This cozy studio cottage (lovingly called the Writer's Cottage) at Stemple Creek Ranch in West Marin is a sweet retreat. It has a small deck with a BBQ, tiny kitchenette, outdoor shower, and views of the countryside that stretch for miles. We have two other AirBnB lodgings on the ranch - A 5 person "Rustic Cabin" and a 6 person "Charming Farmhouse".

The space
Stemple Creek Ranch is a family owned and operated organic cattle ranch in Tomales, CA, just a few miles from the Pacific Ocean. We raise grass-fed and grass-finished beef and lamb and pastured pork. This cabin is a refurbished small barn. It is a studio with a queen-sized bed, writing desk, cozy chair, small kitchenette, half bath (open to the room) and an outdoor shower. There is also a private backyard with seating and a gas BBQ.

The Ranch is just a few miles from the town of Tomales, less than a mile away from Highway 1 (Shoreline Highway), and a great home base for exploring Marin or Sonoma Counties.

Please note: no pets, no smoking, no open flames.

Guest access
The cottage itself, a place to park, and a small deck with a BBQ.

Other things to note
There is Verizon and AT&T cell service and satellite-based wifi.
If you want to order beef, lamb, or pork from us (Stemple Creek Ranch) please let us know a few days in advance, and we can have it there for you when you arrive.
