Things to know
One family dog (50 lbs. max) are welcome here

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.
Whale watching season runs from December through April -- grab the binoculars and watch for gray whale spouts from your window. Spring (April-June) brings a wildflower show across the coastal meadows -- lupine, poppies, and iris paint the landscape. Summer (June-September) brings the warmest days and longest light. Morning fog is common along the coast -- it usually burns off by midday.

Spectacular Ocean Views in Affordable Lodging
This a lovely property with an amazing view! There was plenty of space for our family. The house was fully stocked with all we needed. We loved going hiking on the trails behind the property. The view of the ocean was spectacular! The property was convenient to the nearby town of Gualala {5 min],the nearby wedding venue of the Sea Ranch Lodge[15min], and lots of other sight seeing opportunities.
The pocket door in the master bed room was difficult to open and close, especially for someone with arthritis. Also, more information of how to use the hot tub would have been appreciated.

Great location on bluff, ocean views, kids loved hot tub (good to have extra towels), place was clean and neat (exception--1 bedroom window needed repair work)...easy 1+mile to Del Mar center pool, and to beaches, where we saw seals and even spotted playful whales in the distance. Enjoyed Gualala art center (and weekend faire). Regular communication, check in and out was easy.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re glad you enjoyed the location, views, and overall value of the home!
We did want to clarify that the fireplaces are not an offered or advertised amenity for this property, so they are not something guests should expect to be available during their stay.
Regarding the oven, we have had the door inspected, and no issues were found. The oven is functioning properly and heats as it should.
We appreciate you bringing your concerns to our attention and hope you had a wonderful stay!
