This house was perfect for a last minute get away and exceeded our expectations. The beds were super comfortable, nice furniture, well appointed and beautiful views! It was hard to tell from the pictures and description but the garage separates the main house and primary bedroom from the 2nd bedroom and hang out space/living room. This could be great for 2 couples who want privacy or a teenager who wants their own space. But if you were hoping to put younger kids in the 2nd bedroom, it might feel too far away. The configuration and pull out couches on both sides offered a lot of flexibility though. Would love to come back again!
The design of this home is classic Sea Ranch with great views toward the ocean. Although it is just above the road it sits high enough to avoid the noise and the road is screened by trees. The hot tub is very nice and the open deck with dining table would be great in good weather. ( we were there during a rain storm) The separate unit is lovely, with its own living room and bathroom. The kitchen is pretty well stocked and we cooked each night while we were there. It’s an easy drive up the hill to beautiful ridge hikes in the redwood forest. The access to Shell Beach is just across the road and is about a 10-15 min walk. The house is equidistant to both Gualala for shopping, and the Lodge for an afternoon coffee, cocktail or dinner. Would recommend this house and would rent again.
Clean, comfortable and well maintained.
This amazing retreat is a perfect getaway for 2 families or a family with teenagers who need their own space. There is a separate wing a bedroom, on suite bathroom and its' own entertainment space, so that a second group of people can have privacy from the main home. The beds were divinely comfortable, the reading nooks and fireplace were just what we needed to relax completely! And there is a trail accross the road to get to Pebble Beach!
The dark skies and bright stars were amazing. The Olsen recreation area with a pool was delightful. The coffee at the lodge was great. I loved the outdoor seating early morning just staring at the sea.
The house was well laid out, comfortable and cosy. The ocean views on one side and the mountain forest views on the other were spectacular. The house was well equipped. The second bedroom is in a seperate wing with it's own private sitting area downstairs. This was ideal for our adult son who came for a weekend visit. We especially appreciated and enjoyed the private hot tub on the deck for relaxation.
