(TOT #1422N) NO parties. Property is not licensed to host parties under Sonoma County laws. NO more than 6 people may occupy the house, day or night. PROPERTY DESCRIPTION: The Goat Rock House sits on a bluff along the Sonoma Coast and is uniquely located inside Goat Rock Beach Park, more than one mile west of Highway 1\. Our house is about 1 hour and 45-minute drive (73 miles) north of San Francisco and the Golden Gate Bridge; 4 miles south of Jenner; 10 miles north of Bodega Bay; and only 5 minutes south of the Russian River Bridge. As you drive down the winding road and rock formations towards the sandy beaches of the Pacific Ocean, near the mouth of the Russian River, you know that you have arrived at a special place. Our house is one of a small handful of homes that are grandfathered in the State Park and blessed by the park’s sweeping panorama of the Pacific Ocean and status as a natural reserve. The 3-bedroom house fronts a small road on a spectacular 1-acre oceanfront lot. As you enter the driveway, you will be struck by the sense of privacy offered by the Cypress and Pine trees that border the land. From the living room and kitchen windows, enjoy an exclusive front-row seat and a 180-degree view of the Pacific Ocean and Arch Rock – the dramatic rock formation that photographers frequently use to typify the natural beauty of the Sonoma Coast. As you turn to the southern, western, and northern windows, you will be mesmerized by the park’s beauty, its peacefulness, and the signature of Goat Rock that endears visitors year-round, the incredible panoramic views of the Pacific coastline. With the Pacific Ocean and the Russian River at its base, this house and its surroundings have something for everyone. Relish a cup of coffee or glass of wine on the deck, enjoy the tranquility offered by the ocean's panorama or revel in the activities offered by the park’s rugged trails, beaches, and river terrains. The house is within walking distance to two beaches directly below: (1) Blind Beach where the Kortum Trail begins and (2) Goat Rock Beach as defined by the isthmus and the mouth of the Russian River. We are less than an hour's drive to the award-winning Pinot Noir vineyards of the Russian River backcountry, the new appellation of Fort Ross, and the town of Healdsburg. Whether you choose to do a little or a lot, you will find yourself coming back to Goat Rock. AMENITIES This 1,000 square feet home has an open floor plan for the kitchen, dining, and living room areas. The house can accommodate up to 6 people comfortably. State-certified well water (very drinkable) is trucked to the house for storage and use. All rooms are situated on a single level. There is a wrap-around deck that surrounds all four sides of the house with a nice short ramp provided for those guests who are walking-challenged or wheelchair-reliant. The house has tile flooring throughout and furnished with craftsman-style décor with a blend of modern. The kitchen is fully equipped, with commercial appliances and a gas stove. New counter-height dining table and waterfall seats are ideally set up for staring at the ocean. The beds and pillows are covered by quality linens and allergen-proof liners. Gas BBQ and bar-height tables on the deck. 2-loads of firewood for use in the large, brick fireplace for times when the coast is foggy, cold, and windy. Electronics: Free wireless internet, HD-TV with sound bar, DVD/CD/ blue-ray player, and iPod docking station. Free phone calls within the US by land line (except Alaska). Very limited cell coverage but wire-fi-enabled phone calls and texting work well. WILDLIFE AND ACTIVITIES (INSIDE PARK) The Goat Rock State Park is located more than a mile west of Highway 1, far from the glare of ambient lights, and separated from the small town of nearby Jenner by both the Russian River estuary and the Goat Hill peninsula. As a result, on a clear night, the house offers some of the darkest night skies and unbelievable opportunities for star gazing and night photography. Besides its two beaches, the Goat Rock State Park offers many miles of walking trails, including the Kortum Trail and the western section of the Pomo Canyon Trail. These trails lead you to ocean vistas, wind-swept grasslands, wildlife, and faunas. The unique rock formations along the Kortum Trail near the park’s entrance are used by rock climbers for a wide variety of climbing challenges. The Park has also earned the distinction as a wildlife refuge -- home to a variety of migrating birds and, between mid-February and August, a colony of quiet, state-protected harbor seals and their nurseries. During weekends, the small road in front of the house can be popular as visitors drive to the estuary. When the park closes at sunset, relish the privacy that only a state park preserve can provide. Turn off the lights, step onto the front deck and hear the roar of the ocean below. On a clear night, see the shimmers of a dark night sky stretch across the ocean’s horizon. ACTIVITIES OUTSIDE PARK Outside of the Park, you are a 5-mins drive from the Willow Pass Trail; 15-mins drive from the start of the Pomo Canyon Trail; 20-mins drive from the trails at Bodega Head and also, to the Bird Walk Trail in Bodega Bay; 35 mins from the start of the advanced bike ride up King Ridge Road, and 40-mins from the Armstrong Redwood State Natural Reserve in Guerneville. Enjoy bird-watching, canoeing, and fishing (upriver from Russian River Bridge). October begins the small Steelhead run; November begins the larger Steelhead run that would continue to April. Occasionally, some of our guests have spotted whales from our deck. Whale migration southward begins from mid-November through April. For the northern coast of California, expect unpredictable weather during certain times of the year (especially spring and summer), when the coast can have a 30F degree drop in temperature within a day. On days like this, we recommend that guests explore inland, where temperatures can be 10 to 15F degrees warmer. The house is about 30-mins drive from zipline activities in a redwood valley of Forestville, delightful general stores of Valley Ford and Duncans Mills, a gourmet deli in the Korbel Champagne House, famous loaves of bread from Wild Flour Bread in Freestone, and many fine restaurants in Jenner, Bodega Bay (1-Michelin star), and Guerneville. About 30 mins drive lies the start of several award-winning Pinot Noir vineyards along River Road and Sonoma’s back roads. Add another 15 mins and you reach the lovely town of Healdsburg, from which to explore Alexander Valley. Sonoma County was named among the top 20 travel destinations in the world by Forbes and Frommer's for 2020. ## Property amenities ### Beach - On the beach - Beach loungers - Beach towels ### Internet -

