Loved it! Thank you for sharing this special place!!

This is our third time staying at what everyone in our family calls “The Gualala House”. The house, the location and the amenities are perfect for our group (11 adults, teens and kids). And the hosts Nick and Judy are lovely, gracious and super quick to respond. We cannot recommend highly enough!

We absolutely love this house! This was our second visit (first visit I was pregnant, this time we had our 16-month-old in tow). Lovely property for the whole family and our dogs to enjoy. Our favorite spot is on the wrap around deck!

This is a beautiful property with an amazing view. The house is clean and stocked with everything you can imagine for a wonderful vacation. I would definitely stay here again and went home feeling a sense of peace and calm from listening to the ocean waves day and night. I love that place! Wonderful hosts.

LOVED this place, would go back. Hot tub with cold plunge of my dreams, loved that it doesnt use chlorine as my skin cant handle it. Only critique is it says sleeps 15 but that must count on kiddos coming, and we had adults and families that left kids behind, and felt we were short a bed. But we adapted and had a wonderful time. What a beautiful place! Loved the huge lawn for lawn games!

Fantastic views from the living space, deck and hot tub make this a superb place to spend time. Easily accommodates large group for meal time. Room layout provides privacy for large group with various needs. Recommend!

This house is fantastic!! Great location, walking distance to many things in Gualala (including walking paths along the bluff). Very well equip kitchen and house in general. And, INCREDIBLE, magical, perfectly placed hot tub!!

This was our second stay at the property. We enjoyed our visit very much! The location is great and the house is comfortable. The view from the patio is beautiful and the property is good for kids.

We loved staying here. Such a fabulous retreat a short walk from town and short drive from all the trails and beaches. Can’t wait to come back!

Our group of extended family, kids and dogs had a great time! The house and grounds were perfect for both spreading out and being together. We spent a lot of time on the deck and the kids and dogs made good use of the yard. The house is very well equipped, especially the kitchen. The location was perfect!

Had 8 adult children staying. Very comfortable. Great proximity to village and view of ocean

The pictures did not do the property justice. Our group enjoyed the large yard and being able to spread out comfortably throughout the campus. The kitchen is well stocked with every tool or pantry need you can think of. The proximity to town allowed us to meander down to the farmers market on Saturday and enjoy all that Gualala had to offer. We hope to come back soon.

It was a lovely house to stay in and had plenty of room. Everyone loved it and made our vacation more enjoyable.

We enjoyed the relaxing atmosphere. The well stocked kitchen made it a joy to cook. And the views were magnificent!

Really functional house for a group of families to gather. Great fenced yard with lots to explore. Very clean and well stocked.

This is a spacious home with 5 Bedrooms and 3 Bathrooms. Perfect for family gatherings, girl's getaways and for multiple couples vacationing together. It is well equipped with all you need and the little town of Gualala is close by as are other attractions of this beautiful coastline of Northern California. Our total number was only 3 adults + 2 children but there is room for more! If the weather is warmer, there is a nice deck all around to enjoy. The Property Manager was very responsive to our request for a space heater (it took a day to heat up the house as it was chilly when we arrived) for an elderly member of our group, which was much appreciated. The large TV upstairs was great for the kids and adults! The Hot Tubs, while an attractive feature, were somewhat difficult to use because of the heavy covers...also the cooktop required reading the instruction manual if you are not familiar with electric induction ranges! Fortunately, the hosts provide a manual for the home. Groceries from the two stores in town were pricey, so suggest a stop to shop before heading out to the coast. You cannot walk to the beach from here but a short drive North or South of town take you to some amazing beaches. Good Wi-Fi but unreliable cell phone reception. All in all, a nice property for a larger group and a perfect place to make your "basecamp" as you explore this lovely area! Touring tip: Check out the Anderson Valley for Wine Tasting!

Perfect !

Fantastic property- truly a home away from home with everything you need to be comfortable. The set up was perfect for a two-family (with kids) vacation. Kitchen is incredibly well stocked. Soaking tub was one of a kind. Short walk to town (super close to our favorite cafe)! I love the attention to small details: high quality, environmentally friendly, hypoallergenic soaps and cleaning products; amazing water pressure; large washer and dryer; plenty of towels; a surprise massage chair! The owner was kind, responsive and clearly cares for this home. One of the best VRBO properties I’ve ever stayed in!

