Great getaway with Grandkids
Perfect home for family. Relatively close to playground and ocean. Kids loved the seals and searching through the tide pools. House was great- just wish there was one more bathroom.
House was very nice with only a 15 minute walk to the beach, private with beautiful scenery. Would definitely recommend it.

Ocean Wonderland
Very comfortable, lovely home. Plenty of room for everyone & more. Kitchen had all items you might need to make meals. We spent 2 nights here & it was a beautiful property. Plenty of beds to accommodate many people, plus extra roll away beds if needed. Sea Ranch is a wonderful place to relax and enjoy the ocean and surrounding areas. You won’t be disappointed in this property.

A week-end at Sea Ranch
It was a great time to get away from the city. The weather was not great but not bad. We were still able to do our walks along the bluff. The grandkids enjoyed playing in the sand on the beach. The house was just enough for all of us, very comfortable, and have toys for the kids. If it was closer to the water it would have been perfect, but the walk to the beach is not at all bad. Close enough to the town of Gualala where we bought groceries. Overall, we were very pleased, and wished we had stayed longer.

We loved this house!
Five women stayed in this house for a long weekend. We very much enjoyed the internal space of this Sea Ranch home as well as the out the door trails to the sea. The kitchen was roomy, there is plenty of storage space, and the decor is ocean themed and not overdone. The house was very clean. There were flocks of birds visible each morning right out the kitchen and dining windows. We also saw a large flock of quail in the yard and several deer around the grounds. You can purchase all your groceries up the road in Gualala. If the trails and beaches on the Sea Ranch stretch aren't enough for you, Salt Point State Park is just down the road and the Gualala River State (?) Park is just north. Fantastic place, wish we could go there once a quarter!
Not recommended for older adults who need to rise in the night to use the restroom. The master is palatial, bedroom 2 is average-sized, and the loft rooms are tiny, not very private, and the bathroom- shared amongst all 3 of the smaller bedrooms- is a perilous trip down metal spiral stairs. The sink taps need repair or replacement, the fireplace isn’t working, the wooden lawn chairs featured as the cover of the listing were not in evidence, and it’s an 8-minute walk to the trail head leading down to the ocean which is another 8-10 minutes away.

Magical. Absolutely magical.
We stayed at eight other houses on our great California road trip up Highway 1 and none were as magical as this house. This house has a beautiful vibe. The natural light, the scenery outside, the privacy and quiet neightborhood, the endless gorgeous walking trails. We weren't sure about staying in such a remote area, but we are endlessly glad we did. We didn't want to leave! There were 6 of us, 3 adults and three teenagers, and we all thoroughly enjoyed the peace, the great family kitchen. Absolutely fabulous hosts in the office in Guallala, easy to talk to, and very helpful. Of all the places we stayed, we can't recommend this house enough. The only thing I'd change is the pillows and blankets - they smelled a bit musty through the sheets. The house was clean otherwise. Stunning place. We absolutely loved it.

Sea Ranch vacation house
Overall a good experience. The house is spacious and in good condition. Note that the two upstairs bedrooms are lofts without doors that close so not a lot of privacy. No beach towels but the kitchen had lots of equipment for cooking. There is a table and chairs on the front deck but no umbrella for shade. Check in involved going to the management company’s office in Gualala to pick up the key (and drop it off again at check-out) - seems very unnecessary as the key could have been left in the lockbox next to the front door.
Not related to the house, per se, but the restaurant options in Sea Ranch/Gualala are extremely limited and overall, not that great. The high point was Two Fish Bakery in Stewart’s Point - delicious bread, baked goods and sandwiches.

