One of the most comfortable stays that I’ve had. Great little kitchen, and the view is obviously amazing. Were I to come back I would absolutely stay here again.

This place is a gem! The location is perfect- stunning views and ultra private yet close drive to the little town center. I loved the minimalist design and decor. The bed was super comfortable and the kitchen was stocked with quality cookware and the provided coffee beans were fresh and delicious. We enjoyed our breakfast out on the deck in the warm sunshine, watching the tides come in and out. We can’t wait to come back! Something to keep in mind while planning for your stay at Moonrise: there is no TV (which is perfect for when you want to get away and stay unplugged) and don’t forget to bring your own toiletries- there’s was a nice 3 in 1 soap but you might want something more.

Great stay ... awesome views
Wonderful. The views make the place very special. Very clean and well maintained. Washing machine ended up being super beneficial, as Point Reyes hiking trails are very overgrown with lots of poison oak.
