Driveway parking is available at the property. Detailed check-in instructions, including the door code, will be provided prior to your arrival.

Things to know
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.

“Had a marvelous time in a great house situated in a wonderful environment. Looking forward to next time!”
“As the architect for the house I am, of course a bit prejudiced, but of all the houses I have ever designed this one is right at the top of the list as a favorite. The house, now 50 years old, has stood the test of time.”
