Kitchen good - once you locate where items are stored. Kitchen towels are inadequate. They are two black bath hand towels. Absolutely bring your own. We rented this place for 4 adults and 2 young kids. Be sure to carefully look at the bedroom descriptions. The third bedroom is a previous dining room / breakfast nook with a barn door added to it. It is right off the kitchen and adjacent to living room. Makes it challenging to put young kids to bed and have adults visit in living room. Place was clean but worn. Towels and sheets pillows and bedspreads are tired. Several Window screens broken- a raccoon but his paw through the broken screen in the living room at dusk— we scared him off. Made us hesitant to open windows where screens were broken. Decent house desperately in need of a refresh. Location is great. Not much of a view- as accurately stated - but easy walk to several beaches, play structure and bluff trail. Hot tub in front of enclosed patio is delightful. I hesitate to be critical- but overall we were a bit disappointed with the experience. With a refresh - this would be a good place for families with older kids.

Wonderful house. We've stayed here multiple times and hope to return. It's less than a 5-minute walk to the beach and the bluff trail. The meadow view is stunning and there are small views of the ocean. The house is will equipped, clean and the rooms are comfortable. The courtyards and landscaping are lovely and the hot tub is nicely situated. Can't wait to come back!

The location was perfect, beds were comfortable, fireplace was great, hot tub and outdoor space were nice, and house was clean. For the price we felt it lacked charm and coziness. We also felt the kitchen could use an update as many of the utensils/tools were either old or need some care (ie dull knives) or were lacking (only two dish towels for a 3 night stay). We stayed on a holiday weekend and paid nearly 1000 in fees initially (on top of the price of the house) and then were also charged an additional 175 for bringing two dogs, which we weren’t aware of until the day of the reservation. The management company didn’t send the contract until right before we arrived and then texted me a reminder at 2am, which I felt was odd. Overall, we had a great weekend with our friends at this house but there were a few inconveniences that just did not feel consistent with how much we paid.

We've stayed in three other homes at Sea Ranch. Each had its charms. This was our favorite. We were there for several weeks with our two dogs. We liked everything about this home. It was spacious, clean, good amenities. The little courtyard out front was a welcome touch with beautiful plants, some privacy, a little bit of outdoor space for the dogs. Nice hot tub. What makes this home special is its excellent location - short walks to both Walk On Beach and Shell Beach. Well situated in relation to Gualala.Grand Welcome was helpful to work with - much easier than past experiences with Vacasa.In the not everything is perfect department - the Internet doesn't work at all in one bedroom and sparsely in the other (both have nice beds!) The water takes a long time to warm up and if you use too much the entire water will shut off for the house. Schedule showers accordingly.Also - respect the signs about raccoons! They are definitely about and active. We had a Thule on top of our car with footprints leading up to it and had a couple of visual sightings.All in all a really nice stay in a really nice house. Highly recommended.

This house worked wonderfully for two parents and four teenagers. The house is perfectly located within Sea Ranch, very close to the ocean and within walking distance of two wonderful beaches. The home was clean, quiet and had plenty of space for everyone. Would definitely stay here again - thank you!

Over Done

The house was clean and well out fitted. Great location. Our only problem was the amount of signs pasted all over the house. It truly wrecked the ambiance. There was a sign every three feet. An example of the signs were keep windows closed because of raccoons. Three feet down the wall near the thermostat, don’t touch the thermostat, open the windows. Seriously? I felt I was in a Motel Six in the middle of Nevada. We have never had that experience in Sea Ranch. Other properties put all the notices in a binder which we would have been fine with.

What a hidden gem! Loved it!

My husband, my two kids ages 13 and 10 stayed here for three nights. What a wonderful home! The kids have never liked a vacation I’ve planned so far, but they loved this one. They’re talking about the next time we go to Sea Ranch. Total win!

Lovely House

We had the best time at the Deer View house! It was clean and very spacious for my family of 4. Great location to the bluff trail and Shell Beach. My kids loved walking to the playground everyday down the street. We will definitely be back. Thank you for a wonderful stay :)

Family new year's celebration

We were four adults and four children here to celebrate the New Year. The location was excellent- we were extremely close to the playground and one of the wider beaches (I'm forgetting the name) perfect for hours and hours of kids having fun. The house is very cozy and it was perfect for all of us. As another guest notes in the review: there are two dedicated bedrooms with doors that close, there is a room with two fold-out couches that has a folding screen you can set up for privacy and there is a room off the kitchen that has a sliding barn-style door. For us, the adults slept in the bedrooms and the kids slept in the room with the fold-out screen. It did mean that at kid bedtime, we were pretty limited in what we could do, since that room is connected and exposed to the kitchen and living room, but for us it worked fine-- but something to note for other groups. The hot tub is wonderful and there's an outdoor shower with hot water. We cooked all our meals easily in the kitchen (to note: supplies are limited, for example, no spices.) Another note: there are lots of games and kid toys and some kid books. Some of the toys are not functional, but our kids still enjoyed the novelty of the items. There's a fire place, though we never used it. There's no speaker system that we could find, so if you enjoy music, you should bring a portable speaker. There are tvs in every room. You'll need to sign in to your own streaming accounts. We greatly enjoyed this home.

Great location, amazingly warm home

Kids my husband and our two dogs enjoyed this house. It is airy, beautiful, with warm floors, which is amazing feature, located in walking distance to shore trail and beaches. And short distance to the pool. The view and patio is not ideal but it did not destruct us from enjoying our vacation. Strangely for the caliber of this rental, the cleaning supplies were very limited and cooking utensils suboptimal. The vacuum was old and semi functional, and despite our best efforts to get rid of the sand from the beach before entering, it accumulated and was a chore to clean. There was no gas grill and no coal or wood for wood burning fireplace provided, but in all we will be filled with many positive memories and just hope the management may make improvements that would enhance the stay of its guests to come.
