Been here 10+ times
Enjoying your visit in the Marin Headlands? Then spent the night at the Marin Headlands Hostel on Rosenstock Rd! Dorms, private rooms... It's a great place to stay, & cheap too!

La vue sur le golden gate pour commencer. Différents endroits pour s’assoir, s’installer pour la journée, faire un BBQ et profiter du défilé de chiens très bien élevés 🤣 Prévoir une petite laine
