Wave Watch has long been a favorite of North Coast vacationers. The house has been closed for a year for updating and is back by popular demand! Wave Watch is a chic, well appointed home awaiting the work-a-day weary traveler. You can relax on the patio or stay warm inside and gaze out at the waves...let them lull you into the peaceful state you seek. The 2,400 square foot house is designed to capitalize on its' cliffside location, hanging over the beautiful Pacific. You will have a 180 degree view the majestic cliffs of the Mendocino Coast and the Point Arena Lighthouse - enjoy these views during your mealtimes and marvel at the sunset with a bottle of world renowned Northern California wine. The house has a feng shui flow that allows the chefs and the couch potatos to easily chat during the preparation of your vacation feasts. Enjoy the patio to grill fresh fish or steaks while scanning the horizon for the seasonal whale migration, or just glance down the cliffside meadow to peek at the herds of deer.
The house has two large Master suites,each with its' own full double bathroom. Each suite has a private patio, one adjacent to the hot tub. The two upstairs bedrooms contain a full bed and a set of twin beds, and share a full bathroom. A fully appointed kitchen and formal dining area provide you the comforts of home...if your home were in Paradise.
A gate access card will be provided upon your arrival, and it is a 2 minute drive to the gate, where you can drive down to the private Irish Beach. Enjoy a day of beachcombing, bird watching and build a driftwood bonfire to make your s'mores - a perfect ending to the perfect beach experience. If you are a runner, conquer the whole 12 miles of beach! If you get adventurous, you can drive 24 miles north to the village of Mendocino - with its' July Music Festival, amazing Headlands, boutiques and enticing restaurants. Bring your touring bikes and take the ultimate ride down to the Point Arena pier, or if you are really gung-ho, go all the way to Bodega Bay! For abalone divers, excellent diving areas are a short drive both north and south on Highway 1, and kayaking in the rock formations is exhilarating as you view the starfish, anemone, seals, sea lions, pelicans, and many other wildlife you'll encounter along the way.
