Forest House: 2 BR, 3 BA House in The Sea Ranch, Sleeps 4

Unit 5 BLK 3 Lot 13. Welcome to Forest House at The Sea Ranch, a distinctive two-bedroom, timber-framed home designed in the 1970s by the architect Don Jacobs. Nestled into the forest amidst towering redwoods and other native trees and plants, this tranquil home is also surrounded by decades-old rhododendrons planted by the original owners. The Rhodies put on a fabulous show in the spring and early summer along with an ancient felled redwood, now carpeted in moss, that has become home to native flora. The giant log borders much of the walkway to the house entrance.

We have kept virtually all of the original interiors intact, while introducing modern conveniences for a relaxing, effortless stay. Multi-level living provides both private spaces and communal areas for friends and family, but the quintessential Sea Ranch great room on the main floor is the centerpiece of this gem from the 70s. View the giant redwoods from oversized windows and their treetops through the many skylights above. Forest House is also home to an eclectic mix of photography and artifacts from the owners’ books and travels. Three night minimum required for this home.

This two-bedroom, three-bathroom house is suitable for four people (children included). There are hardwood floors and
paneling throughout much of the house. On the main floor there’s a media room, the great room with dining area, and dining
deck with grill, retro kitchen with an oven too small for a turkey, two bathrooms with tubs, and a bedroom with queen-sized
bed. We call a small second deck “the reading deck.”

The carpeted ensuite master bedroom is on the lower floor at garden level with king-sized bed, bathroom with walk-in shower, aromatic cedar closet and cabinets, and a couple’s spa tub just outside. There are fine cotton linens for all beds, bath, and spa.

Environs: Forest House is adjacent to the trailhead of one of The Sea Ranch’s most thrilling hikes—the Bobcat Trail.
Guests can also reach the trail from any of several woodland paths on our property. The Sea Ranch Lodge and Black Point Beach are a quick drive down the hill.
The Sea Ranch’s three swimming complexes and other beaches are just north, and public and private access trails to the ocean abound.
The nearest markets, restaurants, and gas stations are in the town of Gualala, a 12-minute drive north. Coffee and
breakfast treats (and Friday night pizza) are a five-minute drive south at the fabulous 2-Fish Baking Company at Stewart’s Point on the Pacific Coast Highway. And for your convenience the Forest House is outfitted with a generator in case of power outages.
