A beautiful place but bring a good book

It is a great place for a good dose of beauty and quiet. There were issues with technology, i.e., stereo, TV, media players and landlines, but wi-fi seemed to be working ok. Otherwise, very comfortable with an extraordinary view of the bay and wildlife.

Can’t get any closer to the bay than this home. So enjoyed watching pelicans, otters, ospreys, and blue herons from the deck. The home was well equipped with everything we needed. Furniture and bed were very comfortable. And oh yes, the beautiful sunsets over Pt Reyes.

Perfect getaway

What a perfect location for a couple of kayakers who really needed a getaway! The house was warm and cozy, even through a storm the first day, it was very comfortable and the view can’t be beat. The kitchen is well equipped with everything you need and the living room is stocked with games, books, comfy chairs to watch the bay, and a hot tub over the water. We easily launched kayaks from our own beach and we’re instantly in paddler heaven. We will keep this as a favorite go to on Tomales bay.

Cozy Cottage on the Water

My husband and I enjoyed a weekend retreat at Bleu Bay Cottage. We enjoyed sipping our coffee while watching the sun rise. We had our wine on the deck while watching the sun set. We could hear the gentle waves at night and gazed at the stars while enjoying the hot tub. The small beach next to the cottage was perfect for launching our kayaks. The cottage is well appointed and clean. Overall, a great experience.

Everything we want in a getaway home

My husband and I booked this lovely cottage for a long weekend exploring the point Reyes area. It has been so absolutely wonderful that I contemplated leaving one star reviews so as to keep the secret for ourselves. The kitchen is large and lovely and perfect for cooking, The heaters work, the beds are comfortable, and the views are out of this world! What’s more – – the space is also perfectly designed with privacy in mind. Even though there are several other cottages in this neighborhood we could neither see nor hear our neighbors from either the deck or the house. Neither did we feel like anyone was peeing in at us. We can’t wait to come back! I already put it back I forgot we’re gonna go that way

Disappointing stay

We chose this rental because of the location and it had a spa. We arrived to find the spa water swampy and film of crud on the sidewalls. The owner called to tell us after we arrived the refridgerator wasn't working. He told us to dump in some chemicals to fix the spa ourselves. He was also having the repairman come about the fridge the next day. The chemicals didn't fix the spa and the repairman didn't fix the fridge. The owner should be on top of this so his guests can enjoy the visit they are paying for. Not the relaxing or private getaway we were hoping for.

Really enjoyed our stay. The cottage was clean, nice and had everything we needed for our stay. You are right on the water with Beautiful Sunsets. The Hot Tub was spectacular. There was a wonder store in Pt Reyes and Nicks Cove a mile away has the best food and drinks. There is no cell phone coverage, but who cares when your in paradise?

Perfect for a couple.

Our first stay in the Point Reyes area, and this was great. An easy drive to Tomales, Pt. Reyes, and Inverness for food and hikes. The house felt spacious for two, nicely updated appliances and furniture. Fast internet. There is a spiral staircase to be navigated to the bedroom - not an issue for us. Location over the water was perfect! Very responsive property manager and owner. The only thing it lacked was curtains to block the afternoon sun. We hope to return!

On the water

What a beautiful place to be. Right on the water. (Actually, the water comes under the back deck and the house when the tide comes in.) My favorite is when the bat rays come right up to you during low tide to feed, and listening to egrets and ospreys nesting a few houses down in the cove. Wow. Thank you for a peaceful time in a home that is so well cared for. Hoping to come back soon!
