This is a charming cottage with wonderfully eclectic furnishings (and a very impressive library). Although it’s a studio, the floor plan is really well done . . . the space is quite large with a lot of natural light, and we loved the roomy and airy feel of the place. Opening the curtains on a wall of windows (and French doors) to a view of the private patio/garden in the morning was a wonderful way to start each day. The neighborhood was peaceful, the bed was comfy, the shower was hot, the kitchen was well-equipped, and the two terry robes were a thoughtful touch. There is a hot tub by the patio, and on a cool evening it was a great way to end a day.
John and Catherine are superb hosts, treating us to a welcoming gift of fruit and local cheese and offering kind advice about the area when we asked. The location was a perfect “home base” for our explorations: birding the Point Reyes seashore, hiking the trails, visiting the redwoods, and enjoying the wine country. We stayed at the cottage for ten days and hated to leave.
