About this property
Entire place
You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.
Cozy quiet & relaxing hide-a-way in the heart of Sausalito's ‘Hurricane Gulch.’
Nestled amidst the lush gardens of the property’s quaint & quiet private courtyard, you’ll find your cozy cottage perched just a few** steps above the (proverbial) ‘Dock on the Bay’. With views overlooking the bay and back dropped by the eponymous SF skyline, you’ll be hard-pressed to determine whether or not to perch-out under the serene Sausalito sun while watching the tide roll-away, or, lounge the day away with a good book and cool breeze to keep you company. Godspeed! **Disclaimer: a “few steps” may in fact be more than just a few.
Make yourself comfortable in this cottage, which features a fireplace and a Smart TV. There's a private patio. A kitchen is outfitted with a refrigerator, an oven, and a stovetop. Conveniences include a desk and a microwave, and housekeeping is provided on request.
Take in the views from a garden and make use of amenities such as barbecue grills.

Parking is part of the adventure. We were able to find parking, but it’s either 50 steps on the street below or 75 steps in the neighborhood up the hill. Pack lightly and if you’re fit it’s a fun hike in and out.Clean and hip and great for quiet coffee and wine on the deck viewing the bay!Checking in and out was a breeze!

My sister-in-law and I stayed for 2 nights at this magical, beautiful, welcoming, ideally-located place. It felt like a week. Our host, Charlie, made everything very easy and comfortable for us. You can’t beat the views. Would stay there again.

Do not ever stay at this property unless a helicopter lowers you to the front door from the sky. Even if you don’t need to park a car and drag your luggage from god-knows-where you will still have to contend with 90 steep, dangerous, slippery steps to ascend and descend from this place. Bring groceries, don’t bother because the kitchen is hardly equipped. Toilet paper? BYO. I could go on but believe me, this place SUCKS!

My Favorite New Sausalito Getaway
This beautiful bungalow is an absolute gem! It's perfect for a romantic getaway, solo writing escape, or a long weekend in a beautiful California town. We loved absolutely everything about this place, and the host was so friendly, helpful, and a very cool dude. I would stay here again in a heartbeat.

Cozy Getaway
Small cozy quiet property located just off the water overlooking the bay. Clear view of the bay bridge. Heater works wonderfully for the chilly Bay Area breeze and the little wood burning fireplace works wonders when the fog rolls in. Owner of the property even helped us bring our bags all the way up. Very friendly, would recommend!

Beautiful Stayover
We had to fill a gap before our flight for two nights and this was a lovely spot. beautiful view from the deck, lovely patio, privacy and close to the market and coffee bar. And on the quiet end of the waterfront in Sausalito. Just fit two adults upstairs and one teen on the downstairs pull out. There are lots of stairs up, which was not a problem for us. Charming.

It’s a great place to stay, but need to fix the wifi
Th space and the location is great. My biggest issue was no WiFi connection in the space. I couldn’t do any work at all. Reaching out was a struggle, Charlie did eventually respond and offered me to use the WiFi in his apt. Unfortunately, I can’t bring everything back and forth in the dark. I want to love my stay but it was just to sleep. It was tough.

Comfortable cottage above the beaten path
Don't let the 86 stairs and parking challenge keep you away from this quaint cottage on the hill above the bay! Beautiful million dollar views of both the bay and Sausalito skyline from your private deck where you can enjoy morning coffee as the sun rises over the bay. A short walk away is Golden Gate Market, a convenient neighborhood market with friendly helpful staff and surprisingly well stocked with groceries and delicious prepared food packaged for take-a-way meals. The Italian restaurant Aurora is also within walking distance - fabulous food, friendly service and away from the crowds. I loved the location of this property as I felt more like a Sausalito local and less of a tourist but if it's the tourist's experience you desire it's just a scenic walk away down Bridgeway along the bay. Best of both worlds.

Great location and views
Property is in walking distance to downtown Sausalito and many shops and restaurants. The property is high up on the hillside, with great views of the bay.
