Come take in the ocean, gaze at the starry skies, commune with nature.

"This is a beautifully decorated house stocked with every kitchen item you can think of. I’ve been to Sea Ranch many times and have never stayed on the east side of PCH and I am now wondering why not? Fir Hill Wood was just as peaceful and as close to everything. We enjoyed our hikes, the hot tub and happy hour watching the sun set on the deck. This property is a delight."

10/10 Excellent
"By far the greatest travel destination for an anniversary. The view is stunning, the staff are amazing. The jetted tubs and fireplaces in the rooms were perfect. Mid 50 degrees at night and near 70 during the day on Aug 2. Wow. Get the pizza down the hill, you won’t regret it. All in all… perfection."

"Great place with great views of the river and sea. The home is big inside. Much bigger than it appears from the outside. Easy location off Hwy 1. The kitchen had everything we needed. We’d stay here again for sure."

10/10 Excellent
"The property was great, exactly as advertised, view is spectacular. And thank goodness for the wind-sheltered back patio with bbq, because I'm guessing our 3-day stay was one of the windier stretches of the summer. (as luck would have it, not a wind-wave on the ocean this morning when we left). All in all, we had a great time, thank you!"
