We had a great time at the Secret Garden Cottage and recommend it highly. The place was immaculate and decorated with taste, and not overly decorated. The grounds were magnificent and the keepers were extremely friendly and helpful. A great place to get away from it all.

Oct. 3, 2011 The reality definitely exceeded our expectations (and they were high after seeing the website). We both feel 30 lbs. lighter just from letting go of the stress of everyday life - and that happened about 2 seconds after walking thru the gates. I will take with me the sights, sounds (hummingbird wings) and wonderful aromas of your... More

The setting is fabulous. The inn keepers are friendly and helpful. The space is light and clean and comfortable , with ironed sheets on the bed and breakfast fixing in the frig. The garden surrounded deck is a perfect place to spend the morning sipping coffee or the afternoon reading a book. The outdoor claw foot bathtub ( with hot... More

My husband and I have stayed at the Secret Garden Cottage several times over the past few years, and we always find our stays very relaxing. The cottage gardens are absolutely stunning, and the soaking hut is lovely after hiking in Pt. Reyes. The cottage is immaculate and cozy, with a beautiful view of Tomales Bay. We have stayed during... More

When visiting the Bay Area we usually stay in San Francisco and make excursions to outlying areas, particularly the wineries. On our last trip we decided to include a brief stay in Marin County, wanting to take advantage of the hiking, kayaking, and beach combing that's easily accessible. After perusing hotels, motels and B and B's, we stumbled on the... More

I can't recommend this venue highly enough to do it justice. My wife and I spent several of the most relaxing days we have ever had at this wonderful site. The single cottage has an open floor-plan and is surrounded by a beautiful garden. Although the owners' house is nearby, there is absolute privacy. The slowly running fountains in the... More
