About this property

Oceanfront Bluff Home - Whale Watching, Redwoods, Wood Stove & Pet Friendly

  • Welcome to Sunset Sanctuary — a coastal retreat designed to calm the mind and recharge the spirit. Perched above the Pacific on the Crescent City bluffs, this is a place where the ocean is never out of sight or earshot.

    Light a fire in the wood stove, pour something warm, and watch the sun melt into the sea from the deck. Gray Whales migrate past seasonally, and Pilot Whales cruise these waters year-round — keep your eyes on the horizon.

    Beach access is just a block away, where a short walk leads down to Preston Island — a dramatic rocky shoreline with sandy stretches perfect for a stroll with your pet (who we’re always happy to welcome). For swimming and surfing, Crescent Beach is a easy 5-minute drive.

    The old-growth redwoods of Jedediah Smith are 30 minutes inland. The harbor, restaurants, coffee, and everything else you’ll need are within 10 minutes. And when the day is done, the wood stove, the sound of the waves, and a sky full of stars will be waiting for you.

    One more thing — you’ll notice a vintage Airstream parked on the property. She’s stationary and being lovingly restored as an optional guest add-on launching Autumn 2026. Something special is coming.

Pefect beach home close to Redwoods

Our group of 11 had a wonderful stay. The veiw from the home is impressive to say the least. Short little walk dow to the beach to explore. Close to restaurants and the Redwoods. We would highly recommend staying to anyone. The host was very responsive and helpful. I hope we get to stay again someday.

Redwoods trip

This house was really cute & the covered outdoor deck was fabulous. The host sent a lot of information about the area and was very available during our visit. We only stayed 2 nights but wish we could have stayed longer. The personal attention and small touches makes this house a gem.

The patio is so private and relaxing. We wondered about only bathrooms and it was never an issue! We spent more time in this rental than out and about because it was so beautiful and the view from morning fog to evening sunset and midnight moon never disappointed!!

Little piece of oceanic heaven

Property is super easy to get to. Checking in and out is seamless and Shawn is super helpful to ensure it goes as such, too. Kitchen is well stocked. With everything the icing on the cake is the back patio. The views, the sounds, the peaceful nature of the ocean are amazing! Thank you Shawn for being an awesome host. A favorite for sure!

Amazing view

We stayed in this beautiful house with our small dog and practically lived on the covered back porch. It was spring so not too warm yet but the porch is so protected we were just fine spending time out there. In fact we ate out there every night. The pictures don't lie - the view is incredible and the house is very cute and well set-up. The owner checked in with us a few times but the house had everything we needed and we'd love to come back!

Great views, excellent location, and comfortable place.

Sunset Sanctuary is exactly as described. My wife and I spent 3 weeks there in Feb. '24. Loved watching the changing seas, whale watching from the deck or living room, and hiking in the Redwoods nearly every day. The location couldn't be better. Shawn was a great communicator and worked with me to accommodate a late change in booking dates due to a family emergency. Crescent City is one of our favorite locations and this was a perfect place to enjoy it. I hope to return again.

Lovely, comfortable home on the ocean

We (2 couples and one child) had a wonderful stay at Sunset Sanctuary! The home was clean and bright with amazing views from the living room and upper bedrooms. It was well furnished and comfortable. The porch was a perfect spot to rest and spot whales out of the wind. The wood stove kept it very cozy. The kitchen was clean and had everything we needed. We have stayed at several ocean front rentals in Crescent City over the years and are most likely to re-book this one with a group.
