Summary:

The view from this deck is worth the drive alone -- ocean as far as you can see. End the day in your private hot tub with the ocean as your soundtrack. Bring your pup -- dogs love the bluff trails here. Room for 8 in this 3-bedroom home. Near Shell Beach tidepools. Your front door opens to Sea Ranch's 50 miles of trails and the wild Sonoma Coast. Nothing resets your pace like watching the tide come and go from your own living room.



The Space:

Newly renovated for 2024! A private hot tub, ocean views, and a dog-friendly attitude await you at this classic and charming hexagon-shaped Sea Ranch home. A interior complete with a spiral staircase is the perfect home base for your next Sonoma Coast getaway.



Sea Ranch also has three recreation centers with pools, tennis, and saunas, as well as miles of hiking trails and a number of peaceful and beaches.



Located right near the Shell Beach access trail (roughly a 10-minute walk), the One-Eyed Jack’s Playground, and hiking trails just steps from home, you’ll also be five miles from Gualala for groceries, dining options, and a couple of galleries.



The unique hexagon floorplan boasts dramatic vaulted ceilings, a glass-framed cupola, and plenty of windows for natural light. Upstairs, you’ll find two bedrooms and a living area with a wood-burning stove and window seat, two decks, and sweeping ocean and meadow views. It is not uncommon to see deer, foxes, bobcats, coyotes, turkeys, and even migrating whales.



The kitchen at this cozy and eclectic home has a modern stove/oven and range, as well as all the other major appliances (including a dishwasher). Preparing meals in this space will no doubt be easy and fun. When it’s time for a meal, the dining table seats six, and there is additional counter seating nearby. Two of the three bedrooms are on this main level.



Down the spiral staircase, you’ll find a relaxing sunroom with a second wood-burning stove and the primary bedroom - a relaxing retreat with views of the meadow and ocean and direct access to the hot tub area. This lower level also features the second bathroom with a Mexican hand-painted sink and a walk-in shower with a rainfall showerhead.



Outdoor space abounds on the lower level, with an enclosed courtyard, a spacious deck, a charcoal grill, and a hot tub under the stars. There is also a large-capacity washer/dryer. Guests with mobility challenges may find the stairs difficult to navigate**'



SLEEPING ARRANGEMENTS

Choose from 3 bedrooms. Altogether, the home comfortably sleeps 6.

Guest Access:

This is your private retreat for the duration of your stay -- full run of the house. The private hot tub is available around the clock -- no reservation needed. This home welcomes up to 2 dogs -- the yard and nearby trails are ready for your pup. Driveway parking is available at the property. Detailed check-in instructions, including the door code, will be provided prior to your arrival. As a guest, you also have access to Sea Ranch community amenities including the pools, tennis courts, fitness center, and miles of trails. A recreation pass will be provided.



The Neighborhood:

This home is located in The Sea Ranch on the Sonoma Coast, a masterfully planned community known for its dramatic coastline, meadows, and forest trails. Nearby highlights include Shell Beach tidepools (2-minute drive), The Sea Ranch Lodge restaurant, lounge and café (2-minute drive), Black Point headland trails (3-minute drive). Explore over Sea Ranch's 50 miles of trails, discover tidepools at low tide, swim in heated community pools, and end the day with dinner at The Sea Ranch Lodge. Gualala is a quick 10-minute drive south for groceries, dining, and fuel. For a scenic outing, Jenner and Bodega Bay are further down Highway 1.



Getting Around:

The Sea Ranch Golf Links is four miles north, and a day trip to Mendocino is about an hour's drive (53 miles). Charles M. Schulz-Sonoma County Airport (STS) in Santa Rosa is the nearest airport, about 1.5 hours east. A car is essential for exploring the area.



Other Things to Note:

Sea Ranch has three recreation centers with heated pools, saunas, and tennis courts. Access passes are provided with your stay -- check availability upon arrival as these shared amenities can be popular during peak times.



Exterior lighting is minimal by design to preserve the stunning dark sky -- bring a flashlight for evening walks and enjoy some of the best stargazing on the California coast.



