Offering an enviable location just up the road from Shell Beach, this Sea Ranch home provides wonderful comfort with a blue-water view of the ocean. You'll be able to stroll to the oceanfront Bluff Trail in a matter of minutes each morning, and be welcomed home by an enclosed garden terrace with a private hot tub.

This home was built in the classic Sea Ranch style, with a reverse floor plan that places the main living space upstairs on the second floor. This great room is both open and inviting, offering lofty ceilings of natural wood, a wall of windows that face the ocean, and a sofa, a plush armchair, and built-in window seats to help you admire the view. You can curl up with a book in the warmth of the wood-burning fireplace, set up a board game at the dining room table, or turn on a movie while keeping one eye peeled for whale spouts.

Begin each morning with a visit to the outdoor pool, tennis courts, and saunas at the nearby Ohlson Recreation Center, and come home to unwind on the back terrace. This fenced outdoor space is perfectly sheltered from the wind, featuring a private hot tub, a gas grill, and a table for al fresco meals. Back inside, the kitchen has every necessary appliance and bar seats for three sous chefs.

After a day spent hiking, beachcombing, and tide-pooling, you'll find the two ocean view bedrooms on the lower level. Additional amenities include private laundry facilities and free WiFi throughout the house.

Good for the price
This is a comfortable house and is fairly priced. We stayed with our two dogs and appreciated the enclose yard. The inside is clean with very comfortable seating. The outside could use a little attention. There were no cushions for any of the chairs or chaise lounge and cobwebs everywhere. The location is close to Highway 1 so during the day the car noise was very noticeable. On the plus side the house is close to trails to the beach and bluff.

Overall a great home for a small family getaway, but could use few minor upgrades and repairs. Would definitely recommend staying there.

Accessibility
Location is beautiful and easy drive or walk to beach access. Suggestions for owner/property management or for potential renters: This home is not the best for those with mobility limitations as the kitchen/living space is upstairs and the stairs are slippery wood and the hand rail is low. The bedrooms & bathroom is downstairs so up & down is a necessity. Area rugs could use non slip pads or adhesive underneath as they would slip when walking (again a hardship if mobility limitations exist). The bath/shower combo is difficult to enter & exit as it was slippery and no grab bars. Bedroom with king bed lacks ventilation as window does not open and there are no screens on sliders. Only other complaint would be that the jets in hot tub are almost non existent so if a hot tub is a top search feature….this hot tub is more like an outdoor bath, albeit lovely as it sits under a flowering tree that was filled with hummingbirds. Loved the bar apparatus that made it very easy to remove & place the hot tub cover (great invention!) The house was well stocked with dishes, glassware, kitchen appliances & utensils, extra blankets, towels, etc. Not zhushy per se but comfortable. Happy to see that new outdoor furniture was being replaced as we were leaving, as they had definitely ran out their life span.

Retro feel
If you like the 70s then this may be the place. I do, so I enjoyed it. Some of the things are a little rundown but if the price is right then I recommend. Great view of the ocean. Hot tub situated under the trees. Kitchen a bit lacking in supplies but sufficient. Bedrooms nice, comfortable. There was no firewood supplied so pick some up on the way or in Gualala at the market. Watch out for ticks in the yard, they are abundant.

Relaxing and needs tlc
Lovely great room views and comfy beds. The jets on the hot tub are low-pressure (see other reviews) but the tub was hot. My only real concern was a rental in Sonoma had only 3 wine gkasses.this is wine country. Whats up with that?

Cozy cottage with nice, but basic, amenities.
Nice location with views of the ocean in the distance. My only reservations were (l) the jets in the spa were really weak, (2) the shower head in the only shower was really short, and (3) I wish the online listing had mentioned that you need to bring your own coffee. But the cottage had a nice, rustic feel and made for a nice weekend visit overall.

Good enough
This property was good enough for a short family getaway. The main living space is nice and open and the beds are super comfy. Otherwise the place is in need of some major updates. The bathroom was pretty terrible - worse than what you’d get at a motel. The shower head in particular was really low - tough to use if your >5’8”. The kitchen was passable, but could also use an update. It did the trick for a few days though. The outdoor deck space was really nice, but the jets on the hot tub didn’t really work. The location was great though! Easy acess to town and walking distance to the beach. If you’re looking for a no-frills stay at Sea Ranch this place is good enough.

Lovely, just had a little bit of an ant issue. Old house, to be expected, but pretty intense. Otherwise, just lovely.

Great location, dog friendly 🐕🐕
We had a nice cozy time at this home with our two Golden’s! Very walkable for nice coastal walks in the mornings and evenings. We forgot to pick up rental packet in gualala and had to go back, but overall it was cozy, we had nice dinners in by the fire, fun having a hot tub, and great views to cozy up and relax.

cozy, great view
We had a relaxing 4-day weekend during a major rainstorm and enjoyed the hot tub and fireplace. Enjoyed the view upstairs and the bedrooms downstairs. Comfortable beds and bedding. Only one bathroom in the house. Walkable to a lovely beach. positives: -enclosed, private back yard with clean, nice hot tub -pet friendly (though gap under fence meant my dog could easily escape) -cozy fireplace -open kitchen/living room w/ comfortable dining table negatives:- no kindling, had to buy our own fire starter and the bellows didn't work (we eventually found the firewood in the garage) -one roll of toilet paper was provided for a 4-night stay with two people, and when we called to report it, they told us to go buy our own -kitchen supplies were worn (tongs had rust, pans had burnt bits,) -needed a stronger sponge and a dish drainer -keypads were hard to find and no directions were provided about where to look (had to walk through backyard to get to door of the house) -the lights in the living room and kitchen were extremely low. the last day they mysteriously brightened up to a usable level- fuse problem maybe??
