Looking for a casual Northern California rental with great ocean views? Look no further than Rainbow's End, a charming Sea Ranch home newly renovated with an expanded kitchen and master bath, and offering a private hot tub and dog-friendly accommodations not far from Black Point Beach. Whether traveling with friends or family, you won't find a more perfect getaway for relaxation and outdoor recreation!

This Northern California vacation rental is located in The Sea Ranch, a unique community in just south of Gualala and about 50 miles south of Mendocino. Guests of all ages will love spending days walking along the Bluff Trail and down to the beach or even walking to the Sea Ranch Lodge for a glass of wine on a sunny afternoon. When you're ready to spend long days along the surf, Black Point Beach is also a short walk from home.

Beach-inspired decor and wood paneling offer a laid-back environment to the house, making it the ultimate family getaway. The open floor plan is perfect for entertaining and features a family room and fully stocked kitchen (including a dishwasher), each with fantastic views overlooking the meadow and ocean. Bring a good book and iced tea for afternoons reading in a chaise lounge on the deck, or pack a picnic basket for the beach!

The nearby Surf Market and Gualala Supermarket will keep your cupboards full and let you treat guests to home cooked meals. At mealtimes, gather around the dining table with seating for six, or take the feast outdoors. Sunshine and the fresh ocean breeze will draw your group outside for a barbecue on the large front deck and into the hot tub by night fall. Don't feel like cooking? Dine at Black Point Grill located in Sea Ranch Lodge. You can even pick up a souvenir after dinner for loved ones back home.

Rainbow's End features four bedrooms, two full baths, and laundry facilities. Six guests will comfortably share the space, choosing from a king or queen suite downstairs, or two twin suites in the loft. When not exploring the Bluff Trail or beaches, relax at home with a movie on cable or DVD.

The Sea Ranch is great for active groups! Bring your clubs to spend days on the green at the Sea Ranch Golf Links, or lace up your walking shoes and explore the bluff lined trails. Nearby Stewarts Point State Marine Conservation Area and Salt Point State Park feature rugged terrain and breathtaking ocean vistas for your travels. Your four-legged friend will love playing fetch on the beach as one dog is welcome here!

After a long day outdoors, you'll love soaking in your private hot tub! Nearby Gualala is a popular community for artists - wander through art exhibits at Studio 391 in Cypress Village. Further north, the Mendocino Coast offers breathtaking sights and lighthouses including Point Cabrillo and Point Arena.

Whether you seek a thrilling adventure, or a quiet retreat along the Northern California Coast, Rainbow's End at Sea Ranch is the perfect hideaway!

Great Sea Ranch location
Sea Ranch is just such a great place! This house is on the newer side. Everyone in our party had a private room. Very close to the ocean and one of the pools. Relaxing walk to the Sea Ranch lodge - they just remodeled it and there is a very nice cafe there.

Suggestions
The only (small) complaint we have is that we called beforehand, inquired about condiments and spices and were told there was none. In fact, the unit was amply supplied with spices and other pantry items. You should perhaps also inform guests that the unit is equipped with a coffee maker.

Fantastic Views
The house was beautiful and well equipped. Enjoyed our stay! Second bathroom on the smaller side. The location is walkable to the lodge and rec center. Only downside is that it's situated right off Highway 1, with infrequent traffic noise. Keep in mind that the walk to the coastal trail is 10 minutes.

Best Sea Ranch Home
This is the best home we’ve rented in the 11 years we’ve been visiting Sea Ranch. Clean and well decorated with a fully stocked kitchen (appliances, utensils, etc.). Very comfortable, great location for hikes to Pebble and other beaches, and the right amount pillows and towels. Vacasa is an excellent property management group!

A lovely spot
Very well maintained and suitable for a family of 5 and dog. If you have little kids, the spiral staircase might be problematic. For a rental that was so well-equipped, it was strange there was no abrasive sponge for pots, no tupperware for food storage, and -- a real issue! - no map of Sea Ranch. It took us 2 days to figure out how to get a map of Sea Ranch (you have to buy it at the Sea Ranch Association office, they are closed Mondays) and the whole point of Sea Ranch is to walk and bike! I think either a map should be provided or obvious instructions should be provided about where to obtain the map. Finally, if you go, there are a lot of extra towels on top of the washing machine. It took us days to find extra towels which was odd for such a well-supplied house. This house is near CA-1 and fairly far from beach, but a nice walk to the beach, so not a problem. The houses nearer the beach are doubtless more pricey.

Quiet and clean
This is a lovely house, situated close the Hwy 1 but still just a short walk to the extensive Sea Ranch trail network. I took many long walks and enjoyed sitting on the comfy sofa with a book, looking out toward the ocean. The kitchen was less stocked than some (a single 1/3 cup dry measuring cup and no others?) but I still did a little baking during my stay. Everything was clean and tidy.

Beautiful home!
Hello, We had a wonderful time staying at Rainbows End! The house is newly remodeled, everything was clean and new. The hot tub was a nice touch. We watched the sunset on the ocean from the houses hot tub at night. We made all our meals in this house and found their kitchen well appointed. Plenty of firewood to make fires every night. We went on lots of hikes, runs and bike rides. We loved visiting ‘Shell Beach’ and ‘Walk on Beach’ where we found tide pools for our young kids to explore in. All around a very peaceful vacation!

Perfect weekend getaway for everyone
We had a really wonderful experience, this place is a gem. When we arrived there was an issue with getting in because the key flew out of the lock box and into a crack in the deck (not retrievable.) HOWEVER- I called and it was fixed within less than 10 minutes- very impressed and thank you. We arrived with a dog, 2 year old and 5 adults who wanted to hike and have bubbly in the hot tub. Amazingly this place accommodated all of us! Also when we showed up the hot tub was on and hot! - thank you! (We have had many experiences where you have to turn it on and it takes a day to heat and by the time it’s hot you have to leave.) So again thank you! The house was wonderful and clean and all the details taken care of.
