Cottage vacation rentals in Sausalito

The first thing you notice is the waves from all directions. You immediately feel at peace. All the amenities were easy to locate and good quality, including great pots and pans, knives dishes and gadgets for cooking. There were extra linens and towels, it was comfy upstairs and down. It was well laid out and you look out at Point Reyes and Tomales Bay while lying in bed upstairs. The stairs were quite steep but there was a nice bedroom downstairs as well. I enjoyed the heated ceramic floor in the downstairs bathroom and there was good water pressure. We loved the wide wraparound deck and dock, as well as outdoor tables and a garden. The beds and sofas were all very good quality and comfortable and it was nice to have the fireplace. The dog had room to sniff and roam safely at will as the decks and garden were well enclosed. Hog Island is one minute away, Tony’s five minutes away for the chowder, and truly awesome pizza at Route One on the way to the dog beach at Dillon. Thanks!

A gorgeous and magical oasis! I loved the hot tub, and having a parking spot was amazing. Spacious and well decorated on the inside. Truly a treat to stay here and I would stay again.

From the moment we walked in, we knew we would have a great stay. The cottage is beautiful! If you love midcentury, you will be obsessed. So well done and such a wonderful layout. The jacuzzi was the perfect way to wrap up a long drive day. I wish we could have stayed longer because it was the most cozy. Also the recommendations for grocery stores were the most helpful.

Mara is very friendly and considerate. She provided everything my dog and I need during the full month of stay. The house rules are clear and fair, which elevates the whole experience and simplifies communication needs. The view is fantastic in the garden. You can enjoy a very nice sauna in the early morning while overlooking the valley and listening to birds chirping. The whole experience is a good combination of natural connection, self reflection, easy access to school and city, plus safe and friendly living environment provided by Mara. Will definitely want to be here longer.

we had a very peaceful stay. we had cold weather so the hot tub and heated mattress pad really helped warm our bones. coffee and snacks were a lovey touch. would stay again.

Cynthia‘s house was excellent, very, very quaint and beautiful. We loved all the old-fashioned touches. The windows were absolutely amazing and the bird song in the morning was incredible. The hot tub was hot and perfect. And the gardens were so beautiful. We were absolutely enamored with everything. Cynthia was great and easy to work with and responsive. The way this old gem was kept up and left in its original form was extremely inspiring. We’ll definitely be back. Thanks so much for hosting us.

Stayed for 11 days and enjoyed each one. Very peaceful in and outside of the home. Felt like I was in my own. Thank you so much for having me!

lovely place to stay. it's a great location with all the amenities

Overall we had a good stay at Susan’s rental. She was very nice and communicative. It was very quiet and the bed was comfortable. Kitchen had everything we needed to cook a few meals. Large refrigerator. Regular drip coffee pot. Very close to downtown Mill Valley so you can walk into town easily. There seemed to be a few other renters on this property, and our rental was the very back unit. The walkway down the length of the front house was a bit tight, with 2 gates. It was farther than we expected to load/unload bags. Just a heads up - Parking was a bit tricky because this property is on the main avenue (Blithedale).

We had a wonderful stay at this charming house by the beach. The location was perfect—just a few houses away from the beach, which made it super convenient for our family. The house itself was spotless when we arrived and had a warm, welcoming feel. It was very family-friendly, with thoughtful touches that made it easy to relax with kids and our dog. Overall, it was a perfect spot for a laid-back beach getaway, and we’d absolutely love to come back. Highly recommend for families or anyone traveling with pets!

This was one of my favorite airbnbs! The host has thought of everything and made the stay feel right at home. Their hospitality was so appreciated and their local recommendations were incredibly thorough and spot on. We really enjoyed peaceful morning coffee in the backyard listening to the small stream running under the deck and birds singing, enjoying the many flavors of tea provided, and cooking meals here. They had everything we needed and then some. I can’t recommend this space enough and very close to all nearby towns and attractions. We can’t wait to come back!

