PROPERTY AMENITIES

-- 2 bedrooms, 3 bath

-- Private hot tub

-- Wood-burning fireplace



Guest Access:

From the kitchen to the deck, everything in this home is at your disposal. The private hot tub is available around the clock -- no reservation needed. Driveway parking is available at the property. Detailed check-in instructions, including the door code, will be provided prior to your arrival.



The Neighborhood:

Nestled where the Gualala River meets the Pacific, this small coastal town offers local dining, art galleries, and easy access to Gualala Point Regional Park. Kayak the river, explore tide pools, or hike the coastal bluffs -- all within minutes.



Getting Around:

Gualala is approximately 2.5 hours north of San Francisco via Highway 101 to Highway 1, right on the Mendocino-Sonoma County border. Charles M. Schulz-Sonoma County Airport (STS) in Santa Rosa is the nearest airport at roughly 90 minutes east. A car is recommended -- Highway 1 is one of the world's great coastal drives.



Other Things to Note:

Seasonal ants: This neighborhood sometimes sees ants during certain times of year. We monitor the home regularly and treat proactively when needed. If you notice any activity during your stay, please message us so we can address it quickly—thank you.



Whale watching season runs from December through April -- grab the binoculars and watch for gray whale spouts from your window. Spring wildflowers (April-June) blanket the coastal headlands and the banks of the Gualala River with vibrant color. Summer on the Mendonoma Coast (June-September) means warm days and the occasional morning fog that burns off by lunch.



Cell service can be spotty along the coast. The home has WiFi for staying connected.

Gorgeous views and lovely living room. HOWEVER, the two en suite bathrooms are in terrible condition. Missing/broken drawers, cabinet door; peeling liner in tub, broken hand held shower holder in master bath, and there’s a major gash in the refrigerator door panel. The house was clean, but there are so many deferred maintenance and repair items, that it should not be rented again until everything has been fixed. For such a beautiful property, it is a travesty to let it sit in disrepair as it is now. So sad.

We had a wonderful time staying at the Cliff House. The views are amazing from the deck. The hot tub was comfortable and soothing after a few hours of warming it up to optimal temperature from a starting temperature of 76. The King bed in main bedroom is comfortable, and that bathroom is large and convenient. We appreciated the reasonably priced option on our stay for late checkout at 2pm as well. Would definitely stay again in the future.

The views are spectacular, and the privacy of the home made for a very relaxing stay. We had an issue on check-in day when we didnt realized there was no hot water until 8 in the evening. But the Maintenance man, who was very kind,came out right away to resolve this and it did not put a damper on our stay. I would definitely recommend to anyone, and would even love to stay again one day.

Great location. Nice home but...The landscape itself needs some attention overgrown, walkways overgrown. The home can use some attention as well. Alot of mold in the bathroom adjacent to the King room, drawer missing, door missing. Hot tub could use safety railing, all sliders need cleaned much debris in tracks. Ants seem to be making their way in through the dishwasher.

This place is really a great location. Ocean views, great weather and good layout of the home. However, so much maintenance needs to be done on this place. The barbecue was so rested it took us a long time to clean it, we received a call that there was no Heating but a nice fireplace and space heaters. No kindling for the fireplace and we burned everything paper and was still unable to get it going. We still had a good time to spite it all. So many burned out bulbs and the kitchen definitely needs more supplies, such as foil, plastic bags or Saran Wrap at the least. Anyway we still had fun despite it all.

The place was great with views of the ocean from every room of this oceanfront property.There is an Ant problem in the kitchen area that should be addressed. The second bedroom bathroom needs to be upgraded as it’s showing its age especially the tub.

The views were as advertised. Spectacular. The Jacuzzi was in fine working order. Bathrooms were clean. The biggest negative was the second bedroom bed was not suitable for 2 people as the mattress was too soft and caved into the middle when 2 people tried to sleep. It was only usable for 1 person, the the other person had to use the couch. Jody from the management company was very responsive to our request to bring a starter for the stove and bbq.
