About this house rental
Summary:
Curl up by the fireplace as fog rolls in off the Pacific. Room for 6 in this 2-bedroom home. Sea Ranch community pools, tennis courts, and the Lodge are nearby. Miles of bluff-top trails and hidden beaches are yours to explore. The rhythm of the waves sets the pace here -- unhurried mornings, lingering sunsets, deep sleep.
The Space:
Tucked at the edge of a cypress grove with a view of the ocean across the meadow, this inviting home is classic Sea Ranch in every sense. From the cozy interior to the banks of windows, the decks on two sides to the private hot tub, this is a place for relaxing into the wild beauty of the Northern California Coast.
This two-story home boasts an ideal location near the heart of Sea Ranch, right around the corner from the Shell Beach access trail. You'll be next door to One Eyed Jack's picnic area and playground and only a matter of steps from the oceanfront Bluff Trail. When you're not tidepooling or watching the harbor seals play, you'll be within two miles of two of the Sea Ranch rec centers (Del Mar and Ohlson), each with its own heated outdoor pool, tennis courts, and saunas.
As you step inside, you'll be greeted by lofty ceilings and a wall of windows that fill the house with sunlight and views. The great room is adorned with natural wood from top to bottom, providing warmth and atmosphere whether you're reading in the window seat or playing board games around the dining room table. Enjoy an open kitchen with stainless steel appliances and a living area where you can stream movies in the warmth of a wood-burning fireplace.
Take morning hikes on the Bluff Trail, stop by Shell Beach at low tide, and return home in time for a barbecue lunch on the sheltered deck. In the evenings, take in spectacular sunsets from the living room before heading outside to stargaze in the hot tub. In addition to the two bedrooms downstairs, there's a sleeping loft on the second floor that doubles as the perfect home office.

Guest Access:
Step inside and settle in -- every room and amenity in this home is yours for your stay. The private hot tub is available around the clock -- no reservation needed. Driveway parking is available at the property. Detailed check-in instructions, including the door code, will be provided prior to your arrival.

The Neighborhood:
Perched along the Sonoma Coast, The Sea Ranch is a nature lover's paradise -- think tidepools, wildflower meadows, and redwood groves at your doorstep. Nearby highlights include Shell Beach tidepools (3-minute drive), community heated pool (North) (3-minute drive), The Sea Ranch Lodge restaurant, lounge and café (3-minute drive). Explore over Sea Ranch's 50 miles of trails, discover tidepools at low tide, swim in heated community pools, and end the day with dinner at The Sea Ranch Lodge. Gualala is a quick 10-minute drive south for groceries, dining, and fuel. For a scenic outing, Jenner and Bodega Bay are further down Highway 1.
Getting Around:
Sea Ranch is about 2.5 hours north of San Francisco -- take Highway 101 to Highway 1 for one of California's most scenic coastal drives. The nearest airport is Charles M. Schulz-Sonoma County Airport (STS) in Santa Rosa, roughly 90 minutes east. A car is the way to go for exploring the area.
Other Things to Note:
Streaming services are available with guests' own account credentials.
The sleeping loft is accessed by a ladder staircase.
Sea Ranch has three recreation centers with heated pools, saunas, and tennis courts. Access passes are provided with your stay -- check availability upon arrival as these shared amenities can be popular during peak times.
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.

Great house. Great location
8 / 10Excellent·Nov 2025
The house was nice and comfortable. Instructions for operating the fireplace flu would be welcomed. The gas bbq ignition button was broken which made lighting the grill difficult and dangerous. The bed covers and throw blankets could use cleaning.
10 / 10Outstanding·Jul 2025
The house was fantastic. 1 block from 1 eyed Jack park and a 3 minute walk to Shell beach and 2 minute drive to the Leeward pool. House was perfect with hot tub, 2 bedrooms, 2 bathroom’s and a loft with 2 beds. Easy to clean and a beautiful view looking out towards the ocean. Perfect for beach time, book time or nap time as needed.
6 / 10Average·Sep 2024
House and location are good. Initial inspection of property was clean in kitchens and bath which have been recently remodeled, but with very low flow shower heads. Quickly realized they had not cleaned or vacuumed upstairs loft in quite a long time, which is only accessible by an 8’ ladder that is honestly dangerous. Very dusty and LOTS of cobwebs and dead bugs. Cushions by windows haven’t been cleaned in awhile and contained gross brownish- red stain which was kind of gross. Discovered a black widow under the pillow. Property management company did send someone to clean loft and spa which had floating chunky white substance in it after jets settled. They cleaned spa which was better but loft had a quick once over where the vacuumed around items without moving anything and dead bugs remained. Cobwebs everywhere and walls need a serious wipe down. Still a decent property with potential, but disappointed in basic cleanliness.
Broken items: back door lock, screen door (was on ground when we arrived), loft lamps and fan.
