The house is nice and on a very nice wooded property that is quiet and private and is pretty much as described in the listing. There are a couple of crows that were hanging around and a rabbit also paid a visit. The beach and river is only a short drive away. We stayed in the area last year in Anchor Bay and really enjoy the area. You will need to make sure to bring toiletries and some kitchen items like sauces and ketchup and some seasonings. Bring mosquito repellent, it may have been that the weather was even warmer than normal out this way, but there were a lot of mosquitoes in the evenings aside from the last night we were there as it was much cooler. There are some windows missing screens as is one of the sliders, we found a small fan that helped pull in cool air at night and there are ceiling fans, if it is going to be especially warm I recommend bringing a couple of extra fans. I'm sure normally it isn't as warm as it was while we were there so this may not be as much of a thought normally, the beach didn't even have any fog until the last day we were there. The price is reasonable and is on our list as a place to possibly visit again. Thanks again!

We truly enjoyed our time in Gualala! The cabin was clean, and big enough to fit our family. It definitely was fun exploring the surroundings.
The kitchen was fantastic for having family meals. It was super functional, and had a feel of old rustic farmhouse. Everything we needed for cooking was available. We were all able to be in the kitchen to help prep for breakfast and dinners.
The kids had a blast up on the loft upstairs. The beds were quite comfortable.
The big screen TV was awesome! The cell service was better at the house than in town.
Thank you for letting us rent your place for our weekend adventure. It was incredible and we all decided to make it an annual summer tradition to come back. Next time, it’ll be longer than just 3 nights!

My family (10 of us): including my older parents that stayed in the master suite, which was great and easy for them. I did read that there was not much privacy in the loft area, which is really not that big of a deal. There are 4 beds upstairs with 2 semi-private bedrooms, which was fine for us. We had a wide array of ages for children from 9 down to 18 months with us and it was perfect for our kids. The pictures on the site do not do the beauty of this place any justice. Absolutely beautiful property. We went in July and it was shorts and short sleeve weather at the property. A little colder as we got closer to the coast. Perfect distance to beach/water/ocean access. We were familiar with the area already and this location is just perfect. We brought a lot of our own toiletries and other stuff, but the place was fully stocked with everything. And there IS Wi-Fi in the house which is great for the kids. There is also satellite TV. Fully stocked kitchen. Seriously, no complaints here. I would do this again without question. Thank you so much Karen. You were great with communication. I have an ill mother and young baby and asked for an early check in for them, which was accommodated. Perfect EVERYTHING! Don’t think about it…just get it. The price is right!

Very private and quite location. It is near enough to the road that you do hear a passing car here or there but not a busy road and the sound is serene, with a sound of wind pushing through the treed canyon confuses you that you are closer to the ocean than you are. Inside very open floor plan with the onlybprivacy the master bed and bath. Fire place for the heat and a couple portable heaters for extra as needed. Fire kept house very warm. Nice kitchen, updated appliances. Beds were comfortable. Dryer was broke at the time of our stay but owner was made aware. There are no curtains anywhere in the house accept for the master bedroom, which lends to nice view of the setting every where in the house. Its a great place for a family with kids. The kids have a great area to explore and play out side. Would choose an ocen view location as well, however, the privacy of this home is definately unique and close enough to the twom and a few beachs. Would definately go back again.

This place is well preserved and shows a lot of love put into the grounds. We did notice that the dryer was not hooked up to the gas line and the exhaust was not working as well.
Kind of a big deal if you have a family
Maybe that can be repaire easily as we want to bring our Family up next time. Beauty out every window, peace and quiet and plenty of room to roam.. AWESOME STAY

This place was perfect for my family. We were comfortable and although this was during a record heat wave, the cabin stayed nice and cool all day. The queen beds upstairs were very comfortable and the view from up there is great.

Property is beautiful and secluded, house was fine. All who slept on loft beds said they were very comfortable. The main bedroom mattress was a little hard, but not bad. Did not give five stars because there are no curtains in the house other than some very thin ones in main bedroom, including the very visible bathroom window. Also lacked any toiletries that all of my other VRBO homes have had (shampoo and soap). I would stay here again and do recommend it, but would just bring an eye mask and plenty of toiletries next time.

