Meadow Oasis

Sunsets paint the sky in oranges and pinks from this ocean-view Sea Ranch home. Warm up in the community sauna after a brisk beach walk. A cozy 0-bedroom retreat for two. Just a 10-minute walk to Shell Beach tidepools. Architecture, nature, and the Pacific -- Sea Ranch has it all. At low tide, the rock shelves reveal a hidden world of anemones, crabs, and starfish. Summer fog burns off by midday, leaving warm afternoons perfect for trail hikes and tidepooling. The space This adorable meadow studio is the perfect way to celebrate your next vacation to sunny Sea Ranch! Every grain of the all-wood interior is brought out by the cascades of natural light coming in through the ocean-view windows, and the antique cabinets, vaulted ceiling, and attractive decor helps to provide a welcoming ambiance throughout. You'll love waking up to the toasty aromas of freshly-brewed coffee and taking leisurely strolls along the redwood trees and coastal foliage lining the ridge to catch glimpses of the deer, fox, and rabbits roaming about the yard. Spend the day at the beach then come home to stream your favorite Netflix movies on your laptop. Later, spread out a blanket or two to enjoy an evening of peaceful stargazing while the ocean surf rolls in below. You can even challenge a friend to a few games on the shared basketball and tennis courts. Take a short half-mile walk down to Shell Beach Access Trail where you can spot seals, search for seashells, and enjoy the pounding surf of the Pacific Ocean. Want to grab a bite to eat? The Ranch Cafe is just three-and-a-half miles south, and there are more terrific restaurants north of you like Bakery Pizza Mexican Food, Cove Azul Bar & Grill, and Taqueria Del Sol.
