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 itself house can sleep 6 (two full bedrooms and a den, which has a foldout sofa bed); 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 a reasonable extra fee; 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.

Clean place, and great views you can’t miss! The host is super friendly and the house is very cozy and comfortable for a fun weekend. Many scenic drives and trails nearby too!
Well located house with great views of the ocean. We really enjoyed the large deck with hot tub and the house is cozy and well appointed. We were disappointed that the sofa bed was not made up when we arrived and that we were expected to move around furniture and search through closets for bedding ourselves. I had been clear that we were a party of 5 and would be using the sofa bed but the house manager seemed a little dismissive of that when I reached out. However, Leila, the owner, was helpful and communicative and did send the housekeeping team to make the bed up after some back and forth, which we appreciated.

Wonderful stay in this beautiful home. Very clean and cozy, huge very private deck with large hot tub and grill, amazing views, we enjoyed the many deer, rabbits, and the rare wild turkeys walking by. It's a little up the hill (East of the road) so it has great views and sunsets. Great access to Sea Ranch amenities and bluff walks. Highly recommend!
We love the design and location of the property.The fireplace makes it so warm and cozy.We are older in years and we really enjoy the relaxing hot tup.The owner and property manager are nice people to deal with. Overall, our stay was delightful.
The checking and out process is easy, the location is incredible and the architecture, amenities and views are incredible. A very magical place. The owners are very welcoming.
We loved our stay in The Rookery. The views are breathtaking and the home was perfect for a mini-stay in Sea Ranch. We enjoyed a nightly soak in the hot tub and a daily walk through the gorgeous neighborhood and trails. Leila is communicative and very kind. We’d love to stay here again!
We stayed here for a friend's wedding and we absolutely loved our time in Sea Ranch and this lovely home. The house is cozy, comfortable, and had everything we needed for our brief visit. The views from every room are stunning and the house has a spacious deck with lovely views of the water. Lots of hummingbird activity, too! Thank you so much! We hope to be back again.
My wife and I loved our stay at this beautiful home in Sea Ranch. Very clean, lots of space, beautiful scenery. Leila was very gracious, and very communicative. Thanks for a great stay!
We celebrated our anniversary with a lovely family gathering at this beautiful location. The scenery was stunning, and the owner was very responsive and easy to communicate with. Highly recommend!
The property location is beautiful and has very nice outdoor deck with a wonderful view. It worked well for our family and vendors that was providing lodging for my daughter’s wedding in the area. The house is “lived in” but is well maintained. The owner was very responsive to me on a couple of issues and she was out of the country too which I found very responsive.

About the host
Hosted by Leila May
Leila May and Don Palmer, both native Californians, had been coming to Sea Ranch to visit friends for many years when they finally had the good fortune to fall in love with this amazing property and make it their own. They had already enjoyed interacting with guests over many years with a rental property that they have had in the Marais quarter of Paris.
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 and quiet 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.
