  • Our cozy 1921 cottage apartment is located in a quiet neighborhood beneath 19 200 foot redwood trees. In Fairfax, you're not too far from anything!

    Jr kitchen, we have a toaster oven, microwave, coffee, and tea, so it's good for a little snack or breakfast.
    We're located just 10 min walk to downtown Fairfax where there's lots of good food, bars with live music, yoga, and possibly the best ice cream shop ever.
    The bus stop is located right downtown so it's easy to catch a bus to the city, or a shuttle to the beach.
    You'll also be located a 10 min walk from loads of hiking and mountain biking trails in Deer Park. If you're feeling energetic you can hike up to one of the five lakes nearby, or just drive 20 min up the hill.

    Guest access

    We have one parking spot. There is plenty of free parking down the street.

    Interaction with guests

    If you're independent, that's cool. If you would like recommendations about what to do in the area, where to eat, etc. we're happy to chat. We're usually home and or available on our cell phones.
