Mountain Home Inn - Historic Ridgeline Hotel Bordering Muir Woods with Panoramic Bay Views

Perched atop a Mt. Tamalpais ridgeline at 810 Panoramic Highway, this historic Mill Valley hotel features 10 rustic guestrooms with sunrise views overlooking San Francisco Bay. The Mountain Home Inn's largest accommodations include king beds, fireplaces, Jacuzzi tubs, high-speed WiFi, and Smart HDTVs, while standard rooms offer more intimate quarters. A sun-drenched terrace sits 900 feet above Mill Valley, complemented by a full-service restaurant and bar serving regional wines. Hiking trails fan out directly from Mountain Home Inn's doorstep, connecting to Muir Woods National Monument and its ancient redwood groves. The property maintains pesticide-free gardens and provides locally-made organic toiletries. Located just 20 minutes from the Golden Gate Bridge, the inn offers direct access to the West Marin Stagecoach transit service and sits 31 mile from San Francisco International Airport.

Pros

Direct trail access to Muir Woods and Mt. Tamalpais State Park's extensive network of hiking paths

Historic significance as one of Marin County's oldest continuously operating restaurants

All rooms feature mountain or bay views from the elevated ridgeline location

Eco-friendly practices including organic toiletries and pesticide-free grounds

Cons

Standard rooms are notably small and basic

Limited on-site dining options outside of continental breakfast

“Nestled high on Mt. Tamalpais, this inn offers views that genuinely capture the grandeur of the San Francisco Bay. Its historic charm and ideal perch beside hiking trails and local culinary spots make it uniquely Mill Valley. I think it will especially appeal to couples seeking a romantic getaway immersed in nature.”
