Visit from Utah
We met here with our son (active duty military) and his daughter, almost 8 and son, 5. We had a very nice time exploring the vicinity. Our grandson loved finding all the paths around the house and all the doors. Happily they were all locked!

This is a very cozy house with a beautiful view overlooking Tomales Bay. The kitchen is very well equipped. We enjoyed our stay and would definitely come again.

Nice and well appointed spot in Inverness
Overall, we enjoyed our stay in Inverness and felt comfortable, safe and well-supported at this stay. The house is well-appointed, having everything you really need for an extended weekend stay (we stayed for 5 nights). The house is also quite comfortable and offers great views of the bay. The only (minor) issues were the following: We checked in at night and none of the outside lights were on making it a bit precarious for my partner's parents (ages 76 and 80) to navigate the up and down steps from the driveway to the front door. Additionally, the entry way garden lights never worked, making it a bit difficult every time we departed / arrived after dusk. Additionally, we were never able to figure out how to work the dehumidifier in the downstairs room, which smelled a bit moldy from all the dampness. Instructions on how to work these would be helpful (apologies in advance if they were available and we simply did not see them).

A dream with a view
After 45 years of vacationing at Point Reyes National Seashore, lodging mostly in Inverness, we have landed in our current favorite spot for a second stay this year. The themes of this beautiful home are comfort, warmth, spaciousness, and welcoming with endless windows for the lovely bay view through lush grand trees. Almost like a Berkeley transplant in a small village, cared for by family over the years, it feels like a home. Equally suitable for 2 or a family or group, it offers the quiet of a retreat or great spaces for a lively gathering. Provisions lack for nothing, as another theme might be abundance, whether household provisions or entertainment. Music, games, books, smart TV, good lighting, decent beds, soft sheets, spacious main bath, all very clean. With an old fashioned lock box there are no digital glitches involved at check in. Good communication with host. What more could you want? A baby grand piano in the great room overlooking the bay would be a dream come true. Maybe some day. Until then, we'll be content with this hillside dream.

Very Pleasant
Comfortable. Tidy enough. Great view. Quite a walk to town so not as goods convenient as I need. Road noise was unexpected. Great parking. Overpriced due to road noise.

A perfect stay
The house is nothing fancy, but it is incredibly comfortable, clean, and well equipped. Best kitchen supplies we've ever seen in a VRBO rental. Unbelievable view of Tomales Bay from the deck. There were three of us, and a golden retriever, and it was a perfect 5 days. Will probably come back soon, as it's just 1 hr by car from where we live in SF.

Amazing view but needs updating
Nice view of the bay and the kitchen is well stocked. But ants were everywhere- kitchen cupboard, living room couch and downstairs bedroom! Internet connection was poor which made getting rained in less than enjoyable
