This two-story cottage is nested in a lovely rambling garden on the Bolinas Mesa. Both the cottage and main house are an artisan oasis, built by Paulette and David over the course of forty years living here in Bolinas! The first floor of the cottage includes a kitchenette, breakfast nook and living room. There is a comfortable queen-size sleeper sofa located in the living room for additional guests. Attached to the common area is a private powder room, as well as a separate rainfall shower room. The first floor opens up to a private garden deck, where you can enjoy a quiet morning coffee! The primary bedroom is located on the second floor, just up a spiral staircase. The bedroom is cozy, bright and sunny, with a view of Mount Tam. It also features a workspace overlooking the garden. We offer off-street parking and a private entrance. Along the path to the cottage, there is an outdoor surf shower to use after a day at the beach! Guests have exclusive use of the cottage and adjoining deck with full privacy. We always welcome you to enjoy the garden. The hosts live in a separate unit on the property and will be available to help guest with any practical requests as well as advise on any activities in the area, they may be interested in. The neighborhood is quiet residential. Only a 10 minute walk to famous Agathe Beach for tide pool watching. 15-20 minute walk to the pretty downtown of Bolinas, Sandy Beach and great surf. There is a local "stage" that takes you to Stinson and Point Reyes and back to East Marin. Check time schedule on line. During the daytime on week ends parking downtown Bolinas can be challenging, so walking or bicycling are the preferred way to get there. Bolinas offers an array of fun things to do: hiking in the Point Reyes National Seashore, surfing, kayaking, beach combing and birding, to name a few. There are several restaurants featuring local organic produce, and a foot stomping Smiley's saloon with great live music and a pool hall. We also have a lovely museum with ongoing exhibitions and an interesting historical exhibition. You can book a birdwatching experience of a lifetime with expert Kieth Hansen - Kieth Hansen . com; experience the Point Reyes Seashore on horseback with Five Brooks Stables - Five Brooks . com; or kayak the lagoon with Stinson Beach Surf and Kayak. Experience tide pooling in the Pacific at Agate Beach just down the road or drive out to the trailhead by Point Reyes Bird Observatory and hike to Bass Lake for a picnic and a swim! Most of all, you can just chill and enjoy the beautiful clean air and quiet atmosphere!
