The space
Salt air drifts through the garden as waves roll in just beyond the deck, and winter light softens the shoreline into a quiet, ever-changing canvas. You arrive along a lush path, the sound of the ocean guiding you toward a warm, inviting retreat where cool coastal days give way to cozy evenings by the fire and long soaks under the stars.

The setting
Set right on the waterfront, this home offers beach view, bay view, and ocean view, with private beach access only steps away. Winter mornings invite reflective walks along the sand, while afternoons are perfect for rinsing off in the outdoor shower and settling into the calm rhythm of the coast. The private patio or balcony opens to the sea, with a BBQ grill for open-air meals when the weather cooperates. A private hot tub, available all year and open 24 hours, becomes especially inviting in the cooler season, offering a warm contrast to the crisp marine air.

Living spaces
Inside, the house feels bright yet sheltered, designed for gathering and unwinding. The living area centers around a wood-burning indoor fireplace, ideal for cooler coastal nights when you want to curl up with a book or enjoy a quiet movie. Heating keeps the space comfortable, while WiFi and an Ethernet connection support both streaming and remote work. Books and reading material add to the relaxed, unplugged atmosphere.

Kitchen and dining
The kitchen is a full space where guests can cook their own meals, equipped for everything from simple breakfasts to shared dinners after a day outdoors. A dining table anchors the room, making it easy to linger over meals, play games, or plan the next day’s beach walks. Coffee is easy to enjoy at any hour, whether you’re easing into the morning or warming up after sunset.

Sleeping arrangements
The home sleeps up to 10 guests across 4 bedrooms, offering flexibility for families and groups. The primary bedroom features a queen bed and opens directly to the deck and hot tub, creating a peaceful connection to the outdoors even in winter. Additional bedrooms include a guest room and a bunk room suited for kids or friends. A detached private en suite adds another layer of privacy, complete with its own kitchenette and separate entrance, ideal for those who appreciate a bit of independence during the stay.

Practical comforts
In-unit laundry, bathroom essentials, and thoughtful storage make longer stays easy. Free driveway parking is available on the premises, and self check-in via keypad allows for a smooth arrival. The home is pet-friendly, welcoming four-legged companions to enjoy the beachside setting alongside you.

Whether you’re listening to rain drift in from the Pacific, warming up by the fireplace, or easing into the hot tub after a brisk beach walk, this waterfront Stinson Beach retreat offers a grounded, seasonal escape where comfort and nature stay closely intertwined.

Guest access
The entire property including the in-law unit, BBQ, and hot tub.

Other things to note
✅ This property has special local compliance requirements which include a signed rental agreement, ID verification, and a security hold of $1000 (which is not a traditional security deposit, just a pending transaction). As an optional alternative to the security hold, you may opt in to purchase a non-refundable damage waiver provided by a third-party insurance company. The optional damage waiver is $50 for stays up to 10 nights, with an additional $2 per day for stays longer than 10 nights. Damage waiver purchases are optional.

To make this process easy for you, we use a secure and very simple, app-free platform called Happy Guest. It is not an app, and you do not have to sign up for an account - it’s a safe and secure website. It also gives you a guest portal with all the info about the home and all of my favorite local spots.

If you have any questions, just message us anytime! Happy to help!

We relaxed from the moment we arrived. Perfect location and Michael’s place felt very homely. Kitchen was really well equipped and we appreciated the olive oil and sugar! Can’t wait to stay there again. Thanks Michael

We stayed at Michael's place for Spring break across 3 generations of my husband's family. Kids spent all day in the sand and everyone had a relaxing time together. Kitchen was fully stocked, location cannot be beat right on the dunes, and we'd love to return in the future!
