First, John is an outstanding host. He was helpful and always available if needed. The home was very clean and well supplied. We enjoyed the location right on the water and the sunsets were truly spectacular.There are a variety of restaurants nearby, major grocery stores and interesting areas to explore.It was fun watching the boats, water sports and bird life. The evenings were peaceful. We would definitely come back again.
The view of the house from the water.
One of the beautiful sunsets we enjoyed.

Family Wedding Accommodation

Great home to stay for a family event in Marin County. Why stay in a hotel when you can be in a 3 bedroom/2 bath home with a full kitchen, sunroom facing the beautiful sunrise and sunset overlooking the Bel Marin Keys lagoon? Jump off the private dock and take a swim or enjoy the hot tub. Convenient location to Hwy. 101 and 37.

We had a terrific one-week stay. The kitchen was everything described in the listing, and we made good use of it. The same with the laundry facilities. Some in our party even found time to take the kayak out on the water and use the hot tub. Our party ranged in age from 1 to 75 and we all found the stay excellent. I'd heartily recommend this property.

Beautiful Novato Home on the Water

We had a wonderful week is this beautiful, light filled, well appointed, clean and comfortable home! The kitchen had everything needed to cook all of our meals, there is plenty of seating and room for our family to be together both in the dining room and relaxing in living room and sun room! The beds are extremely comfortable and bathrooms are big with great water pressure! The outdoor deck on the water offered the most amazing sunsets! We will definitely be back.

A Wonderful Experience.

The property was very well maintained with all the amenities needed for a comfortable stay. We were worried it might get too warm in the house with the lack of A/C, but with open windows and the nice breeze it stayed very comfortable. Communication was excellent with John during the entire process of booking all the way through to checking out. We wish we could have stayed longer, but, we are thinking about coming back next year.

Didn't disappoint

My husband and two kids stayed here for a week. Description and photos are true to actual property. The home was well kept and very clean. Beds were comfortable. We enjoyed the serene view although it was too cold for us to enjoy the dock. Home is well situated between the coast, wine country and San Francisco. Thanks foe a comfortable stay.

Best Napa / SFO location

We went to visit wineries and everything the area has to offer. The property is conveniently located in between SFO & Napa. The property would be a great destination all by itself if you just wanted to get away and get the knots out of your rope.

House on Bel Marin Keys

House was clean and appeared recently remodeled with new appliances etc. We had a nice stay. The day after departing the owner contacted me about "damage" to two sunroom screen doors. He sent a picture where the sharp metal latch was closing directly on a painted surface - scratching the paint. One of these doors we never even opened. I contacted the owner by replying to his text and then calling to discuss, but he never responded. The lack of communication was unfortunate after an otherwise nice stay.
