Located right at the tip of a lazy village hamlet, this is a unique place full of pure magic. A historic beach house with recent renovations, it offers incredible panoramic views of the Pacific Ocean, the majestic mountains, and the crashing beach — sunrise and sunset. In addition, multiple restaurants (2-Star Michelin), cafés, a local art gallery, a history museum, groceries, and curiosity shops make this a friendly place to slow down and wander. Located in a prime coastal location, it's a mere 20 minutes from Mendocino and California wine country. And, if you love to cook, the kitchen is a dream come true, with incredible views, stainless steel appliances, and long marble countertops. Then, snuggled in front of a cozy fireplace or whale-watching out on the large, open deck; you may just want to call this your home forever. Modern and extremely comfortable, the ranch's three bedrooms are equally inviting, with ample natural lighting, soft linens, art, and tasteful decorations. Three full, modern baths are always a plus, too. Book your stay today at SkyDance Ranch to make sure you never miss out — It will absolutely make you want to dance!

House is situated next to the state park. Amazing! We will definitely be back. We appreciate the attention to details & the record player with recordings from the Beatles, Eagles & U2 to name a few was the icing on the cake. Don't let me forget the Police's greatest hits.

Apr 8, 2024 #### Beautiful comfortable get away We got to stay at this house when our original rental wasn't available. The weather was mostly stormy while we were there but watching the storms roll in off the ocean was great. The views are amazing. The private/secluded beach is a short walk away, a relatively easy trail for kids and parents which had a steady but manageable slope. Wifi held up great, handled virtual work meetings, kids on switches and cell phones just fine. The house has some of the best amenities we've encountered. There was a variety of spices, pans and dishware. We had as much fun cooking in as we did dining out. Kids really enjoyed reading and playing board games in front of the gas fireplace. Parents really enjoyed lounging with a cup of hot chocolate staring out at the ocean. ##### Bree A. ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Grand Hyatt Indian Wells Resort & Villas](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Hyatt-Regency-Indian-Wells-Resort-Spa.h16130.Hotel-Information) > > [Marriott's Desert Springs Villas I](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Marriotts-Desert-Springs-Villas-I.h661796.Hotel-Information) > > [JW Marriott Desert Springs Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-JW-Marriott-Desert-Springs-Resort-Spa.h17123.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Regency Huntington Beach Resort and Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Huntington-Beach-Hotels-Hyatt-Regency-Huntington-Beach-Resort-And-Spa.h890502.Hotel-Information) > > [The Ritz-Carlton, Rancho Mirage](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-The-Ritz-Carlton.h23876.Hotel-Information) > > [Tommy Bahama Miramonte Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Miramonte-Indian-Wells-Resort-Spa.h16768.Hotel-Information) > > [La Quinta Resort & Club, Curio Collection by Hilton](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-La-Quinta-Resort-Club.h10916.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Grand Vacations Club Palm Desert](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Embarc-Palm-Desert.h328421.Hotel-Information) > > [The Westin Mission Hills Resort & Villas for COACHELLA 2020 (1st weekend)](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Cochella-Stay-At-The-Westin-Mission-Hills-Resort-Villas.h34078793.Hotel-Information) > > [Great Wolf Lodge Anaheim, CA](https://www.expedia.ca/Garden-Grove-Hotels-Great-Wolf-Lodge-Anaheim.h14910044.Hotel-Information) > > [Renaissance Esmeralda Resort & Spa, Indian Wells](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Renaissance-Esmeralda-Resort-Spa.h12274.Hotel-Information) > > [Omni Rancho Las Palmas Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Omni-Rancho-Las-Palmas-Resort-Spa.h1703.Hotel-Information) > > [Paradise Point Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Diego-Hotels-Paradise-Point-Resort-Spa.h3731.Hotel-Information) > > [Agua Caliente Casino Rancho Mirage](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Agua-Caliente-Resort-Casino-Spa-Rancho-Mirage.h2020169.Hotel-Information) > > [The Ritz-Carlton, Half Moon Bay](https://www.expedia.ca/Half-Moon-Bay-Hotels-The-Ritz-Carlton.h602927.Hotel-Information) > > [The Westin Rancho Mirage Golf Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-The-Westin-Mission-Hills-Golf-Resort-Spa.h4124.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Regency Orange County](https://www.expedia.ca/Garden-Grove-Hotels-Hyatt-Regency-Orange-County.h15965.Hotel-Information) > > [San Diego Mission Bay Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Diego-Hotels-San-Diego-Mission-Bay-Resort.h25598.Hotel-Information) > > [Ace Hotel and Swim Club](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Ace-Hotel-And-Swim-Club.h22864.Hotel-Information) > > [Residence Inn By Marriott Palm Desert](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Residence-Inn-By-Marriott-Palm-Desert.h201084.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Vacation Club at Desert Oasis](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Welk-Resorts-Palm-Springs.h1140793.Hotel-Information) > > [Riviera Resort Palm Springs](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Margaritaville-Resort-Palm-Springs.h26011.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Regency Mission Bay Spa and Marina](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Diego-Hotels-Hyatt-Regency-Mission-Bay-Spa-And-Marina.h858.Hotel-Information) > > [The Oasis](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-The-Oasis-Resort.h1180912.Hotel-Information) > > [Delta Hotels by Marriott Anaheim Garden Grove](https://www.expedia.ca/Garden-Grove-Hotels-Delta-Hotels-By-Marriott-Anaheim-Garden-Grove.h519819.Hotel-Information) > > [Solage, Auberge Collection](https://www.expedia.ca/Calistoga-Hotels-Solage.h1640078.Hotel-Information) > > [The Westin Desert Willow Villas, Palm Desert](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-The-Westin-Desert-Willow-Villas.h3304313.Hotel-Information) > > [Marriott's Desert Springs Villas II](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Marriotts-Desert-Springs-Villas-II.h57218.Hotel-Information) > > [Marriott's Shadow Ridge I-The Villages](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Marriotts-Shadow-Ridge.h853695.Hotel-Information) > > [Embassy Suites by Hilton Anaheim South](https://www.expedia.ca/Garden-Grove-Hotels-Embassy-Suites-By-Hilton-Anaheim-South.h662857.Hotel-Information)
