Tucked into a grove of towering redwoods on California's wild Sonoma Coast. Bring your pup -- dogs love the bluff trails here. Curl up by the fireplace after a day exploring coastal trails. Your deck opens onto a private pocket of coastal nature. Room for 3 in this 1-bedroom home. Just a 7-minute walk to the heated community pool. The scent of redwood and salt air mingles on the breeze -- you know you're on the Sonoma Coast.
The space
Hand-built by the owner himself in 2003, this home brings thoughtful design and natural surroundings to your next Sea Ranch escape. In this sunny clearing at the base of redwood-covered hills, you'll be less than a mile from the oceanfront Bluff Trail, the Sea Ranch Golf Links, and the outdoor pool, saunas, and tennis courts at the Del Mar Recreation Center.
Step inside to find a living space that's entirely on one level, with the common areas on one side of the house and the bedroom and bathroom on the other. Just in front of you as you enter are glass doors that lead outside to the deck - a private spot to bring your coffee each morning. Back inside, you'll find a light-filled great room that brings together the living room, the dining room, and the kitchen beneath lofty ceilings with exposed wood beams. A private washer/dryer is also on hand for your convenience.
SLEEPING ARRANGEMENTS
Retire to the bedroom and sink into the comfortable queen bed after a day of exploring. Additional sleeping includes 1 twin bed. Altogether, the home comfortably sleeps 3.

Neighborhood
The Sea Ranch is a one-of-a-kind coastal community on the Sonoma Coast, where miles of trails wind through meadows, forests, and along ocean bluffs. Nearby highlights include community heated pool (North) (7-minute walk), Shell Beach tidepools (7-minute drive), The Sea Ranch Lodge restaurant, lounge and café (7-minute drive). Between the coastal trails, tidepools, heated pools, and The Sea Ranch Lodge's restaurant, you could fill a week without leaving the community. For provisions, Gualala (10 minutes south) has grocery stores, restaurants, and a gas station. Jenner and Bodega Bay are scenic drives south.

Guest access
The entire home is yours to enjoy -- make yourself at home from the moment you arrive. Driveway parking is available at the property. This home welcomes 1 dog -- the yard and nearby trails are ready for your pup. Detailed check-in instructions, including the door code, will be provided prior to your arrival. As a guest, you also have access to Sea Ranch community amenities including the pools, tennis courts, fitness center, and miles of trails. A recreation pass will be provided.
Things to know
Enjoy stainless steel appliances in the open kitchen, a Netflix-equipped flatscreen TV in the living room, and two desk workspaces - one in the living room and one in the bedroom - in case you need to use the free WiFi to catch up on emails.
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.
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.

Response from Sea Ranch & Sonoma Vacation Homes

Dan, adequate tells us the stay landed somewhere in the middle, and that matters to us. A home on the Sonoma coast should feel like more than just a place to sleep through a trip. Thank you for staying, and for saying something, even briefly. We're genuinely sorry the House didn't give you more.

Great spot to hole up for a couple days and relax. I walked the bluff trails for hours each day, easily accessible just by walking out the door. It was also a 5 min drive to super delicious fish tacos, grocery store, and well-known lodge/restaurant. Clear, simple check in instructions. Clean. Definitely recommend.

My stay at Sea Ranch was lovely. So close to hiking the coast and the cute town of Gualala for any extra needs. I did not use the television or gas fireplace because I could not find specific instructions for either but perhaps I was not looking in the right place. All was good!

A great charmer
We loved the grand styling of this tiny home. It provided countless hours of enjoyment in this rugged section of
The N. Cal coastline of a N. Sonoma county.
We were very comfortable in the kitchen, bedroom was ample. Easy to access, yet wisely close to all local destinations.

Loon's Landing Easy Access
This was our 2nd time to stay at Loon's Landing and it is generally clean and convenient to Gualala and Point Arena being at the north end of Sea Ranch. There were some household issues that need to be addressed but easily fixable. Surroundings are pleasant with wildlife - deer, cute quail and other birds. Makes for an interesting walk in the mornings.
