Summary:
A short walk connects your front door to the bluff trail and the Pacific. Three bedrooms sleep up to 7 in this updated Sea Ranch home with two furnished decks, partial ocean views, a wood-burning stove, a jetted-tub room, and a ping pong game room — and your dog is welcome. The Del Mar Recreation Center's heated pool and courts are a one-minute walk.
The Space:
Breathe in the fresh ocean air at this three-bedroom Sea Ranch retreat — two furnished decks, partial ocean views, and the Del Mar Recreation Center's outdoor heated pool, tennis, pickleball, and saunas a one-minute walk away. Multiple Bluff Trail access points sit within a short walk of the property, the Sea Ranch Golf Links tee off one mile north, and downtown Gualala's groceries and galleries are three miles up the road.
While the exterior keeps that iconic Sea Ranch architecture, the interior is tastefully updated and full of warm natural woods, stainless steel appliances, and large windows framing ocean and meadow. Ease into the day with a soak in the standalone jetted-tub room, carry coffee to a furnished deck, watch birds and wildlife work the adjacent meadow, and take a sunset stroll to Walk On Beach before dinner in the elegant open kitchen. On foggy evenings, the wood-burning stove does what wood stoves do best.
Bring your pup along — this home welcomes 1 dog, and the bluff trails were made for morning walks together. A game room with a ping pong table settles any after-dinner debates, and bicycles are available for exploring the quiet Sea Ranch roads. From December through April, keep an eye on the horizon — gray whales migrate just offshore, and the decks make a fine viewing platform.

The Neighborhood:

Nearby highlights include community heated pool (North) (1-minute walk), Shell Beach tidepools (5-minute drive), The Sea Ranch Lodge restaurant, lounge and café (5-minute drive).

For provisions, Gualala (10 minutes north) has grocery stores, restaurants, and a gas station. Jenner and Bodega Bay are scenic drives south.
Getting Around:
This home sits on the west side of Highway 1, just around the corner from an outdoor heated pool, saunas, and two tennis courts at the Del Mar Recreation Center. 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:
You can even use the free WiFi as you relax by the fire.
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.
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.
