Cottage vacation rentals in Muir Beach

My husband and I spent 3 nights at the lodge for our one year wedding anniversary. It is located on the same property as their vineyard which makes for a beautiful, serene view and setup. During our stay, we did a very personal wine tasting with David in the main house. It truly is a cool experience and unlike any other wine tasting I have done before, not to mention the wine was very good! The lodge itself is cozy and relaxing with a private back patio looking into the trees and nature. I wasn’t so sure about the outdoor shower at first but it was actually really nice! Water warmed up really fast and the view is amazing. The bed is located upstairs which was very comfortable and cozy with plenty of pillows and blankets. If you have trouble with mobility, the stairs leading to the bedroom are not easy to navigate and there are more stairs from the parking lot to the lodge with some uneven ground at times. If you are fine with stairs and some walking, it is well worth it!

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!

Lovely artist’s cottage! The owner’s art and collections are on display, I kept seeing something new every day. Very comfortable and easy to walk to the beach or into town. Had a relaxing and comfortable stay. Slept really well!!

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.

This is a charming place, beautifully kept with lovely furnishings. We really enjoyed the well appointed kitchen as we cooked every day. The yard and gardens are beautifully kept, peaceful and serene. Oranges growing right outside the house! We were in town for a wedding, and Santa Rosa is right in the middle of so many enjoyable things to do. We hiked on the CCT out past Bodega Bay, enjoyed restaurants in Healdsburg, visited the redwoods and shopped at the Barlow in Sebastopol. Thank you Cheryl for sharing your lovely home. We had a fabulous time!

This was a perfect spot for a personal retreat. I loved everything from the decor to the comfy bed to the private hot tub and well tended garden. I would love to come back again.

What an amazing place ! We really loved our stay here ! Great location , super clean , comfortable beds , amazing views & right on the river, this place is a true gem & we can’t wait to return . Everything was clear & easy to access , we loved its proximity to both Guenerville & Duncan Mills for fun little day trips along with the convenience of nearby eateries & a market .

Super cute little spot. Walking distance to Sonoma Plaza and it had a private hot tub. Good distance from some vineyards and wineries as well!

We had a great experience at Caroline and Tim’s place! Walkable to Santa Rosa’s downtown area with lots of cafes, restaurants, and bars! Will keep this place in mind for a return visit to the area!

Clean and quiet with a cool vibe.

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

Laying by the river on the deck with my two senior doggos was pure bliss!

such a dreamy spot. beautiful cozy space and wonderful hosts. highly recommend and will definitely be back again.

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!

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.

We had a wonderful stay at this charming and cozy spot! It looked just like the photos, and the description was very accurate. While it's not a new or modern house, it has a warm, older charm that felt both comfortable and well maintained. The kitchen was fully stocked with all the appliances you’d expect in a home, which made cooking easy and convenient. We were pleasantly surprised by how much open living space there was—more than we expected from the photos. Even though it's close to neighbors, the area feels surprisingly secluded and private—perfect for a relaxing weekend. We especially loved soaking in the hot tub at night and listening to records from the huge and awesome collection, while enjoying the warmth of the wood stove. Adam was very helpful and responsive, always ready to answer our questions and offer local tips. This place was perfect for my boyfriend and me—it made for a memorable weekend getaway

My husband and I had a wonderful weekend getaway at Pat's place. We have stayed in Bodega Bay before, but this place was by far the best we've stayed at. We loved the convenient location walking distance to the beach and just a few minutes drive to restaurants and shopping. We enjoyed the deck for bird watching, listening to the waves, and star gazing at night. We also loved the charm and character of the house, the kitchen was adorable with all the amenities we needed, and the living room was awesome for relaxing and taking in the evening sunsets. Overall the house was clean, comfortable, and private. We will definately be back, our only regret is not staying longer!

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!

Mary's place will stay in our memories for a long time. We felt right at home. The house was charming and cozy without being kitschy, clean without being austere, well stocked with personal touches. Our favorite spot was the cushioned nook in the kitchen with a view of the ocean. We had a lovely, peaceful stay. Mary was a responsive, friendly host. Thank you!

This is a great place to stay in the bay! This reminds me of how are bnb was before it became really corporate. Her space was really charming and there were a lot of extras like food and blankets.

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!

Really loved this spot and had some amazing weather this weekend. Meg was very responsive and her house was beautiful and well kept. We hope to visit Inverness again some day!

About as good as an Airbnb gets, in my opinion. Just a lovely stay from start to finish. The cottage is cozy and situated in a very peaceful, beautiful setting, surrounded by towering redwoods, a little creek runs right alongside the property, and the hillside is lush with ferns. The cottage has amazing views from every window, but thick, easy to close curtains for privacy and sleeping late. The king size bed was perfectly firm and clean with nice cotton sheets and comforter. The kitchen was perfectly stocked with everything you could need, and it was easy to pair my phone to the Sonos speaker system for music. The hot tub is enormous, and just perfectly situated, so it felt very private and safe. All in all, everything about the place gets and A+! We didn’t interact with Tom beyond a few words at check-in, but he was warm and welcoming. We had zero problems, but when I messaged him to let him know we were checking out, he responded almost immediately. I hope we can stay here again!
