Waking to the view of the green hills was amazing. I opted for a massage, which far exceeded my expectations. David is a skilled practitioner who asked detailed questions about what I preferred and about "problem areas". He addressed those areas in a way that provided wonderful relief. The hosts were communicative, personable and thoughtful. ##### DC S.

I had a lovely getaway at the Enchanted Waterfall Sanctuary. The hosts live upstairs with their toddler but the rental was totally private and relaxing with amazing views and a great hot tub. I used the office nook to catch up on some work (great fast WiFi) and enjoyed reading my book with some tea in the lounge area. The bed was very comfortable and I slept like a rock. Looking out at Mt. Tam and the forested valley while soaking in the hot tub was a highlight as well as walking to Cascade Falls down the road. This is a true hidden gem in Mill Valley and I look forward to returning for another visit to rest and recharge soon. ##### Sam S.

Super peaceful and beautiful property, exactly as the photos depicted. The host was very communicative and helpful, warm and friendly! I don’t have a car but walking to and from the charming downtown area was pretty easy and close to the Old Mill Park that is an access point to the Dipsea trail. Very clean dwelling throughout and with quality furniture (including the bed and linens!) Also, ZERO mosquitoes during my stay! ##### Annie W. Stayed 4 nights in Sep 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Colette K. 17 Sept 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Magical environment and views As soon as I park my car and unpack.. I was immediately transported to rest! The smell of the redwoods filled my nose as I laid on the bed that boasted the views of the valley and felt like I was deep into the woods, yet, right near everything. The bedding made it difficult for me to leave my bed, plus with the view, I truly enjoyed a slow wake up in the morning. The hot tub was exceptional and with the cold plunge right next to it.. I was able to work out some kinks in my tight muscles. Having a kitchen full of equipment allowed me to eat and snack and not have to look for any plates, etc. The various seating areas (in door and out) allowed me to have various prospective of the amazing views. Jena is an amazing host. Being available for anything I needed is a plus of having the host inside. I left rested and relaxed and looking forward to planning my next escape there! ##### Colette K. Stayed 1 night in Sep 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Oksana 17 Dec 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Balm for heart and spirit My stay at the sanctuary was nothing short of a balm for my heart and spirit, a place where beauty and tranquility wove themselves into every corner. From the moment I entered, I could feel the peacefulness of the energy, light and soothing, as though the space itself were alive with harmony. Every detail of its design was crafted with such exquisite care and attention, blending comfort with artistry in a way that felt almost otherworldly. It wasn’t just my body that found rest here, but my heart and soul too, cradled in a rare ease I had long yearned for. To sit in the hot tub, enveloped in warmth while gazing out over the canyon’s mesmerizing expanse, was an experience I will carry with me always—a moment of pure connection with nature and stillness, as if time itself had paused to offer me this gift. The sanctuary’s energy felt ethereal, infused with lightness. The soft whites that filled the space, the plush carpet beneath my feet, and the gentle touches of thoughtful design all combined to create an atmosphere of subtle grace. It was the delicate nuances that truly elevated the experience: a freshly prepared bouquet of flowers left on the table, a small offering of care that spoke directly to the soul. I left deeply satisfied, as though I had been transported to a higher vibrational plane of existence—one where rest is sacred and beauty nourishes not only the body but the spirit. ##### Oksana Stayed 1 night in Dec 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kristen T. 28 Sept 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Sweet and charming place to stay, very Marin in all the right ways. If you don’t mind a bit of uphill walking coming back up, it’s a very nice stroll to the shops and restaurants.

Jena created the perfect environment for this kind or work.The rooms are very clean and comfortable. The environment is inspiring -- the shift from morning, fog covered hills to warm sunny afternoons was beautiful and modeled the transformation I was seeking.Having full access to the large hot tub offered me even deeper relaxation.Working with Jena was a pleasure. The entire process was simple. ##### John S. Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Rachel R. 6 Oct 2025 Liked: Check-in, communication Disliked: Listing accuracy This is a beautiful little place for sure, but falsely advertised with buzzwords like "lover's getaway, retreat, tranquil, etc. It's basically a hillside apartment with eastern spa-like decor, and while entirely pleasing in both aesthetic and ammenity, there's simply no hiding that you are in fact smack in the middle of West Coast suburbia with a family living above. We were disturbed numerous times by sounds from upstairs, a chainsaw off in the distance during the morning, distant party music at night, and a racoon disturbance while in the hot tub. At the end of our stay, the shower drain backed up leaving a mess of mud. The host was responsive at moments when we reached out. Overall, we feel this is a lovely place and could certainly be a 5 star location, but it's oversold as a spalike getaway and falls short of the description given. Ultimately for us, we were looking for a tranquil getaway, and were greatly let down. ##### Rachel R.

The place is cozy, comfortable, private, and very clean. A wonderful space to disconnect and find peace in nature. The host put so much care into creating a relaxing environment with lovely touches and amenities throughout the home and gave easy to follow instructions for parking and local activities. The location was perfect, just a few minutes from the cute downtown mill valley, Muir Woods, and San Francisco. It was also super dog-friendly with a big backyard that our pup loved! We had a wonderful time and will definitely back to this one of a kind forest retreat! ##### monica ### 4/10 Poor #### Ray H. 9 Dec 2024 Liked: Location Disliked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, listing accuracy #### Not as listed Property had beautiful views, however it was actually the basement of another house. Had to walk down steep hill to enter house ( very difficult with luggage). Owner said “ I usually communicate better with my guest”.

