Hidden Gem! Great views, fireplace, stars & nature
Escape to this wonderful retreat with views of meadows, ocean & redwoods. Cozy stone-hearth fireplace provides an invitation for conversations deep into the night. Vintage daybed surrounded by the views provides a great place for reading & sipping tea. Big deck & sunroom. A cathedral ceiling & open floor plan gives a sense of space & relief, yet still provides visual privacy. Night sky is super dark, great for stars. Special “stargazing room” w/ large skylight. Horse experiences available. The space On many nights the sound of the ocean is a wonderful lullaby, complemented at times by distant frog song. The spring mornings are awash with birdsong. Watching the Wild Turkey or Mule Deer come out in the meadow is a sweet experience.
This has an open, studio floorplan, so none of the bedrooms close off with walls and door. Downstairs, in the room to the backside of the fireplace, is the king bed. There is an upstairs loft area with a queen bed, desk, chairs, and half bath. There is also another loft with single bed accessed by the captain's ladder, and the stargazing room beyond that. There are additional foldout beds that can be put on the floor and in the stargazing room to make it a king sized sleeping space. And there is a daybed overlooking the meadow, that can be a sleeping area. The captain's ladder and loft is not intended for children due to the nature of the ladder. The sofa can be slept on as well of course.
We offer "Mindscape exploration with horses" experiences here (airbnb . com experience # 3624145) and if it is booked for the time you want, just ask us with as much notice as possible to see if an appointment for you can be added to the schedule. Also, there is no cell coverage here, but wifi calling works great. If you want a truly grounding EMF free experience you can put the wifi on the provided timer or turn it off altogether. (Or have us remove it before your stay.) The house next door is also an AirBnB.
Please also sign up for the number of people that will be staying, as more people causes more wear and tear on the property and on the cleaning duties. This is budgeted for, and is covered by an extra guest fee for each person 6 or more.
