About this property

Ocean-view barn retreat with two decks, dogs welcome

  • Summary:

    A short trail through the wildflowers connects your front door to the bluffs and the Pacific. Bring your pup -- dogs love the bluff trails here. Curl up by the fireplace as fog rolls in off the Pacific. Room for 7 in this 3-bedroom home. Just a 7-minute walk to the heated community pool. Trails, tidepools, and two heated community pools -- all within reach. The rugged Sonoma coastline unfolds from the deck -- raw, dramatic, and endlessly watchable.



    The Space:

    Breathe in the fresh ocean air at this three-bedroom Sea Ranch retreat—a charming escape with two decks, ocean views, and shared recreation amenities just a short walk away: outdoor pools, tennis courts, and saunas. Take a breathtaking walk on the oceanfront Bluff Trail two blocks south, tee off at the Sea Ranch Golf Links one mile north, and pick up groceries and peruse the eclectic art galleries in downtown Gualala three miles north.



    Where the exterior was designed to resemble a country barn, the interior is full of warm, natural woods, stainless steel appliances, and large windows that frame the ocean and meadows. This is the only home in Sea Ranch with its own apple tree—enjoy fresh apples in summer straight from the branch. Ease into the day with a soak in the jetted tub, bring your coffee outside to one of the furnished decks, and take sunset strolls to Walk On Beach before preparing dinner in the elegant open kitchen.

    Bring your pup along -- this home welcomes up to 1 dog.



    SLEEPING ARRANGEMENTS

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



    PROPERTY AMENITIES

    -- 3 bedrooms, 2 bath + 1 half bath

    -- Gas fireplace

    -- Dog friendly (up to 1)



    COMMUNITY AMENITIES (at Sea Ranch recreation centers)

    -- Heated pools and saunas (at Del Mar, Moonraker, and Ohlson rec centers)

    -- Tennis and pickleball courts (at rec centers)

    -- Miles of coastal bluff trails



    Guest Access:

    From the kitchen to the deck, everything in this home is at your disposal. This home welcomes up to 1 dog -- 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:

    Welcome to The Sea Ranch -- ten miles of rugged Sonoma coastline where modern architecture and wild nature exist in harmony. Nearby highlights include community heated pool (North) (7-minute walk), Shell Beach tidepools (5-minute drive), The Sea Ranch Lodge restaurant, lounge and café (5-minute drive). Between the coastal trails, tidepools, heated pools, and The Sea Ranch Lodge's restaurant, you could fill a week without leaving the community. For provisions, Gualala (10 minutes south) has grocery stores, restaurants, and a gas station. Jenner and Bodega Bay are scenic drives south.



    Getting Around:

    This home sits on the west side of Highway 1, just around the corner from an outdoor heated pool, saunas, and two tennis courts at the Del Mar Recreation Center. 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:

    You can even use the free WiFi as you relax by the fire.



    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.



    Keep your eyes on the horizon from December to April -- gray whales migrate just offshore, and this property has a front-row seat. Visit in spring and the meadows explode with wildflowers. April through June is peak bloom season along the Sonoma Coast. The warmest months are June through September. Expect coastal fog most mornings that gives way to sunny afternoons.



    Up to 1 dog are welcome. Please keep dogs on leash on trails and clean up after them. This is the only home in Sea Ranch with an apple tree — enjoy fresh apples in the summer!

kid friendly home

The house was a good option for a group with small children. We had hoped for a hot tub but the outdoor tub was ahave been an interesting substitution. Although the house is near the ocean it is a bit of a trek to get to th e beach but the tennis courts and pool are very close.

A week in The Barn

We spent a week in The Barn. First the positive things: proximity to the recreation center (if you use that); plenty of kids toys and games, so if you come with a bunch of kids, this place is accommodating; the soaking tub is nice; dog friendly aspect is appreciated; architecture is interesting; both decks are sunny and the deck furniture is comfortable; the living room wood stove is nice and there's plenty of firewood. Now the negative aspects: housekeeping could have done a much better job--there were dirty bowls in the drawers, refrigerator handles were sticky with residue, balls of pet hair behind the living room couch; master bedroom windows toward the ocean do not open--only the side window opens and it lets in highway noise; master bedroom gas fireplace does not operate; the adult bikes are not maintained and are dangerous to ride; the house location is line of sight to the highway and traffic noise is constant (this is clearly shown on the map so it's not an unknown negative aspect, only a heads up); DVD player was broken and Vacasa advised us to operate it with a butter knife; thermostat operation is frustrating and weird; there was no place at all to store food, so we had to store food on the counter and during the night the mice ate holes in our food containers so we had to throw it away--Vacasa advised us to store food in cupboards as a solution; mattress in second bedroom slopes steeply into the center of the bed. For these reasons, we will not be returning to The Barn.

Awesome houe in spectacular setting!

The Barn was unbelievably comfortable and well appointed. From every kitchen utensil to bikes in the garage, it has everything. Within walking distance of the bluff and across the street from one of the rec centers, it is ideally located. Didn't want to leave and can't wait to go back.

Beautiful home!

Our family stayed here for three nights for a coastal get-away. The Barn was spacious, beautiful, relaxing and had everything we needed for our stay with two children and 4 adults. Could see the ocean from the house. We loved exploring the beaches and the area around Sea Ranch as well as just hanging out at the house. Thanks for sharing your home with us. Looking forward to staying again!

Immaculate, spacious home

The Barn was a super comfortable place for my family of 5. It was spotless, spacious, and well-equipped. We particularly appreciated the garage, which has been outfitted as a play area complete with a ping-pong table. Only thing that could have made the house more perfect is a hot tub.
