We often vacation here for birthdays, holidays, anniversaries, etc. It couldn’t have been better. We think about this place often and how dreamy the entire experience was. The location was unsurpassed. The aesthetic was amazing. Everything was perfect even as I reminisce about it 2 years later. This house was everything.

Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Great rental group and the location was excellent. The home is clearly aging from rentals...stains in carpets, doors won’t close, sliding doors stuck, windows are cloudy, kitchen sink faucet broken, and ants. Property has potential to return it to an earlier state.

The house and the location are just stunning. This was one of the most serene places we've ever stayed. Happy to report that the complaints (which did make us a little apprehensive about this place) were either unfounded or addressed by the owners: - Kitchen was well stocked: pots, pans, utensils--you can cook a modestly-ambitious meal here. The bad: the spices were scant, and the pop-up toaster didn't work (but they have a toaster oven/air fryer!). - House overall was in great shape. Some reviews made it sound dingy, but that was not our experience. There are some nitpicks, but overall very clean and well kept. We saw a few ants, but not enough to worry about at all. - Hot tub worked perfectly. I think we'll be back. The location is unbeatable; it feels like you have the whole shore to yourself. We walked for 2 hours and only saw 3 people. Maybe that's our reward for staying on a weekend with rain in the forecast. Views of the ocean are unobstructed. There's a cluster of large rocks 100ft or so off shore that attracts birds and produce big sprays of water, and you can sit anywhere in the living room and watch. The house is on the northern end of sea ranch, so you can get into Gualala in a few minutes for groceries, dinner, etc.

My wife and I have been spending our anniversaries at Sea Ranch for the last 34 years. We have stayed in a number of different oceanfront homes. This home has a spectacular view of the ocean and evening sunsets. Beds and bedding were very comfortable. Kitchen for the most part was well stocked. A few missing items like a can opener and better wine opener would be expected. I also recommend having a broom and some cleaning products available so guests can keep up on regular cleaning throughout their stay. We would recommend this home for a larger group. It was a big home for two of us but we enjoyed every inch.

The only two hairdryer, no shampoo, bath gel. I feel at these prices those ammenities should be standard. The master bathroom sink pipes need to be cleaned out. The water backed up when trying to brush your teeth, etc.

The views are fantastic, the master bedroom is wonderful, and the upstairs layout with open living, dining, and kitchen space is great. With that said, this house had its issues. We know that ants are an issue during the winter, but they were everywhere in the kitchen, whether we left food out or not. There were a couple ant baits in various places throughout the house, but did not seem to be a concerted effort to deal with the issue. The lighting in the house could use a serious update - the lighting was old and dim, and especially in the kitchen and the bedrooms, it just felt very dark in the house. There were no bedside lights in a downstairs bedroom and it was like a cave in there. The fan for the oven sometimes took hours to go off - it was still going one morning after turning off the oven the night before for dinner. The heat system was older and felt pretty uneven, with the upstairs quite warm and the downstairs bedrooms pretty cold. Overall, it feels like this house was built a while ago, and hasn't really been updated in a long while, except for little things here and there. It could really use a good once over to some of the main systems (lighting and heat). And the ant issue was definitely more than an annoyance. Overall, while we'd love to stay in this house again for the views, location, and upstairs living space, I think we'll probably look elsewhere unless/until the owner decides to give it some more love and attention.

I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Overall, we enjoyed our stay. The house is in a great location with great views from every room. As a long time Sea Ranch renter, I have stayed in nicer houses. Only the front windows were clean, windows on back of the house were very dirty. We had to call to get help opening some windows and found the hot tub dirty and it ended up being broken. So during our week, we lost use of the hot tub for three days. Front door rattled with the wind. No screens on all the sliding glass doors. If I had paid less for the home, I probably wouldn't have the feeling of being overcharged for a house that had the feeling of less care and upkeep because it is a rental.

I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The location and view from the house is unmatched and beautiful! But...the house itself could use some work and a deep clean. It's clear that house has been somewhat neglected. While we were there we had a horrible ant infestation, we had to keep all of our food packed in our ice chest, and even with nightly cleaning the ants were everywhere in the morning. It's clear it was a long term problem as there were dead ants everywhere, on the walls, window sills, bathtub, shower. I was finding them crawling on my clothes. The rental company did admit the house needed a deep clean and were nice enough to refund our cleaning fee. I wish the house was in better shape as I'd love to stay there again. The proximity to the trails is unmatched. Also the heat does not go downstairs, it was a freezer the whole week.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Berk is a fabulous house and ideal location in Sea Ranch. This is the 4th time we rented Berk for a 2 week stay. We are cooks and with many restaurants closed b/c of Covid, we needed/wanted to cook every meal at Berk. Atho the kitchen has good supply of plates/glasses/silverware and most kitchen utensils, anyone who wants to cook at all will need to bring EVERY stock kitchen supply you may need (salt, pepper, sugar, flour, spices, etc). The cupboards are completely bare - which has not been the case in the past. Also, altho we are very clean cooks and empty the trash regularly, ANTS were a real nuisance this year; on the kitchen counters but also crawling on us when sitting in the sofas, etc. We are looking forward to be back in Berk next summer.

Clean, open, and rooms all had great views of the ocean. We have been going to Sea Ranch for some 30 years and this was one of the best places we have stayed at. Had a bad experience with security and Ocean View Property personnel over nothing. Not helpful in time of need for us. May prevent us from going back there.

Amazing location on the bluff trail

Beautiful location and very spacious and well laid out house for our family. Could see whales from the deck. Being right on the bluff trail was convenient to a nice walk and also close to town. House was a bit dated and got very hot despite keeping shades closed in the afternoon hence one star less. But overall a great stay in TSR!

The views are amazing. Beds and great room furniture comfortable. We were a three-generation group and the configuration of the bedrooms was perfect for us. DO remember to bring: all condiments, spices, plastic baggies, auto dish soap, hand dish soap, all personal bathroom supplies except bar soap, an extra roll of paper towels (one supplied but no napkins). The kitchen has lots of pots/pans, tons of dishes, very few glasses so these we washed by hand so they could be reused. Enjoyed the beach and basically had it to ourselves.

Great location for peace and solitude

Great location for peace and solitude

Beautiful home in beautiful location right on the bluff overlooking the ocean. Great place to spend a week while also sheltering in place. The home is a little worn but was very comfortable. WiFi signal is ok in living room, but very week in other parts of the house, so keep this in mind if you are planning to work remotely. Each bedroom has fantastic light and ocean views. Strong ocean winds and bright afternoon sunlight (that heats the house) are somethings you have to contend with so just know that is what you are signing up for. Bring warm clothes if you sit outside and close the blinds in the afternoon to keep the house cool! The bluff trail was amazing, providing a scenic and easy trail along the ocean. 1 mile North you can access a sandy beach to walk on. So many sea birds to watch and deer grazing in the field. And so many puzzles! Definitely recommend.

Whales out your window

Whales out your window

We came here to celebrate our son's first birthday. The whales were migrating and we saw them out the window every single day, looking up from doing dishes or making dinner. We'd fall asleep on the wide, comfy window seats staring at the stars. We'd walk for miles every day out the front door and along the bluff trail. (You can walk easily all the way to Gualala Beach). Excellent for children, excellent for adults. We stayed cozy with the automatic fire places. We cooked every night in the well stocked kitchen. This is a beautiful, easy to be in home. We will absolutely come back.

The views and location were ideal for whale watching and hiking along the coast. The only opportunity for improvement would be upgrades to the hot tub and outdoor furniture. Otherwise, the experience was ideal and extremely comfortable.
