Sea Ranch is California at its rural best

This rugged coastline is California at its very best. When you stay at a Sea Ranch vacation rental, you'll have a remote and windswept land that lends itself perfectly to hiking. This is a place to leave your daily worries and responsibilities back home, along with your cellphone, and immerse yourself in rural life. Whether you're kicking back on the beach, keeping your eyes peeled for migrating whales around the bay, or swinging your clubs on the 18-hole course, you can close off the day with a lip-smackingly good seafood feast in one of the local restaurants before returning to your private rental.
