About

Welcome to a timeless coastal retreat nestled within the exclusive gated Seadrift community in Stinson Beach. This beautifully updated home blends classic design with modern elegance, offering a relaxed yet refined atmosphere just steps from the Pacific Ocean.

Good to know

Sunlight streams across the still waters of the lagoon as you step onto your private dock with a warm cup of coffee. The hills of Stinson Beach rise in the distance, framed by the quiet lapping of the tide and the soft call of seabirds. Life here moves at a slower pace - mornings stretch a little longer, evenings glow a little softer, and every moment feels connected to the water’s rhythm. Indoor comfort and design Inside, vaulted ceilings and floor-to-ceiling windows flood the home with natural light, creating an airy space that blurs the line between indoors and out. The great room is anchored by a wood-burning fireplace, offering a cozy gathering point on cooler evenings. Curl up with a book by the fire, settle in for a movie on the HDTV, or simply enjoy the panoramic views of the lagoon from the comfort of the sofa. The adjoining dining area, set in a window-wrapped alcove, makes every meal feel like a scenic occasion. The fully equipped kitchen includes stone countertops, an induction stove, stainless steel oven, and a drip and Keurig coffee maker, giving you everything needed to prepare fresh, shared meals. Outdoor living The home’s outdoor spaces are designed for relaxation and connection with nature. A sunny front courtyard is perfect for long lunches or evening barbecues, while the side deck and dock open directly to the lagoon. Here, you can lounge in the sun, launch a kayak, or sip wine as the sky fades to pink over the hills. The year-round private hot tub offers a soothing end to the day, while the outdoor shower provides a refreshing rinse after swimming. With both charcoal and gas grills available, outdoor dining becomes a central part of the experience. Sleeping arrangements Three bedrooms and two bathrooms provide comfortable accommodations for families or small groups. Each room is thoughtfully appointed with cotton linens, ample clothing storage, and soft lighting to create a restful retreat. Whether you’re traveling with friends or family, the layout ensures both privacy and a sense of togetherness. Amenities and conveniences Guests will find modern conveniences seamlessly integrated into this coastal retreat. High-speed Wi-Fi (83 Mbps, verified) makes it easy to stream, join video calls, or work remotely. For entertainment, the home offers multiple streaming platforms and a ping pong table for friendly competition. A washer and dryer are provided in-unit, along with essentials like shampoo, conditioner, and body soap. Parking is available, and as a guest of the Seadrift community, you’ll also have access to tennis courts nearby. Location and setting Tucked within the gated Seadrift community, the home combines privacy with proximity to the beach. A short walk brings you to the sand and waves of the Pacific, where you can enjoy long walks along the shoreline or explore nearby paths. The surrounding landscape invites exploration, from the redwoods to coastal trails, yet the tranquility of the lagoon ensures you always return to peace. Perfect for This home is ideal for those seeking a serene coastal getaway where water, comfort, and connection to nature define the rhythm of each day. Whether you’re sharing stories around the fireplace, watching the sunset from the dock, or soaking in the hot tub under the stars, the setting encourages you to slow down and savor each moment.

We really adored Michael's house on the lagoon! This is an utterly charming, modern beach house, well-stocked and simply, tastefully decorated, and right on the lagoon, looking out to the mountainside. We know Stinson well and had stayed previously in an oceanside house --which is great, too! --but we *loved the lagoon; being able to kayak and swim on a whim; the water is plenty warm and the place has boats aplenty. Loved chilling in the hot tub, heading to the beach or Mount Tam for sunset. We've stayed at a lot of Airbnbs and rate this one as truly superior, in itself, but also an absolute bargain for how nice it is. Plus: Michael is a patient, super-responsive host. Love Stinson, loved the spot, loved the house; we cannot wait to return!

So peaceful to look out the window from the living room and the primary bedroom. Lots of kayaks right there on the deck. Hot tub was wonderful. Kitchen was well stocked. Highly recommended.

We loved our stay! I went with my parents and my kids (4 y.o. and one y.o.), and everyone quickly found their activities. The place is right on the water, close to the beach, has a super cozy house, and is in a nice neighborhood. I highly recommend it.

Michael was an incredible host—flexible, responsive, and communicative throughout our stay. The accommodation was perfect for a weekend getaway. Situated in a private community straddling Stinson Beach, the property offers a stunning setting: the soothing sound of ocean waves drifts into the living room from one side, while a serene, swimmable canal backed by a dramatic mountain backdrop lies just steps away. The kitchen was well-equipped, and we loved being able to paddleboard in the afternoon sun as it burned off the coastal fog. After a few inevitable tumbles, the hot tub was a welcome way to warm up and unwind. Evenings felt magical with a soft breeze from the patio, a cozy fire crackling in the fireplace, and chill music flowing through the impressive soundbar system. Beyond the property itself, the location was ideal—with quick access to the beach (just a five-minute drive), nearby hikes like the Dipsea Trail, and convenient grocery option all close by. Highly recommend.

There are few more perfect places to stay than this oasis. Every detail is true perfection! The quite road, the beautiful home, the immaculate bright interior design, and then the incredible hot tub overlooking the swimmable lagoon with views of the mountain! It was such an abundantly beautiful place to stay. I am still pinching myself that I got to call this home home for two nights. And Stinson Beach and Bolinas being a short drive away was wonderful. FYI - Coast Cafe in Bolinas has the best vegan tofu dish :). Mike was a fantastic host! I would love to return again and again!

Beautiful, peaceful location on lagoon, short walk to beach. House was extremely clean and light-filled, with appealing simple decor; well-stocked with cookware, kitchen utensils, dishes - everything we needed to prepare meals and eat in. Plenty of outdoor space to sit and enjoy nature, or kayak and paddleboard on the lagoon. Wonderful. Michael was a very attentive and responsive host. We look forward to coming back sometime!

This place is a GEM! We had an amazing stay. Very peaceful, serene and what gorgeous views!! We didn't feel like leaving the place and going anywhere else :) Overall, the home was very clean, and the kitchen well equipped with everything we needed. We enjoyed kayaking (had access to kayaks and life jackets at home and there is also a nearby place where you can rent more if needed), and then soaking in the hot tub to relax. Drove down to the beach, which you can access from within the gated community. It was absolutely amazing! The kids loved it and had lots of fun. Thank you Mike - You were an excellent host! Thanks for being so organized, proactive, super responsive and so helpful. You made everything super easy for us. Thanks again for a memorable stay! We will definitely visit again :)
