Pet Friendly with hiking, biking and relaxation

Looking to get close to nature? Treat yourself! This hilly refuge is a great option for folks wanting to combine working remotely with rest and relaxation. Hiking trails and bike routes originate in our neighborhood. Deer roam freely on the property, sometimes in small herds, and it's a great space for bird watching. The apartment sits on a sunny and rustic one-acre 14 miles North of San Francisco. Off-street enclosed parking. Pets welcome.

This funky and eclectic 600-square-foot apartment is attached to the main house where the hosts live. It has a private entrance as well as a fenced yard and is totally self-contained inside the unit. We're glad to offer this option for those who like to read, work, or simply hang out outside. And of course, it's ideal for those with dogs. The apartment features a sitting room/dining area and kitchenette along with a separate bedroom and bath suite
Wireless access to higher-speed wifi and cable TV. HBO and Showtime are the premium channels (you can watch TV in bed). The kitchenette is small and fully stocked. Suitable for light cooking (heating up take out--morning coffee and tea). There is an induction burner, sink, dorm-style fridge/freezer combo, and microwave/convection oven that works very well for simple cooking and heating up. 1-serving Keurig coffeemaker with both pod and filter function, 2 French press coffeemakers, plug-in kettle, and toaster included. All china, pots, and utensils included as well as kitchen towels and table linens provided.

Full-sized bedroom with a king-sized bed. The dresser has ample space and another set of bed linens provided. The bathroom has a large shower, twin sink vanity, and a large walk-in closet with roomy storage space. Towels are provided.

In addition, we ask you to take this into mind before booking:

*If you are NOT okay with the hosts living on the property during your stay, please book another property on this site.

*Please review the size of the kitchenette to ensure it will meet your needs, especially for longer stays.

*If you have any allergies to pet dander (dogs or cats) you may want to book another reservation. We accept pets and regardless of how deep we clean, sometimes remnants hang in there.

*Rooms are a bit dark due to where the apartment is situated on the property.

*This is an older home built in the 1950s. Some surfaces may be worn and old but they are clean.

* This is not a detached cottage or separate structure; there are shared walls so expect to hear some of the common noises of everyday life like toilets flushing, water running, footfalls, etc.

Cozy, comfortable, and clean
We loved staying at the Sleepy Hollow home. It was spacious enough for us to spread out but cozy enough for us to feel right at home. When my husband and I had Zoom meetings at the same time, we were able to be in separate rooms and undisturbed by the other. Amy and Edgar were friendly, communicative, available, and happy to help. I loved the attention to detail and the extra touches that just made our stay more enjoyable. From the huge king-size bed to the number of seating places and tables to the selection of breakfasts and coffees available to the lovely welcome basket of goodies upon our arrival. We would highly recommend this place to other couples.

This unit is in a beautiful neighborhood. It’s quiet and just what we were looking for. The breakfast goodies and snack basket were an excellent plus. We were pleasantly surprised to see a coyote on the hill the first morning and deer in the driveway later.

Visit for Son graduation
We felt very lucky to find a place to stay within walking distance of our sons home in San Anselmo. The hosts were very easy to communicate and work with. The area that we stayed was clean, friendly quaint, and perfect for our three day stay. The host left breakfast goodies, snacks and fresh flowers on the tables. It was a wonderful place to rest at night, and we will certainly be back the next time we visit our son.

Wonderful stay in Marin County. We had a very pleasing stay with Amy Jo and Edgar. The home is nicely appointed and the hosts provided lots of amenities that made our stay very convenient. The surrounding area is beautiful and we had deer surrounding the home on several evenings. Plenty to see and do around here also!

Quiet, restful property which was just right size for two adults and our pup. In quiet neighborhood but close to shopping, groceries and a wonderful dog park. Very walkable, if you are fit enough to handle the hilly ups & downs of the road Clean, well furnished with amenities.

Sweet jewel in the hills of San Anselmo
I was back in San Francisco for a running event and stayed here for the weekend. The location was perfect for me. I could sit out back and listen to the birds and even saw a buck and female deer on the hill, one evening, at sunset! Very quiet and chill home away from home. It was a cozy, homey, place to arrive after a long journey. Every detail was considered from goodies to local area info and delivery if you desire. I spent one night just watching movies since I had to get up early. Communication was terrific and they were helpful with additional info I was seeking upon arriving about the town. Thank you for sharing your magical place with me!

Quaint and cute
The apartment is part of an old house (like most houses in San Anselmo) but it is very independent of the main house. We had our privacy, also a small yard to let de dogs do their business in the morning. Inside, it was clean and comfortable. Mini fridge, microwave, coffee maker(s), toster. No stove but we were warned about it. No A/C ( you rarely need it in Marin) but 2 fans. Nice bathroom and huge walk-in closet with lot of hangers (yeah). Good, comfortable king sized bed with lots of pillows. The owners were nice and cordial. They made themselves available any time. We were pleasantly surprised with goodies in the fridge fir breakfast and other snacks. Everything reflected very well on the pride and care that the owner put in this place. We will come back and we will recommend it to our friends. Excellent value for the price.

Great place in all ways!
My husband, my dog and I truly enjoyed every bit of our stay in this lovely home. Amy and Edgar are perfect hosts- there when you need them, otherwise non-intrusive; the layout of the house Is fairly miraculous in that the space feels more spacious than the square footage would suggest. The location is also perfect- affording amazing hikes, and easy access to San Fran and other gorgeous Marin activities. I highly recommend everything about this rental.

Homey, comfortable place
Quiet neighborhood, exceptionally welcoming host (personal guided tour of the space upon arrival; and fruit, snack, and drink packages on table and in refrigerator). The place has a comfortable, well-used feel. I would have liked more horizontal surfaces (tabletops, etc.) and more electrical outlets around the rooms for charging a cellphone. I ended up using the extension cord by the bed, but its socket was worn so I had to pay attention when plugging the charger into it. Modern bathroom with big walk-in closet. Unusual large painting covering the door to the fire escape hallway; kind of spooky but not something that prevented me from sleeping.
