Summary:
Panoramic ocean views greet you from the moment you walk through the door. Your deck is a front-row seat to the Pacific. Room for 6 in this 3-bedroom home. Just a 12-minute walk to the heated community pool. Trails, tidepools, and two heated community pools -- all within reach. The rhythm of the waves sets the pace here -- unhurried mornings, lingering sunsets, deep sleep. Winter storms put on a show from the safety of the living room -- nature's own theater.

PROPERTY AMENITIES
Guest Access:
The entire home is yours to enjoy -- make yourself at home from the moment you arrive. Driveway parking is available at the property. Detailed check-in instructions, including the door code, will be provided prior to your arrival. As a guest, you also have access to Sea Ranch community amenities including the pools, tennis courts, fitness center, and miles of trails. A recreation pass will be provided.
The Neighborhood:
Shared pools and tennis courts at three rec centers provide more opportunities for fun, and golf is also available on-site at the Sea Ranch Golf Links. Gualala is a quick 10-minute drive south for groceries, dining, and fuel. For a scenic outing, Jenner and Bodega Bay are further down Highway 1.
Getting Around:
The drive from San Francisco is approximately 2.5 hours via Highway 101 to Highway 1. Fly into Charles M. Schulz-Sonoma County Airport (STS) in Santa Rosa, about 1.5 hours east, and rent a car. The Highway 1 drive along the coast is spectacular and worth building into your travel day.
Other Things to Note:
Full kitchen (with dishwasher and commercial Wolf range with extra-large oven)
Sea Ranch has three recreation centers with heated pools, saunas, and tennis courts. Access passes are provided with your stay -- check availability upon arrival as these shared amenities can be popular during peak times.
Exterior lighting is minimal by design to preserve the stunning dark sky -- bring a flashlight for evening walks and enjoy some of the best stargazing on the California coast.
Keep your eyes on the horizon from December to April -- gray whales migrate just offshore, and this property has a front-row seat. Visit in spring and the meadows explode with wildflowers. April through June is peak bloom season along the Sonoma Coast. The warmest months are June through September. Expect coastal fog most mornings that gives way to sunny afternoons.
Cell service can be spotty along the coast. The home has WiFi for staying connected.
