to & from

It’s drivable but if you’re too far to drive or don’t want to drive, fly in to SFO and rent a car. It’s about an hour and a half from there by car.

Where to Stay

We stayed at a beautiful VRBO. It was dog friendly and stocked with everything, including games and things for kids to keep busy with. The house itself it fantastic. Windows all over the place so that you never miss out on the stunning scenery that surrounds (you feel like you are in the middle of the mountains!), radiant heating, outdoor shower, hot tub, incredibly well-stocked kitchen, super comfy bed and gracious, friendly hosts. It is completely relaxing, cozy, beautiful and all of the amenities make you feel really spoiled. It is located in Inverness, which is tranquil and so beautiful that you feel immediately captivated. We couldn’t bare to leave once we arrived, so we made dinner “at home” the first night night.

There’s also Nick’s Cove and Olema House Point Reyes</a, which btw was rated #1 USA in the Conde Nast Reader’s Award!!!
