    Inverness Valley Inn was a great place to stay for our young family of 4. We wanted to get away from the city for a few days. Inverness Valley Inn provide friendly service, clean rooms, and a wonderful farm-type of atmosphere. Our kids loved feeding the animals, reading in the hammocks, playing tennis with mom and dad, and gazing at the Milky Way through the crystal clear sky. The restaurant options are not that great in the area, BUT we did not get out of the city to eat out every meal. Many of the rooms have kitchenette's that will serve you well if you come prepared. We are definitely going back for another stay.

    We loved our stay at the Inn. Can't wait to get back again. Loved the little kitchen so we could do our own cooking.

    I had a wonderful time with 3 friends celebrating a 70th birthday. The Inverness Inn was my kind of place, comfortable, clean and very friendly. I loved talking to Leslie about the animals and how they harvest the wool. We took a hike in the rain but it was still very enjoyable. Thank you so much.

    Whenever we want to have a romantic weekend walking the beaches and trails of Pt Reyes, having slow mornings in a gorgeous setting and sleeping in cozy accommodations beneath fine artwork with redwood trees right outside our windows, with acres around us of woods and meadows and stream, we go out to the Inverness Valley Inn. It is a "people's" Inn, comfortable and warm, private and close to some of the most beautiful natural wonders in the world. Over the years, Leslie and Alden Adkins have become friends, and we've gotten to see the sheep and goats on their little farm produce babies, and eaten the fresh fresh eggs from their hens of a morning. It's a place like home, but better because of where it is located. If you are looking for high-end modern, this is not your place; but if you want down-home comfort with the amazing amenities of the natural world, we recommend this highly.

    Stayed Memorial Day weekend 2009--three families, 5 kids, 5 adults. Loads of fun on the tennis court. The kids loved the owners' fleet of goats, yaks, chickens, etc. Proximity to great hikes. Rooms comfortable.
