Photos and Description of the Inverness vacation house rental 5 bedrooms, 3.5 bathrooms, sleeps 5-12

Privacy and tranquility: This 12 year old, architect designed home sits high on the Inverness Ridge with breath-taking panoramas of Tomales Bay and Elephant Mountain. Walking distance to Point Reyes National Seashore trails. Migratory birds transit the area en mass, as well as the occasional gray fox. We have a resident bobcat, who may let you photograph him. We had a report of a mountain lion in the driveway, but I'm skeptical. The Raven's Roost is located just a little over an hour north of the Golden Gate Bridge and is immediately adjacent to the incredible Point Reyes National Seashore.

Review Submitted: August 11, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
We loved it. My children and grandchildren and myself take a vacation every year and what we loved about this home is waking up in the morning to a beautiful view and deer outside the window. One morning we heard what sounded like a coyote - don't know if there are coyotes in California. I do suggest that you arrive at the home before dark. For someone not used to driving in the mountains the steep and winding road is scary.

Review Submitted: July 7, 2006 Date of Stay: July 2006
We had a GREAT retreat in The Raven's Roost -
brought up 7 programmers and spent an awesome
two days making plans, drawing on whiteboards,
staring off at the horizon, taking walks along the
ridgeline. Everything about this house is fantastic.
You are really on top of the world.

Thanks largely to the wonderful inspiring space,
our group came up with new visions, and had a
great experience together. One of us even had new
twin babies, and stayed in the guest house with
babies and spouse! The kitchen was amazing, as
was everything else. We'll hopefully be returning
again one day soon. Finally, all interactions with
the owner were very low key and pleasant. Thanks,
Tom, for making your home available to us.

Review Submitted: June 6, 2006 Date of Stay: June 2006
Highly recommended for large groups. This is really a beautiful home. We had six adults, four teenagers and two small kids in our party, plus five more adults dropped in for cocktails and dinner. There was plenty of room for everyone. The layout is very well thought out, the architecture and garden are spectacular, the beds are comfortable, and the rooms are well-appointed and spacious. A disabled member of our party found it very easy to park her car and get around using her motorized scooter-chair.

There are lots of fun things to do a short drive down the hill. We went on a 2-hour trail ride at Five Brooks Stables, and some of our group enjoyed hiking and watching a parade in Point Reyes Staion. We spent a lot of time looking at the view and just enjoying how comfortable and attractive it was.

We made great use of the lovely kitchen, hosting 14 for dinner one night. It was such a treat to find good knives and nice pots and pans. On our last night, after the crowd left, my husband, my son and I sat in the hot tub looking over the valley as the sun went down and the fog rolled in. Our daughter spent a long time walking around saying goodbye to the place on our last morning, as she felt immediately connected to it--it was a lovely time for all of us.

We hope to return every summer. There is so much more to explore in the area.

I'm not sure if I've ever stayed in a more spectacular home. The views... I can't describe them. When you pull in the driveway you can hardly believe you have the correct address. The home itself is beyond lovely. Gorgeous views in every bedroom, a spectacular kitchen and living room, and the deck is unlike anything I've seen. If you have the chance, you must stay here.

There is no way a photograph could do this home justice! It is simply a wonderful home, with the most indescribable views imaginable. The hosts are delightful people - kind and thoughtful, and eager to make one's stay as perfect as possible. You may as well not look at any other properties, because this is the best listing! Gorgeous setting with deer all around, quiet, impeccably maintained, and every amenity imaginable. I have stayed at many properties through this service, and this is hands down the best. Best rate, best house, best view, best location, best hosts! GO!! You will miss the vacation of your life if you don't!
