Solar-Powered Dream Vacation Property

This inviting and comfortable home is in an ideal location for your Stinson experience. It is merely steps to the beach as well as the heart of the village. Park your car for the length of your stay and walk to everything you need: the surf, restaurants, boutiques and grocery.

The site is unusually large for the neighborhood, so enjoys a private setting and plenty of parking. The outdoor areas are set back from the neighbors and spacious enough for large family gatherings. The lot has frontage on two streets with electric charging stations on both and plenty of on- and off-street parking for guests.

The house was constructed in 2007 with an open plan and indoor/outdoor living concept. The house is nestled between a large garden and a restored riparian zone (creek) on the other side. In 2022 a second story was built that added more living and sleeping spaces as well as outdoor balcony and heated terrace and views to the ocean and the mountain.

The heart of the house is the well-equipped open kitchen. The features include; a vegetable sink with filtered water, all stainless appliances and easy open layout with plenty of work stations so your guest are free to pitch in. The connecting dining and living rooms open out onto both patio and deck for seamless outdoor living.

There are three private bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms. The primary bedroom (#1) downstairs has a king-size bed, a double shower and adjoining home office with monitor and door to the deck. Bedroom (#2) downstairs has queen bed with private bathroom and Dutch door, opening to the creek side. The upstairs primary bedroom (#4) has king size bed, private bathroom, cathedral ceiling and views to the mountain.

There are three more sleeping arrangements that can be semi-private or private. The coop (bedroom # 3), is a super fun two-story space with French doors to the exterior, a twin, a trundle, and convertible full on first level. In addition, this space has a delightful lofted platform on the second level with a twin bed and views of the coast to the south. This room is an ideal bunkroom for early risers because it also has the interior stairs to the second level. The big room (bedroom #5) includes cathedral ceilings, view to ocean, two sofas with memory foam mattresses; an open lofted space with two queens; and en-suite bathroom. This airy space is also connected to the terrace with outdoor stairs connecting back to main living space. Lastly, the sofa in the living room downstairs folds out into a queen. This room has heavy velvet curtains for privacy from dining room and kitchen.

The original house was constructed with universal design standards: level-in access; bathroom sink, tub, shower and toilet all discretely designed for wheel chair access. More highlights include: radiant floor heat throughout, gas fire place, outdoor gas fire pit, nine exterior doors for easy access to the outside spaces, sky lights for light-filled house, laundry, outdoor spa and two outdoor showers.

The ideal location, private setting, and generous spaces of The Coop will help you create your next unforgettable Stinson experience.

Beautiful May Trip to Stinson

We came for a wedding with 5 couples and the house was perfectly set up to accommodate our group. The kitchen was fully stocked and the entire house was clean. Everything in Stinson is just a few minutes walk away. Don was a very responsive host and was kind enough to ship some items we had forgotten at the house.

Fabulous Stinson Beach House

Absolutely wonderful beach house at Stinson Beach! Lots of room for the entire family (we had a group of 6 adults and two granddaughters 6 and 3). Each couple had their own space and bathroom! The house was perfectly situated for a large group. Just a brief walk to the beach. Loved the hot tub and outdoor entertaining area. We even brought our dog. Don was a wonderful host and available if we had any questions. We will be back again :) Thank you Don for a perfect beach birthday celebration in your beautiful beach house!

Beautiful home close to beach and town

The house is wonderful and giant. This house is on one of the private roads that ends in the beach and is perfect for easy visits with small kids to the beach. It is also close enough to town for adults to walk easily and kids to go via the beach without having to move cars. There are many different areas to spend time as a group or have privacy. The house was super clean and exactly as described!

Great House,

Great house and excellent location. There were 8 of us and everyone enjoyed the stay. The house is very comfortable, plenty of beds for the group and the kitchen was well stocked. Something you don't often see in rented properties. Don, the owner, was very easy to contact and responsive to our questions and comments. We would do it again!.

Perfect, spacious beach house

This is an enormous place; unfortunately we couldn’t get a big group together this time. Short walk to the beach or shopping. Super quiet. Works well even in cold weather with a hot tub, outdoor fire pit, and gas fireplace indoors. Friendly and helpful owner.

