Summary:

A lodge-feel family home with peaked ceilings, art-filled walls, and windows everywhere looking over swaying meadow grasses — watch for deer and foxes. Walk On Beach, Tide Pool Beach, and the playground are close by, and dogs are welcome. Sleeps 6 in 3 bedrooms near the Lodge's restaurant and the golf course.



The Space:

This Sea Ranch vacation home offers guests dog-friendly accommodations and is close to the beach and playground, making it an ideal getaway for a family with younger children. On-site, guests may enjoy a public golf course, a restaurant and gift shop in the Lodge, and access to numerous beaches. This rental, in fact, is just a short distance from Walk On Beach and Tide Pool Beach!



This 1,520 square-foot home is easy-going in its decor, with a classic lodge-feel, peaked ceilings, and plenty of nice art to admire. Windows are everywhere, maximizing the view of the surrounding swaying meadow grasses. You may even catch a glimpse of deer or foxes outside.



The living area is on the second floor so guests can fully enjoy the view and get the most light. Spread out over sofas and window seats while the stone-framed fireplace warms your toes.



Bring along your favorite recipes to recreate in this kitchen, with major appliances done in black and plenty of counter space. Pop in a favorite CD for some meal ambiance as you gather in the dining room with spots for six at the table. A dishwasher helps take care of the clean-up.



This three-bedroom home has two newly renovated bathrooms and comfortably sleeps six: a king bed, a queen bed, and two twins. Out back, relax in your private, fenced meditation garden — a quiet spot to unwind away from the main living spaces.



This is a great rental to enjoy as a family, since the One-Eyed Jack's Picnic Area and Playground is right across the street. Pack a picnic and watch your kids and family dog roll about in the grass (up to two dogs are welcome for an additional nightly fee).



The beach is just down the street for days spent admiring interesting rock formations and exploring tide pools. The Sea ranch Golf Links is a great place to spend the afternoon, with a Scottish links-style course and windswept landscaping. Dine at the Sea Ranch Lodge and buy a sweatshirt to bring home, or spend a day hiking the bluffs and searching for pods of whales or herds of harbor seals.

OUTDOOR LIVING

The deck gives you a front-row seat for Pacific sunsets and, in season, migrating gray whales. The gas grill turns clear evenings into barbecue nights.

Guest Access:

The entire home is yours to enjoy -- make yourself at home from the moment you arrive. This home welcomes 1 dog -- the yard and nearby trails are ready for your pup. Driveway parking is available at the property. 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.



The Neighborhood:

Stretching along ten miles of the Sonoma Coast, The Sea Ranch offers a rare blend of coastal wilderness and thoughtfully designed homes. Nearby highlights include Shell Beach tidepools (3-minute drive), community heated pool (North) (3-minute drive), The Sea Ranch Lodge restaurant, lounge and café (3-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 north) has grocery stores, restaurants, and a gas station. Jenner and Bodega Bay are scenic drives south.



Getting Around:

Situated in the heart of Sea Ranch, guests are about five miles from Gualala for grocery shopping, and about 55 miles from Mendocino. Charles M. Schulz-Sonoma County Airport (STS) in Santa Rosa is the nearest airport, about 1.5 hours east. A car is essential for exploring the area.



Other Things to Note:

Though a flatscreen cable TV with a DVD player, and WiFi are provided, this is also the perfect time to unplug with a good book, a good board game, or good conversation.



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.



You're welcome to bring one dog (up to 50 lbs.). Please keep your dog on a leash while using the trails and clean up after them.
