The house is super clean, full of amenities and super comfortable beds with soft sheets. Good nature views and peaceful to spend time on the back deck. The king bed and extra twin is upstairs via a very narrow & steep spiral staircase. This is pictured in the listing. Sea Ranch is very relaxing and we loved walking along the cliffs and exploring the beaches. Very relaxing getaway.

Kathryn, I am so happy you enjoyed Sea Ranch. Yes, the spiral staircase is narrow. It is not ideal for anyone who may be unsteady on their feet. My 86-year-old mother goes up and down it, but some folks find it difficult to navigate. I am glad you had a relaxing time, and I am so happy you enjoyed Sea Ranch. We love to host folks at our home who love the northern coast. Thank you again for renting our little slice of Heaven! Cari

Definitely a cozy place. A well-equipped kitchen. Rear deck with a soothing view of the ocean. Enjoyed the hot tub. Comfortable beds. Plenty of plush towels. Lots of hiking trails to explore. A wall of books to choose from if we'd forgotten to bring ours. Deer wandering by. Chatty mountain jays. We had a lovely stay!

Cari was very welcoming and everything was super easy to navigate from the check in process, using everything in the house, and more. Highly recommend. Only thing to be aware of is the second floor (where one bedroom and the bathtub is) is accessible with a steep spiral staircase.