Family Celebration

Great location … close to the beach and to town. Plenty of beds and sleeper sofas. Really comfy gathering space for old and young. Clean finishes and easy to keep neat. Outdoor showers were great. We were there with our four daughters and their husbands along with 7 grands (8-18) and 2 small dogs. We all loved it!!!! Thank you!

Wonderful Property!

Very nice, clean, spacious and comfortable! We stayed just after Christmas and through New Years and it turned out to be a perfect vacation. Right near the beach, just a few steps away, and good surfing too. We were especially surprised and delighted to find a fully lit and sparkling 8-foot CHRISTMAS TREE waiting for us on our arrival. The hot tub was a welcome treat after our various outdoor adventures. Thank you so much, Don, we had an excellent stay 💜

Dynamite beach spot

The Coop was an incredible stay! It is spacious, clean, and full of amenities. Location couldn’t be better—it’s a one-minute walk to the beach. You can also walk to the shops and restaurants in 5 minutes. It was in a quiet neighborhood. We particularly enjoyed the sound system in the communal areas and outside; the variety of seating inside and outside; the updated bathrooms and kitchen; and the event-friendliness of the rental. We hosted 30 people for an afternoon event, and it was perfect. Don was a great host. He always responded immediately to our texts. Overall, it was amazing! We highly recommend staying here!!

Mom and Dad Plus 3 Daughters Family Vacation

Unbelievable! As a former 26-year resident of Stinson Beach, I was familiar with the town . . . but Not this house. It met all our needs - close to "downtown", the Park, the Beach! Roomy, lots of space inside and out! The one concern going in: the weather! It turned out to be sunny everyday - with low tides available for perfect running and exploration. I also can't thank the owner enough - for the attention to details and the flexibility (one dog added). It was definitely a Privilege to live on his property!

Everyone had a comfy place to sleep, there were lots of cute spaces to hang out outside, the beach was nearby, and the house had everything we needed. Don was an especially kind and responsive host.

Family get together

We gathered for almost a week at Don’s solar powered beach house to celebrate my father’s 80th birthday with our extended family and it was just the place for our group to spend that time. Beds were all very comfortable. Especially the pullout couches! They had memory foam! I slept on them all but one night and must say I woke up very well rested without any of the typical aches and pains from normal sofa beds. The kitchen was well stocked,

Excellent setting for a family retreat

Our family (ranging from 3 to 70 years) has one an annual retreat for seven years. This year we selected Solar-Powered Dream Vacation Property for a five-night stay. We had a wonderful stay and the house won many votes for the ‘best ever’.Check-in was easy and the house was very clean when we arrived. There was a small issue with the hot tub Don had the technician there with a few hours to resolve it. We found the house extremely well equipped (linens, beach towels and toys, games/puzzles/toys, kitchen pots, pans, and utensils, etc.). The kitchen was extremely functional and cooked all meals at the house and shared the large dining table. The location is very convenient with loads of parking. The beach was less than a five-minute walk and we took full advantage. Even though there are houses nearby, the house was extremely quiet and peaceful. There are numerous comfortable places for folks to gather or to have alone time. Most of the house has been recently redone and was inviting and comfortable.Unfortunately, now we have to decide whether to rebook for next year (would be a first) or keep trying new places.

Perfect Family Reunion

My husband and I hosted our 4 daughters, 4 sons-in-laws and 5 grandchildren ages 1-5 for 5 nights of beach fun!! Four en suite bedrooms, one with a comfy pull-out couch (all with beautiful hotel-like bathrooms) were perfect for the parents and their littles. My husband and I gave up bedroom privacy but still enjoyed excellent twin mattresses (and sleep) in the “stairway” access room! Doors and walls provided excellent sound barriers so adults could party after littles went to bed. Outside patio was perfect. Kitchen had everything needed for meal preparation. Large fridge and ample freezer space. Excellent washer and dryer. Steps from the ocean and sand!! Seashell hunting is abundant. And lastly, a short walk from town with restaurants and kid park!! House owner available for text answers when needed. We will be back!!
