FAQs

  • We recommend everyone stays in Stinson Beach, a quiet hamlet a 15 minute drive from the wedding venue. We’re excited to have all of our people concentrated in our favorite stretch of California’s coast.

    We've put together a list below of recommended lodging (scroll down to see more).

    FYI - we’ll be offering a shuttle from Stinson Beach to and from the venue on the day of the wedding.

  • San Francisco (SFO) and Oakland (OAK) airports are both 1hr from Stinson Beach.

  • We recommend renting a car. There is so much to explore within a 20 minute drive of Stinson Beach - great hiking, beautiful coastline, delicious oysters, and more.

    Heads up - the coastal route (CA Route 1) into Stinson Beach is not for the fainthearted. Winding, cliffside turns, but a beautiful drive.

    There is an inland alternative route via Panoramic Highway.

  • We’ll be arranging a shuttle from Stinson Beach to take you to and from the wedding - exact pick-up location to be confirmed.

    We strongly recommend against driving yourself to the wedding - the road from Stinson Beach to the Inn is no joke, and won’t be easier late at night!

    We’ll post the shuttle schedule closer to the wedding date.

  • See something you like? We recommend you book at least four months in advance- there is limited lodging in the Stinson Beach area.

    That said, many Airbnbs and VRBOs are not bookable until 6 months in advance - check back in July to see what’s available, or contact the host if you really have the hots for a place.
