Message from Point Reyes Vacation Rentals: Cleaning: Your safety is our priority. We have always been obsessed with the cleanliness of our homes, and in light of the recent events, we have increased our already stringent cleaning procedures and policies. Our cleaning and maintenance staff have been, and will continue to be updated and trained to ensure that the homes we manage are as safe, if not safer than, anywhere one could hope to be. We don’t normally use harsh cleaning products, but we are adding bleach and other disinfecting products into the mix out of an abundance of caution. We use Alsco linen service, which already complies with stringent standards for hospitals, so you can rest assured that the linens are fresh and disinfected. We are budgeting additional hours of cleaning after each guest, at our expense, to ensure that the homes are thoroughly cleaned, and we are going overboard, I assure you - better safe than sorry! We strongly urge guests to procure travel insurance which includes trip interruption coverage. We hope that you will feel safe and comfortable, and enjoy getting out here to nature and find a temporary respite from the world. If you have specific questions, please feel free to reach out.

We're also happy to answer any questions, whether about the property, or while planning your time in the area. Think of us as your host and concierge. This is not a party house. We're in a quiet neighborhood and noise travels at night in our little happy valley, so this is not the appropriate place for gatherings that will go loud or late. If that's what you're looking for, I have other homes that would be more appropriate, so contact me. Have fun, be respectful, alert us right away if something is broken or amiss. This is not the place for parties, if that's what you're looking for, contact me, I have other homes that might work for you. We recommend that you bring slippers or sandals and leave your shoes at the door. Note: We reserve the right to enforce charges via the Airbnb Resolutions Center for damages or unreasonable use of listing utilities. Abuse of house amenities may result in post-reservation charges equal to the value of costs incurred. By booking our listing, you agree to these terms and all other house rules. Non-guest visitors are limited to 2 without prior approval. Don't try to throw your wedding or party here - if that's what you're looking for, contact me, I have other properties that could work for you. No animals - no exceptions, no matter how well behaved you may think they are, so please don't ask. If you simply must bring your pet, we can refer you to a local lady who dog-sits at her home, or to one of our other properties which welcomes dogs. No smoking inside - does that even need to be said anymore? Violation of either of these rules will incur a minimum $500 cleaning fee. Other than that, we're easy and will assume that you'll be respectful and responsible. Thanks!
