Cute & Cozy

The Little Ruby was great for our little anniversary getaway. Easy to find and very serene. The fire pit was a sweet bonus, and plenty of wood. Not having to worry about bringing half and half, butter and eggs was another bonus!! Ewa was very communicative and helpful. My only issue - and this is purely a subjective one - but it could help someone who suffers from back issues. The mattress / topper was super soft (some folks may love it!); I’ve a history with low back issues, so my back was a little achy. Not a complaint, because it’s absolutely still a 5-star review; it’s purely informative. Still loved our stay!

Lux in its simplicity. The Ruby does not disappoint. Better instructions for the heater would have been appreciated. You can tell that the Ruby is the host's, Ewa's pride and joy

Clean, cozy, and convenient for our needs. Although the driveway took some time to master, it was lovely to be in a peaceful location with great access to the park. Perfect accommodations for us, for a nice weekend away.

Spring Point Reyes Getaway

The Ruby property worked well for my husband and me. The trailer was cozy and warm when it was cold and cooled down when we had a warmer day. Everything we needed was provided. The only drawback was that the amount of water provided for a hot shower was only sufficient for a quick shower, not one with a hair wash and rinse. The owner was easy to reach by email, answered questions quickly and provided us with extra items like a bottle of wine and eggs.

We'll be back!

We really enjoyed the quiet and cleanliness of the property and the engaging personality of the host. An issue regarding the lack of heat in the unit was resolved the next day, after a frigid night, but could have been resolved sooner had we had a way to contact the host by phone. Unfortunately, we did not have phone signal in the unit (we did have WIFI for emails) but we could make calls from town, just down the hill from where the unit was located. Still, once we had everything figured out, we had a wonderful stay and would absolutely stay again in the future.

Great place even with slight mixup

We didn’t actually end up staying in the ruby but on another site on the same property. It was not the hosts fault just an issue between systems. Once she found out about it she went out of her way to make sure we were all set and comfortable including brining eggs and cream the next morning. Would stay here again.
