House holiday rentals in Novato

Amazing retreat in the Redwoods - the property is quiet, has beautiful views of the redwoods with both outdoor sun and shade spots, and has a cool interior. Pool was perfect for cooling off on a hot day. I would stay again! We stayed in May, and while the yard was mowed, it had a type of grass that was very prickly so not barefoot or dog friendly - so we weren’t fully able to enjoy the expansive yard space.

What a lovely house! In particular we enjoyed the expansive and fully-fenced outdoor space with our doggos and kiddos - pictures don't really quite do it justice. The pool house worked as a separate nest for the teenagers, while adults used the two bedrooms in the main building. Location is pretty perfect, with just a 5min drive to Sonoma downtown and easy access to main roads. Our host was extremely communicative, and even helped return an item we forgot at the house promptly and without delay. Hope to visit again!

The Hidden Gem is what it truly is…..a hidden gem! So beautifully decorated and furnished and so private. You are surrounded by lush greenery and complete quiet except for the birds and the rooster. What you saw on line in pictures is exactly what you got. We all enjoyed every minute. Thank you again for helping to make our niece’s graduation event so memorable. Nancy was great in her responsiveness. Would highly recommend.

10/10 I stayed here with my girlfriend and my dog and it was really peaceful and had a great time,the pool and jacuzzi was amazing and the house was really clean🙌🏽😄

Our stay was absolutely perfect. Excellent location inside the Silverado Golf Resort. Very peaceful and safe. Neighbors were all very friendly. Excellent location near Yountville restaurants, and all of wine country. Absolutely spotless Airbnb, perfectly described and we will stay here every time in the future.

Bill is an incredible host! He is so kind and responsive, always trying to make your stay 10/10. The house is absolutely beautiful, peaceful, spotlessly clean, and well-stocked. If you want a truly peaceful and relaxing place to stay, with a kind and attentive host, this is the place you should stay!

Matthew’s home exceeded expectations and was incredibly cozy, private, spacious, clean, and spa-like. It was luxurious! It was very pet-friendly, I brought my Labrador with me and he loved lounging on the deck. The weather subsided (though I love the rain) all day Friday to allow for an entire day outdoors! The hot tub was clean and instructions were easy to follow. I loved that Matthew included local recommended spots to check out— I went to Russian River Brewing and Pacific Markets— both great spots with ample walking areas. The home decor is unique and has such character and charm without feeling like you’re stepping into “Magnolia Farms”— so far from it! There are beautiful works of art, antiques, classic and contemporary books; it’s lovely. Matthew is a responsive and kind, generous host. I found my stay tranquil and will be staying again as well as recommending to others! Matthew, thank you for providing a wonderful space for others to enjoy! All my best! Kaitlin & Buddy.

Our stay worked great for the 3 days of golfing. We were able to use the hot tub in the evening and the place had all the amenities we needed. Kitchen was well equipped and clean when we arrived. The house had lots of space to kick out and relax. It is defiantly a feel at home place and things are well kept. Nicole was always quick to respond to any question we had. Great host!

This little treehouse cottage was a fantastic stay, and a beautiful home! Everything was clean, and it had a cozy bed, great water pressure, and dedicated parking; all huge benefits. Not a bad drive into San Francisco. Wish we could have stayed longer!

This home has the most beautiful views and the house is wonderful as well. The furnishings were cozy, clean and comfortable. We had a fantastic stay and wished we could stay longer. Would definitely stay again if we are ever back in the area.

What an incredible home! Beautiful location and close to great hiking trails. Kathleen was a great host!

An ideal relaxing place right by a beach oasis. Sigward was really thoughtful about our stay and overall experience. Will definitely come back and would recommend to anyone.

We stayed at Paula's house for almost 4 months. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at Paula’s. Paula is super attentive. My flight arrived late, and she carefully and thoughtfully asked me what I wanted her to buy at the grocery store so that when I arrived at the house the supplies would be ready. The house is wonderful, clean, with lots of light, very spacious and comfortable, particularly the bed on which I slept soundly every night, the closet was ample sized, spacious fully equipped kitchen, large bathrooms, spacious and comfortable living rooms, it has a deck on the front and there is a sunny back deck too. The house is very well furnished. You won't miss anything. A peaceful and spectacular place to relax. It has excellent energy. Paula is friendly and provides great hospitality. Always kind, easy to communicate and helpful. Staying there was like being in a home away from home. I would return a thousand times with a light heart full of gratitude.

Great stay! The host was very communicative and helpful, offering great local recommendations. The backyard was a perfect spot to relax, and the location is super walkable to downtown. Bonus points for being dog-friendly—our pup loved it too!

This was one of the best stays we’ve experienced! The house was spacious and very comfortable and the garden outside was gorgeous. It was very secluded, quiet, and peaceful—we hope to come back!

