Wake up each morning to the soothing sound of ocean waves when you escape to this three-bedroom Sea Ranch home, a dog-friendly property with a private hot tub, an expansive ocean-facing deck, and a stunning waterfront location. Gorgeously situated to face the Pacific Ocean and the wondrous rugged cliffs of The Sea Ranch, this beautiful home is just steps from the Bluff Trail and one mile north of Black Point and the Sea Ranch Lodge. It's also only eight miles south of the Sea Ranch Golf Links, nine miles from the shops and restaurants of Gualala, and 28 miles from the Point Arena Lighthouse and Museum.

With paneled walls, hardwood floors, and soft leather furnishings, the living room is full of rustic atmosphere and plush comfort. Watch the morning fog blanket the ocean, or use the telescope to search for passing grey whales, harbor seals, and dolphins. The panoramic ocean views continue in the full kitchen, which features a large refrigerator, plentiful counterspace, and a dishwasher to take care of the clean-up. Sip your morning coffee by the window at the kitchen table, or share pancakes and bacon with your loved ones around the dining room table for six. But nowhere are the views more magnificent than on the large ocean-facing deck, where guests can relax in Adirondack chairs, use the gas grill to prepare al fresco meals, and soak their sore hiking legs in the luxurious private hot tub. Swimming pools and tennis courts are also available at the Sea Ranch Del Mar, Ohlson, and Moonraker Recreation Centers.

As one of the most understated and beautiful stretches of the Northern California Coast, Sea Ranch is a wonderful place to escape into nature. Walk among the local black-tailed deer as you hike the Bluff Trail, or play 18 scenic holes amid the cypress and pines at the Sea Ranch Golf Links. This home is also just 58 miles south of Mendocino - the perfect day trip for those in search of a majestic coastal drive along California Highway 1.

A few quirks but would stay here again
We spent a girls weekend at this property and overall had a really great time. We would come back for the view alone as we spent 90% of our time here on the deck. The check in process is cumbersome. We didn’t know till the day before we had to drive to the property management office to pick up a “welcome packet” which in reality was a parking pass you hang in your window. This seems like an unnecessary step for the renter to do. This “packet” could have easily been left at the property by the property manager when they come before we arrived to do things like turn on the hot tub. They also didn’t tell us we were able to check in early till 12pm, but we weren’t planning on leaving till 12 anyways because it’s a long drive. If we had known early we would have taken advantage of the extra time. But that’s minor. The property itself is nice, and very well stocked. My only complaint is the house definitely needs some updating. Paint is peeling, the flooring is missing around the second toilet, and there’s mold in random places (it’s right on the water so it’s constantly damp, so I’m sure mold is a constant issue). I also wish they would wash the windows that face the water before each stay. All of that being said, we had a great time. You absolutely cannot beat the view, and although the house needs some updating, it was comfortable and worked perfectly for our stay. We would stay here again!

Un acceptable amount of Mold and quality of property
I have stayed at VRBO’s multiple times and never have I experienced a property with mold or as run down as this property. This was one of the most expensive properties and VRBO should not have this as a recommended property. Also the owners should stop renting the property until they deal with the mold that was in multiple rooms. The BBQ was un functional as well. If it were not for the ocean front view this place would be considered a dump.

Beautiful location
This home is in a prime Sea Ranch location...right next to the bluff. Ocean sounds all day and night. The home itself is comfortable and adequate, although the decor is a bit tired. The main living area lighting isn't good enough for evening reading and required multiple individual lights be turned on, but in-bed reading was ok. There was a power outage and the provided lantern didn't work. Overall it's a solid B+.

Fabulous
You cannot get a better location than this place. Just heavenly. Walked a lot every day. This was a mellow-out trip and this house filled the bill to a tee. It's true as other reviewers have noted that the home needs some updating, but that didn't bother us at all. I gave management info on a couple of needed repairs, and they were very responsive in their response. Since we were on our way out, I can't judge how quickly the messages will be acted on. Sea Ranch is a mesmerizing experience. The walking trails are perfect with dramatic bluffs We stocked up in Gualala and didn't leave again until time to come home!.

Trying To Get Back To Normal
Trying to take a break from the rigidity of COVID-19 protocol, we planned a trip with some new scenery. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay by the ocean. Location was spectacular. House was dated but comfortable. Several kitchen pieces needed to be cleaned but other than that, premises was clean and taken care of. We had a great time.

Great Location, But…
Pros: Outstanding location on the bluff, above Black Point Beach. The house’s deck faces the bluff northwest, so summertime sunsets are perfect, unobstructed, and 90 degrees to your deck chair on the deck. You literally don’t need to move. Very pet-friendly. The meadow between the deck and the bluff is about 50 yards; long enough to throw the ball out for your dog. It’s a 5-10 minute walk south to the Stairs leading to the beach. House is set back off the roadway, and private. Hot tub worked great and we used it nearly every day, for a 10 night stay. Kitchen is relatively well-outfitted. Internet was fast and reliable. Cons: House was…very dirty. Cobwebs and insect cocoons in the bathroom. Two used Kleenex on the floor under the bed in the master. Window exteriors had not been cleaned in weeks, and the terrific views were obscured by a thick film (already mentioned by other reviewers). My wife cleaned the window exteriors on day 1 and they lasted a full week. The window in the master has still not been repaired (Seal is broken; cloudy throughout; See similar reviews from years ago) and no amount of cleaning will turn it back into a window. The garage looks like you could totally park your cars in there, if it wasn’t full of construction materials, old appliances and junk, so it’s totally out of play. A side storage area is currently used as a dumping ground for a rusty BBQ. The working, advertised BBQ is in such a sad, rusty state the igniters won’t light it. Tried to light it with matches or a lighter, but there are none inside the house with the fireplace, so to use the BBQ, we had to buy a lighter in town, 10 miles north. The house is very dated and probably still has the same original 1976 bathroom floor in the master bath. This property has so much potential. It is in a fantastic location, but it is a shame it has been neglected and under-maintained for what appears to be a very long time. We’ve stayed at about 8 different vacation houses in Sea Ranch, from kooky-kitschy to clean and modern. All were great experiences. This house was frankly the worst maintained and just kooky-dirty, and not in a family cabin kind of way. Used Kleenex on the floor tends to be a deal breaker…

Classic Sea Ranch - Rustic Sophistication With a Great View!
First the spectacular ocean view dazzles you so you don't notice anything else. Slowly the house reveals itself with sophisticated signed art pieces tucked around but in such an unpretentious casual way that you feel thoroughly at home with them. The rooms are bright and airy and the kitchen is very well-stocked with high quality batterie de cuisine. The hot tub is one of the most easy to operate ones we've ever seen and wonderful. Our family had a delightful stay and were sorry for it to end.

Great location and views from living room and master bedroom. Deck opens to the meadow with just enough separation to feel some privacy from the trail but connected enough to feel the meadow and bluff are your own. Hot tub is secluded, good for stargazing.
