Rustic Sea Ranch home with incredible ocean view, shared pool, & dog-friendly!

My husband and I rented the Thayer house every few years for over 30 years. We always loved the view and walking near the ocean. We did not come every year but now that he is gone, my son and daughter-in-law have been with me for the last two years and we seem to be making it a once a year trip. The house has not really changed much in the last 30 years but it is still comfortable even if some might think it dated. We always have a really good time.

We were impressed with how well the house was stocked. Also loved the location. The view was outstanding and having a beach so close was wonderful. My only issue was the condition of the downstairs bedroom mattress. It was a little hard and uncomfortable. But overall our stay was fantastic.

This house was so comfortable and the westward view so exceptional at sunset, that this will be our favorite place to stay, hands down. It was perfect for our elder dog as she could safely walk about in the meadow in our view on the deck. It was clean and well stocked. We'll always return.

Thayer house is a charming cabin in Sea Ranch. It has a head on ocean view and we saw whales, deer, wild turkeys , quail, and a fox from the living room, to say nothing of the Milky Way on beautiful nights. We found the bed comfortable and the kitchen adequate. Bring your own spices! We stayed for a week and found it rustic and charming. It is not appropriate for small children (steep, open stairs). We appreciate that it is dog-friendly! We are already planning to return!

The location was absolutely perfect for us and the kids. We were so close to the beach, we'd go down, play, come back for lunch, then go back out. The house is open with an amazing view. Watching the sunset was like watching a movie. The kids loved exploring around the house.
