Tranquil Haven Cottage Retreat - San Rafael, CA

It's an incredibly central location for your daily excursions, with both a shaded front porch and a sun-splashed side patio waiting to welcome you home.

This home provides the utmost in convenience, as it sits a matter of blocks from both 101 and 580. You'll have easy driving access to all corners of the Bay Area, yet you can also leave your car at home for the day. The Cal Park Hill Pathway - connecting you to downtown San Rafael, the Larkspur Ferry Terminal, and two SMART stations - is two blocks away. World-class hiking and mountain biking, scenic drives out to West Marin, and the shops and restaurants of Fourth Street are close by as well.

Pick up some local produce at the Marin Civic Center's legendary farmers market (four miles), and prepare homemade meals in a chic kitchen with new stainless steel appliances. Sit down to eat at the spacious island, in the sunlit dining room, or outside on the covered front porch.

As for your evenings, you can spend them playing board games and streaming movies in the comfort of the living room. As the day's clothes spin in the washer/dryer, log onto the complimentary WiFi and plan tomorrow's adventures.
