Mill Valley is one of Metro San Francisco's treasured communities. Located north of the city in Marin County near San Francisco and San Pablo bays and the majestic Pacific Ocean, Mill Valley is known for its quaint charm, natural beauty and flavorful cultural events.

Mill Valley, an Alpine-like village located high up on the shoulders of Mt. Tam is primarily made up of artists and professionals. Here, towering redwoods are woven throughout the neighborhoods giving you the feeling of being far away from the hustle and bustle of the big city. Mill Valley is bordered on three sides by breathtaking parklands. To the south rests the Marin Headlands, which is part of the Golden Gate National Recreation Area. Muir Woods National Monument is on the west, and Mt. Tamalpais State Park is on the north. As a result, Mill Valley residents consider these their back yards and consider themselves stewards of their environment. Hiking, bicycling, and horseback riding are all enjoyed throughout the year.

In the fall visitors come here for the Mill Valley Fall Arts Festival at Old Mill Park, featuring a diverse selection of juried arts and crafts, entertainment, and food concessions.
