Really lovely property. Enjoyed the proximity to the different oyster restaurants, and the deck to sit on over the water. This is a duplex, but we really couldn’t hear the people that were staying in the other unit. Only caveats are that you need the mobility to be able to climb a ladder-like stair to get to the bedroom loft, and also the loft has a very low ceiling over the bed, might be too much for a tall person.

Such a beautiful spot over the water. Peaceful and easy to park. Space was great. Small kitchen but able to do all the cooking we wanted with the 2 burner stove and Ninja air fryer/countertip oven. Also, the property had Weber BBQ with briquets that allowed for fresh BBQ oyster feast. Hot tub was great too. Highly recommend.

Tranquil getaway, but with a hot tub under the stars

Nice, small, private, quiet, with view of nature and easy access to outdoor activities. Very small kitchen but managed to cook a couple romantic meals!

Haven on the bay

This place feels like home! Well thought out amenities and whimsical, charming decor. It had everything I needed, a cozy hideaway on the water. With the private deck and hot tub you can stay in with a good book or explore Tamales Bay and the nearby headlands. Close to good restaurants where oysters and seafood abound.. It was just what I needed to refuel and refresh.

Relaxing getaway for mom and daughter

My mom and I stayed here for a few nights. We enjoyed sitting on the deck during the day and relaxing in the hot tub in the afternoons. We have no complaints! The house is decorated really nice and it was very clean upon arrival. We will be staying here again for a girls trip in the future!

Perfect weekend getaway with incredible views!

The property is incredibly charming and well maintained and very clean. The place is perfectly set up for a romantic weekend for two. We sat on the comfortable lounges, enjoyed the hot tub at night and cooked breakfast in the kitchenette. The bed is very comfortable and the upstairs loft is cozy. The Marshall market restaurant is right down the road and a favorite of ours. We hope to come again and highly recommend

Romantic escape

For those who always wanted to live on the water, this place is perfect. The apartment is charming, well taken care of. It’s a romantic spot, that offers all the comfort of a home. We received the right indications and the check in and check out processes have been smooth. Definitely recommended.

Location location location

Lovely cozy home with a very private deck (and hot tub) right over the water. What’s not to love? Steps to the loft where the bed is located could be treacherous if you need to get up often at night. Minimal indoor cooking capacity but… close to 2 good restaurants. Plenty to do, or just chill on the deck.

Peaceful Tomales Bay getaway

The unit was lovely, clean, cozy and peaceful. Amazing deck and hot tub, with views / sunsets across the bay. And, I think we were very fortunate since the houses/units on both sides of us were unoccupied, which made the space and setting that much more relaxing and felt like all our own for a weekend. Easy parking right in front. One very minor downside for us is that you cannot walk anywhere from here - it's a very narrow stretch of the road with little/no walking space - so we had to drive anytime we went out.

Serene, bayside piece of heaven.

I have stayed here before and it's just great. The host is a great communicator, the house is always as described and has amenities beyond a lot of hosts. Hot tub was clean and working, and the location is so, so, so quiet. If you plan on cooking a lot, I'd recommend you bring your seasonings, etc as the pantry is limited, but offered for free, so, hey, what are you gonna do? WiFi isn't the fastest, so using this as a 'Work From Remote,' spot may not be the best for videoconferencing. It's fine for email and watching a streaming service movie though. 5 stars and hope to be able to stay again in the future!

Just the type of place we like. The deck had great views and most importantly the privacy fence blocked the prevailing north breezes. Made morning and evening pleasant enough as we had both morning coffee, breakfast, wine time and dinner outside even though fog prevailed on 2 days. Had an amazing sunset one evening. Inside was well decorated with nautical theme. Kitchen nicely stocked. Bathroom was very spacious. Didn't use the hot tub though owner had turned it on for us. And had no time for any TV. The loft was cozy. Had to watch our heads as ceiling was low at headboard end. Also, the staircase up to the loft was steep. Almost a ladder angle. Careful coming down. The quarters were warm enough without using the fireplace. Very good communications with the owner. Thanks! Would love to return!

The Mermaid House - Crew Quarters

My partner and I chose this spot because it looked like a wonderful getaway from the stressors of life. When we arrived check-in was just as described. Fred made everything easy and all was explained in the folder of information. The loft bed was lovely and cozy…we ended up resting in the space one whole day - including cooking breakfast there. Definitely need to shoot for any food you want to cook or snacks in town since the location is about 9 miles outside of town. Also, when we were in the hot tub, the temp kept decreasing (hoping this is a quick fix since we definitely want to return and the stars at night are beautiful!). We were there on our own most of the time, but guests arrived for the Admiral’s Quarters the night before we left - no noise issues that we experienced, but that could vary I imagine? Clean-up and check out were a breeze as well. We had a wonderful time and hope to return here for another getaway soon!

Hi Jennifer, Thanks for your nice comments, I’m glad you enjoyed your get away. Regarding the hot tub losing heat while in use is normal especially when the temperature difference is about 40 degrees. The hot tub can only catch up when the cover is put back on. The tub is relatively new and I believe functioning as it should. Regards, Fred
