Cozy & Accommodating!

We were traveling with our family and sometimes that can be difficult especially when you’re going on a road trip with young kids, but Jessie really does have everything to accommodate your families needs. Staying at her place was convenient, close to Muir Woods, walking distance to restaurants and store, and spacious enough for a family. The fire pit outside was a bonus. Comfy beds and couch as well!

Fabulous spot!

Host extraordinaire! Not only is she a SUPER HOST by VRBO ratings but she is also one of those really kind people you meet in life every so often. This apt was immaculate and the perfect distance to the center of town - just around the block but quiet as could be for sleeping. Beds very comfy and kitchen has everything you need. A short distance to some of the best hiking in Muir Woods and also a quick drive to other great destinations such as Tiburon and SF. An hour away from wine country. Definitely staying here again. Thank you so much Jessie for all you did for us to make our stay so enjoyable. We’ll see you next year .

Felt like we found a hidden gem! The area is beautiful, place was easy to walk into town for morning coffee, a cocktail and for dinner! Not far for exploring San Francisco, Muir Woods, local beaches. The rental had everything we needed and more! Very comfortable furniture and beds! Only downside was the noise from the upstairs occupants.as they moved about.

Great location, 2 blocks from town. My 3 sisters and I (ages 55-75) really enjoyed our reunion in this home. We walked everywhere (restaurants, coffee shops, local market, public transportation into SanFrancisco). Large bedrooms with extremely comfortable beds, pillows and linens. Nice, comfy, private sitting area in back with gas fire pit very responsive host. We’d love to visit again.

We loved our 3 day stay in Mill Valley. Located in a quiet part of town. It was less than a five minute walk to the restaurants, bars and shopping. The property was bright, clean and comfortable. The indoor, as well as the outdoor space were spacious, elegant and fashionable. Our host Jessica was very responsive. We look forward to staying there again.

Jessie was on top of communicating with us in advance for a smooth check-in. The short walk into the middle of the charming downtown was easy. I definitely want to return when I have more time to enjoy this VRBO and to explore the area more! I need to add that I left a personal item behind and Jessie’s family quickly located my item and returned it to me which was above and beyond for my mistake :). Lovely spot and lovely family.

Perfect Location in Mill Valley!

We had a wonderful vacation in Jessie's downstairs apartment. Everything was pristine and wonderfully organized. Jessie included many thoughtful touches and snacks that were much appreciated! We loved the location as we could walk to the park and the beautiful cascade trails as well as into town for coffee and restaurants. Just note that because it's a downstairs unit you will hear a little noise now and then - nothing disturbing and it was completely quiet and peaceful at night. We also loved the outdoor space - perfect for enjoying a cup of coffee or a glass of wine. Highly recommended!
