Great place to recharge the battery

Clean, well equipped, and comfortable. 8 of us stayed there and the youngest was 68. the stairs were a challenge, especially since we are all dealing with knee and hip issues.

Highly recommend

We highly recommend this beautiful place. We had 6 adults and 3 children there for a family birthday celebration. There was plenty of room for all and a very well stocked home. We enjoyed every minute of our time together!

Wonderful family home

My husband and I shared the house with my sister and bro-in-law. We thought at least some of our adult children would come, but due to a number of circumstances coming together, it was just us four. Each couple got an en suite Master bedroom with a king bed. We had 2 unoccupied rooms, one with a Queen bed and one with 2 twins, which would have been perfect for the kids that never came. 2 decks, one with a hot tub and one with an outdoor table and bbq , offered perfect spots tp contemplate the universe and all it’s stars. Late September is a perfect time to enjoy all the amenities of Sea Ranch, as the weather was perfect

Good location. Large house. Just missing ocean view

Overall house was good. Upgraded bathroom. Well stocked kitchen. Multi level house and large. Hot tub worked well. Walking distance to the beach but no real ocean views. The dishwasher had some issues when we stayed there. But the rest of the appliances worked fine. We did have an issue at check in and had to contact someone which was tricky because our cell service was spotty. Did take a little long to get our deposit back but we got the full amount back within about 2 weeks. Tv and internet worked well. Lots of space to sleep. The house was generally more updated than others we have stayed at and less dated. We would recommend and would stay here again.
