This rustic, cozy cabin at Stemple Creek Ranch (West Marin) is delightful. It is just a few miles from the ocean, has a private deck with BBQ, kitchenette, loft for sleeping, and views of the countryside that stretch for miles.

There is plenty of space for 5 guests. The sleeping loft has a queen bed and a twin bed. Downstairs there is leather couch with a queen sized (very comfy!) sofa bed.

The bathroom has a clawfoot tub/shower combo and pedestal sink.

The kitchenette has a burner gas stove, small sink, kettle, Keurig coffee maker, and outdoor there is a gas grill.

Your private deck has seating and stunning views!

We also have a 2 person cabin on the same property (listing #1113384), a farmhouse that sleeps 6 (property #1227083) and an event venue (outdoor spaces and a beautiful barn) if you are looking for somewhere to host a party, wedding, or corporate event.

The cabin is just a few miles away from the town of Tomales, less than a mile away from Highway 1 (Shoreline Highway), and a great home base for exploring Marin or Sonoma Counties. Visitors love to go kayaking, hiking, and enjoy the local wine, oysters, and cheese.

Lovely Hideaway

Perfect place to hang out an enjoy the beauty of the coast. The description describes the place perfectly. We enjoyed a lovely view of the coastal range dotted with sheep and cattle. The cabin was clean and cozy. After our walk around the beautiful grounds, we sampled local fare we had collected on our day excursion along the ocean including local fresh bread, cheese, crab and oysters. If you are looking for a quiet place to stay with scenic views, this is it.

Perfection of Marin County

My visiting sisters were enthralled with the beauty and tranquility of this location, and we took a late afternoon walk up to the hilltop with the gorgeous eucalyptus grove where 2 owls were calling and stayed while dusk settled. It's a lovely setting and the orientation of the cabin with lots of windows allows for viewing the verdant hills and the sunrise. We plan to use again!

Beautiful and peaceful

Beautiful place. The cabin slept 5 comfortably. There was not a microwave which was not a problem for us. We used the toaster oven and the two stove burners for what we needed. I was excited to take a bath in the clawfoot tub, but it was a little more rustic than expected. Spider webs and a few spiders, no tub stopper and water was restricted anyway so I opted out on that. Shower was perfectly adequate. I can't say enough about the charm and beauty of this place. The nights were cool and comfortable for our June stay. The views of birds, flowers and cattle were wonderful. We didn’t want to leave. I hope to return!
