The stay
Wake to ocean views and the call of seabirds in this light-filled coastal home. Step outside to a deck overlooking the ocean. Room for 6 in this 2-bedroom home. Walk to St. Orres restaurant. All other dining, river access, and Gualala Point Regional Park are a short drive away. Small-town pace, big coastal beauty -- that's Gualala. Pelicans glide past the windows, and on clear days the horizon feels infinite. Summer fog burns off by midday, leaving warm afternoons perfect for trail hikes and tidepooling.

It's all in the details at this striking craftsman home here in the landscape of Gualala! Boasting unmatched exposed beam ceilings, partial ocean views from the spacious deck, and a lofted layout that will give everyone their own piece of paradise, there will be no need to leave this oasis. Start mornings out slow with a warm cup of coffee in the ocean breeze and let the chef of the group whip up a tasty breakfast for the whole gang in the perfectly equipped kitchen boasting a gas range and all of the appliances of home.

Verified reviews from guests who stayed in this home.
“Great property, and I'm providing 5 start - BUT ... the listing is inaccurate.

Also the primary suite has no closed door. It is actually a loft, and is open to the main living area. It is not sound-proof. It is…”
“House was super cool. Spacious and remote location. Friendly visitors from raccoons to deer made it extra fun.”
“From the beautiful garden to the amazing kitchen to the wonderful back porch where you can sit and listen to the ocean it was a wonderful stay! We'd love to come back!”
