The property location is beautiful and has very nice outdoor deck with a wonderful view. It worked well for our family and vendors that was providing lodging for my daughter’s wedding in the area. The house is “lived in” but is well maintained. The owner was very responsive to me on a couple of issues and she was out of the country too which I found very responsive.

2.0 / 10.0
The property is poor maintain, with dirty carpet covered with multiple dirty rugs, which is a huge fall risk. The bathrooms are small and very old. The closets are full with old blankets and other staff. The towels are at least 30 years old. It was the worst property at See Ranch since we started to go there 25 years ago. It was embarrassing to bring our friends there. Sad.

We loved our stay in The Rookery. The views are breathtaking and the home was perfect for a mini-stay in Sea Ranch. We enjoyed a nightly soak in the hot tub and a daily walk through the gorgeous neighborhood and trails. Leila is communicative and very kind. We’d love to stay here again!

Booked and got no check in info. Employees waited while we tried to contact host and even had to contact VRBO and then reach out. Ended up having to rush and buy 3 hotel rooms 200 each and yes host refunded money but not even full amount. Little disappointed in lack communication.

The house was a true pleasure including the perfect layout of rooms, bathrooms and communal spaces; with many windows looking out on nature; the deck was wonderful with a great view; the house had everything that could possibly be needed; the design, decoration and accessories were warm and inviting; all the instructions were easy to follow. Thank you!

We had a wonderful long weekend at The Rookery in Sea Ranch. The house was spacious, cozy, peaceful and very private with lovely views. It had everything we needed for our family of four to unwind and have fun - including wonderful gathering spaces to sit in front of the fire, watch movies and play games as well as plenty of room to spread out and read quietly. The outside deck is wonderful and large with places to lounge or dine and has a spacious hot tub and lovely flower garden. We enjoyed seeing fox, turkeys, a bald eagle, the ocean and the sunset all from the house and deck. The sitting area in the master bedroom (which has floor to ceiling windows was a tranquil haven for this as well). We also loved the radiant heat in the ensuite bathroom. Host Leila was gracious, timely, and incredibly helpful in responding to our inquiries and questions. In addition to loving the house and our host we were blown away by all Sea Ranch has to offer including heated pools, saunas, tennis and pickleball courts and a lending library with books, puzzles and games. We were able to hike from the house up to see lovely vistas and down to the bluff trail and beaches which were breathtaking! We can wait to visit Sea Ranch again and stay in this warm and welcoming home!

Leila was very communicative and provided very clear instructions for access and check-in/out. This house is absolutely beautiful!! Very comfortable stay for a group of girls. Would book again
10.0 / 10.0
We found the place clean, well stocked, beautiful, and we preferred the lived-in feeling of it, as opposed to it feeling like a hotel. That's just personal preference. Most importantly to me, Leila was super responsive, kind, and helpful. I will say that if you are expecting 3 bedrooms, like I mistakenly was, you might consider renting the studio. This was my mistake, to be clear--I simply didn't realize that there are 2 bedrooms listed. I read the number of beds and assumed they were each in a bedroom. Makes sense, but also, this isn't my first time renting such a place, so I should have known better. Thank you, Leila!

I came here with 4 friends for a relaxing weekend and this place totally fit the bill! Huge, comfy window seat overlooking the hillside and the sea, lots of space, a roaring fire, and the best-stocked kitchen and bookcases I've ever seen in an VRBO rental. Great experience all around!

Great for our visit for a Sea Ranch Wedding (5 min to the Lodge). We admittedly didn’t have too much time in the house but it served its purpose. Not particularly modern, but spacious and has a great deck.

A great stay. Beautiful architecture inside. We thoroughly enjoyed the beautiful deck, hot tub, and hummingbirds. Pictures are accurate. Everything in good working order. Sea Ranch passes were appreciated and put to good use. A peaceful retreat.

Everyone loved the place, especially the outdoor deck and dining area. Kitchen was well equipped. Views from all rooms were lovely. Some in our party felt the hot tub could be hotter. Also, the many floor runners were a bit hazardous for our 89 year old friend, who needs to use a walker. I bet the owners wouldn’t have minded if we’d picked them up and stashed them some place—they and the manager are very responsive and kind(!)—but we didn’t think to ask. All in all, a four star, three-day getaway. We will cherish the memories.
