We loved this home!! It was beautiful inside and out - such a quality home. It had all the amenities we could have wanted, and was peaceful and serene. It was a joy to have stayed there.
The entire home was clean, had all of the necessary (and then some) items for an enjoyable stay, the setting was stunning and our dogs were easy to accomodate.We will be back
Attention to detail, comfortable, beds were great, kitchen was exceptional and architecture was amazing. We have been coming to Sea Ranch since 1977, owned here for 10 yrs, and renting now when we come and this is the best house ever!

Reviewer Comments:
Entertainment system needs a PhD in computer science to operate. If you want NetFlix or Apple TV bring your own log-in credentials. Ant infestation is so bad you can’t leave anything on the kitchen counters. Learned the hard way when a box of 2 Fish pastries was overwhelmed 30 minutes after putting it down. Two lights in the great room burned out. Setting thermostat for heating needs instructions; none provided. Garden/courtyard needs attention; leaves on the ground got tracked everywhere.

Wonderful ! Beautifully designed. Loved the architecture. Loved it from the moment I walked through the gate. I did miss being able to easily watch live TV., but that’s ok. And there were times it was very chilly in the house and we couldn’t get the heat up. BUT, plenty of hot water. I would recommend to anyone.

Our first time to Sea Ranch and we loved it. At first, we were a little sad we weren’t closer to the ocean, but it was colder and windy down there. This home seems protected from the wind and it was warm and sunny. The garden it lovely and elating.

Our second time at Redwood Breakers, and just as good as the first. The place doesn't disappoint. Great location and view, excellent layout, furnishings and conveniences. Clean, well maintained and well-stocked. Good sound system and nice-sized TV with multiple streaming services, although sometimes a little tough to navigate. We'll be back.
We really enjoyed the serenity of the home. It almost felt like there were no neighbors! Really lovely view, comfortable master bed.Saw an abundance of wildlife- fox, deer, seabirds, turkeys. The kitchen and pantry were really well stocked.We enjoyed the many books and the piano. Hot tub was pristine. Would stay here again!

Everything about this house and our experience was perfect. We absolutely loved this house and did not want to leave! The design, the views, the decor, the amenities. Everything was exactly what we needed to enjoy a two night getaway. We walked, we lounged, we cooked, and stared out at the view and laughed at the quail running around outside...and my son played with well stocked games. We loved that we could bring our dog with us and that the house was equipped to handle pets.
The home was very well stocked from, kitchen, laundry, pet supplies. Very clean, and the view was incredible. Very quiet and relaxing location. Will return. :)

Wonderful week celebrating our anniversary. Home is one of the nicest we have stayed at in many years of vacationing at the Sea Ranch. The only negative for us was a pet odor that we found to be somewhat unpleasant, centered around one of the couches. The weather was mild, so airing out the home took care of the issue. Otherwise, it was perfect!
