefore might share the hot tub spa, outdoor shower and outdoor kitchen spaces.
This a unique property on a nice quarter-acre of land that melds sweetly into the woods of the neighboring national park lands. Unlike many houses at Stinson, neighboring houses are on one fence only, so the place is quite private and expansive. The house is in its own wonderful watershed, almost a little micro-climate, yet only 300 yards from the 3 mile sandy beach. It's a 5-minute walk to the town's three restaurants, the library, market and boutiques.
A solar array and back-up battery allow the house to have partial electricity for several days in the event of power outages.
During the summer and holiday periods we rent by the week. Other times we will rent weekends, with a two night minimum.
For spring, summer and fall getaways and all year. With a wonderful indoor/outdoor feel, you can walk out French doors onto a beautiful Italian tile walkway around two sides of the house and onto the flagstone patio that leads to the hot tub.
Radiant heated tiled floors downstairs,
The house has some connection to Marin County Rock and Roll bands and was said to be a beach house for the Steve Miller Band at one time. The late Grateful Dead songwriter Robert Hunter stayed in the house as a guest. The Chris Robinson brotherhood shot photos for one of their albums on the property in recent years.
The house is located next to a lovely fresh water creek teeming with native plants and visited by wildlife, including deer, foxes, bats, ducks, grebes, egrets, hawks, warblers, flycatchers and many others. In March of 2009 we witnessed a 20' steelhead trout spawning below our dining room window! During most of the year, deer are nearby and visit often. In the late spring, we see their fawns running around.
The house borders the north end of the Golden Gate National Recreation Area Stinson Beach Park so it feels like you are on a very large piece of land. At night, a private back gate and path to the Stinson Beach Park parking lot allows you to slip out to the beach without passing neighbor houses.
The grassy and forested landscape allows for great exploring with children and quiet contemplative moments in nature.
Outside, you are right on the edge of the native willow forest with lovely views to the mountain and the waves. We often see deer, hawks and other wildlife just below. We have chairs to seat up to 10 people outside if you want to entertain.
Walk 300 yards to beach or 500 to the town. Two great restaurants, take-out pizza at Parkside, and the entire GGNRA (National Park) beach to yourself after the park closes at sunset or before it opens at 9 in the morning. We have mint and apples growing on the property.
Antiques and art that were collected over a span of more than 30 years are found in every room. It's an interesting place, inside and out, for a beach rental . It is, however, rather rustic.
We do not have pets and do not wish to have visitors bring pets on the property.
The land has enough space outside for an event tent for weddings and other gatherings up top 30 people (additional rates apply and owner approval required).

Summary: Very easy access to the beach. Great hot tub, delicious apples, very responsive host. The unheated back patio was quite chilly in November. Did not end up having anyone stay out there. Would come again!
