Guest house holiday rentals in Mill Valley

This beautiful Oakland Oasis was better than I imagined it would be! This place exceeded my expectations! Coming through the gate the first night, to a path of twinkling lights leading us to our adorable cabin took my breath away! It was the perfect location for peace and quiet right in the middle of Oakland. My only regret is that I didn’t spend more time on the property. We flew in from out of state to visit friends and spent a lot of time out and about. I definitely want to come back to spend more time hanging out in the backyard with the goats and chickens. My 13-year-old loved the backyard, the trampoline and the animals. The location was very walkable and within several blocks of many restaurants and shops. We rented a car and street parking was easily accessible. Reinhardt Redwood Regional Park was only an 8 minute drive away and we spent most mornings walking through the mountains enjoying the beautiful trees and views of San Francisco. Highly recommend this listing!

Rosa's place was a great stay for my needs. I was able to relax, enjoy the city, and work in the unit. I highly recommend taking MUNI!

I recently had the pleasure of staying at this charming stand-alone cottage in Kensington, and it exceeded all my expectations. Nestled in a serene garden setting, the cottage offers a peaceful retreat that's both private and comfortable. The detached nature of the guesthouse ensures complete privacy, making it an ideal spot for both work and relaxation. Additionally, the convenience of on-site parking adds to the overall ease of the stay. I highly recommend this guesthouse to anyone seeking a tranquil and comfortable getaway.

We stayed here to explore San Francisco and take day trips around the area! SF is about 20-30 minutes depending on what part of the city. Half moon bay is around 30 minutes as well. SFO is very close around 15 minutes. You do hear the occasional rumble of airplanes landing and taking off but wasn’t an inconvenience for us. This Airbnb is separate from the main house and you need to walk through the backyard to get there. We did find a couple spiders in the unit. Maybe because it’s an older home and surrounded by nature. Overall, we had a pleasant experience staying here. Parking is convenient on the driveway and the unit had everything we would have needed. Hosts were very responsive and we enjoyed our stay!

We had a nice stay at the Berry Patch cottage. It’s bigger than what shows in photos – you have to walk from the bedroom through the kitchen and living room to the bathroom. We spent most of our time in the bedroom cozied up next to the propane fireplace. This cottage does not have a fully enclosed yard like the smaller cottage next door. Our dogs still enjoyed exploring the yard on leash, and there are plenty of options for walks in the neighborhood and nearby. The modest digs was all that we needed to have a lovely weekend. Jeri is a sweet host and her raspberry jam is delicious on a slice of local bread!

If you need to stay in West Berkeley, this is a very convenient spot. The cottage is unusual and artistic. We particularly enjoyed the upstairs kitchen with loads of windows.

I rented Polina’s place for my daughter and toddler grandson during their visit to the area because my husband and I did not have room for them to stay with us. It was an excellent choice - a lovely well maintained unit on the grounds of Polina and her family’s home in the hills above Walnut Creek. Very peaceful area, yet close to downtown and transportation options. Polina was so kind and helpful, the unit has everything one would need for a short stay in the area. Highly recommended and a good value for the area.

Will and Jane were excellent hosts. The back house is light filled and spotless. It’s comfortable and well organized. It was peaceful, tucked away in a garden! I loved feeding the fish. Both Will and Jane were responsive and offered a great recommendation. I know I’ll stay here every time I come to San Francisco!

It’s a great little studio in a nice area in San Rafael. Andrea was very kind enough to let us do a late check-in and was flexible with check out. The apartment has all you need for a quick few nights stay. The area was safe and quiet. The bed was very comfy. Overall it’s a good value and in a good location

Rifat’s home was as advertised and she is a lovely host! Perfect set up for being productive, creative or just relaxing. Enjoyed coffee on the expansive patio in the morning and wine in the evening. A great spot to think and enjoy the scenery. Also plenty of great hikes nearby. Check out the local farmers market on Sundays. A fantastic stay!

Mary Lee and David have created an apartment that feels like home. Very thoughtful supplies and amenities, very responsive hosts, in a quiet and uncrowned neighborhood with easy access walking to the historic center, easy parking and easy access to the freeway. Met and exceeded all our needs.

The guest house is tiny but very clean and quiet. Perfect for the three nights we stayed. We enjoyed the hot tub and the view of the bay, bridge, and city lights. The private patio allowed us space to enjoy the outdoors while visiting with my son and his girlfriend who are Berkeley students. The robes and slippers for the hot tub were a nice touch. You definitely want to have a car if you stay up in the hills as the hike up is steep. We had a rental car and there was plenty of street parking available.

David is a great landlord. He was extremely fast to answer all questions. He was super helpful too!

It’s a very private abode even though you share a gated entrance with the owner. Barry couldn’t have been friendlier and had a great spirt about him. We nerded out on landscaping, tiny homes, and rivers. He sold me on giving the American River some of my time this year. I’d absolutely stay here again. The only real issue was the effort to climb down a ladder half awake. I did it in the dark so I wouldn’t lose my cat eyes and wake up too fast. There’s plenty of outside lounging areas and the views are pretty. I had a decent view of the night sky to the east and above. The town may be busy but you’re perched hillside under some great live oaks. The neighborhood was full of quiet families and quirky houses that are truly Marin County in nature. Open space trails are just uphill and the town is just down. It’s very convenient to everything.

Great! We were warn of a tempory fly infestation and asked if wr wanted yo cancel but we did not and there was no flies.

Jessica has created a lovely space. It is designed and appointed very well. Super comfortable bed, great pillows and there are many thoughtful touches throughout. I found my stay here incredibly restful. I love that there are hiking trails just up the hill. I would definitely recommend this space.

Little heaven in the forest just half an hour drive to San Francisco. The hikes walking distance and the sauna the japenese bath make this Airbnb one of the most beautiful place I stayed in. It’s an amazing place experience and Sarah the host would do anything to help you. Thank you

Easy check in, we’ll stocked, quiet , serene , babbling brook / waterfall outside bedroom. Felt like we were living in a tree house

This was my second visit loved the place peaceful

This is a lovely little place conveniently located near North Berkeley and University Village. It's a safe family neighborhood with parking. Raquel is very responsive and I highly recommend this accommodation.

This lovely, cozy apartment is in a quiet neighborhood and convenient to downtown. We love staying here when we visit Petaluma. Carole is an excellent host.

Jun is a wonderful and attentive host who provides clear, detailed check-in instructions. The location is highly convenient, situated between San Jose and Concord—perfect for those who need to travel between the two. Within a 5 to 10-minute drive, you'll find Costco, Walmart, Safeway, 24 Hour Fitness, and even Nordstrom Rack. Access to the freeway is quick and hassle-free. Jun’s place is in a safe, quiet neighborhood, and inside, you'll find everything you need for a comfortable stay. The space is impeccably clean and well-organized. A+ for both the host and the accommodation!

This perfectly-appointed cabin in the sky was the ideal escape “between the years.” It rained every day of our stay but that did not stop us from walking down to the beach, grabbing a bite at Parkside Cafe, and exploring every hiking trail in walking distance. (Highly recommend the Dipsea trail to Steep Ravine with a side bar to the Stinson Tree.) Carey really thought of everything: not only was the bed comfy and the place spotlessly clean, the kitchen was well-equipped (cream for the coffee!) as was the bathroom (thick towels!) We especially appreciated the clear instructions for operating windows and other things. It was our best Airbnb experience to date and we can’t wait to come back.

This is a great house. Nothing fancy - but has everything you need to make your stay comfortable