Disappointing
The property was dirty - dog hairs, mouse droppings, dead woodlice, even a piece of glass on the floor. Maybe we just got unlucky with the cleaners. Even aside from that the property felt in a poor state - stained carpets and strong sense of stale smoke in some of the bedrooms. One of the double mattresses was old and uncomfortable. Just needs updating and a deep clean

Great large house, great location
We had a great stay at this house. We were 5 adults, 4 kids plus an infant and it was very spacious and comfortable for us. The views and property are gorgeous, short walk to the beach. The check in/out process was easy. Everything was clean & comfortable and we loved the outdoor sitting spaces. Kitchen was stocked with everything we needed except a wine opener and a large stock pot (there was only a medium sized one) so you might want to pack those things. The house had fun toys & games for kids and was great for our crew but I would be nervous to take a toddler there as there are many breakable decorations down low and only glass cups & plates. The loft is divided into 2 separate rooms with doors so that was great for privacy but you will hear any noises in the house from those 2 rooms. The master room is very large & quiet and the other downstairs bedroom is also nice sized & quiet. You can hear the ocean if you open the windows. We had a great stay and we would definitely go back again (except for the long windy drive..)

The house was comfortable and in perfect condition. Everything was as described and pictured on the website. It's a very large house with comfortable communal spaces and dining seating for 8-10 people. The kitchen was well-equipped, and the house was very clean with a couple of minor exceptions. (The only sponge in the kitchen was mildewed and stinky, and the table hadn't been wiped clean.) Nice view of the field with ocean in the distance. Very private yard. Short walk to Shell Beach. Our only complaint concerns the management company. We had the wrong information in our packet (it was for another house), and the keys had to be picked up and returned to the management office in Gualala. From our house this entailed an extra 10 minute drive each way.
A very well equipped home: multiple types of coffee makers, crockpot, tons of glassware and dishes, even a couple sizes of wetsuits! Was surprised there were no beach chairs though—those would have been very nice to have. All the beds were very comfortable and the towels and linens were plentiful. The Sea Ranch community is beautiful and serene. Gorgeous coastal landscape with so much wildlife and the walking/hiking trails are everywhere. Easy access to the beach but if you’re going for a “beach day” you’ll need to drive if you have gear to carry. As a matter of fact, this was a very car-centric trip. Lots of driving to get to the community pool, get into the nearest town for groceries, etc. If you have room, try to get groceries in Santa Rosa, Petaluma (depending on where you’re coming from) because prices are understandably sky high in Gualala and if you can stock up before you arrive then less driving back and forth into town. The community pool/tennis courts were great! Never too crowded and the multiple saunas were a real treat.

Nice house, but has not been maintained
Our family stays in Sea Ranch at least once a year, usually in different houses. This was a late booking so there wasn’t that much available. It’s a nice house and interesting design inside.
The main problem was that the place hadn’t been well maintained, both short and long term. Some of the furniture was a bit smelly, as if it had been used heavily for 10+ years without being cleaned.
When we arrived two main lights in the living room were not working. One was out and one was blinking on and off every minute or so. I tried tightening them up, but no luck. The screen door outside fell off the rails when I opened it and I couldn’t get it back on.
We called the phone number and because it was Friday evening , there was no one available. I emailed for help and never got a reply to this day. The next day I went and bought some bulbs and fixed the lights. They worked fine with new bulbs. These were hanging lights so high up.
My whole extended family loves going to Sea Ranch. We still had a lovely time, but part of the fun is staying in really neat houses. This was a bit of a disappointment. It’s not the house, it’s the management company, which we will not be using again.

Beautiful location, house was fine but needed some attention.
House was fine and housed our family comfortably. Standard "rental" furniture which needs some upgrading as well as some of the rooms needed painting or sheet rock repairs. Heat in master bedroom did not work well. The master bedroom got uncomfortably hot in comparison to the rest of the house and could only be adjusted by opening and closing the windows. Also, the house is advertised on different social media sites as both accommodating 7 and 10 people-so which is it?
A perfect spot for a weekend getaway with friends.

Very beautiful and private property.
We were very comfortable here. We would definitely return. The fridge should probably be wiped out on the inside and there was one rag on the floor the housekeeper probably dropped while cleaning. No real complaints here.