We loved our stay at the Bluebird Cottage. The cottage is beautifully maintained and very clean. We enjoyed exploring the beautiful art and collected pieces in each room. Every window had a different view of the trees and foliage surrounding us, creating a serene and private setting. Minie was an amazing host. We received clear instructions, local guides, and amenities that made us feel right at home. Tips for future travelers: -The tandem driveway has a steep rise in the middle, with the potential to scrape the bottom of the car when parking. We parked just below the bump and that was fine. -For cold weather, we found the wall unit by the front door didn’t heat the room much. The wall heaters worked great. For the bedroom wall heater to work the light switch closest to the bedroom closet needs to be turned on.

Another lovely stay at Sabine’s unit. I love the kitchen and being able to resume my routines in that space. Likewise, for sleeping. I sleep well there. It is very quiet at night. The air is fresh. The neighborhood is quiet and safe. It is a family neighborhood with children everywhere! Very safe! I sleep with windows open every night. It is very restful and very quiet. There is no trouble and the community is friendly.

Great central location with lots of places to walk to. I grew up in Castro Valley but haven’t been back in many years. We stayed with our twin 5 year olds and there is a play place that is nearby. Katherine was very communicative and flexible with check in. There was a housekeeping issue and Katherine addressed this issue immediately. We couldn’t get the shower head in the master bath to work correctly but the guest bath shower worked just fine with good pressure. We were disappointed it rained while we were there because we didn’t get to use the backyard. It looked very inviting with the BBQ and fire pit. The dining table was great as we had my senior parents over for dinner and everyone fit comfortably. The home is beautifully decorated

Really beautiful spot in Los Altos Hills. The place was nice and spacious, kitchen was huge, nice and modern with lots of light. Very peaceful at night. Hosts very accommodating.

Being very close to the beach and walking distance to the town center makes this spot so wonderful. We love it here and plan to be back soon! Thanks 🪻

Tina and her partner were very welcoming and responsive. The cottage is darling and they were very thoughtful in how they set it up The garden is relaxing! Wonderful stay!

We will be back! This property is lovely, comfortable and CLEAN! The sunflower cabin worked well for the 2 of us and was very comfortable. The location is perfect if you are exploring Pt Reyes National Seashore and there are plenty of restaurants, stores and amenities in Olema and Pt Reyes Station.

It's absolutely magical space for a peaceful personal retreat. Just amazing surroundings with beautiful views from the house and the yard, park with century-old trees just a few minutes walk away and beautiful walking paths. Something that I really needed for a recovery after a long business trip.

En provided very helpful instructions to unlock and lock the gate. The cottage was private and a good size for two people. Having parking available in the driveway was appreciated!

I couldn't have been more pleased with my stay, and interfacing with Tom. The place was clean, tranquil, and well appointed. Tom was responsive, flexible, and kind. To top it off, their two chickens were the quietest, cutest little beings to be adjacent to and were welcome companions on the property. It was such an oasis, comfortable bed, great desk, and could hear the creek just below the window. Will definitely return.

This space is absolutely amazing—you feel instantly relaxed and at peace the moment you arrive. It’s perfect for a couple looking for a serene place to unwind between exploring San Francisco or for anyone seeking a quiet getaway from the hustle of everyday life. This was my first time staying here, and the location couldn’t be better! It’s within walking distance to everything in Noe Valley, as well as the Castro and Mission neighborhoods. Sebastian is a fantastic host who makes sure you feel completely at home. The space is private and beautifully designed, featuring handcrafted furniture made by Sebastian himself—just incredible! The bathroom is spacious, with an amazing shower, and the kitchenette is well-equipped with everything you might need, making the space feel super livable. I also had some of the best sleep I’ve had in a long time! I will definitely be coming back for another stay!

Very quiet cottage, safe, tranquil, exceedingly well equipped. I would stay here again!