Great private forested location with easy access. Large kitchen and dining area and comfortable living room. Lots of windows to enjoy the redwoods. The wood burning stove kept us plenty warm.
5.0
This house is in a redwood glade. The wood stove does a nice job of keeping the house warm. You need skills to build a fire. There is no kindling, so you collect twigs from the property.
There is a full kitchen. Tv screen is huge. It has a lovely vista of the redwoods. It is a short drive to ocean and hiking at Sea Ranch. The ocean is beautiful.. Mendocino is more of a drive, but it is doable. We enjoyed our stay.

This is an amazing and rustic gem in the redwoods above Gualala. The cabin is well furnished with a spacious layout. It easily accommodated our group of 6 adults although there is only one totally private bedroom. There are 3 other queen beds in an upstairs loft open to the living room. This is not a polished modern house like you might fund in SeaRanch but was perfect for our gathering.

Lovely location close to town of Gualala and all the free walking trails of Sea Ranch.We had the best fall weather crisp cool nights and sunshiny warm days. Cabin is a lovely mix of rustic, quirky and modern where you want, bathrooms and kitchen.Overall a great midweek getaway.

Lovely cabin in the woods. Spend a lot of time on the porch. We did have to buy dish soap as there was only a dab. Both baths are downstairs and the is quite a step up to the Master bedroom. Kitchen is vey nicely equipped and beds are comfy. Wood definitely stay again !

Had a wonderful stay at the McNichol residence. It was close enough, but not too close, to the coast and Gualala business establishments. The house was very nice. The garden and meadow were fabulous for waffle ball by day and star gazing by night.

Gualala private getaway
The property is on the ridge above Gualala. Located down a long flat gravel drive well off the road in the woods. Lovely large two story home converted from a barn long ago. On a meadow with couple of walking trails leading into the wooded property. Modern kitchen with lots of cookware and dishes with a comfortable dining area that could seat 10. Large living room with big sectional sofa, reclining chairs and large screen TV (We didn't use it because we were too busy hiking, eating, playing games and talking!) The beds were comfortable. Plenty of hot water. As advertised the only heat was the wood burning stove which once going good could put out a lot of heat. We have been coming to area for many years and would rent this property again.

Rapidly became a favorite get away spot
Our second time staying here. Kids and dogs love playing in the meadow and with the beaches relatively close it just works out so well. House as always is charming, clean, and well stocked with kitchen supplies. We plan to return next summer.

Secluded Redwood private property on the coast
I walked up the front steps and it smelled like my grandma's house. Such a warm, welcoming feeling full of happy memories. Romantic-Rustic is a good description of this home with the custom wood trim touches throughout the residence.
This was a good fit for us because we love space, redwood trees, quite and a wood burning stove with LOTS of wood. The fenced in back area was so perfect for our lil dogs and a big plus!
Note: if you are not familiar with using a wood burning stove/fireplace as your main source heat- here are a couple of tips. #1 Start out big (kindle gets going then add up to 4 logs)#2 Keep going with about 3 logs burning at one time for good heat #3 Keep burning throughout the night (get up to pee- toss a log on- only one...because your fire is cooler and if you add more, you'll put it out.) Good luck!

Magic meadow
Young family of 4 plus grandma spent two nights here. Lots of fun exploring the property and the house. Even used the stove for heat since the fog rolled in. House was well equipped and comfortable and a short drive to town and beach. Overall lovely!

Family gathering
This property was perfect for our family of 8. This property was easy to be on & relax with an 11, 8, 7, 5 yr old without worry that they were going to break or damage something. We spent a lot of our family time here. I love the outside garden area with blackberries in season for us. It needs attention but still beautiful. There is an awesome walk through the redwood forest which was perfect for me, the grandmother, in the mornings & evenings as a get away. The kitchen is fully stocked of most needed items. My daughters thought it needed a dishwasher. It would be great if the master bath had some some hooks for hanging towels. The master bedroom is the only private space. The other bedroom space which has 4 beds is in a loft setting with no privacy from the rest of the house. The grocery store is maybe 15 min & many beach options close by. It looks like there is some renovation going on with the property. I loved it! I would return again. The owner was very accommodating with our check out time. The step going out the sliding glass door should be repaired for safety. It was very hard for me as a 64 year old. Thank you again for sharing your home with us.
