Our favorite location for retreats in the nature in this area is surely Mill Valley Cottage. As described by its lovely owners, Philip and Dale Going, this magical cottage is an “elegant, comfortable home away from home filled with antiques, books, art and a grand piano.” And there is much, much more. Located relatively close to San Francisco, this cozy yet stylish home sits at the foot of Mt. Tamalpais, making it a great location to enjoy all the activities previously described.

Perfect for a romantic getaway or a family weekend due to its charm and size (5 people can comfortably sleep in there), this house has been designed and decorated by the two owners, which also happen to be artists. Fully furnished with great luxuries such as a charming kitchen full of antique china, a dining room, two bathrooms, a media room and a relaxing garden with a bird fountain, Mill Valley cottage is our first choice for a charming retreat.

    Mill Valley Cottage looks absolutely wonderful! I’m going to book it ASAP and bring my family. Maybe this will be our twice-yearly spot… I’ve been searching for the perfect place, but this looks like it could be just right! <3
