Absolutely Perfect!

This vacation property is outstanding! The pictures Online are great, but the actual home is even better. The location could not be any better. The views are amazing. Windows are everywhere. The sound of the ocean waves crashing on the rocks is so relaxing. Checking in and out was a breeze. The property owner is very welcoming and responsive. Our experience could not have been any better.

The best place in Sea Ranch

This is by far the best place to rent in Sea Ranch - I have been a local visitor to Sea Ranch for years and Caryl's home is by far the best - not only is the location absolutely amazing if you love to walk the bluffs and hear the waves crash against the cliffs, but the home itself is outstanding!

Wonderful spot in Sea Ranch

We've stayed in Sea Ranch many times, but this is our favorite home! We had strong storms roll in which we really enjoyed watching right from our window seat. Plenty of spots to tuck in and read. We brought food and cooked most meals and the kitchen was great with everything we needed. Host and contact company were both great!

Fabulous Ocean Knoll

We have stayed here a number of times over the years and each time it has just been a fantastic relaxing get away. It is a perfect home for 2 couples as everyone has "space" but can still enjoy the company of one another. We will be back!!! Thank you once again!!!

Lovely home with perfect ocean view!

I've stayed at many Sea Ranch houses, and this one was definitely the best! The architecture is perfectly designed to capture the ocean view from both the main living room/kitchen area and the master bedroom, and you can walk right out the door to the bluff trail. The kitchen is well-stocked, fireplace works great, bed was very comfortable, nice big leather sofa in the living room that was perfect for two people to stretch out on and enjoy the ocean view... No complaints at all! It was just the two of us on this trip, but I think this house would also be great for a family with kids, or two couples, since the two bedrooms are very separate from each other and have separate bathrooms.

Best ever! Beautiful!

The location couldn’t have been better! It was so beautiful! The kitchen was stocked well. I recommend double checking to see that you have the lockbox combination before going. That email never got to me, and I should have checked before arriving. I have no complaints about the house, only wonderful recommendations! The host was very kind and helpful as well.

Absolutely fantastic

We've been renting homes in Sea Ranch for a long time and this is probably my favorite. I'm a very picky renter and I can't think of one thing to criticize.The host was fantastic to communicate with. I could write a long list of everything that's great about the house but here are a few: First is the whitewater view, which you can see from the living room, dining room and kitchen, as well as the master bedroom, and a large window seat facing the ocean. Everything was sparkling clean, with tasteful furnishings. We don’t cook much but the kitchen seemed really well-equipped, with new cabinetry and appliances. The house is simply comfortable and relaxing in every way. It’s cozy but not cluttered and feels spacious at the same time. We loved the wall art --mostly prints of Ansel Adams photographs. The lighting was just right. There’s central heating/AC so the temp is consistent throughout. (These may seem like small details but we’ve stayed in lots of other houses with terrible lighting, weird chachkas everywhere, and creepy paintings!) There is satellite TV with a Roku.The beds were very comfortable and there were high quality bed linens and towels. There were many other things we really appreciated, like lots of extra towels, night lights, packets of toiletries, and hooks next to the sinks where you can hang a hand towel. Again, details but just the kind of stuff that makes your stay easy and convenient. We would love to come back to this house any time!

Beautiful home, pristine clean, fabulous host

Ocean Knoll just makes me happy! One can walk out the door, across the yard and directly onto the cliff trail that can be hiked for many beautiful miles. Or from a window seat, you can watch a dancing fire in the new wood-burning fireplace while simultaneously gazing at crashing ocean waves. Bliss! The layout is comfortable (easily shareable) and private, and the kitchen is well equipped and easy to cook in. It’s nice that Gualala is nearby for supplies and cafes, though we felt little desire to leave “home." We enjoyed the downstairs patio and hot tub, and especially catching sunsets from the upstairs deck. Not to mention swimming in Sea Ranch's very large pool and taking advantage of its saunas. Plus Caryl made us feel so welcome. This was our third visit, with more to come I hope. No fuss; just perfect in every way!

Perfect stay…

The previous reviews don’t lie. My highest compliment to a rental property is whether I will go back - no doubt on this one. The house sits above a small cove with ocean views out every window. Thoughtfully furnished with anything you might need including two wood burning fireplaces. Don’t hesitate to book this property.
