easy and convenient: short walk to beach, equally short to 'town' small size didn't bother us – it felt bigger with smart solutions and stylish interiors; we liked the maritime styling. enjoyed watching the seals swimming in the lagoon. thanks!

Accommodations were excellent. The location is convenient to the center of town and the restaurants. We really enjoyed our stay and would recommend it to a friend.

Great stay, very peaceful!, The cabin needed some better towels, coffee and some dishes. thenk you

lovely property, fun to be there.

An amazing special place where you can totally relax and forget your cares. Everything you need and very clean. Interesting plumbing but wonderful shower. Watching the tide come in and out and the birds and seals enjoyable. Walking distance to the beach and town. A special bothie.

Great place and time!

The bothy was cozy, charming, and well stocked with essentials. The binoculars were a nice bonus to view the wildlife and ever changing tide and fog. We didn’t want to leave!

This was such a wonderful, charming, cozy little cottage over the lagoon that was perfect for me and my adult daughter. Bolinas is my happy place and this little cottage is a perfect representation of all that's good about Bolinas; quiet, beautiful, humble, authentic and just plain cozy.

If you want to stay on the water, in a modest, shabby chic cabin, with a view of the west side of Mt Tam, the lagoon, and the ocean, steps from the beach and around the corner from the ever amusing town of 'Bo' then this is your place. Tiny and wonderful in every way!

This is the second time my husband and I have stayed in this unique place. It was very quiet here this April. We did hear an occasional bird but enjoyed watching the majestic egrets and seagulls. At night we would watch the full moon rise over the coastal range casting beautiful reflections on the water. We could see the lights of Stinson Beach and San Francisco from the front room. Although we brought coffee and there was a French press available, my husband enjoyed walking a couple blocks to the local coffee shop for his latte’ and scone or muffin.

Great place and had a magical few days with my wife. Great place to reconnect with your significant other.

Super cool little beach house right on the lagoon with large windows. Very relaxing just watching the birds, seals and tide going in and out. The house has everything needed. At low tide it is a beautiful walk around the point to Bolinas Beach and it's a quick walk to the quaint, rustic town for some good quality food.

I'm a single mom that takes 2 solo vacations per year. To hike, relax and spend time recharging. This place delivered big time. Location is spot on. Walkable to everything. And cute like you wouldn't believe. All the comforts of home, but on the water. You'll hear pounding surf and seagulls while sipping your wine on the porch. I wish I could give it 10 stars! I'm looking forward to returning.

We had a great time in the cozy bothy, being on the water is great for seeing loads of birds (and seals) and the location is perfect for walking around Bolinas or taking a quick drive out to a trailhead. We're definitely coming back.

My wife and I had a relaxing weekend at the Bothie on the Lagoon. The view and deck can't be beat. We were immersed in nature, soaking in the extremes of high and low tides as we ate a leisurely brunch on the deck in the morning sun and then observed the colors unfold on the mountain with cocktails at twilight. At high tide the lagoon was thriving with seals and birds and at low tide, a private sandy beach revealed itself below the deck which allowed us to climb down the ladder and walk to Kent Island. The house is modest and feels like a boathouse, but it is comfortable, clean, and well stocked. Its a short walk to Smileys and Coast Cafe for food, drinks, music. It's also a short walk to Bolinas Beach for some decent body boarding and surfing. The outdoor shower with hot water is a great way to clean up after some beach time. Finally, Kirsten "Kiki" was very accommodating and quick to respond, making our stay care free.

My wife and I enjoyed a lovely weekend in Bolinas at this property. We loved watching the sunrise each morning, and found the town relaxing and welcoming. Parking was easy to find except during the concerts in town on Saturdays. We did find the bed to be a little uncomfortable, however, the home was overall outstanding. Thanks again!

This place is dreamy! Already planning a way to get back here! Absolutely loved our stay!!

We went to this beautiful property, knowing that it was going to storm much of our getaway. It was a wonderful place to be listening to the wind and rain in the cozy cottage. We loved the vibe of the place and had a great time. Everything is within walking distance, and even with the storm, we manage to average 10 to 15 miles a day of walking and exploring. The owners replied immediately prior to the trip when I had questions. They were flexible, understanding, and went above and beyond to help me when I forgot something. I give this property the highest rating and hope to go back!

The Bothie offered precisely what we (my partner and I) were seeking: a quiet and cozy place where we felt encouraged to be still. This feeling was made possible by: the unobstructed view of the lagoon, town being a short walk away, and the cottage being clean and well-maintained. We'd visit again ^ _ ^

Everything about the bothie was even better than I expected. It's tiny but cozy, with so many thoughtful touches and beautiful pieces of furniture and art to look at inside. But most of the time is spent staring out at the incredible views over the water. It was a fun and unique place to stay, and felt like a break from modern life (though there was steady wifi if you need it). The bed was so comfy! Perfect place for a weekend away from it all - we can't wait to go back.

Wonderful place to spend a few cozy days and watch the tide come in and come out. If you're 6'3" or taller you may hit your head a couple times, other than that this place is perfection.

The Bothie offers a best-of-both-worlds experience, combining the coziness of a cottage with the exoticness of a boat. Firmly perched on pilons above the flowing tides of Bolinas Lagoon, its panoramic window offers endless views of the landscape and water, with San Francisco's city lights twinkling in the distance at night... It's truly magical being there. A hidden gem within the hidden gem of Bolinas; only an hour from SF but worlds away. My wife and I come to Bolinas every year to hike Alemere Falls. The Bothie offered a comfortable reprieve after a big a day outdoors, as well as a big day indoors, enjoying the views of nature and getting lost in a book. Praise to the host for sharing this amazing place with the rest of us.

This place is wonderful! So much charm. The perfect outlook. The best way to relax!

Beautiful town and location. Unique place, really amazing views, perfect for a quiet getaway. Very clean. The place is small and kitchen is narrow and hard to cook and clean in, but if you are aware of that and plan accordingly it really is a sweet and perfect little hideaway for couples or alone time.

This was our second stay and it reinforced all the good feelings from the first time. Peaceful, private, beautiful. It's a magical place, anytime of year.

We had some crazy last minute requests and the host was most accommodating. The place is clean, beautifully decorated and cozy for those cold evening. Walking distance to social spaces or nature. If you just want to be an introvert, then you can hang out on the couch and stare at the never ending changing landscape from the 180 views. We would stay there again ❤️

Beautiful property. Clean. A perfect place to relax to enjoy the sun, sand, and surf.

The Bothy is a beautiful, cozy, shipshape little house, located in a magical setting, at the junction of sea, sky, mountains, and beach. The ebb and flow of the tide brings all sorts of sea life to flow past your deck, and you could spend the whole day just watching it all. Or hike Mt Tam or Point Reyes. The perfect place for a getaway!

Spectacular location, cozy cabin. However, the kitchen was lacking basic items. The two small frying pans where past there prime, there was only one pot and it had no cover, there was no salad spinner or a vegetable steamer, and the lone cutting board was bent and broken. These are very basic kitchen items, which one would expect no matter how rustic the cabin is, let alone at this rental’s cost. The property manager responded promptly when I called him with my concern and dropped off a pot. He then messaged me that he will buy "some new pots" the next day, followed with a message that he has "a pretty good sense of what is there" and will call us once he returned from his shopping expedition. We never heard back from him.It did not spoil our stay but we felt let down.

If I could give this place a million stars, I would!! Absolutely amazing in every way from the efficient use of space, intentional furnishing and details and of course the location! My only regret is not staying longer. Incredible in every possible way!!
