In the midst of COVID, we are taking extra precautions. We follow CDC guidelines and thoroughly ‘clean and disinfect high-touch surfaces (with each new reservation) in household common areas (e.g. tables, hard-backed chairs, doorknobs, light switches, remotes, handles, desks, toilets, sinks).’ We extend this to countertops, cabinet & drawer knobs, railings, window sills, floors, and all bathroom surfaces. We wash and dry all towels, sheets, pillows, pillowcases, and blankets on high heat for extended time. Disposable gloves are used for all cleaning.
The vacation home is heated and features a kitchen, 3.5 bathrooms, and a balcony. There's space to spread out with 4 bedrooms and a dining area. Guests can expect to find free WiFi and a Smart TV with a DVD player. The bathroom offers a jetted tub and hair dryers.

The house and gardens were very nice and clean. The just responsive. We would have liked to have known beforehand that absolutely no guests were allowed at any time of day or night. We have friends in the area and might well have had them to dinner and felt unable to do so. There were not enough window screens and one bedroom had no windows that could be opened at all. As other reviewers have written, that was not a comfortable hangout place that would hold all seven members so far family. Though there was a nice eat in kitchen with a large table and a large dining room table.

Pretty, but .......

The house is very large. The gardens are lovely. The furnishings are beautiful.But we did not find the house very livable. The layout is odd. There is lots of square footage, but it was very hard to use it effectively. There was not actually a comfortable common space for our family except the kitchen table area. The biggest living area is dominated by a pool table which breaks up any conversation. The small living room has a single couch.The kitchen was under-equipped for a house which claims to sleep 15. We never found a large pot. The gas stove only had one burner which would light reliably.The house is at the end of a private cul-de-sac, but I wouldn't call it "secluded". It's a neighborhood. The host did not send instructions in advance, so we didn't realize when we arrived that we weren't allowed to park in the circle. Other houses own those spots. All guest cars must park inside the house gates, up a steep single-lane gravel driveway.It does have an outstanding location for all the wonderful things there are to see and do in the Point Reyes area and the Marin peninsula.

4 days and 3 nights in Inverness Park

The house is very spacious, artfully decorated, and comfortable in every way. We had 9 adults and 2 4-year-olds and everyone had a warm bed. Plenty of space heaters, and some radiant heating, so no reason to be cold. I only wish that the hosts had alerted us a few days ahead of time that they weren't providing the check-in instructions until a few hours before the arrival time. They have good reasons for the last-minute notification, but it did cause us some anxiety, worried whether we would get the information before check-in time, or be left stranded. All in all, it's not a big complaint, but we didn't enjoy the last-minute instructions.

From the birds chirping and waking us up to the glorious view to the eccentric touches of the house, we thoroughly enjoyed our time in Tamales Bay. The kitchens are very well equipped, hot water never ran out and each little outdoor space a little piece of paradise. Excellent location!

Lovely home in Inverness

A group of four dads rented this house for a long weekend to relax and play some music. The setting is beautiful! Lovely gardens and trees surround the house and we really enjoyed spending time on the large deck with a view of the valley. Location was great too. The house itself is huge! There are three bedrooms and two bathrooms on the ground floor and the master suite with two beds is on the third floor. We spent most of our time on the second floor, which has the kitchen and lots of living space. We loved the pool table and piano. The kitchen had everything we needed, including oyster knives! The artistic touches were great as well (be sure to check out the cactus on the third floor). Overall, we would highly recommend staying in this house for a small or large group. A couple of issues to be aware of. The driveway is steep and it took us a couple of tries to get it right in terms of not spinning the wheels on the gravel, but it's easy enough to get up. One of us had a minivan and it's a tight turnaround to get out, but doable. Please be advised there is no outdoor hot tub, but there is a jetted tub in the master bath. Last thing: while this house is "secluded," as the listing says, the owners do live in a smaller house on the property (about 40 feet away) and there is a house immediately to the south of this house. Neither of the houses obstructed views or otherwise got in the way of our enjoyment, but it's more "rustic" than "secluded." Enjoy!

