This is a great location being a very short walk to the beach. It’s also walking distance to town. The kitchen was stocked with everything needed to cook at ‘home’ and the bed was very comfortable. Check in and check out were very easy.I would recommend this as a nice getaway!

Amazing location and a wonderful cottage with a delightful yard. So grateful for such a dog friendly and beautiful spot to escape to, steps from the beach. We walked to the beach 5 times each day. Love that it’s located so close to the dog friendly part of Stinson.

Such a coincidence that we stayed at the casita named mouse hole ☺️

Overall, it was a great stay! The location is fantastic. A few small suggestions that could make it even better: adding outdoor lighting in the back for nighttime use, some umbrellas and maybe a table for outdoor dining, and more towels would be helpful. The Wi-Fi could be improved, and a few updated photos might better reflect the space. Thanks for the great stay!

Beautiful house with everything we needed. Small touches and attention to detail are evident throughout- plenty of outlets, hooks, and a teapot! Well equipped cookware. So nice to be able to be on beach. Felt like home but better…vacation! We ate at Parkside cafe and Breakers. Both excellent and super close. We plan to come back.

Cute cottage close to the beach

This cozy house has everything needed for a relaxing few nights at the beach. It is a 3 minute walk to the waves and an uncrowded beach. The funky town of Bolinas is a short scenic drive along the lagoon.

Responsive host, cute accommodations in a great location, the cottage was well equipped and cozy. We did struggle with using the WiFi--my husband was trying to work and got dropped frequently and it could not accommodate more than one device. Other than that we were super pleased!

The Mouse Hole is such a inviting beach cottage for a getaway and the fenced backyard with outdoor seating was a bonus since we had our toy poodles with us. The ocean is just a few minute's walk away and this part of the beach is dog friendly.Last year, we stayed at Casita Azul, the smaller adjoining property, and we wouldn't hesitate to stay at either one again. Thank-you, Kathleen and Colby!

Charming coastal cottage

This property is so cute, and the proximity to the beach is wonderful! We found everything we needed to cook meals, and the space heater warmed the cottage very quickly. It is small, but the backyard space made it feel larger. We enjoyed our stay!
