I've been coming to Sea Ranch for years, yet I had never heard of Stone Ranch until recently. A…read morefriend invited me to their First Sunday of the Month public tour, and I left in awe. Stone Ranch is an enduring legacy of Peter Mullins, who devoted his life to stones, and it has now been lovingly opened to the public by his daughter, Genevieve Mullins. Spread across acres of redwoods, this open air museum holds a collection of extraordinary stone art installations and a few unique dwellings perfect for retreats, weddings, and special events. Absolutely not to be missed when you're in the area. Plan at least 2-3 hours to enjoy the art rain or shine (as a matter of fact some installations come alive with color when raining). See www.Stoneranchmendo.com for the history, tours info, and venue rentals.

Also, no reply from BOOKING .COM. The cost per day was $434.00, we stayed a week, $3,040.00. Wanted to leave after one day/night there, but no refunds at all! I gave it 2 stars because the hot tub and view were wonderful, but so much negative,= 2 stars Adrian Peet

The owners Richard and Shelley provided everything we needed for a getaway to enjoy the northern California coast in comfort and privacy. The cabin is fully equipped including cable tv, dvd, fully supplied kitchen, comfortable beds, plush towels in the bathroom, and an outside deck directly overlooking both the cove and ocean. There's a round table with chairs and umbrella to get out of the sun and two very comfy chairs (one lounge with footrest) to sit and read or just take in the beautiful views. Best sunsets around! Thank you, Richard and Shelley, for providing such a wonderful getaway!

The kitchen is very well stocked with all of the supplies and gear you could possibly need. The views from the house are absolutely incredible, and our family loved greeting the seals perched below each morning. Highlights from our stay included soaks in the hot tub, countless family walks on the bluff trails, exploring the Hot Spot Loop/San Andreas Fault Interpretive Loop, breakfast at Trinks in Gualala, lunch at the Lodge, grilling dinner on the deck, watching tons of World Cup games in the spacious and comfortable living room, and magical visits to Pebble Beach, Ohlson Beach, And Black Point Beach. This year, our boys also attended a week of Sea Ranch Kids Camp at the Links. They enjoyed their time there, especially the bounce house, art projects, and kayaking trip on the Gualala River. Thank you so much for hosting us. We can't wait to come back.

The home we rented (for over $400 per night, plus a $200 non-refundable cleaning deposit) was the "Urban Escape" on Sea Ranch. The property itself was in need of some repairs and upgrades: the hot water tank gave out the first night. The rental agency contact did get a plumber out to us, but I had got the pilot to stay lit while he was there, and he left with the wrong diagnosis (improper ventilation). After repeated re-lightings, the pilot would not stay on. We gave up on it. Also, the built-in microwave was kaput, and the original oven controls were missing. A replacement microwave was set on a counter. One day into the stay, a cabinet door to the kitchen sink area fell off. The fill cycle in the master bath toilet would not shut off without jiggling the handle. Coasting Home should have known of the issues with this home, and should not have listed it. Answer? $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

We tried a…read moredifferent one , one year, and regretted it, and went right back to our tried and true Beach Rentals. These Folks bend over backwards for you. They go the extra mile to make sure you are taken care of. If we are running late, they make special arrangements for the house key, and make sure the hot tub is heating up. We have found over the years that it is actually cost effective and far more rewarding to rent a home in Sea Ranch than stay in a Hotel or Inn on the Coast. They only take checks or cash no credit cards. A ROMANTIC GETAWAY MUST! [A cautionary tale: if you are going to enjoy the hot tub late at night, make sure one of the doors is unlocked, or you have the key with you. We did not: and the only window open was on the second floor bathroom - a skinny one. So, my hunny put the teak bench on it's end, hoisted himself into that tiny crevice and bam down to the floor he goes. After he visited a black widow spider on his way through, but he was fine, I think the spider was to busy trying to figure out what was going on! The rest is history... just don't forget to take care of the door before your legs turn to rubber in the hot tub!]

Our cottage was incredibly cozy, and our days were filled with simple joys: harvesting vegetables from the garden, feeding the bunnies, collecting eggs from the chicken coop, helping shepherd the goats, and playing with the cats. There's also a beautiful beach less than a 5-minute drive away, making it the perfect balance of farm and coast. At Mar Vista, fresh eggs are delivered to your cottage every day. On our last day, we noticed every single egg in our egg basket was blue! We realized Cab or Deanna had probably hand-picked the blue eggs for us after learning that our toddler was in a phase where she loved everything blue. It was such a thoughtful gesture that meant so much to us. And who knew eggs came in so many beautiful colors? That was one of many incredible things we learned/experienced at Mar Vista. Our toddler has been asking to go back every single day since we left, and honestly, so have we. We can't wait to return.

Our cozy cottage was clean with a great view of the garden and ocean. The bed is very comfortable and the provided space heater helped kept us warm at night. Only con I have to say is the pillows were very flat so we had to sleep with both pillows on top of each other for more support. I love that it had a full kitchen so you can cook delicious meals with fresh ingredients such as the daily delivered eggs straight from the chickens and greens you pick from the garden. If you want a break from cooking or want a meal prepped for when you arrive, you can add in the option of a dinner or picnic basket to your reservation as well. For the activities such as chicken chat and goat gab we weren't able to attend; it was raining pretty heavily during our stay so we opted to stay indoors and enjoy the cozy cabin. For the moments where the rain would stop, it was nice to explore the land, making stops by the bunnies and chickens with our dogs. Definitely planing on coming back! Would love to experience Mar Visita during the spring or summer!
