Pt Reyes Cottage Retreat at the Bay

Bliss out at Point Reyes National Seashore. Our fully-equipped, luxurious studio cottage sits on the edge of Tomales Bay where great blue heron, egrets, fox and deer roam. Watch the tide, listen to frogs chorus in springtime, or head out to Point Reyes National Seashore, three miles south. Dine and shop in charming Point Reyes Station, walking distance from the cottage. The gorgeous, spacious cottage has a full kitchen, plush furnishings, hot tub, barbecue and total privacy. Great for couples or your private retreat.

We loved our stay in Pt Reyes. The weather did not cooperate- we were there during an Atmospheric River. But this unit was cozy enough that we made a fun indoor day with movies and puzzles. We would definitely stay here again

I can’t say enough about how amazing this cottage is. It’s quiet, cozy, comfortable, well maintained. The decor is right up my alley. The owners were very responsive when we had a minor problem that was quickly resolved. We had a wonderful time and look forward to coming back! Wish I could give ten stars!

What a great location. Close to all that is special about the Point Reyes/Inverness area. The accommodations were fantastic. Very comfortable and well appointed with everything we needed. It was very difficult to leave at the end of our stay. Great host. We'd love to come back.

The cottage is large and very comfortable. There are a lot of different sitting areas both inside and outside to enjoy the views of the private backyard. The kitchen was well equipped and the bathroom was clean. We enjoyed the stay.

Absolutely fabulous. The quiet the gardens the sun the privacy the stars the tub the kitchen and most of all the owners are so warm and obviously proud of their property. The only negative is leaving 😕

The place was beautiful and so well maintained. Nice light both morning and evening. Only comment for us elder travelers . . . the TV and music system operated off of computer/other equipment the guest brought and cabled to their TV/music. Naturally, that's not the way we usually travel so just enjoyed quiet evening relaxing and reading and talking instead. Not such a bad idea.

Cute little cottage. Beautifully appointed. On the outskirts of Pt Reyes Station. Would have loved the garden to be taken care of but otherwise it was delightful.

This cottage was in a very quiet neighborhood, within walking distance of Pt. Reyes downtown area. It was nicely and comfortably furnished, and the kitchen was well stocked. We had come to hike, and we had lots of very scenic choices. The owners were right next door, but we would not have known they were there, especially with the artfully placed privacy fence. However when the electricity went out in a storm, they were at our door, offering to build us a fire and providing a ladder. We were happy and comfortable there, and we will definitely book again!

We enjoyed the area, the cottage and the spa. We cooked and found the kitchen well supplied and lacking nothing. We were not able to use the microwave, which is old fashioned, but perfectly managed to live without this modernity. The room is spacey, with an excellent collection of books and well designed light system. The wood burning stove makes it cozy. Catherine and John are very hospitable, helpful and friendly. The area is full of great trails and beaches. It is a place to relax and enjoy. Thank you, Catherine and John.

A quiet location in beautiful West Marin County overlooking Tomales Bay. Bountiful birds and animals. Lovely patio area with hot tub. Large studio cottage made cosy with antique and Indonesian furniture, beautiful exotic rugs and an inviting bed with crisp linens and a fluffy duvet. Fully equipped kitchen. Eclectic book collection. Every detail has been considered. Incredibly clean. The absolutely best part is the warmth of hosts Catherine and John. It is evident immediately that they are striving to give their guests not just a bed for the night but an experience of being pampered and cared for.

We just returned for a second stay at this cottage. It's perfect! Everything about it is comfortable. We love the hot tub. The wood stove works well and doesn't leak smoke. There are two good reading seats. The bed is comfy. The bathroom is clean and functional, as well as warm enough... not a given in this chilly climate! There are two tables, so you can leave a puzzle or game set up on one and eat at the other. Kitchen is well equipped. We can't wait to come back! **Note that there is no microwave. There is a large toaster oven with plenty of oven-safe dishes to heat up your leftovers.**

The rental unit was clean, with adequate supplies in the kitchen. The furniture is beautiful, but the overstuffed chairs and sofas were not as comfortable to sit in as I would have liked. The bed was on the small side and less comfortable than we had hoped. As is the case in many of the rental units we have used, the unit was under lit, making it difficult to read at night. The unit felt quite private, despite the fact that there are a number of people living on the property. Hot tube was great !
