About this house rental

Summary:

A cozy cove cottage where the large deck and fenced yard take in ocean and rocky-cliff views up and down the coast — with a private outdoor hot tub for soaking it all in. Gualala Point Regional Park, river kayaking, and coastal bluff hikes anchor the days. Sleeps 4 in 1 bedroom, a short drive from downtown galleries and dining.



The Space:

This cozy cove cottage provides you with everything you need to feel right at home during your Gualala getaway.



A large deck and a fenced yard give you and your guests plenty of space to spread out and take in the striking views of the ocean and the rocky cliffs of the California Coast. Best of all, this home also includes a private outdoor hot tub where you can soak your worries away. Sorry for any inconvenience this may cause.



KITCHEN & DINING

The kitchen has everything you need to prepare meals during your stay. With seating for your group, mealtimes become part of the experience.



GUALALA COVE AND POINT

Gualala Point Regional Park, river kayaking, and coastal bluff hikes anchor days from this cove-adjacent home — local galleries and groceries sit a short drive south on Highway 1.



INTERIOR FLOW

Ocean-facing living space pairs with a full kitchen and deck time — three bedrooms sleep the listed guest count with hot tub evenings after tidepool walks.



RIVER AND BLUFF DAYS

The Gualala River mouth and coastal bluff trails reward half-day outings; pack binoculars for harbor seals and seasonal gray whales.



SLEEPING ARRANGEMENTS

Choose from 1 bedroom. Altogether, the home comfortably sleeps 2.

Driveway parking is available at the property. Detailed check-in instructions, including the door code, will be provided prior to your arrival.



The Neighborhood:

Nestled where the Gualala River meets the Pacific, this small coastal town offers local dining, art galleries, and easy access to Gualala Point Regional Park. Kayak the river, explore tide pools, or hike the coastal bluffs -- all within minutes.



Getting Around:

From San Francisco, the drive is about 2.5 hours via Highway 101 to Highway 1. Fly into Santa Rosa's Charles M. Schulz-Sonoma County Airport (STS), about 90 minutes east, and drive the coast from there. Having a car opens up the entire Mendonoma Coast.



Other Things to Note:

The fireplace in the photos has been removed, and we are working on updating the photos.



Whale watching season runs from December through April -- grab the binoculars and watch for gray whale spouts from your window. Spring wildflowers (April-June) blanket the coastal headlands and the banks of the Gualala River with vibrant color. Summer on the Mendonoma Coast (June-September) means warm days and the occasional morning fog that burns off by lunch.



Cell service can be spotty along the coast. The home has WiFi for staying connected.

The view from this property is absolutely incredible—truly 10/10 and the highlight of our stay.Unfortunately, there were serious safety and maintenance concerns that significantly impacted our experience. My husband fell through a weakened section of the deck next to the hot tub, which is a major safety hazard and could easily result in serious injury. This issue should be addressed immediately.Additionally, the bathroom and kitchen are in need of updates. The shower handle kept falling off when we turned it on and the outdoor barbecue was a challenge to use as we had to lift propane tank up onto something to make a connection. These areas would benefit from maintenance and upgrades to ensure guest comfort and usability.With repairs and improvements, this property has the potential to be a wonderful place to stay, but guests should be aware of these concerns.
