Olema Cottages

Very nice clean and comfortable. I appreciated the supply of coffee and condiments for it. I didn’t get much of an opportunity to explore the grounds and the art so I plan to go back.

I really love the Point Reyes area and have saw this lovely place before. Very happy that I finally got to stay there during the Thanksgiving week this year. We stayed in the Farmer's Parlor.

Things I loved about the stay are:
- The place itself is very clean, has enough amenities like utensils, wood burning fire place, a sun room
- The bed is very comfortable. Even fancy hotels sometimes do not have a good bed. I really appreciate this
- The garden/ yard of the entire place is very lovely, well maintained
- The view is great, you see horses, grass field and mountains
- The location is pretty good, very close to hiking spots, Point Reyes Station, and there are some restaurants in Olema itself (like Due West)

Things I did not like were:
- Farmer's Parlor faces north. It is very cold in the morning even when outside is already warm. If I knew this, I would not have rented this place
- It is part of the main house, like Nest, which does not seem to be as private as the Cottages (Kelly said it is the most private one, I am not sure, I also have not stayed in any other cottages on the property)
- It is basically a studio. The sun room is not well insulated, so very cold. Also it just has a table and 2 chairs, you cannot really sit comfortably there either. We did not use it much. We mostly were sitting in the king-sized bed when we are inside

Having said all of the above, I would definitely stay with them again next time, but probably a cottage with a bedroom and living area.

I wanted my sister and daughter who were visiting to both experience point Reyes. We chose to stay here at Olema Cottages and I would definitely stay here again. The bed was very comfortable if a bit on the high side, the kitchen was extremely convenient and we loved all the videos that were available to watch.

Great little retreat. We stayed in the farmhouse parlor. It was nice and comfy. It was cold enough at night to use the word burning stove. Thanks was really small, but they have a little movie outhouse where you can get a DVD to watch. Would go back.

We stayed in the Cypress Cottage. The lawn area was filled with wonderful sculptures and antiques. Every inch of the property was a delight to the eyes. The cottage itself had a display of wonderful figure paintings by Warren Faus, a Bay Area art teacher and painter (1919-2011). All of this and it was also a perfectly maintained and a lovely place to spend some relaxing days. Kelly anticipated every need and comfort her quests could ask for. I have also stayed at two of Kelly's other cottages in Olema. Each one is completely unique. Be sure to visit!
