This house was absolutely incredible. The property itself was exactly as pictured. It is as amazing as it looks.The water completely surrounding us was serene, peaceful, and relaxing, and it was a perfect location for my executive retreat. The house is equipped with a hot tub, a sauna, a pool, a beautiful, huge bathtub with luxury bathrooms, a fully-equipped kitchen, really comfortable beds, pillows, linens, smart TV, lots of seating, and barbecue. It was just literally perfect, and Sherry is such a gem. She was so helpful and responsive the entire time. She even went as far as to bring us some butter when we needed some. I was just blown away, and I can't wait to come back.

The host was very welcoming and responsive. The view from the living room overlooking the pool, jacuzzi, palm trees, canal, sailboats, and hillsides was very peaceful. The house had unique and fun decor while still feeling comfortable and homey. The sauna was also nice to enjoy.

We loved this home for our weekend in San Francisco! Very comfortable - multiple seating/conversation areas - fire pit - jacuzzi and pool. The showers are amazing and the master bath is exceptional. Bedrooms are nice in size and the beds are very comfortable. I really don’t have anything negative to say about this home.

3 families w kids had the pleasure of staying 1 week in Sherry’s house.Great communication and quick response from the very first minute of booking until the end of our stay. Location: super! Quiet and on the canal. Soccer pitch and nice run path right outside the house. 8 mins to Larkspur ferry terminal (we used the ferry to/from San Francisco. Excellent road cycling in Marin. Close to Hiking trails around Mount Tam. Stinson beach 35 min awayWe used the house as a base for exploring the area and beyond (Yosemite) and the only thing we kind of regret was not spending a couple of days more…just to hang around the house, chill by the pool, read a book in the lounge area. We did have time for barbecues and had most meals outdoors. Super cosy to sit at the very tip of the house Peninsula around the gas fire pit in the evenings. And again I would point out how quiet it was when sitting there.Sherry answered our Q’s and was quick to replace things that didn’t work (Like a leaking air mattress)We spent 3 weeks travelling the PCH and this house was the only one we had for a week and we’ll easily come back again.Thank you Sherry

For our family, this location was perfect. We had all we needed in the San Rafael, Corta Marte, Sausilito area while only being 30 min from Pier 39, Giants stadium and Fisherman’s wharf. Home was very spacious with everything we needed.

Home is beautiful and well appointed. We had plenty of space for our party of 7 longtime girlfriends to reconnect. Property manager was great at accommodating. She answered texts right away and made us feel very welcome. Able to paddleboard and kayak on lagoon and enjoy all the dining and lounge areas around the property.

Casa Canal

We had a wonderful & relaxing time at Casa Canal this past weekend with a group of women. Although the neighborhood made us a little concerned when we were driving to it but when we got there we felt secure. The property is surrounded with video surveillance & once behind the gate of the home you feel transported to a different place. It’s so relaxing, the water, the birds & the ambiance was so refreshing. Would definitely stay here again.