While the house itself is not overly big, there was enough space for all 11 of us (2 families, 2 singles). It is a VERY well-appointed house, with lots of specialty cooking equipment and extras of everything. One thing that this Type A loved: everything was clearly labeled and there were zillions of hooks everywhere for clothes, hats, etc. The one hiccup (and this is likely user error) was the one room that read 2 bunks -- I thought that meant 2 bunk beds (4 beds) but in fact it is 1 bunk bed (2 twins) and 1 big pull out couch. Response to my questions were super fast. Hot tub was rad. Everything close by was a delight but truly nothing is better than having the ocean sing you too sleep every night. Loved staying here.

Our group of 7 (including 2 seniors) and 2 dogs thoroughly enjoyed our stay this past week. The property was amazing. We spent a ton of time outside on the various decks that surround the home. Can’t wait to come back!

Nicely located property for our family getaway with six adults, four children and two dogs. We loved the fenced yard so the children and dogs could play without the adults being worried. Nice ocean views from the main deck but beautiful views from the upper deck and observation platform. Everybody wants to stay at this property again!

This worked out fantastically for 8 adults to hang out and enjoy the beautiful space and views. Plenty of common space and private space when needed. Everything we needed for a long weekend!

This VRBO was everything we expected! Great location, clean, plenty of spaces to spread out and plenty of spaces to gather together. Having our dog with us made it extra special for us. Happily come back and stay again.

a spacious and lovely house for our group of 3 families, reuniting post-vaccination for the first time in over a year. plenty of space to settle in, relax, play, eat, be outdoors... we loved the hot & cold pools, the tree house, the proximity to beaches and the sounds of the waves in quiet moments at night or in the morning. a few issues came up but the host was responsive and remedied them. would absolutely book again!

We loved this house! Kitchen was stocked with all our needs, including a paella pan! Hot tub and cold tub were amazing. Views from every room we’re stunning! We are excited to come back soon!

Our family of 11 and two large dogs had the best time in this house! There is more then enough room with lots of beds and portable beds. The views from the house and especially of the deck are fantastic! No beach access, but if you love the sound of crashing waves you will not be disappointed. The house is more like a compound, once you close the gates on the driveway, your are in your own paradise and your dogs can run free as well as the kids and you know they are safe (providing they are not small dogs or jumpers! ) The owners provide all essentials, paper towels, toilet paper, lotions, dish/ dishwasher soap, shower essentials, laundry detergent. Towels, extra blankets The kitchen is well stocked with spices and equipment. The table sits at least 10 and they also have a super large picnic table just outside, and It’s honestly the best stocked kitchen for a rental. The hot tub was a highlight for sure. I would be more then happy to rent this house again and again! Hoping to go back next year!

Really enjoyed our 5 night stay with family. Hot tub, decks, views, and location make this place perfect for a relaxing vacation.

This property is serene and my favorite moments were having breakfast with a view of the river and ocean as well as nights on the porch for stargazing. That said, there were so many other great parts to this property. The layout provided everyone a little personal space and there were swings and tree forts for the kids. Actually, they were where the adults would watch whales spouting in the ocean, really whole family tree forts. The local beaches are short drives away and the markets are close enough to walk to. The property itself is well maintained and beautiful, covered in flowers. I can't say enough about how perfect the stay was!

We can't say enough good things about our stay. The house itself was perfect for our group: plenty of room for everyone to have their own space, but lots of gathering places as well. We spent most of our time outside on the deck, up in the tree platform taking in the spectacular view, and of course, in the wonderful hot tub. The kids spent hours on the swings. Perfect location for exploring Gualala, with everything we needed within walking distance. Can't wait to stay here again. Gracious hosts and easy communication made everything a breeze. Thank you for everything, Judy!

This was an incredible custom home in a charming small community. We loved every minute of our April stay, and highly recommend this for a gathering of family or friends. We used the jacuzzi and tree swings (and the tree house!) daily. Our only note is that the house does not connect to walking trails easily as some commenters suggested - you need to drive to the beach up north a few miles , or go south to the regional park or the public walkway at Sea Ranch . All are beautiful and welcome to dogs, and they loved them! We highly recommend staying here!

Well appointed home in lovely Gualala. Ideal for families who include canine companions. Large, clean, comfortable for everyone. Saline hot soak is perfection. Kitchen is very stocked and ideal for entertaining. Amenities exactly as described. Host was kind, flexible, and accommodating. My only hesitation is letting others know about it, and it not being available to us. Our heartfelt gratitude to the hosts for providing a home for our celebration.

We had a wonderful stay, the house was everything and more than we were hoping. It is a great design for social gatherings. The property is private and very well kept. It was perfect for the dogs too! I could see it being a lot of fun and safe for kids. The kitchen is super nice, and stocked with everything you could think to need.
