Cozy. quiet retreat

The place was just what I was looking for in a solo year-end retreat. Although it was a bit hard to find (the street address doesn't match the Maps address), the owner's description of it did help. Very private and cozy - would make a good romantic getaway or writer's retreat. Great place for nature walks or stargazing far from the madding crowd.

Major Safety Concerns

Something very strange going on here. Upon arrival at the rental, we observed an individual (not the host) entering the rental as it is not locked. They quickly left when we pulled in and asked if we lived there. While bringing in our stuff, the same two individuals approached and ENTERED OUR CABIN, remaining on the property afterward. Sketchy. They spoke about how they knew the host. We immediately contacted the host. The host initially acknowledged that this situation was inappropriate and unacceptable, and stated the individuals on site had been contacting him for several months, adding to our alarm. The following day, the host completely denied to Vrbo that anyone else was on the property. Additionally, the cabin is misrepresented as it is marked as having the entire property to yourself. This is the main reason we booked. However, this is not the case as there is a yurt on the property, which the individuals said they were “trying” to stay in. Again, further adding to the safety concerns. The host refused to refund our stay and we had to pay to book a hotel last minute. “It’s Bolinas, California, what do you expect?”, is a direct quote from the host. I would avoid this place at all costs.

Great little studio in funky Bolinas

This studio is as funky and cool as the town of Bolinas. Great vibe here with lots of windows and sky lights. We loved star gazing from the bed. Just blocks away from Agate Beach and great hiking along coastal bluffs.

Cozy retreat

We loved our stay here. Perfect location for exploring Point Reyes National Seashore. It is worth exploring the neighborhood too — the views of the ocean are magnificent. We didn’t mind the kitchenette and adapted our meals accordingly. It is an open concept bathroom in the middle — not a problem for us. We would definitely return.

Another Amazing Stay

We first stayed here about a year ago and loved it so much we knew we wanted to come back. Sure enough, our second time here was just as magical as the first. We hope to make this trip an annual tradition. Thank you so much for sharing this peaceful, cozy, and wonderfully inviting home, James!

Comfortable Cabin

Cozy and comfortable for me and would be great for two people, but a little crowded for three or more. Everything was in good working condition, clean and sanitary. I enjoyed spending time in the town of Bolinas and the surrounding area was great for hiking and photography.

My time at this Bolinas cottage was exquisite; I had everything I needed for three quiet days of retreat. I loved sitting on the deck soaking up the sun and taking walks to various beaches and cliff top views. Absolutely perfect!

Would come again for a weekend away

It was a lovely stay that was clean, easy to locate, had all of the amenities to feel comfortable and relaxed, and was perfect for having a weekend to get out of dodge. Really a lovely, quaint experience and I could see myself easily drawn back for a break in the daily routine in the future.

Perfect retreat

We absolutely loved staying here. The cottage is so unique and well designed and constructed - it's beautiful and there is plenty of space to stow one's belongings. The clawfoot bathtub was a special treat. The hot tub and general vibe of the property were real highlights too. We met a couple of neighbors on the road and they were incredibly gracious - even found a missing wallet for us! Bolinas is wonderful and we will be back!
