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.

Relaxing stay with lots of room

We spent a weekend here with our teenage son, who slept in the living room bed and slept like a baby. Everything was super comfortable and relaxing.

Local Getaway

I wanted a spot close to some of my favorite hikes and Ruby was perfect. Only an hour or so away from home but it felt like a was truly on vacation. I'd love to stay there again.

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.

Beautiful Retreat

We loved this property and wished we could have stayed longer! The amenities were perfect for us. We loved the fire pit and the deck with the great views. The host was so helpful, even helped us back into the parking spot with our big vehicle! We definitely hope to come back one day!

Trailer in the woods

Fun location. The Ruby was in good shape and had nice amenities- fire pit, DVD, games. There is no cell service, which was fine. WIFI needs to be improved or disconnected completely. More shower pressure!! Very cute setting with nice deck and outdoor string lights. Overall we really enjoyed it.

Great isolated yet localized place!

We own a trailer, so this was a very pleasant and cozy experience for us. We had a campfire outside and inside we had everything we needed. And, we were just nine minutes from town. We will definitely stay here again when in Point Reyes.

Loved it!

This little camper is adorably perfect for a couple. The owner provided eggs and half/half in the fridge and coffee and sugar which not one of our other VRBOs did our whole honeymoon trip. It’s clear a lot of care goes into this property. Would stay again!

😍

This cute vintage-y trailer is perched up a quiet little drive with a lovely private outdoor space. It was well-lit and very welcoming as we arrived after dark. The host was communicative, we had no need to reach out to her, but I’m sure if we did she would have responded. As it’s a trailer water pressure was not strong, but that is to be expected. Overall, it was clean and cozy. We enjoyed our stay and will return.

Terrific Alternative Lodging!

The Ruby turned out to be a great place to have a special birthday celebration for my husband. We live in the Bay Area and normally drive out to Pt. Reyes just for the day. I thought it would be nice to stay overnight and have time for a more leisurely visit. However the choices of traditional B&B places in the Inverness area are limited, so I was happy to discover the Ruby. As the other reviews attest, it is very comfortable, clean, well equipped, and situated in a lovely location. The heating works well, and bathroom facilities were fine (the hot/cold adjustment in the shower is just a little sensitive). The main sitting area is surprisingly spacious. Our host Ewa was friendly and very responsive. Highly recommended!

Very cute

Very cute, even more so than shown on pictures. Loved the location, the quietness, and cozy feeling of the place. Very comfy beds. It was just me and my teen daughter and then rented the one next door for my friend and her three smaller children. Lovely all around. The lady that owns the place lives across the way so stops by to introduce herself. Friendly with cute pups that might come visit you, as well.
