We were only there one night for a seminar in San Anselmo. The studio apartment was clean and pleasant and walking distance to to town and restaurants. We were very comfortable.

Charming stay in beautiful Larkspur
This was just the experience I was hoping for. The property is right next to the main stretch of a lovely little town with lots of restaurants and a surprising number of unique clothing stores. Allison was so responsive when I locked myself out at 6:30 am. The garden was beautiful with full pear and apple trees. It was quiet and peaceful.

A touch of Provence in Larkspur, Ca.
My husband and I were looking to escape our summer San Francisco's fog and found this oasis, a touch of Provence, France, in Larkspur. We stayed in a little Victorian house, beautifully decorated, among olive, apple and pear trees. This location offers quiet tranquility and is 3 minutes away by foot from the town of Larkspur. The owner, Allison is absolutely charming, warm and very helpful. We highly recommend her place and hope to be back. I & R.
