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.

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.

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!

Explore Pt Reyes
The cozy and quiet accommodations of the Ruby were perfect for our family of four as we explored Pt Reyes.
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.

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.
