About this house rental

Located on the beautiful Northern California coast between the historic town of Mendocino (30 miles/48 km North) and the artist community of Gualala (20 miles/32 km South), this extraordinary 2-bath, 3-bedroom retreat -- all on one level, aside from a sunken living room (1 step) – features incredible Pacific Ocean views from virtually every room. See Point Arena Light House, open meadows filled with wildlife, and magical sunsets. Built by a well-known artist, the home features multiple pieces of original artwork below cathedral ceilings. A level 2 Enphase HCS50 EV charger with a J1772 plug (aka J plug or Type 1 connector) is available for guest use.

Bring food and drink to create a special recipe in the well-equipped kitchen which features new appliances, including a refrigerator, microwave, and range with a convection oven. Enjoy a meal in the adjoining dining area with an ocean view.

The master and second bedrooms are in separate wings of the house, ensuring privacy whenever you want it. The master opens to a deck with ocean views, has a Cal King bed, a reading area, and ample closet space. The expansive master bath offers a huge two-person all tile shower. The second bedroom has ocean views, a king bed, many shelves of books, and a large closet. The second bathroom is next door and features a deep infinity tub/shower with fantastic ocean views.

A third bedroom/office has a queen futon, a desk & printer, and a full wall of closet space.

We welcome children, but the home is not childproofed and some original artwork features tasteful female nudes.

The large, comfortable living room overlooks the ocean, has mid-century modern furniture, a fireplace, board games, and a flat screen TV with Netflix, Max, Disney Plus, YouTubeTV, and Amazon Prime shows & movies available to easily stream (just press a button) via fast, unlimited internet. An HDMI cable is provided so you can connect to your computer. There is no 'regular' television service.

Take an easy drive up the coast to Mendocino and Fort Bragg or south to the Point Arena light house. Enjoy the sounds of breaking waves, see migrating whales, walk or drive to the private 8-mile beach or Pomo Lake, visit Anderson Valley wineries, sample fare at remarkable restaurants & bakeries. Or do nothing...just relax.

Forget something? No worries! A well-stocked grocery store is located in Manchester, 4 miles/6.5 km south. Want a little excitement? Visit the casino/restaurant, tour the lighthouse, or take in a movie in the town of Point Arena, 8 miles/13 km south.

Come visit, we'd love to hear from you!

Absolutely lovely home but also super comfortable!

It was so nice to sit out on the decks of the property and hear the ocean waves below. We saw a family of deer, a bobcat and many birds flying around the home and it was so peaceful!

We all thought this house was beautifully designed, with a well appointed kitchen and jaw dropping views. A one of a kind and very comfortable.

Karla is an excellent host with so much attention to details to make your stay comfortable and memorable. Can’t put into words how wonderful the view is and how pleasant an afternoon on the deck watching the sunset is. Wry relaxing get away for homebodies. Not the variety of activities as in places to the north, plan on eating in. Restaurants are few and uneven. But great store in Manchester to buy all you need to cook for yourself. Bring books and plant yourself by the windows and let go!
