In search of the ultimate family getaway for your next Sea Ranch vacation? At this plush and comfortable four-bedroom retreat, you'll enjoy the private hot tub and an outdoor deck with views of the ocean and meadows and an abundance of family-friendly amenities to make your stay a memorable one. This dog-friendly home is ideally located within steps of the Shell Beach Trail on the ocean side of California Highway 1, allowing guests easy access to Shell Beach, tide pools, and the picnic and play areas at One-Eyed Jack Park. It's also just three miles south of the Sea Ranch Golf Links and five miles from the restaurants and shops of downtown Gualala. Whether you're planning a multi-family getaway or a holiday vacation with your kids, you'll love this home's quiet cul-de-sac location and its unobstructed ocean and meadow views.

The heart of this property is the great room, a wonderfully open space with cathedral ceilings, exposed wood paneling, and a wood-burning fireplace made of beautiful stone. It's the perfect place to curl up with a book, complete a puzzle with your children, or watch for passing whales on the distant horizon. Pick up some fresh local produce at the Surf Market in Gualala, and prepare homemade meals in the open gourmet kitchen. You'll have granite countertops, a six-burner gas range, and double ovens to assist you, as well as a dishwasher to take care of the clean-up. Gather your kids after dinner in the family room, which has a plush sectional sofa, a satellite cable TV and DVD player, a Bose sound dock, and an impressive selection of books, games, and toys for all ages. Sip your morning coffee on the lovely ocean view deck, in the private verdant garden, or as you stroll down to Shell Beach to watch the playful harbor seals. As many as two family dogs are welcome to keep you company.

With four bedrooms and three full bathrooms, Cadwalader can comfortably accommodate as many as eight guests. The two downstairs bedrooms, one of which has a king-size bed and the other a queen, enjoy sweeping ocean views, while the upstairs bedroom has a king-size bed as well. There's also a loft space with a queen bed and a twin futon. This home also offers a unique and private outdoor shower.

Swimming pools and tennis courts are also available at the Sea Ranch Del Mar, Ohlson, and Moonraker Recreation Centers. Whether you're a beachcomber, a hiker, or a wildlife enthusiast, this Sea Ranch home is perfectly located for guests of all interests. Take a scenic walk along the Bluff Trail to reach Gualala Point Regional Park three miles north, or head five miles south to visit the Sea Ranch Lodge. You'll also be only 23 miles from the gorgeous Point Arena Lighthouse and Museum, and 54 miles from the artists' colony of Mendocino - both of which are accessed by a particularly stunning stretch of Highway 1.

Picture perfect
We absolutely loved the home, the location, everything. The rooms were comfortable, and the photos were very accurate. The kitchen was outfitted with everything we needed to cook our meals. And we were very lucky that the weather was perfect, so we were able to take advantage of the great walking path down to the beach. I would definitely recommend this house to a group.

Another Great Sea Ranch Trip!
This house is really great. We have stayed in Sea Ranch for Labor Day for 3 years now and this was by far the best house. Clean, fully stocked, and our favorite feature - the 2 living rooms to allow the adults and kids to hang out separately. The location is very proximal to the beach and the view fantastic. We also appreciated being able to bring our dog. Our only feedback is that the checkout time of 10:00 feels very early when trying to pack up from a beach vacation - especially with teenagers! We also did not appreciate the hidden host fees - pet, hot tub, resort, etc. That should really just be included in the price vs. added on after.

Fabulous Family Getaway
The house was spacious, kitchen fantastic, close walk to beaches, access to 3 recreation centers with swimming pools, tennis, pickleball and one rec center with sauna! We enjoyed the large jacuzzi located on one of two large decks, not to mention the ping pong table in garage and flying kites from the large decks. We were just minutes away from Gualala where we visited the art museum located in a beautiful grove of redwoods. The house is a wonderful place to enjoy the great outdoors, have family meals and just hang out. The second living room was filled with games galore and loads of books. We enjoyed ourselves immensely. Thank you to the owners for allowing us to enjoy your terrific home, a true getaway from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.

lovely family reunion
Beautiful spot in the universe. Gorgeous views and fully equipped home. Great for families, our ranged from 1 year to 75 years. We happened to be there when seals were birthing and the weather was perfect.. the home was clean and well furnished and our only suggestions are 2 real chairs for the dining table ( rattan ones are breaking and too low for the table) and a note about location of plates that we didnt find easily,. The hot tub was marvelous and we had beautiful trail walks and enjoyed your home and our time there immenseley.

Serene getaway home.
This home is very nice and spacious. It is well equipped with kitchen goods, games, music and books. Beds are very comfy! Only concern was deck surrounding the hot tub needs some attention. Nails are protruding and several of us got splinters from the very dry wood. Needs replacing or sanding and staining. Loved that home comes with multiple beach towels for hot tub use. Front garden is lovely. Location can’t be beat. It’s a short walk to the beach and located on a quiet cul de sac. Will definitely rent again!

Better Than the Listing
We had a great time. The home is spacious, well-appointed, and an even nicer experience than we imagined. The decks and hot tub were delightful with ocean views. Kitchen was more than expected with any utensil, tool, dish, etc. we needed. We would stay here again anytime. Lovely home. Thank you for sharing!

Lovely retreat.
My only complaint about the home is that while it is a four bedroom, the upstairs bedrooms have shutters that open to the common spaces. Therefore, if anyone is in the kitchen or family room, the sound carries to the upstairs, and wakes up people who might want to be sleeping. Not a deal breaker, but it was a minor inconvenience. Otherwise, the home was a wonderful as it stated in the listing.

Perfect little trip
The house was everything the listing said it would be and we had no issues. The kitchen was the best in terms of design as well as supplies I've ever encountered in a vacation home! And this is a small detail but it was SO NICE that everything was labeled! The light switches, the drawers, it was so easy to find everything. The hot tub was perfect and the beach was 6 minutes walk down the path. Would definitely stay here again!

Great location and well appointed house. Many amenities that make the trip all that much better. Extremely well stocked library and board game collections. Kitchen doesn't leave you wanting of anything. Ocean views from bedrooms and hot tub. Lots of space and different areas to either spend time with others or quite time alone. We loved our stay. First time for us to Sea Ranch. We feel lucky to have stayed here and hope to return again soon!

A GREAT Surprise!
Our family of 5 adults was so comfortable in this vacation home that had 4 bedrooms, with king or queen beds in each room. The high end, well-stocked kitchen was perfect for our family of chefs ~ VERY impressive!! There were many inside and outside "rooms" where folks could casually gather for games/reading/conversation/device-browzing, etc. It was only a 10- minute walk (or 5-minute drive) to a lovely sandy beach, with easy access for kayaks, surf boards and other small walk-in ocean recreation vehicles. The home was exceptionally clean, with minimal/reasonable house rules the made us feel welcomed and comfortable. A GREAT surprise!!

Great rooms, couches need a bit of updating and the kitchen pantry needs to be cleaning out!
The property was great, the space and size of the rooms is fantastic. The quality of the furniture, especially the couch in the family room, should be updated fairly soon. The couch has a huge hole under one cushion to fall right through it. As you can imagine, we did not use that room very much. The gas fireplace was impossible to use as a directions were not clear. The pilot light was never on. The size of the rooms were fantastic in the night sky was breathtaking. The kitchen was fully stocked, too many spices overwhelmed the pantry so our food could not fit in it.
