Stayed 2 nights in May 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Timon S. 30 Sept 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Place is great - but description was inaccurate. The 'loft' is actually a separate mini cottage down the hill with a futon and a tiny half bath separate from the main property. This confused us checking in, but luckily worked for our particular needs. Also - the primary bedroom and bath are actually a loft. There is visual privacy, but no sound privacy. You can hear everything in the kitchen and living areas up in the primary space. Even the primary bathroom has open walls out to the shared space.This place is really well suited for a couple. Not the best arrangement for larger groups given the lack of sound privacy. ##### Timon S.

We have rented many vacation properties over the years, but this one will always stand out for us. The location is ideal as it is close to many beautiful beaches and an easy drive to Gualala to pick up groceries or adult beverages. The outside of the property is incredibly serene, with beautiful decks, gardens, local stones, and a gorgeous view of the Pacific. A perfect place to relax with a glass of wine and enjoy the views. The inside is very tastefully decorated, well-maintained, and abundant with useful tools needed for a comfortable stay, including quality pots, pans, and eating utensils (This is quite rare with rentals, trust me). Needless to say, our family of four (me, my wife, 13 y/o daughter, and 7 y/o son) will be back to stay as soon as possible. Thanks to the owners for sharing your home for others to enjoy! ##### Anthony F. Stayed 5 nights in Jul 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Charlene H. 9 Jan 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful house & property This is a beautiful property. My only criticism is some cleaning issues in the kitchen. Someone had previously left something in the garbage area (in an enclosed little closet) that had a super bad odor. The cleaning crew did not take care of that issue. Other minor cleaning issues in the kitchen, but overall everything else was clean. The climb to the property is a challenge for us older, out of shape (lol)renters. The grounds are beautiful. The house is one of the best we’ve rented in the Sea Ranch/Gualala area. We & my parents have rented many over the last 25+ years of family gatherings. Highly recommend for comfort & price. ##### Charlene H.

It seems they have put a lot of work into the walkway recently leading up to the house making it easy to get in/out. The only thing we wished were different were the beds. They were extremely soft. For people with back problems it is not ideal. But, we know a ton of people love super soft mattresses so it wouldn’t be a problem for most. We would definitely stay here again! ##### Kevin O.

The beach view is very close but it is not a walkable distance to the beach, only to the view of the beach, to get to the actual beach you have to go into Gualala a few minutes away via car and park and then take the trail to the beach. Be aware everything closes 8-9pm including the grocery stores. we did not know and we made it just in time to get some provisions before closing time. The restaurants do not deliver so you must either eat there or do takeout. We liked the hosts binder with suggestions of places and restaurants. We did have a small cleaning issue, which Vacasa promptly responded to. ##### Karla O. ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Shoreline Cottages](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Fort-Bragg-Hotels-Shoreline-Cottages.h7859071.Hotel-Information) > > [The Inn at Mattei's Tavern, Auberge Collection](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Los-Olivos-Hotels-The-Inn-At-Matteis-Tavern.h69938507.Hotel-Information) > > [TETRA Hotel, Autograph Collection](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sunnyvale-Hotels-TETRA-Hotel.h59450839.Hotel-Information) > > [Sea Mountain Inn Nude Resort and Spa - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Sea-Mountain-Inn-Nude-Resort-Adults-Only.h27490625.Hotel-Information) > > [Multi-Family A-Frame Cabin: 9 Beds + Lake Access + AC](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Lake-Arrowhead-Hotels-Summer-A-Frame-Cabin-Lake-Access-AC.h79186206.Hotel-Information) > > [The Sandman Santa Rosa Sonoma, an Ascend Collection Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Santa-Rosa-Hotels-The-Sandman.h919721.Hotel-Information) > > [Sacred Sands](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Joshua-Tree-Hotels-Sacred-Sands.h39764924.Hotel-Information) > > [HYATT house Pleasant Hill](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Concord-Hotels-HYATT-House-Pleasant-Hill.h890952.Hotel-Information) > > [Romantic Couples Cabin near Park Gate Entrance to Sequoia Nat'l Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Fresno-Hotels-Romantic-Couples-Cabin-Near-Park-Gate-Entrance-To-Sequoia-Natl-Park.h33495653.Hotel-Information) > > [Hampton Inn & Suites Barstow](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Victorville-Hotels-Hampton-Inn-Suites-Barstow.h1677525.Hotel-Information) > > [Two Bunch Palms Spa Resort - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Two-Bunch-Palms-Spa-Resort-Adults-Only.h1338988.Hotel-Information) > > [Omni Rancho Las Palmas Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Omni-Rancho-Las-Palmas-Resort-Spa.h1703.Hotel-Information) > > [Hope Haven, Christian Setting, Sleeps 76\. 20Baths, Ideal for Groups & Churches](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Perris-Hotels-Hope-Haven.h57237475.Hotel-Information) > > [Spyglass Inn](https://www.expedia.co.uk/San-Luis-Obispo-Hotels-Spyglass-Inn.h41235.Hotel-Information) > > [Carmel Mission Inn](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Monterey-Hotels-Carmel-Mission-Inn.h21218.Hotel-Information) > > [Pea Soup Andersen's Inn](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Santa-Barbara-Hotels-Pea-Soup-Andersens-Inn.h19331.Hotel-Information) > > [Hill House Inn](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Mendocino-Hotels-Hill-House-Inn.h181081.Hotel-Information) > > [DoubleTree by Hilton Buena Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Buena-Park-Hotels-DoubleTree-By-Hilton-Buena-Park.h12753.Hotel-Information) > > [Carmel Valley Ranch, in The Unbound Collection by Hyatt](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Monterey-Hotels-Carmel-Valley-Ranch.h423710.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Vacation Club Lake Tahoe Resort South](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Lake-Tahoe-Hotels-Lake-Tahoe-Vacation-Resort-By-Diamond-Resorts.h64098.Hotel-Information) > > [Cottage Inn By The Sea](https://www.expedia.co.uk/San-Luis-Obispo-Hotels-Cottage-Inn-By-The-Sea.h150921.Hotel-Information) > > [Melody Ranch Motel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/San-Luis-Obispo-Hotels-Melody-Ranch-Motel.h10080334.Hotel-Information) > > [Quiet Mind Mountain Lodge, Retreat and Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Julian-Hotels-Quiet-Mind-Mountain-Lodge-Retreat.h48225149.Hotel-Information) > > [Baymont by Wyndham Fort Bragg](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Fort-Bragg-Hotels-Baymont-By-Wyndham-Fort-Bragg-At-Oceanview.h3100252.Hotel-Information) > > [Agua Caliente Casino Rancho Mirage](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Agua-Caliente-Resort-Casino-Spa-Rancho-Mirage.h2020169.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express & Suites Brentwood by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Brentwood-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Suites-Brentwood.h15581580.Hotel-Information) > > [La Quinta Resort & Club, Curio Collection by Hilton](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Palm-Springs-Hotels-La-Quinta-Resort-Club.h10916.Hotel-Information) > > [JW Marriott Desert Springs Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Palm-Springs-Hotels-JW-Marriott-Desert-Springs-Resort-Spa.h17123.Hotel-Information) > > [SeaCrest OceanFront Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/San-Luis-Obispo-Hotels-SeaCrest-OceanFront-Hotel.h1365352.Hotel-Information) ---
