DESCRIPTION
Located on the shore of pristine Tomales Bay, Joe’s Studio is the perfect economy getaway from the complexities of everyday life. Whether you want to cozy up indoors or stroll along the beach while keeping an eye out for seals and otters, you’ll have everything you need for a memorable escape.
From the deck, lounge in the sun, or grill up some oysters for dinner. Curl up with a book in one of our lounge chairs and enjoy the ebb and flow of the tides on Tomales Bay. Ready for an adventure? Rent a kayak nearby and venture along the bay. Settle in and let the wildlife and changing light on the water entertain you.
The studio is a cozy retreat - all on a quiet, historic private lane at the waterfront. Wake up to the gentle sound of water lapping the shore. Brew a cup in your well-equipped kitchen. The newly remodeled bathroom has a contemporary shower. There is a completely remodeled kitchen and full bathroom-see photos.
Watch the natural inhabitants of the cove: snowy white egrets, great blue herons, countless flocks of shorebirds, seals, otters, sea lions, fish, bat rays and more. Want a memorable evening? Watch the fog roll in and out while sipping a glass of wine with the sun setting over the Point Reyes Peninsula.
Want to explore? Hop in the car and take a 4-minute drive to Hog Island Oyster Company for a farm tour and lessons in oyster shucking! Drive a little further and explore Point Reyes Station & dozens of hiking trails, beaches, and more within the National Seashore.
Return to your own private retreat to enjoy breathtaking sunsets. If you love to cook, the studio has a fully equipped rustic kitchen. Or, enjoy a lovely evening out at one of the many acclaimed restaurants in the area.

Summary: This was the perfect place to stay for our daughter’s wedding weekend at the nearby Strauss family home. Nestled right up against the picturesque Tomales Bay, it had everything we needed to enjoy a magical weekend.

Summary: Getting the key was difficult. Directions said look for grey gate but there isn’t one, only a blue gate and fence. The lock is a little rough, maybe time to replace. Had to jiggle the key to lock/unlock. Inside was good, had a smell like maybe it’s time to replace the carpets. Everything else was great. Love the little oatio outside the kit he.

Summary: This is a lovely studio on Tomales Bay. I happened to pick the wrong weekend to go as there was a king tide and major rain storm. Took away the dock and did some other damage. BUT, the place is lovely and exactly as in the listing and the owners and manager were very gracious and refunded the trip since was no power or water most of the time. So highly recommended and this was like a every 30 year event not the usual so do not be dissuaded by my weekend :) Otherwise Tamales bay is beautiful and Nicks Cove and the Marshall Store are just a few miles away. Cannot recommend more highly.

Summary: Nice little place to get away if you dont mind the home owner being there in the main house.

CINDI H. Jul 18, 2024 04:37:29 AM
Summary: From the outside the house is a little rough & in need of some TLC. This is a house split into 2 houses. I assumed we would have a view but Joe’s Studio is on the back of the house & you must go outside to the deck to see the bay. We were never sure if there was someone in the front side of the house but there was a car there. I prefer privacy when vacationing so this was a little unnerving to me. There is no oven/ stove in the kitchen. The studio has been remodeled & was clean, except for the mattress cover on the hide a bed. The studio beds were very comfortable & the location is great as there is so much to do in the area.

Summary: Joes studio was fantastic. The small studio had everything you need, including a huge selection of dvds to explore after a day spent outside. We rented kayaks and only used them once - the kayaking is superb but the house’s location was so perfect we just wanted to stay there all day. There were so many birds to watch. Including an osprey nest we could watch all day while wading in the bay. This place is so peaceful and quiet, and the deck and patio were perfect every hour of the day. The price is also much more affordable than other places in the area, but the studio had every basic need covered.
Elizabeth O. Jul 3, 2024 11:00:42 PM
Summary: Return trip to Joe’s. Loved it last summer, so we came again. We love the peaceful vibe. Watching the tide move in and out. The fog creep and the sunsets. Perfect!
