  Thanks Peter and Casey for a great visit. Hate to beat a dead horse but the pictures really do not do justice to this beautiful home. Have looked at vacation homes along the coast from Dillon Beach to Mendocino and this beautifully appointed home provides the win-win-win of a luxury home very reasonably priced, in a funky little town. We were expecting a large number of guests but ended up with a small group yet the smart home layout works in both cases. Being responsible for tending the fires, having a huge supply of seasoned wood in the garage, makes a vacation so much easier. Also don't underestimate the importance of good water pressure in a beach vacation home and these showers were awesome.We plan on being back,so please keep this place a secret.. Thanks again Peter and Casey..

  We had a wonderful time in Gualala, thank you to our stay at this home. The owners were very pleasant, making payments easy, and giving us helpful information on beaches and restaurants. Four of us went for my mom's retirement get-a-way, and she was truly blown away! The house is right on the waters edge, and we enjoyed the amazing views from the large living room window, and two outside decks. My moms favorite part of the house was the comfy window seat that overlooked the ocean. The house is also just 3 minutes driving distance from the quaint downtown where there are multiple supermarkets and a few restaurants... Over our 2 night stay, there were a few issues, but none of them had an effect on our overall stay. The wireless internet did not work although our phone and computer said it was connected, as well as poor fuzzy TV reception on all TVs. Our last issue was that the 2 propane tanks for the BBQ were empty, and the local store closed at 5pm, so we could not BBQ as we initially planned. After our stay we discussed these issues with the property owners and they promised to look into these problems asap before future visitors. So if you need internet, or plan on BBQing- just double check with the owners, or make sure to fill the tank. The owners were very apologetic and kind, they responded very nicely. We loved our stay and hope to return again soon!

  We rentedwindswept three years in a row. Always enjoyed. Made a reservation and dep for this year may 2012 but had to cancel due to not being able to drive up to gualala. Was told there would be refund and that was great. todate no refund or response to correspondence. Asked what refund policy was when first rented windswept. Was told it would be looked into. Hopefully still waiting for a refund.

  We stayed at Windswept because our daughter was getting married nearby. The house provided a lovely setting for our family. The accomodations were lovely, the view spectacular. It was a pleasure to business with owners who were great to allow us to extend our stay. I would recommend this to anyone.

  This was our 3rd trip to this wonderful vacation home. The ocean view is spectacular and the sunset is wonderful. we saw a doe and her fawns nestled down in the bushes, below the frontroom window for two days and watched the doe come up the hill right by the dining room window to feed. The owners are very nice people to work with.

  We booked this property in February 2010 for a September 2010 stay. The owner was very helpful and easy to work with - we had to change our dates, and she accomodated us with no issues. Very easy process to secure your dates and to check in and out. Frankly, this was one of the easiest VRBO rentals I've dealt with, because I didn't have to coordinate with an owner for check in or check out, and she provided all the information needed upon her receipt of the deposit. The house is more lovely than photographed, if that's possible. It didn't disappoint any of us at all! If you are a confident driver, there are several options to getting to wineries in a reasonable amount of time, making this location more that suitable for both a coast break and winery tours. I think the only thing that could make it better is for departing guests to understand that a cleaning service does come in - to clean. They probably don't redo the dishes, or clean up grill disasters or fix non-working equipment - especially if they don't know about it. Do the next guest a favor and clean up after yourself (dishes/pots/pans) and treat all of the equipment with respect. This owner offers a great property at a great price - help her keep it that way! I don't think most would be disappointed at all in this property, and I've forwarded this property to the 4 people I know here in Ohio planning California coast vacations. Thank you again, to the owner, for her part in a great break from Ohio's heat and humidity.

  Fabulous!! Windswept was everything they said it was and more! The pics do not do it justice! Gualala was very small and quaint but fun! Had a great time walking to and from town. Owners were very sweet and helpful! When we got there plants out front and in sunroom were dying - we watered them lots, remember to do same. Have a great time!

  We had a girls getaway for 3 nights & this place was perfect! The view was out of this world... It was nice & clean & had tons of room! I can't wait to go back during whale season! For those who have never been - there is a perfect little beach cove called Cooks Beach. It's not far of a drive & you just walk down a little path & you are there! Thank you Peter & Casey for sharing your beautiful home with us!

  We have enjoyed windswept for two years. It is a home away from home. The views of the ocean are wonderful from the frontroom and the lower bedroom.. There is every accomodation available to you. The owners are great to work with. Their recommendations of restuarants is very good. We hope to go back to Windswept for another visit soon. Diane.Pleasant hill ca.
