Such a beautiful spot to escape and enjoy the coast! The oceanfront setting made this a special stop on our anniversary trip. We loved having time to slow down, take in the views, and enjoy a little getaway with our closest friends. Our only wish was that we could have stayed longer! We would love to come back and spend more time here.

Enjoyed our second four day visit to this house. Like great views, clean, well stocked kitchen & nicely furnished. Two trees are blocking a lot of the beautiful ocean view & need trimming plus the yard in entry needs care as detracts from otherwise positive feelings. Good place overall.

Thank you, Norman, for staying with us again! We’re so glad you enjoyed your second visit and continue to appreciate the views, cleanliness, and amenities. We also appreciate your feedback about the trees and entry landscaping and will be giving those areas some attention. It was a pleasure having you back, and we hope to welcome you for a third visit!

Beautiful home with the most spectacular viewsThis home was one of the most beautiful homes I’ve ever seen. Every window pointed towards the beautiful coast of view. It was a very comfortable, convenient location. The beds and furniture were very comfortable. The bathrooms were up-to-date and very clean. The kitchen stocked beautifully with everything that we needed. They even left a sweet little gift. We do plan to come back to this home someday. We created great memories and plan to create many more.

Amazing views and thoughtful touches around the house really made our stay enjoyable. Definitely one of the cleanest homes we’ve rented in the Sea Ranch/Gualala area as well. We’d 100% stay here again if the opportunity arises.

We rent a lot of CA beach houses in our travels & this is one of our favorites after just spending five days there. Great location, stunning views, clean, well furnished & stocked, good hot tub & nice remodel. One suggestive criticism would be to spruce up the yard which is pretty but needs some TLC. Norm
