Bolinas House | The Bothy on the Bolinas Lagoon

1 Bedroom House in Bolinas

The house sits on the Bolinas Lagoon with stunning views of the water and Mt. Tamalpais. It started its life as a summer retreat on the SF Bay around the turn of the century. These little houseboats were called Arks and they were moored near Belvedere and Tiburon. At some point in the mid-20th century, they were towed out to Bolinas and a number of them now sit on piers along Wharf Rd.
The Bothy is a 30-second walk to the beach and a 2-minute stroll to our downtown shops and restaurants where you can grab a delicious pizza at 11 Wharf or an Acai Bowl at Bovida.
The cottage features 1 bedroom and a comfortable living area with built-in seating and expansive views of the lagoon. There is a nice deck overlooking the lagoon with an outdoor shower. The galley kitchen has a small electric range with oven and has a lovely view of the breakers. There is no dishwasher.
There is parking on the street but there is no assigned spot. On the weekends in the summer, it can get crowded and it might take a few minutes to find a space and require a short walk (30 seconds..). Otherwise it’s typically easy to park in front of the house.
Laundry facilities are available in town at the local laundromat if needed.

Summary: We so enjoyed our stay at the Bothy in Bolinas. The property is described well in the VRBO listing. It reminded us of a houseboat without the rocking around. Because it is like a houseboat, it is small, and the kitchen and bathroom are tight, but if you are OK with that, it is delightful. You are right ON the lagoon, and able to watch the wildlife up close. There is a great view of the ocean and sky. The place was filled with light and so relaxing. Super comfortable bed too. It is a very short walk to the beach and to the downtown area, so ideally located. We had the pleasure of meeting the owner, who was very responsive and concerned about making our stay as good as it can be. We highly recommend the Bothy.

Summary: Rustic but charming cottage, cannot beat the location, very comfortable. Other than a very noisy group of 6 couples staying at the cottage next door on our last night, we thoroughly enjoyed the cottage. Surprisingly good food in Bolinas too!

Deby R. Aug 10, 2024 01:04:14 PM

Summary: Such a cozy little place, perfect for two people. Loved the location, the way it was decorated and the ease of the rental process. The bed was comfortable, there were plenty of towels, there were lots of books and magazines and basic necessities were supplied. We spent three nights and hope to return in the winter for a different experience.

Summary: Second time staying. Will return.

Michael S. Jul 21, 2024 03:17:36 AM

Summary: Just what the Dr ordered. Relax, unwind and conect with nature. Loved watching the seals, birds and tide come in and out. Thank you for sharing your little piece of heaven.

Summary: The place is quaint with priceless views. The space is small, perfect for a couple. There are lots of windows to be able to take in the view as well as to keep track of the tides and countless bird activities. You are also less than 50 steps away from the beach. One major issue with this place is parking. There is NO designated parking for this location and the parking gets full VERY fast during daytime. So if you drive away during daylight, even if it is for short period of time, keep in mind that you will struggle to find parking. Also sheriffs are out and many cars received parking tickets. Beware. Because this place is designed like a tiny home, there are certain challenges to plan ahead. I would not plan to rely on cooking for food as the kitchen is tiny, but at the same time, restaurants close very early. Plan ahead. Also due to the piping being very bare, there are a lot of water drips after water use. If you are sensitive to this type of sound, I highly recommend bringing ear plugs or white noise machine. One amenity that was missing is body soap / hand soap (they provide only cheap shampoo and conditioner). Lastly, it can get a bit cold even in June, so bring thick clothing, but they provide two space heaters. I would absolutely stay here again, though parking really was a bit of a mess. Absolutely gorgeous!

Summary: What a magnificent surprise our stay at The Bothy was for us. Unique to have the ocean meet the bay at the close of each day and the timing of the full moon’s light glimmer on the water which rose at high tide an easy 6 feet made our time most memorable. Thank you

Summary: Our stay in the bothy was just what was needed after loosing our beloved dog. There's comfort in watching the tide come in and out along with the wildlife that accompanies it. The cabin is clean, comfortable and has everything you need. So unique also! The history of the ‘arks’ that line this part of the lagoon is interesting and it's easy to imagine being out on the water when the tide surrounds you. Everything is easily walkable - the ocean just down the road with its long stretch of beach and the tiny town a couple blocks away with several restaurants and 2 markets. If it's misty you can curl up on the window seats and not miss a thing. If it’s clear you get a beautiful sunrise or can watch the full moon reflected in the lagoon as it rises. Magical! Jeff, the property manager is responsive and even brought us salt when we needed it (thanks Jeff!). We will return!

Summary: A truly magical spot - situated literally in (above) the flow of the tides between the lagoon and the open sea. Clean, comfortable accommodations, stunning location, birds and seals galore, only two skips to town. An amazingly remote feel for a place just an hour from SF. Thank you - a great place to turn 60. We'll be back.

Erika L. Apr 12, 2024 02:10:01 PM

Summary: 2nd time here, this time my husbands bday. We loved it even more this time than last ( which was a lot ) Beautiful to watch the tides, the seals playing, the light, wonderful walks on the beach right down the street. The beautiful spacious deck had us spending our last full day just lounging while right in the middle of the wildlife action. Such a sweet place to be. Also super comfy bed and fabulous shower!!