We were in the area for a wedding and wanted a place that our family (8 of us) could be together and hang out but also with areas to rest if needed. This home provided that and more! Plenty of options for us all to gather inside and out. So many TVs and a nice assortment of games also. We all enjoyed sitting outside to chat and enjoy the peacefulness of the water and surrounding area. The kitchen was wonderful, easy to prepare meals and we enjoyed the surprise in the fridge. All the bedrooms were spacious and comfortable - loved the fans in every room. Plenty of sparkling clean bathrooms that we could all get ready without any issues. Would highly recommend this home if traveling to the area. Easy access to the highway and shopping center.

Our stay at Hillary and Jim’s was nothing short of amazing. We underestimated just how great our stay would be. The views were absolutely stunning! The hosts were humble, sweet, attentive and give you plenty of privacy. The cleaners do a wonderful job, I was thrilled to hop in the Japanese soaking tub knowing it was clean. Location felt safe and was conveniently located in an upscale neighborhood just outside San Francisco. The weather here is amazing, significantly warmer than the city with less intense wind-plus it’s pretty much fog free! It was perfect coming back from long days in San Francisco to easy parking, a beautiful garden walk down to the bungalow, moon/bridge views over the water and peace of mind you and your belongings are in a safe place. We can’t wait to come back! *China town, palace of fine arts, go car tours, Alcatraz island, hop on hop off bus tours and pier 39 sea lion watching were all hits. McNears park is definitely worth the couple minute drive as well!

We had an amazing stay at Casita Casita, the kids had so much fun in the pool and the kitchen was beautiful. On the last day, my six year old didn’t want to leave, she said she wished we could live there forever. It was super clean and when I did have a question, Courtney replied almost immediately. She was super great to work with, she sent us the house guide before our arrival and it included food recommendations. There was also a book printed guide which we actually referenced a lot! So that was helpful. The location is EXTREMELY walkable, we had fun walking to local shops and restaurants and the local park and bocci ball court.

It was so wonderful in the Treehouse! We will be back - we had wonderful family time with two grown kids (following our son's college graduation!). We love Marin County and the scenery, hiking, towns, food, sunshine was restorative. Truly, though, the house was the star - cozy but plenty of room, beautifully appointed and decorated, amazing location and views, walk to town and trails with expansive views ... we can't wait to be there again! Thank you so much Liz!

Wow - we had an amazing stay and loved Job's beautiful home. The photos barely capture the incredible views. 180 degrees views of Mt. Tam all the way down to the Bay - truly on top of world. Pool was bigger than expected, warm water, great covered porch, VERY nice pool house/bedroom & bath. All beds were super comfortable, everything sparkling clean and living room was such a great and comfy area to watch movies or just look at the view with a good book. Kitchen is outfitted (and labeled) with everything you need. Very close to San Anslemo downtown - which is filled with great lunch spots, coffee shops. So much to do in Marin and this is centrally located (note a steep driveway but we had no issues.) Can't think of a single improvement Job could make. I left something behind and he responded that day that he would ship back to me. One of our most favorite Airbnbs ever. THANK YOU!

What an absolute pleasure to stay at Jewel on the Avenue!! The house is beautifully decorated and has everything you could want for a group get away. It’s also perfectly located near downtown. We were initially using San Anselmo as a home base to visit a couple places around the area but we ended up spending a good amount of time downtown. San Anselmo is so lovely!! We will definitely be back. Thank you thank you to our wonderful hosts Geri & Laura!!!

I can not say enough about how rejuvinating it was to stay at Matt's stunning home in Mill Valley. Our ONLY regret was that we did not stay for long enough. Matt is extremely kind, open and responsive. Waking up in the trees, taking a dip in the tub with morning coffee, and watching the deer walk by was our favorite past time. We took afternoon walks along the tree lined trail right in the back yard which was an incredible perk. Once you are there, you never truly never want to leave. The beds are extremely comfortable, water pressure is great and the home is stocked with all the amenities you might need. We stopped at Whole Foods on our way in to stock up for the first few meals --- we were so glad we did that and highly recommend. The house is located up the winding roads and then 100 stairs to climb up, but that is what makes it the spectaular experience it is. We can't wait to get back. Thank you, Matt!

Loved the inside and the outside space. Living room and kitchen and dining were spacious, we (family of 6) made breakfast everyday and then enjoyed relaxing in the beautiful backyard. My father loved the backyard and spent all his mornings there before and after breakfast

This was a once in a life time experience. The house was amazing, as beautiful as the picture. There were more than enough kitchen towels, bath towel, blankets, sitting and sleeping space. The house was huge, outstanding architecture, and right in front of the bay. The best part was that we thought it was going to be cold and ocean waves too loud, however, it was perfect, calm flowing water and fresh cool air. Peaceful and cheerful ambiance. We were blessed to have this experience. Check out was a breeze. There was a few minor findings that Kyle was able to address immediately. We will definitely come back again, if we can afford it.