The kitchen was well stocked, better than any others we have rented (including some yummy goodies). The beds were comfortable and had very nice bedding. Megan called the night we got there to be sure everything was good or if we had any questions. She sent us emails with lots of suggestons on where to go and where to have meals. We have never received such thorough information from an owner before. It truly made our trip special and fun. ##### Cheri D.

Dave and Megan have a well supplied kitchen, comfortable beds, and little touches here and there that make for a wonderful stay. And the location is simply spectacular. A great launching spot for a variety of activities and perfect for just hanging out and watching the ocean. We had great time and hope to return. ##### Cynthia S.

The pictures don't due it justice. House was clean and well taken care of. Wifi is spotty but we wamted to send pictures otherwise we wwre off our phones. It feels like this particular location is untouched even though with the beach access down below the house was quite busy with it being a holiday week. We're definitely going back!

It was a perfect getaway for our family. The views are stunning both day and night, and when it was rainy or foggy, we just cozied up next to a warm fire. Although it can be chilly this time of year, it wasn’t too cold to go exploring. The trails were open and we were able to see so much with just a pair of binoculars….birds, boats, harbor seals, rock formations, etc. The house was comfortable for the six of us, very clean, and well stocked. The owners are so nice and provided a lot of good information about the park and surrounding area. We would love to stay here again! ##### Katherine B.

The place is magnificent situated perfectly nestled in the wide open park overlooking the ocean and felt very private. We enjoyed sitting on the deck watching the sunset and the ocean waves. We enjoyed walks along the beach and in the hiking trails. Perfect place for relaxation. Great restaurant places are a very short drive away and they had seemingly every amenity available in the kitchen for our stay to be comfortable. Dave and Megan were very helpful if we needed anything and were very gracious and kind. We will absolutely love to stay here again. Thank you so much!! ##### Katherine C.

The house was spik and span, exactly as described and very comfortable. The hosts provided restaurant and activity suggestions as well as all the diretions we needed. The weather was extremely windy and cold so we didn't get to try the outdoor dining table or the firepit but look forward to trying them next time. We will be back. ##### Sharon M.

Last year we were all at the beach for a memorial service for my uncle and when we drove by the property we thought it would be such a great place to stay! Lucky we found the home on VRBO and the rest was history. Megan was easy to communicate with and the house supplies all you need, including the most beautiful view of the ocean. So relaxing and comfortable. We cooked and BBQ’d and spent great quality time together. Thank you again for such a wonderful stay! We will return! ##### Marna H.

The place was fantastic, offering an incredible view that took my breath away every morning. The sound of the waves and the stunning sunsets were truly mesmerizing. The property itself was well-maintained, clean, and equipped with all the amenities needed for a comfortable stay. What made the experience even more memorable was the exceptional hospitality of the owners. They were incredibly helpful, providing great local tips and ensuring that our stay was as enjoyable as possible. If you're looking for a peaceful getaway with a view that will leave you in awe, this vacation rental is the perfect choice. Highly recommended! ##### Kellie C.

The park feels like your own private playground. I thoroughly enjoyed the home and all of its amenities. The hosts, Dave and Meg, really go out of their way to ensure you are comfy. The kitchen is stocked full of the quality items you’d have at home. I’m so tired of renting homes full of thrift store junk of questionable history. This place felt like we were staying at a friends home. Just amazing. Check the 3rd bedroom for the games closet. We really loved the jigsaw puzzles as a group. ##### Monica Z.

Even when cars are going by, one doesn't hear or notice them. Wonderful wood burning fireplace. Extremely comfortable. Panoramic ocean views on the west and south, woods on the north and east. Extraordinary sunsets. Cool if its hot inland, great access to nearby restaurants and shops, but feels utterly rural/seaside. Very comfortable great room living area, overlooking Goat and Arch Rock. Excellent barbecue. Hosts are great communicators, and have organized all the info anyone could need in a convenient notebook. We'll be back! ##### David W. Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2023 ---
