We spent the past year replacing most of the furniture, flooring, bedding, appliances and amenities inside and out, updating and preparing the home to be the ideal home to relax/work/study and spend time together. Come be our guests!

Nestled in the Inverness hills overlooking Tomales Bay, this quiet, secluded retreat pairs comfortable interior space with close proximity to the Point Reyes National Seashore and scenic West Marin. Guests have private access to the full property, including two downstairs bedrooms & full bath, second floor master suite & balcony, & spacious living area. A just-rebuilt 600 sq ft deck offers a spectacular vista of the bay & rolling West Marin hills.

The 1925 original family home has just undergone a partial remodel/refurnishing. This home has been in our family since 1973. The second story suite and expanded kitchen were added in 1983. The large deck was completely rebuilt in 2020. Situated on a large private lot shaded by mature redwood trees, it maintains many of its original features, including hardwood floors, exposed wooden beams, & kitchen bay windows. The property is located 1/3 mile from town, off a narrow country lane. Guests will be walking distance from Inverness shops, restaurants, & the library which serves as the town's community center. We are a short drive from neighboring Point Reyes Station, Olema, the Bear Valley Visitor Center & historic Earthquake Trail, & numerous ocean & bay beaches & hiking trails.

Inverness is truly a hidden gem thanks to a hard-fought battle against developers resulting in the protected status of a national seashore. Situated not much more than an hour's drive from the city, this beloved family home offers a perfect setting for a weekend respite or an extended vacation. Come enjoy barbecued oysters on the deck, pick blackberries along the nearby creek, collect shells and whale-watch on the beaches, & hike countless trails in one of our country’s most scenic & protected natural settings.

We look forward to having you as our guests!

Views in the woods
The house is well-equiped for cooking and family activities (board games, puzzles). We enjoyed walking to the deli/market, post office, and saltwater oyster depot. The beds were very comfy too!

Wonderful stay at Lloyd's Lookout
We had a very relaxing stay at Lloyd's Lookout. We were welcomed with a bottle of wine, some flowers and chocolates on the kitchen table and fresh eggs in the fridge, which definitely formed a good first impression. The house was clean and exactly as advertised. The host, Ewa, was very responsive to all our communication and obviously takes good care of the property. We would definitely stay there again and would not hesitate to recommend it to friends and other family.

Charming cottage in the trees
We loved our recent stay at this newly renovated cottage. It has all of the old Inverness charm but with modern upgrades. Expansive deck was perfect for doing art with my teen daughter on Spring break. Loads of privacy while very close to old town Inverness and all of the Pt Reyes beaches and trail heads.

50th birthday occasion
My son marked his 50th with his younger sister and me, his mom. Pt Reyes NS was a favorite and frequent destination during their childhood. Fortunately, I booked this lovely cottage for our stay, knowing we might encounter bad weather...and we did - one of the "atmospheric rivers." But despite rain, wind and power outage, we enjoyed our meals, stayed warm and shared family stories. Hope to return again in the future!

Comfortable vacation house, fabulous location
We loved our visit to Lloyds Lookout. The house is very comfortable, with beautiful views through the trees to Tomales Bay. The beds are great, well appointed kitchen and bathrooms—everything you would want in a vacation house. Ewa, our host, even left fresh eggs for us, and made sure there was propane for the grill. We can’t wait to return!

Point Reyes Treasure
We had a lovely time at this beautiful home. It was so inviting and comfortable with a very well stocked kitchen. We even meet the neighborhood chickens who provided the delicious eggs the property manager left in the refrigerator. Would come back again if in this area!

Perfect family retreat
Grandparents, parents, and two teen girls - we all had a wonderful time! The house is super clean and very comfortable, with plenty of room for the three generations. Well stocked kitchen supplies, lots of windows, a short walk into Inverness, and so quiet. It’s obvious that great care is being put into this lovely home.
