Our 1500 sq ft. house is loft-style, built on a large rock with views of the Marin Mountains. Take pleasure in relaxing nights as you hear the crickets chirp and the rushing of the creek during the rainy months. Our house is a beautiful, tranquil place to unwind and enjoy everything that nature has to offer. On any given day, deer can be seen as close as 10 ft. from the outside deck.

Our house is nestled in the quaint town of Fairfax, CA which was just voted in 2011 as the ' Best Town in Marin' by the Pacific Sun.It is a quiet haven untouched by strip malls and corporate chains, yet it is close enough to the hustle and bustle of cities like San Francisco and Berkeley. A short distance a way are Mill Valley, Sausalito, Muir Woods, Mt. Tamalpais, Point Reyes, Stinson Beach & Napa.

Take advantage of picnicking in Deer Park, hiking/driving to the many lakes located near the house, strolling through the town of Fairfax, antique shopping in San Anselmo and exploring the other great cities, beaches & activities nearby. A few nights in Fairfax and you just may decide to stay!

Love staying at this "quiet haven"
This is the 2nd time we have stayed here - it is perfect for us. Walking distance to hiking trails and to the town of Fairfax. Short drive to other Marin locations. Very quiet and relatively secluded. Large enough for everyone in our family of 4 to have their own space. Kitchen had all the items we needed. Hosts are great!

A WONDERFUL GETAWAY
The house was well equipped and very homey, with comfortable beds and soft towels. And the shower was like a spa! Fairfax is a quaint town with good food and the neighborhoods were lovely. Misty, the owner, was very easy to reach and pleasant to work with. We had a great time and would do it again! Merilee

great stay
fantastic relaxing week spent there with my family, plenty of spaces, beautiful rooms nicely decorated. only (minor) issue was the lack of mobile network in the area, but wasn't a big deal as Wi-Fi worked very well.

Comfortable, Peaceful and Safe
The beds were very comfortable, the views were lovely and the home was clean. We enjoyed exploring the neighborhood too, we felt safe. Host was great to communicate with. We were concerned because we were traveling in the summertime and this home doesn’t have central AC. However, the bedrooms had ACs in them and so even tho the days in the common areas of the house were hot, we slept great in the cool bedrooms at night. In the mornings and at night, the common areas in the house cooled down too. The host left instructions on how best to use the fans in the house to cool everything down in the evening and we appreciated that. The town of Fairfax is cute and has great restaurants. Would love to visit again!

About the host

Hosted by Misty

Host profile image
We are sisters who love to travel and also enjoy vacationing at our home in Fairfax. The lifetime of memories that have been created at this house are special to the both of us. We hope others can come to Fairfax to enjoy this little slice of heaven and create new memories of their own.

What makes this property unique

The house itself has a retreat feel and is very unique in style with an A-frame and loft. The house is built on a solid rock with views of the Fairfax valley. One can sit out on the decks and enjoy all the surrounding nature, sounds, and wild animals. The stars at night are also beautiful.
