Loon's Landing - Hand-built Sea Ranch cabin with fireplace near Bluff Trail, dogs welcome

Hand-built by the owner himself in 2003, this home brings thoughtful design and natural surroundings to your next Sea Ranch escape. In this sunny clearing at the base of redwood-covered hills, you'll be less than a mile from the oceanfront Bluff Trail, the Sea Ranch Golf Links, and the outdoor pool, saunas, and tennis courts at the Del Mar Recreation Center.

Step inside to find a living space that's entirely on one level, with the common areas on one side of the house and the bedroom and bathroom on the other. Just in front of you as you enter are glass doors that lead outside to the deck - a private spot to bring your coffee each morning. Back inside, you'll find a light-filled great room that brings together the living room, the dining room, and the kitchen beneath lofty ceilings with exposed wood beams. A private washer/dryer is also on hand for your convenience.

The entire home is yours to enjoy -- make yourself at home from the moment you arrive. Driveway parking is available at the property. This home welcomes 1 dog -- the yard and nearby trails are ready for your pup. Detailed check-in instructions, including the door code, will be provided prior to your arrival. As a guest, you also have access to Sea Ranch community amenities including the pools, tennis courts, and miles of trails. A recreation pass will be provided.

The Sea Ranch is a one-of-a-kind coastal community on the Sonoma Coast, where miles of trails wind through meadows, forests, and along ocean bluffs. Nearby highlights include community heated pool (North) (7-minute walk), Shell Beach tidepools (7-minute drive), The Sea Ranch Lodge restaurant, lounge and café (7-minute drive). Between the coastal trails, tidepools, heated pools, and The Sea Ranch Lodge's restaurant, you could fill a week without leaving the community. For provisions, Gualala (10 minutes south) has grocery stores, restaurants, and a gas station. Jenner and Bodega Bay are scenic drives south.

Plan for a 2.5-hour drive from San Francisco (Highway 101 to Highway 1). If flying, Santa Rosa's Charles M. Schulz-Sonoma County Airport (STS) is the closest option at about 90 minutes east. You'll want a car here -- the winding coastal roads are half the adventure.

Enjoy stainless steel appliances in the open kitchen, a Netflix-equipped flatscreen TV in the living room, and two desk workspaces - one in the living room and one in the bedroom - in case you need to use the free WiFi to catch up on emails.

Sea Ranch has three recreation centers with heated pools, saunas, and tennis courts. Access passes are provided with your stay -- check availability upon arrival as these shared amenities can be popular during peak times.

Exterior lighting is minimal by design to preserve the stunning dark sky -- bring a flashlight for evening walks and enjoy some of the best stargazing on the California coast.

Spring (April-June) brings a wildflower show across the coastal meadows -- lupine, poppies, and iris paint the landscape. Summer (June-September) brings the warmest days and longest light. Morning fog is common along the coast -- it usually burns off by midday.
