Sunny Home. Hot Tub. Walk to 2 Beaches, Rec Center, Bluff Trail and the Lodge.

Cozy and comfortable beach cottage in the desirable south end of Sea Ranch. Two master bedrooms, each with king beds and ensuite bathrooms, large living and dining rooms with wood burning fireplace, gourmet kitchen, outdoor gas barbeque, vaulted wood ceilings, warm and sunny decks and beautiful views of a meadow, mountains, and sea. A stone’s throw from the Bluff Trail and the ocean and a short walk to Pebble and Black Point Beaches and the Sea Ranch Lodge. Located near the end of a quite, dead-end street, far from the highway. Recently enhanced with skylights, new hot tub and deck, wine cooler, appliances, carpet, furniture, granite countertops, updated bathrooms, flat screen TV's in bedrooms and living room, paid subscription streaming services including Netflix, Amazon prime video, Sling (orange and blue), and Paramount+, custom decorator touches and lots more. Reliable and fast high speed wireless access (100 mps, provided by Sea Ranch Connect) and Bluetooth ready surround sound system!!

The most total reviews, the most 5 star reviews of ANY house in Sea Ranch listed on VRBO. Deal directly with the property owner - not a faceless rental agency. No need to drive to Gualala to pick up or drop off keys. Perfect for a one or two couple get away.

The Sea Ranch is internationally known and revered for its attempt to blend man-made structures with their natural setting. This most picturesque area of California, 100 miles north of San Francisco dotted with distinctive homes, spreads for about ten miles on either side of Highway One in the coastal Sonoma County. The building design is unique in its architecture, and the challenge to 'live lightly on the land' is on-going.

With three swimming pools, saunas, tennis courts, a 18-hole championship golf course, and 50 miles of hiking trails that meander along the coastal cliffs, through meadows and forests, there is no shortage of outdoor activity for your Sea Ranch vacation. And after a hard day of having fun, soak in the spa, have a glass of wine and enjoy the sunset over the ocean.

Sonoma County Transient Occupancy Tax Certificate No. 749N.

A maximum of two small-to-medium dogs allowed. A pet fee of $50 is required.

Beautiful relaxing weekend!
My family and I have been coming to Sea Ranch for 40 years, and have stayed at MANY different properties here. This time, it was just my hubby and I with our family dog…Kodee, celebrating our 35th anniversary. We absolutely loved this property. It was clean, comfortable, well equipped, and the owner left many notes around the house with instructions where things went, how he wanted things done, and how things worked. We truly appreciated this! It kept things organized, and left no questions without answers. It was in a great location. We were able take one of the recommended hikes, and soak in the hot tub after! Had a lovely dinner at Saint Orres….highly recommended. Also cooked a couple delicious meals in this very well equipped kitchen. Very relaxing, enjoyable long weekend! We will be returning!

Comfortable and Convenient
This is the third time we’ve stayed at this property, and it feels like our home away from home now. It’s a perfect size for 3 adults and 2 dogs, and we love the location. There is a view of the ocean from the kitchen, and we love the peaceful view of the meadow from the living room. The hot tub is fabulous, and there is everything you need to cook in the kitchen. There is easy access to the walking trails, and we discovered this time that it’s only a 30 minute, beautiful walk to the lodge. The owner is very communicative. We’ll be back!

We thoroughly enjoyed staying here. The house was immaculate. The kitchen was very well equipped. We enjoyed the scenery a lot and the proximity to wonderful hiking trails.

Lovely stay!
This is a beautiful and well organized beach house. We enjoyed the walk to Shell Beach and watching the hummingbirds in the garden. The deck is perfect for watching the sunset and deer in the meadow. We really appreciated how well stocked the home is and everything is nicely labeled to make your stay easier. We highly recommend and hope to go back again. Thank you Keith!

We had a wonderful time at this home. Good for dogs - but bring an ExPen to fully enclose the small garden area. Well equipped kitchen. House is nicely situated to give easy access to Black Point beach (10 minute walk).

Relaxing break in a beautiful setting!
This home was a great base for exploring Sea Ranch! The kitchen is really well outfitted, the bedrooms spacious. The living room is much bigger than it looked in the photo and has a great view of the meadow. Everything was clean and in great working order. Thank you for a great stay.

Perfect stay and weather
Very well furnished and organized, spacious for four. Beautiful meadow view from deck. Glimpses of the Ocean, along with easy access to the trails along the Pacific bluffs. Just one mile to the SR Lodge and its fine restaurant. Our stay enhanced by a week of beautiful weather in otherwise iffy June.

Perfect for Getaways
The home is perfect for just getting away. On a cul-de-sac which means no cars passing by. Perfect for our Havanese puppy that really loved the wild life directly behind us. We’ve been renting at Sea Ranch for 30+ years. By far, this is the best for just us and maybe one other couple at the most. Quite private for the most part.

Great, relaxing getaway
Keith has to be an engineer. VERY organized which was much appreciated. This is just what we wanted, a quiet, relaxing getaway. Although I road bike 5000 miles a year my 70 year old knee was not happy attempting to get to Black or Pebble Beach. Gualala is a pleasant getaway and the Surf market a very good grocery store. Had dinner in each night. What helped is my brother setting us up with a cooler full of breakfast items that we brought along with us from Santa Rosa. Hot tub was a pleasure and as advertised, always on and very clean. Would not hesitate to go back. Thanks, Keith!

Keith could not have been more obliging to make sure that we had a great stay. Everything is perfectly labeled and check in and out were a breeze. Spa was crystal clear and lots of wood and kindling for the fireplace. Ocean visible from the kitchen and the rest of the house looks over open space frequented by deer. A great combo!

We had a great stay at this home. Fantastic location and super well kept up. This place was one of the cleanest I have seen and it is clear that the owner has put a lot of thought into making his guests a priority. We had zero issues with the stay and the directions and instructions were perfect. Other owners could take a few lessons from this place. Highly recommended!
