About this property

Best Value at Sea Ranch Oceanside

When you arrive at Hedgegate, you'll immediately feel right at home in this beautifully decorated ocean view home. For one thing, the furniture is stylish and comfortable. Throughout the house you'll find enjoyable art from around the world and original local art; the kitchen is fully stocked with just about everything you might imagine for meal preparation right down to the olive oil, and service for eight. An extensive video & music library ,board games are more than adequate for everyone, unless of course you would rather just sit on the deck and enjoy the great outdoors which is located right outside in all directions. With an ocean view from the hot tub that's always ready you'll enjoy the scenery and view no matter what weather's on the horizon.

This was our third time at this house. It’s perfect for my husband and I. It is in a quiet cul-de-sac. The house is well stocked and clean. HAWLEY is a wonderful host. She checks on us during our stay to make sure everything is going well. We plan to stay again next year.

Wonderful Stay

Lovely, well-appointed home in a great location. Easy walk to the beach and bluffs. The house was immaculately clean, comfortable, and situated on a quiet cul-de-sac with serene views towards the sea and sunset. Plenty of outdoor seating on the deck to grill and enjoy a meal together. The host has thoughtfully provided everything needed for a relaxing stay and communication was excellent. We loved our time at this beautiful Sea Ranch home. Truly a wonderful get-away!

Wonderful Weekend in Sea Ranch

We had such a lovely time at Hawley’s home! It was so beautiful and comfortable and had everything we needed and more. Added bonuses were the ocean view and access to Sea Ranch facilities, including pickleball courts, pools, and trails. Thank you, Hawley!

Wonderful stay!

We have stayed at this home a few times for a reason! The location on the cul de sac gives you a huge yard and beautiful views. The kitchen is well stocked, beds are comfy and the hot tub is the perfect ending to a day of walking. It’s close to Gualala too which makes it nice if you need to head into the store. We’ll absolutely be back! Thank you Hawley for another perfect stay.

Great Place, Great Value

Just completed my 3rd stay at this place and I am as happy as I have ever been. The house is great and well maintained and equiped. Lots of attention to detail on what a vacation renter will need. The view is fantastic and the area is very quiet. I would recommend this place.

Beautiful and Relaxing

We’ve stayed at Hawley’s home multiple times and always have such an enjoyable time! Her home sits at the end of cul de sac that feels private. The home has fantastic views of the ocean and has enough space to relax and enjoy the view from not only the outside but also from the inside. The house feels welcoming and inviting with just enough room for everyone to spread out and be comfortable. Her home is a gem and we look forward to coming back!

Comfortable welcoming

This our first visit to this home. We had four adults and the size was perfect. By far the best stocked home we’ve stayed at and we have stayed in many . The decks were ample and had good views. The only problem we had was missing screens and inability of using the sliding glass door in the front bedroom. The owner was very helpful and pleasant. Overall, great home!

About the host

Hosted by Hawley Holmes

Host profile image
If I didn't enjoy my work as an art curator, I'd choose to live at this wonderful home we call Hedgegate House. Instead, I have chosen to share it with others who may enjoy it as much as I do.

Why they chose this property

The Sea Ranch on the Sonoma Coast is far enough away to get away and close enough to our daily life to make it possible more often than not. About 115 miles from San Francisco but a world away.......

What makes this property unique

Very Private Location at end of a cul-de-sac Four Miles to town and four miles to Sea Ranch Lodge. Walk to Shell Beach.......
Basically, the perfect location.
