About this property

ARCHITECT-DESIGNED VIEW HOME AT THE SEA RANCH

Privacy, privacy, privacy! The Rookery, a beautifully appointed home designed by well-known architect Edgar Allan Steinau at the world-renowned Sea Ranch, sits at the end of a cul-de-sac. Occupying nearly an acre of forested land with its own private creek, the house looks out over the ocean, with blue and white water views. Inside, you will find gorgeous wood interiors, a rock-faced fireplace, and beamed ceilings. A generous galley kitchen with arched brick cooking center, dining room, living room, and master bedroom suite fill the first floor, providing easy access for those with mobility issues. Upstairs you'll find a second bedroom, bathroom and office/den with a comfortable sleeper sofa bed. The house can sleep 6; in addition, a huge bonus room with a queen bed, sofa, standing gas fireplace, and a third bathroom, sits above the large 2-car garage (available for extra fees; please inquire). Outside is the place to be with two decks, a meditation garden, and a large hot tub. Enjoy dinner on the outdoor grill while you stare at the stars and listen to the wind in the conifers.

We are also doing our share to keep you safe during these challenging times. We have instituted Covid restrictions, requiring 48 hours between guests--24 hours to protect our housekeeper, and a further 24 to protect guests.

The Sea Ranch is a planned community with over 3000 acres featuring: The Historic Sea Ranch Chapel, The Sea Ranch lodge (restaurant and shopping), a 50-mile trail system with 6 public beach access points, 18-hole golf course (open to the public), dog park, bocce court, and 3 recreation centers with outdoor pools, locker rooms, half-basketball court, and tennis courts (amenities vary with each center) for guest use. Unfortunately, due to COVID, the rec center facilities are temporarily unavailable, but all outdoor activities remain to be enjoyed.

Fully away
I wanted a special trip with my 11 & 17 year old grandchildren, as the older one will soon be heading off to college. Our stay at The Rookery completely met this criteria. We had ample room to spread out, and to come together. We had views, trails, the hot tub, so even though it was during a big storm for most of our stay, we thoroughly enjoyed Mother Nature's show from our numerous windows and skylights. The host was super responsive and helpful. I heartily recommend this vacation home!!

a fantastic getaway!
we had a fantastic 2 night stay at this property! the home was cozy, the amenities were just what we needed, and we were less than 5 minutes from the lodge, beach, and rec centers. the only bummer was that the electricity was out for about 5 hours our first morning, which left us with cooking breakfast on the grill. separately the check-in process was a bit unclear, there were no clear instructions available through the posting or through any email, and it took some time to hear back from the owner. we ended up getting in because the side door was unlocked. overall a great weekend though

We used to go to Saulita, MX. Travel there has become difficult due to age and health issues. Wanted to try this out. First time in VRBO. Was a good experience.

Why they chose this property

If you truly want a break from the horrible challenges that have faced us all this year, you can find no better one than at the Rookery. Deer nibble on the lawn; three bird boxes offer homes to avian friends; a creek rushes near by; forest and ocean call you to explore. Complete privacy envelops you.

What makes this property unique

If you want to socialize, you have all the activities and benefits provided by the Sea Ranch Association--rec centers; restaurants; 3 pools; tennis courts; and miles of hiking on trails winding down to the ocean.
