A note from the owners: Our mission is simple: When you walk into our Sea Ranch house, we want you to feel at home. Not a rental, a home. Our home. We named our home Katiecastle after our lab, Katie. She embodied everything we love about life—always up for an adventure, curious to explore new places (and food!), and was always the first to relax. Most importantly, she loved spending time with friends and family. ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach nearby ### Pool/Spa - Communal pool ### Internet - Available in the house: WiFi ### Kitchen -

Dec 24, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy We had a great stay!I’ve been vacationing at the Sea Ranch with my family for over 40 years, the last 10 with my husband. We now prefer to travel with our dogs and find it challenging to find accommodations that allow two large furry babes, especially last minute. While this home was larger than we needed, it was clean and well appointed. The bed was comfortable and bath towels newer. The kitchen had the pots and pans we needed, and sharp knives! While we are not used to staying at the north end of the Sea Ranch, we saw plenty of deer and had a good view of the ocean on the clear days. If you’re a family that enjoys beach going a lot, keep in mind that you’ll most likely need to pack up the fam and drive to your beach of choice. We will stay here again. Thank you for a great experience. ##### Christopher G. Stayed 5 nights in Dec 2025
