The Barn - Ocean-view retreat with two decks, dogs welcome

Breathe in the fresh ocean air at this three-bedroom Sea Ranch retreat—a charming escape with two decks, partial ocean views, and shared recreation amenities just a short walk away: outdoor pools, tennis courts, pickleball courts and saunas. Take a breathtaking walk on the oceanfront Bluff Trail with multiple access points just a short walking distance from the property, tee off at the Sea Ranch Golf Links one mile north, and pick up groceries and peruse the eclectic art galleries in downtown Gualala three miles north. While the exterior maintains that iconic Sea Ranch architecture, the interior is tastefully updated full of warm, natural woods, stainless steel appliances, and large windows that frame the ocean and meadows. Ease into the day with a soak in the standalone jetted tub room, bring your coffee outside to one of the furnished decks, watch birds and wildlife in the adjacent meadow and take sunset strolls to Walk On Beach before preparing dinner in the elegant open kitchen.

Welcome to The Sea Ranch -- ten miles of rugged Sonoma coastline where modern architecture and wild nature exist in harmony. 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). Between the coastal trails, tidepools, heated pools, and The Sea Ranch Lodge's restaurant, you could fill a week without leaving the community. For provisions, Gualala (10 minutes north) has grocery stores, restaurants, and a gas station. Jenner and Bodega Bay are scenic drives south.

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.

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.
