Waves crash just below as you settle into this bluff-top home at Sea Ranch. End the day in your private hot tub with the ocean as your soundtrack. Bring your pup -- dogs love the bluff trails here. Room for 8 in this 3-bedroom home. Near Shell Beach tidepools. Whale watching, sunset hikes, and starlit skies -- the coast is calling. On still nights the stars are overwhelming -- no city light for miles in any direction.
With high ceilings, large rooms and comfortable furnishings, this Sea Ranch home is quite new and well-planned. Designed by William Brunner and built by Brian Dixon in 1996, it is approximately 2,400 square feet.
The living room has a nice wood-burning fireplace and opens onto a spacious deck with spa. The large, well equipped and open kitchen/dining area makes for a relaxed cooking and dining experience. Two dogs are allowed!
Three bedrooms and two bathrooms are perfect for up to eight guests. There are two more bedrooms that share a bathroom: one bedroom has two twins, and the other has a king.
Shell Beach is just a short walk away and you have great ocean views across a grassy strip of commons.
The Van Becker home lies on a meadowy cliff about 100 yards from the shore. Featuring a combination dining room and living area, the home is perfectly oriented to the landscape and the ocean. The light pines, unfinished woods, and Berber carpets impart a fresh, natural atmosphere. The centerpiece is the hot tub on the edge of the deck closest to the ocean.
This home is just right for that leisurely get-away you’ve been dreaming of for a long time. Watch that DVD you’ve been wanting to see. Read that book you’ve been meaning to get to. Play around with the piano (yes, the Van Becker home has a piano). Or just enjoy the hot tub, the view, the solitude, or any combination of the above.

The entire home is yours to enjoy -- make yourself at home from the moment you arrive. The private hot tub is available around the clock -- no reservation needed. This home welcomes up to 2 dogs -- the yard and nearby trails are ready for your pup. Driveway parking is available at the property.

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 drive from San Francisco is approximately 2.5 hours via Highway 101 to Highway 1. Fly into Charles M. Schulz-Sonoma County Airport (STS) in Santa Rosa, about 1.5 hours east, and rent a car. The Highway 1 drive along the coast is spectacular and worth building into your travel day.
Good to know: one king bedroom is connected to an office with a queen bed - the shared bathroom is accessed by walking through the queen bedroom.
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 2 dogs are welcome. Please keep dogs on leash on trails and clean up after them.
Cell service can be spotty along the coast. The home has WiFi for staying connected.

About the area
The Sea Ranch is a one-of-a-kind coastal community on the Sonoma Coast, where miles of trails wind through meadows, forests, and along ocean bluffs. Nearby highlights include Shell Beach tidepools (2-minute drive), The Sea Ranch Lodge restaurant, lounge and café (2-minute drive), Black Point headland trails (3-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. Gualala is a quick 10-minute drive south for groceries, dining, and fuel. For a scenic outing, Jenner and Bodega Bay are further down Highway 1.
