Peaceful and comfortable stay

Wild Meadow is very comfortable with all the amenities you would need in a small space (mini fridge, microwave, and electric kettle). The view was gorgeous. Everything was very clean and neat. We had a wonderful stay!

A four star stay!!!

We were close to so many spectacular views and opportunities, and we took advantage of as many as we could in our time constraints. The coastal views, the architecture, The food and staff at the lodge, The hikes, ALL well above our expectations. We also met the owner by chance and she was a sweetheart.

Room with a view

The view of the ocean was lovely. We couldn’t see the beach but the whitecaps were visible and the breeze was just right. Perfect location to view the night sky over the ocean.

Great Getaway!

A perfect place to getaway from the hectic nature of life. Well appointed, has what you really need in a studio - comfortable bed, reading spot, tea spot -- and an amazing and stunning view. Close to tons of trails and ocean. I could not could have asked for a more perfect place to stay.

Sea Ranch Tranquility

Room was very clean, bed was comfortable and there was plenty of natural light and operable windows. The location was excellent as walking paths were very close by. Owner was at the property and very friendly. Highly recommended if you don't need a kitchen.

A wonderful regenerative weekend

We absolutely loved our stay at Wild Meadow. The home is in a tranquil setting just a short walk from oceanfront trails. The bed was super comfy and sleeping was peaceful with the faint sound of the waves as our only companion. The town of Gualala is a short distance north where we highly recommend Trink’s Cafe and Surf Market. We can’t wait to visit again soon.

Small and Cozy!

The one room "house" had everything I needed. It was a short 8 min. walk away from the bluff trail that goes for miles along the coast. Several lovely beaches 15 min. walk away.

Really Nice Cabin in Great Kocation

Classy Sea Ranch architecture, not a big space, but well thought out in the layout of the main room.Bathroom looks fairly modern.Interesting plywood paneling interior walls.The best part was the large west facing windows, through which you could watch the sun setting over the Pacific.

Wonderful retreat!

Beautiful ocean view, right in the heart of Sea Ranch. Loved our stay. The place is as described, no kitchen but that didn't bother us. We planned ahead and brought other food. Plenty of other amenities to make the stay enjoyable. Newly renovated or built room with so many thoughtful details.
