Cute & Cozy

The Little Ruby was great for our little anniversary getaway. Easy to find and very serene. The fire pit was a sweet bonus, and plenty of wood. Not having to worry about bringing half and half, butter and eggs was another bonus!! Ewa was very communicative and helpful. My only issue - and this is purely a subjective one - but it could help someone who suffers from back issues. The mattress / topper was super soft (some folks may love it!); I’ve a history with low back issues, so my back was a little achy. Not a complaint, because it’s absolutely still a 5-star review; it’s purely informative. Still loved our stay!

Awesome location, cute property and helpful host!

We only stayed one night - this time! - and it was great. Ewa was very friendly and helpful and it was fun to stay in an RV. My friend and I found it quite comfortable and there's so much to do and see in that area. Highly recommend.

Family trip to Point Reyes

This was a fantastic booking for our family of four for a weekend Point Reyes hiking trip. The location was great, and the trailer as well as the patio/backyard were excellent for chilling out in the evening. The host was also kind enough to keep some eggs/butter/half-and-half in the fridge for us for breakfast. Would definitely book again.

Fantastic spot in Point Reyes

This place was perfect. Great spot separated from the main home, very private. Well stocked with essentials and super cozy inside. There was a bonfire set up that we used and beautiful surroundings. We were a 15 min drive to the beach and perfectly located to explore Point Reyes. And my kids loved their first sleepover in a camper!

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!

Ewa is a great and thorough host. The eggs, butter and milk in the refrigerator and chocolates on thee table were a nice touch. We arrived early in a rain storm and she was able to check us in about an hour before the normal check-in time.

Cozy and Comfortable

We loved the Ruby! She was immaculate and had everything we needed for our stay. It was a bit stormy on the day we arrived, but there were plenty of blankets and comfy spots to curl up with a book or to have a chat over tea. Every time we reached out to our host for advice, she was super fast in replying and very helpful with suggestions for the area. It's a very unique place to stay with access to Point Reyes for hiking and exploring. I already told several people how much I loved staying here. Thanks, Ruby!

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!

Spring Point Reyes Getaway

The Ruby property worked well for my husband and me. The trailer was cozy and warm when it was cold and cooled down when we had a warmer day. Everything we needed was provided. The only drawback was that the amount of water provided for a hot shower was only sufficient for a quick shower, not one with a hair wash and rinse. The owner was easy to reach by email, answered questions quickly and provided us with extra items like a bottle of wine and eggs.

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.
