We stayed here for one night and loved everything about this B & B!! It's only mins away from the town area and the visitor information center. The room and bathroom were spotless!! Our queen sized bed was extremely comfortable. No complaints about anything! Breakfast in the morning, was set just for us with a message from Amanda saying she'd back after her jog.

Pros: Location, service, comfort, cleanliness.
Cons: Not applicable because there were none!

I wanted a quiet, clean place to stay on the doorstep of Point Reyes.

It measured up in all respects.

The innkeeper was particularly friendly and forthcoming with useful advice.

My room had a shared bathroom, but this was not an issue for me.

The room was very clean and the bed very comfortable.

There are good restaurants 5 minutes walk away.

A perfect oasis.

This was not a cheap B&B, but it certainly looked and felt like one. The bed was uncomfortable with lumpy pillows. We could hear our neighbor snoring in the next room. The shower was so small you could not raise your arms without hitting the walls. The breakfast was awful. We are vegetarians and upon booking the room informed the B&B owner. The vegetarian option is the same breakfast less the single sausage link or bacon. One morning we were served one egg baked in a ramekin with a side of few slices of an old banana. The next day was two plain pancakes with a side of a few slices of an older banana.

My husband and I stayed for 4 nights in the Poppy room. We were concerned at first because the bed had a huge sag. We mentioned this to Amanda, the owner, and she immediately took a look and agreed something was not right. Turned out the antique brass bed frame had somehow come apart, so Ken (the other owner) and Amanda had it fixed in no time.

Breakfast was served at 8:30 every morning, so if you're not an early riser, or want more flexibility this may not be a perfect situation for you. We managed, even though my husband is not generally an early riser. I think we also got to bed earlier than at home, so it all worked. Dawn, the innkeeper, prepared great breakfasts and was just as cheerful and friendly as can be.......gave us some good restaurant tips,too.

I think the other reviews pretty much cover everything quite well. We were very happy with our accommodations.......the poppy room has it's own separate very spacious bathroom with an old fashioned claw footed bathtub (which has also been outfitted with a shower). I did find the water pressure to be a bit weak when washing my hair, otherwise it was fine.

We enjoyed the common area for reading after breakfast or before bed -- LOVE those chocolate covered almonds!

If we return to Pt. Reyes, we would be happy to stay at the Bear Valley Inn again.