December through April is whale season. You may spot gray whales breaching right from the bluff trail nearby. Wildflower season (April-June) transforms the coastal bluffs into a tapestry of color -- worth an extra walk on the trails. Summer offers long days and warm afternoons, though the iconic Sonoma Coast fog often rolls in at sunrise and clears by noon.



Up to 2 dogs are welcome. Please keep dogs on leash on trails and clean up after them.



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

    Interesting house. Nice views, balconies, etc. Good hot-tub and the beds were comfy. Terrible, death trap pantry with unsecured safety devices that fall on guest’s heads. It is a nice house and I blame all the problems on VACASA, the management company. They are uncaring and lazy and will cost these owners money, by not securing re-renters.

    We loved Seas the Day as a Vacasa rental. It was our first visit to Sea Ranch and the proximity to the beach, amenities in the house and sleeping options were definitely a major hit for this home. The kitchen is outfitted to the nines, with so many plates, cups, bowls, pots, pans, etc. I can't think of anything that this house lacked. They have a substantial collection of family-friendly board games (almost too much, the closet was bursting!) to entertain you, when you are not mesmerized by the view of the ocean from the nearly floor to ceiling windows. The artwork and decor are tasteful with homey touches. Lots of seating options so the kids could spread out and have their own reading nook. The two bunk beds were perfect for our purposes, with a Queen bed on the upper/main floor and King bed on the lower/first floor. The washer and dryer looked pretty new. There were plenty of towels for bathroom use and separate ones for pool/beach/hot tub use. The only downside is the lack of screen doors for the sliding glass doors (except in the Primary bedroom downstairs), as it got quite warm in the afternoon with the abundant light coming through the large windows facing West. We tried leaving the glass door open to allow the ocean breeze to flow through, but then, lots of flies/bugs came in, including a hummingbird! We had to work gingerly to help the hummingbird fly out, as it kept flying into the large windows thinking it could go outside that way. Overall, this is an excellent home and we would definitely return here again for our next Sea Ranch trip.

    This property was clean, spacious, and beautiful. We had ample room to relax and enjoy our time together, while also having our own private spaces. The kitchen was fully equipped with everything we needed for meal preparation, including a generous selection of utensils, cookware, and essentials. I especially appreciated the easy access to nearby trails and the private courtyard area where our dog could come and go freely from the house. The property also offered a variety of puzzles, games, and books, adding to our enjoyment. The mattresses were exceptionally comfortable, with a medium-firm feel and soft cotton sheets. The WIFI was super fast. The heater worked fine, and the wood-burning stoves provided extra warmth and coziness during the cold mornings. The hot tub was clean and a real highlight of our stay. The views were truly spectacular, and there were many indoor and outdoor areas to sit (or lie in an awesome window seat) to relax and soak in the beauty—beautiful sunsets over the Pacific Ocean. Overall, our stay was fantastic, and we loved every aspect of the property. I only wish we could have stayed longer.

    One of the best homes we have rented in Sea Ranch (of about 10 over the years). Excellent location, close to Shell Beach and the seal rookery. Great layout. Lots of new investment in the home. Relatively well appointed kitchen (fridge could use an update but other than that, great). Comfortable beds throughout. Nice hot tub. Strong recommend for a house that balances some recent updates with original old school Sea Ranch charm.

    This is by far our favorite place at Sea Ranch (and we have stayed in many homes). There are lots of comfortable spots to relax, including several decks, a window seat large enough to really stretch out on, a fabulous hot tub under the stars, and super comfy beds (which is a big deal since everyone has their own preferences for mattresses). It was perfect for our dog as well, as there was a small, fenced in courtyard so he could do his business in the night without our having to put on the leash and go out into the cold with him. There was even a dog water and food station near the dining area so he could eat with the family. The location is great. About a 7 minute walk to the beach and close to a ton of trails, including our favorite- the Bluff trail. Fun board games were provided, which got everyone (even the teenager) off of their devices for a while. That being said, the WiFi was excellent. The kitchen had everything we needed also. In all, we have found our go-to home away from home at Sea Ranch.