The living room does look like it's pictures and the outdoor space is nice... but for the crazy rates they charge per night it is definitely not worth it. We almost left early. First part is how this is falsely listed as an "entire apartment." This is NOT a separate apartment, it is someone's basement. There is a stairwell inside that goes right upstairs that's just covered with a curtain and all of the air vents are connected. You can hear EVERYTHING going on upstairs, so it does not feel private or relaxing. They call this "light pitter patter" on the listing, but you could hear a pin drop on the floor. On top of the lack of privacy, they were playing instruments, hanging out on the patio, and making a lot of noise late at night. 2nd issue is that the hot tub didn't work. The jets wouldn't stay on for more than a few minutes at a time and the hot tub wouldn't get hot.. just lukewarm. 3rd issue there was a huge ant infestation. We woke up in the morning to HUNDREDS of ants in the kitchen, in the trash, in our food. They were crawling up my legs as I was trying to do the dishes. It was disgusting. 4th issue is communication. I would ask a question on VRBO and she would respond via email, outside of the app. Including her "giving me notice" that they would be noisy at night. I'm not checking my email on Friday nights so obviously none of that was seen until after the trip. Overall, would not recommend. ##### Andrew Stayed 1 night in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Bruny 1 Nov 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, communication ##### Bruny Stayed 1 night in Oct 2025 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Romantic Couples Cabin near Park Gate Entrance to Sequoia Nat'l Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Fresno-Hotels-Romantic-Couples-Cabin-Near-Park-Gate-Entrance-To-Sequoia-Natl-Park.h33495653.Hotel-Information) > > [Agua Caliente Casino Rancho Mirage](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Agua-Caliente-Resort-Casino-Spa-Rancho-Mirage.h2020169.Hotel-Information) > > [Carmel Valley Ranch, in The Unbound Collection by Hyatt](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Monterey-Hotels-Carmel-Valley-Ranch.h423710.Hotel-Information) > > [Sea Mountain Inn Nude Resort and Spa - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Sea-Mountain-Inn-Nude-Resort-Adults-Only.h27490625.Hotel-Information) > > [Multi-Family A-Frame Cabin: 9 Beds + Lake Access + AC](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Lake-Arrowhead-Hotels-Summer-A-Frame-Cabin-Lake-Access-AC.h79186206.Hotel-Information) > > [The Sandman Santa Rosa Sonoma, an Ascend Collection Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Santa-Rosa-Hotels-The-Sandman.h919721.Hotel-Information) > > [Sacred Sands](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Joshua-Tree-Hotels-Sacred-Sands.h39764924.Hotel-Information) > > [HYATT house Pleasant Hill](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Concord-Hotels-HYATT-House-Pleasant-Hill.h890952.Hotel-Information) > > [Sea Otter Inn](https://www.expedia.co.uk/San-Simeon-Hotels-Sea-Otter-Inn.h898589.Hotel-Information) > > [Cambria Beach Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/San-Simeon-Hotels-Cambria-Beach-Lodge.h1101749.Hotel-Information) > > [Red Hawk Resort & Casino](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Placerville-Hotels-Red-Hawk-Resort-Casino.h97119811.Hotel-Information) > > [Omni Rancho Las Palmas Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Omni-Rancho-Las-Palmas-Resort-Spa.h1703.Hotel-Information) > > [Onsen Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Desert-Hot-Springs-Hotels-Onsen-Hotel-Spa.h90453043.Hotel-Information) > > [Spyglass Inn](https://www.expedia.co.uk/San-Luis-Obispo-Hotels-Spyglass-Inn.h41235.Hotel-Information) > > [Carmel Mission Inn](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Monterey-Hotels-Carmel-Mission-Inn.h21218.Hotel-Information) > > [Hampton Inn by Hilton Irvine Spectrum/Lake Forest](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Lake-Forest-Hotels-Hampton-Inn-Lake-Forest-Irvine-Spectrum.h50896869.Hotel-Information) > > [Hill House Inn](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Mendocino-Hotels-Hill-House-Inn.h181081.Hotel-Information) > > [TETRA Hotel, Autograph Collection](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sunnyvale-Hotels-TETRA-Hotel.h59450839.Hotel-Information) > > [The Spring Resort and Spa - Adults only](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Palm-Springs-Hotels-The-Spring-Resort-And-Spa-Adults-Only.h1170567.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Vacation Club Lake Tahoe Resort South](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Lake-Tahoe-Hotels-Lake-Tahoe-Vacation-Resort-By-Diamond-Resorts.h64098.Hotel-Information) > > [Cottage Inn By The Sea](https://www.expedia.co.uk/San-Luis-Obispo-Hotels-Cottage-Inn-By-The-Sea.h150921.Hotel-Information) > > [Melody Ranch Motel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/San-Luis-Obispo-Hotels-Melody-Ranch-Motel.h10080334.Hotel-Information) > > [Pea Soup Andersen's Inn](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Santa-Barbara-Hotels-Pea-Soup-Andersens-Inn.h19331.Hotel-Information) > > [DoubleTree by Hilton Buena Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Buena-Park-Hotels-DoubleTree-By-Hilton-Buena-Park.h12753.Hotel-Information) > > [Two Bunch Palms Spa Resort - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Two-Bunch-Palms-Spa-Resort-Adults-Only.h1338988.Hotel-Information) > > [Aqua Soleil Hotel & Mineral Water Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Aqua-Soleil-Hotel-Mineral-Water-Spa.h1870567.Hotel-Information) > > [La Quinta Resort & Club, Curio Collection by Hilton](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Palm-Springs-Hotels-La-Quinta-Resort-Club.h10916.Hotel-Information) > > [JW Marriott Desert Springs Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Palm-Springs-Hotels-JW-Marriott-Desert-Springs-Resort-Spa.h17123.Hotel-Information) > > [SeaCrest OceanFront Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/San-Luis-Obispo-Hotels-SeaCrest-OceanFront-Hotel.h1365352.Hotel-Information) ---