huge home for extended family getaway

Nice BIG house with quirky art pieces throughout the home and cool murals on the interior. Good place for a bigger group. Convenient location near Pt Reyes Station and Inverness Park but off the main roads. You can walk backroads to Inverness Park store (about one mile). Pretty location with lots of trees and gardens surrounding the house. Owners live next door and were available to answer questions. The dirt driveway required a little attention for entering and exiting, but it was easy to manage for confident drivers. We had warm days during our stay and opened the windows to cool down the interior, however most of the home does not have screens on the windows, so we had some mosquitoes. Screens on the windows, especially on top floor, and a fan or two would help in warmer weather. With extra guest fees for more than 4 people and all of the other fees (VRBO service fee, cleaning, insurance, taxes) it ended up being on the pricey side for our extended family group of 8 people. I realize it is standard for most rentals that the estimated price per night ends up being a lot less than final amount owed. We did have a nice stay overall.

Unique home, great location!

Really cool home with fun details and art! A little hard for my 2 yo to navigate so many stairs, we had an infant with us that needed the first floor so my family was on the 3rd. It got pretty hot up there as well. It was also hard to find together spaces with so many rooms and 3 floors but then not a lot of comfortable seating. Overall impressed with the cleanliness and uniqueness of the property and it was super close to point Reyes station shops and restaurant area!

An Enchanting Home!

We had a delightful time at this unique and spacious home. It is a one of a kind home filled with fun things like: antique furniture, murals, artifacts, books, a piano and even a pool table. The natural setting is lovely with plenty of birds, flowers and wildlife. Sherb and Maricel even supplied us with eggs from their chickens. The kitchen is well stocked with cookware and condiments. The location is great as it is near Pt Reyes shopping and restaurants but is on a hill in a very quiet location. We spent 4 happy days here. Sherb was very accessible and came over to help when we needed him. We will definitely plan to return.

nice house but loud construction noise right next door

We really needed a de-stress getaway with family and choose this place because it looked like it would be quiet. What the owner didnt disclose was that there is loud construction noise starting at 7:30 am very close by and pretty much you cant get away from the noise. We loved the house, and it was very well equipped with everything you could want. but they should let people know about the noise in the ad and they didn't. The parking is also very challenging and you have to deal with a gate. I dented my car trying to get in and out of a very tight spoace with rocks on the edges.

Unique house, perfect for our family gathering

We needed a large house to accommodate 3 families of 4 for a 2 night holiday gathering. There were cheaper, cookie-cutter options, but Sherb and Maricel's house has so much charm and character that it made the stay special for everyone. We loved the rambling layout with 2 kitchens and hidden bedroom through the laundry room. We cooked all our meals in their well-stocked kitchen. The cookware was high quality and in excellent condition, and there were plenty of plates, glasses, and flatware. Having a dishwasher was great! The teens enjoyed the piano and pool table, and the long dining room table allowed us to eat together. The house is close to Point Reyes Station and many great hiking trails. We were able to park 5 cars in front of the house, though it was tight and required some maneuvering. The doors to the house do not have locks, which seemed strange, but we felt safe in the quiet secluded area. We did not meet our hosts in person, but we were able to communicate online easily before and during our stay. This was the perfect house for a memorable family gathering.

Spacious, comfortable, well equipped, clean

Our group of five adults thoroughly enjoyed our week-long stay. The house is exactly as shown in the many pictures and there were no surprises. There are plenty of indoor and outdoor common areas to enjoy communal or separate activities. Everyone reported that the beds were very comfortable. The main kitchen is well stocked even for a much larger group and there is also a complete second kitchen that we did not use. The house is close to the town of Point Reyes Station and is a relatively short drive up a narrow road off Sir Francis Drake Boulevard. We found this access convenient for our many outings. In comparison, other rentals in the Point Reyes / Inverness area where we've previously stayed require much longer and twisty drives into the hills. Communications with our host were always prompt and pleasant.

4th of July Reunion

Wow! What a fantastic house! It was way bigger than I had thought from the pictures and reminded our group of a fantastic old inn from another era. We were surprised to learn that it was built the 80's from the owner, because it had the same charm of a 100 year old property. Very spacious and comfortable.
