Unit Code 34A Lot #4424N. Charlie’s Retreat provides a rare mix of elegant Sea Ranch design, stunning ocean views, and practical comfort for a relaxing vacation.

Designed by legendary Sea Ranch architect Obie Bowman, this 4-bedroom, 4-bath home centers on a great room/kitchen with floor-to-ceiling windows and gorgeous panoramic ocean views.

Four ensuite bedrooms flank both sides of the great room, creating ample space for privacy, remote working, reading a good book, or just gazing at the ocean and west meadow wildlife. Both primary suites have stunning views, one with its private deck. All bedrooms have desks and computer monitors too – if you need to work or start on that novel you’ve always wanted to write.

With an open concept great room/kitchen/dining room, cook in the well-stocked kitchen while friends sip wine and kids play board games or watch a movie

The home’s outdoor spaces are abundant, with an enclosed courtyard garden at the front and an expansive ocean-view deck off the great room. Located on a private cul-de-sac, steps from the Del Mar Center pool, sauna and tennis courts, the trails and beaches are a short walk away and Gualala’s restaurants and shops are a short drive. For those with electric vehicles, there's a level 2 EV charger available at this home (Tesla Universal Dual Plug Type - Compatible for All North American EVs - 48A with 24' Cable). The house also has a whole-house backup generator so you can be cozy during the occasional power outages on the coast. There is a 2 car garage but only 1 side available for guests with a small car.

A fabulous spot for a dog-friendly family vacation, a week of remote working or a retreat with friends.

    Stayed here with some college friends and all our little kids. Every room has an en-suite bathroom, so every family had some privacy and our own space. But we spent most of the time hanging in the living room and the back deck. We also enjoyed the fire pit for s’mores and used the grill too. The house is in a great location. We did some walks and a few of us used the tennis courts across the street. Plus we were such a close drive to Gualala that running out for groceries or grabbing a bite to eat was easy.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Brought myself,husband, three adult children, their partners and two young grandchildren for a long weekend stay. The four bedrooms are comfortable - two have ocean views, all have attached bathrooms. The amenities are wonderful for a large group - coffee makers, lots of large pots and pans, really all the appliances that are needed with large fridges and plenty of baking goods. There is a nice courtyard in front and a deck in back, perfect for hanging out together.

    This property is the nicest vacation home I have had the pleasure of staying in. Kitchen was beyond well stocked, beds were comfortable, the list goes on-and-on. The location is blissful and quiet. A wonderful place to spend an off the grid weekend with family and friends.

    Loved this place. Beautiful property with every possible kitchen accessory/house amenity you could want. So relaxing to hang out in multiple spaces, and every guest had their own bathroom. Literally is the most dog welcome property that we have stayed at. Definitely will be returning.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We have stayed in 20+ houses in Sea Ranch over many years. It's a challenge to find a four bedroom house, especially one that is in beautiful condition and with lovely views. This is a winner. Loved it and would rent it again. Kitchen is very well equipped, though a little tight for more than 2 chefs. Flow of house works very well. Bedrooms are spacious. Bathrooms are updated. Outdoor spaces are excellent. A couple of small items that malfunctioned during our stay (a towel rod, a drawer) but nothing unusual for a rental property.
