Ready for some rest, relaxation, and quality time with your loved ones? Look no further than this oceanview vacation rental in Sea Ranch, which boasts a private hot tub as well as room for a group of eight and a great location near the beach. Located within an easy quarter-mile stroll of Walk On Beach, this is a great place to enjoy proximity to the sea. Families traveling with children will enjoy the playground and picnic area just down the street!

Inside this three-bedroom, three-bathroom house you'll have plenty of space to spread out and relax. The living room is homey and welcoming, with wood-paneled walls and ample seating, as well as a large stone fireplace to keep the space warm on even the chilliest evenings. Sunlight streaming in through the many windows creates a very open space, and there's even an upright piano in case any musicians in your group feel like performing. Walk into the large kitchen, which is well equipped with all the standard appliances, plus double ovens, gorgeous cabinets, and pendant lighting. This is a great space for socializing while preparing meals, since it's open to the dining area. When it's time to eat, sit down at the dining room table or at the breakfast bar. A cozy windowseat provides the perfect place to sit with a mug of tea or glass of wine and look out the large windows at the scenery.

The main level of this home has two bedrooms and two bathrooms. The first of these bedrooms has a king-size bed and the second has a queen bed. Upstairs is a fun loft area with a double-size futon, seating, a pool table, and plenty of space for the kids to set up their toys. The final bedroom and bathroom are in a unique crow's nest above the garage, detached from the main house. Up here you'll find a full-size bed, rustic details, and great views. This arrangement will be perfect for a couple to have their own space, or for a teen to have a room of their own where they can sleep in.

All in all, this house sleeps a total of eight guests. Though the inside spaces are delightful, the outdoor areas might be even better! There's a lovely deck area with ocean views, making it the perfect place to watch a sunset. Best of all, a private hot tub nestled in a fenced courtyard is ready and waiting to help you truly relax. Additionally, this home has a private laundry area just off the kitchen so you won't have to worry about what to do with crumpled or dirty clothes. Entertainment options include cable TV and board games, and you'll have access to a rec center, but let's face it - you're here to enjoy the beach and the relaxing atmosphere!

With easy beach access just along the Bluff Trail, it's a snap to get to the sandy shore of Walk On Beach. You can also walk to some other nearby stretches of sand, including Shell Beach, or spend an afternoon strolling along the the bluff or walking through the hedgerows. If you want to head to the nearest town for shopping or dining, check out Gualala, which is just four miles to the north. On the way there, you'll pass The Sea Ranch Golf Links. Spend a morning golfing then head into town for a leisurely lunch at Trinks Cafe in Gualala! You deserve a vacation, and this wonderful oceanview house in Sea Ranch is ready and waiting to provide the perfect backdrop for relaxation and fun!

We have been coming to the Norman House for approximately 15 years. It is still an amazing home in an amazing location in the meadow. The home is older and need of repairs and updates but otherwise is comfortable.

Great house
The house is well stocked and in a lovely location to be able to walk to all the beaches, we hardly needed the car at all. Our kids loved the loft and the layout is great for families. There were a couple of problems with firewood and propane but the local Vacasa office was very prompt in addressing them for us! The house could do with some basic maintenance from the owners, but it’s a lovely sea ranch house.

Lovely place,…. Vacasa, not so much
Our stay was incredible because of the dear friends with whom we shared the experience. Sea Ranch is one of my favorite places in earth. But we were frustrated by the fact that there was no hot water for most of our stay, and the Vacasa property management person who “assisted” us was extravagantly unhelpful. In fact, she seemed determined NOT to be helpful. Eventually a technician came - but the hot water was back off within hours. We were given a long list of suggestions as to how to find hidden breaker panels, and to service the water heater ourselves. None of which worked The series of sweetly bossy text messages caused an entire afternoon of unpleasantness and stress for me, my husband and our guests. I will go out of my way to avoid patronizing any property managed by Vacasa in the future. We received relentlessly cheerful - yet were served in an utterly frustrating and inexcusable manner.

Unexpected, but Enjoyable.
Firstly, kudos to the staff at the Gualala Vacasa office. They did a stellar job of scrambling new lodgings for us even though we were already on route and the original house was without power. Secondly, Norman House was a pleasant surprise for a last minute swap. Well laid out kitchen/dining room area with visibility through to all guests, even in the living room. The ample, numerous window seats were great, as was the quite large fireplace. A suggestion might be a handyman visit to address slight leaks in one or two of the window seals along the window seats. There may be a few other areas only visible due to the recent heavy rains. Lovely Sea Ranch visit, as usual, even when handed the unexpected-- thank you! Jon
