Exterior lighting is minimal by design to preserve the stunning dark sky -- bring a flashlight for evening walks and enjoy some of the best stargazing on the California coast.
Keep your eyes on the horizon from December to April -- gray whales migrate just offshore, and this property has a front-row seat. Visit in spring and the meadows explode with wildflowers. April through June is peak bloom season along the Sonoma Coast. The warmest months are June through September. Expect coastal fog most mornings that gives way to sunny afternoons.
Cell service can be spotty along the coast. The home has WiFi for staying connected.

House and location were beautiful! Loved the hot tub! Heater went out 1st night. Vacasa and Herb were amazing at taking care of that for us very swiftly and happily. We had an excellent experience and will definitely rent this home again!
Literally next to all the paths and beaches you can explore. Comfortable beds, very clean and stocked with supplies. We especially loved the window seating, it was a really comfortable place to relax with a view.

Nice views, very quiet
Great view of the ocean. Very quiet, even with construction next door. Frogs near the hot tub are always fun to see!
Located at the north end of Sea Ranch by the golf course, this home has easy access to the bluff trails for hiking and is close to where the harbor seals hang out. We could hear the ocean from the hot tub at night while star-gazing. The home was clean and bright, and the kitchen was well-stocked with spices and great cookware (which can be rare at rentals!). I would definitely stay here again.

What a gem!
We truly enjoyed our stay in this spacious, squeaky clean house with an amazing kitchen. The view is priceless, the proximity to the bluff and beaches are short. We have had our fair share of houses in Sea Ranch and this was easily in the top three. Would book it again for sure!

That kitchen!
We had a wonderful stay. The hot tub was just what we wanted. The access to trails is great. Comfy furniture, WiFi worked flawlessly. But the newly remodeled kitchen! What a pleasure to have all the tools and gadgets you’d want, in a beautiful space with even an induction cooktop to try out. We can’t wait to go back.

Beautiful home in a spetacular environment
What a lovely home in a lovely environment! It was spacious, well equiped, with a private hot tub, lovely views of the ocean in the distance. We took daily walks to the ocean, saw seals and on low tide we found other ocean life between the rocks. The golf course is right outside, where deer regularly graze.
Overall the 3days were lovely. The house is conducive to rest and relaxation.
Suggestions: shower curtain is torn and poorly hung
Dishes badly chipped, need to replace
Front walk needs work and gate broken. Very difficult for older parents and also for a person on a walker to enter the house

Thank you for sharing your experience, we're delighted that you had a lovely stay! That said, we apologize for the areas you felt in need of some TLC and have shared your comments with the local manager. They assured us that the shower curtain has been replaced and the dishes inspected and found to be in good shape. Additionally, the gate is working properly and they will work with the homeowner to address any areas of concern with the front walkway. We appreciate your feedback and we hope to host you again.

Very comfortable Sea Ranch home
We enjoyed our 3 night stay at this comfortable home. Everything was very clean and workable. The kitchen was amply stocked with utensils, pots and pans, even coffee filters for the coffee maker. The TV enabled us to us our accounts to stream; just remember to sign out when you leave. The back deck with hot tub is wonderful. They even had a candle to use outdoors. We will come again.
Except I messaged management via VRBO for some info about the house: linens, electronics, kitchen ware, etc. and never heard back.
It would NOT keep me from renting this house again as the house was great. Either the host or VRBO simply failed on the communication front is all and has room for improvement.
We loved the rental property. Everything was well-kept and clean. Kitchen items were well stocked. Some tiles were chipped (in the foyer and kitchen area), but did not interfere with our stay. Watch out for the master bathroom sliding door which could be stuck if you were not careful. I had to text my son to help me out of the bathroom. The towels are thin so perhaps the management could upgrade the quality of the towels. The hot tub was excellent and was used frequently by our family. It was an overall a very pleasant and relaxing stay. Thank you.

Perfect Sea Ranch escape!
The pictures in the listing did not do this house justice. It was so beautiful, comfortable and spacious. There was plenty of room for a group to be together in the living room. We enjoyed taking turns on the huge and comfortable window seat. The loft was a quiet, private spot for our teenage son. The kitchen had all that we could possibly need as far as basic kitchen appliances, cooking utensils, pots, pans, spices and oils. We were pleased that there was no smell of mold, which is common in the damp climate. We did not need any groceries from Gualala, but we did go into town to our favorite shop, Bodega Sport and Tackle, which is a great place for souvenirs and beach supplies. We loved being so close to Gualala on this stay!
We have stayed at many homes in Sea Ranch and this is now our favorite! We plan to return.
