3 Bedroom Place in Lagunitas

Just 45 minutes from the Golden Gate Bridge, come to Marin Castle for a serene escape from the everyday. Stay for a week and immerse yourself in all the wonders North Bay has to offer, or plan a weekend staycation to relax and enjoy breathtaking views from Samuel Taylor park’s highest point.
Step inside the castle, and you’ll be welcomed by a spacious yet cozy interior that marries modern design with vintage castle charm. Each room has large windows with mountain and forest views, in addition to air conditioning and heating to keep you comfortable.
The kitchen is fully equipped with double stove, induction stovetop, microwave, fridge, and dishwasher, in addition to a coffee machine and a waffle maker.
Want to relax after a long day out? There are two Roku TVs, and the game room features an air hockey table and a wide selection of board games.
Take advantage of Mt Barnabe's dark skies at night. Stargaze next to heaters from couches on the deck. During solar storms, you might even catch a glimpse of the aurora borealis.
Retire each evening to luxurious memory foam beds. The castle comfortably sleeps 6 adults and can accommodate up to 8 guests:
- Master bedroom downstairs with a king-size bed and ensuite bath; additional twin bed in reading nook
- Queen-size bed in the main floor bedroom
- King-size bed in the upstairs loft
- Sofa bed in the living room
