About the host
Hosted by Terry

I live in the SF Bay Area and absolutely love Northern California. I love traveling and always looking for the next destination. I have been to 6 of the 7 continents.
I own a home in Gualala (along the Mendocino County coast) and spend a significant amount of time there, and love sharing my special piece of the California coast with others.

Why they chose this property
The views of the ocean are spectacular, and in particular, you will love the sunsets when the fog is offshore (although the fog can be magical). You will love sleeping to the sound of the waves. There are some fantastic restaurants and super markets, all about a 2 minute drive away. There are also some great beach spots very close by as well.
What makes this property unique
Enjoy beautiful sunrise and sunset over the Pacific Ocean from deck, patio or the hot tub; Whale watching from the house on a lucky day; Mexican food restaurant right across the street from the house
