Looking for a casual Northern California rental with great ocean views? Look no further than Rainbow's End, a charming Sea Ranch home newly renovated with an expanded kitchen and master bath, and offering a private hot tub and dog-friendly accommodations not far from Black Point Beach. Whether traveling with friends or family, you won't find a more perfect getaway for relaxation and outdoor recreation!

This Northern California vacation rental is located in The Sea Ranch, a unique community in just south of Gualala and about 50 miles south of Mendocino. Guests of all ages will love spending days walking along the Bluff Trail and down to the beach or even walking to the Sea Ranch Lodge for a glass of wine on a sunny afternoon. When you're ready to spend long days along the surf, Black Point Beach is also a short walk from home.

Beach-inspired decor and wood paneling offer a laid-back environment to the house, making it the ultimate family getaway. The open floor plan is perfect for entertaining and features a family room and fully stocked kitchen (including a dishwasher), each with fantastic views overlooking the meadow and ocean. Bring a good book and iced tea for afternoons reading in a chaise lounge on the deck, or pack a picnic basket for the beach!

The nearby Surf Market and Gualala Supermarket will keep your cupboards full and let you treat guests to home cooked meals. At mealtimes, gather around the dining table with seating for six, or take the feast outdoors. Sunshine and the fresh ocean breeze will draw your group outside for a barbecue on the large front deck and into the hot tub by night fall. Don't feel like cooking? Dine at Black Point Grill located in Sea Ranch Lodge. You can even pick up a souvenir after dinner for loved ones back home.

Rainbow's End features four bedrooms, two full baths, and laundry facilities. Six guests will comfortably share the space, choosing from a king or queen suite downstairs, or two twin suites in the loft. When not exploring the Bluff Trail or beaches, relax at home with a movie on cable or DVD.

The Sea Ranch is great for active groups! Bring your clubs to spend days on the green at the Sea Ranch Golf Links, or lace up your walking shoes and explore the bluff lined trails. Nearby Stewarts Point State Marine Conservation Area and Salt Point State Park feature rugged terrain and breathtaking ocean vistas for your travels. Your four-legged friend will love playing fetch on the beach as one dog is welcome here!

After a long day outdoors, you'll love soaking in your private hot tub! Nearby Gualala is a popular community for artists - wander through art exhibits at Studio 391 in Cypress Village. Further north, the Mendocino Coast offers breathtaking sights and lighthouses including Point Cabrillo and Point Arena.

Whether you seek a thrilling adventure, or a quiet retreat along the Northern California Coast, Rainbow's End at Sea Ranch is the perfect hideaway!

Beautiful, neat getaway

My wife and I stayed here for our wedding at the Sea Ranch Lodge, and we were very pleased with our stay. The community is stunning and quiet while the home is cozy and functional. So glad we found this home, and we hope to be back for future anniversaries:)

Beautiful House

The pictures do not do it justice. It is a beautiful home. Has everything you need minus your food and clothes. It is a 5 minute walk to the bluffs and 5 minutes to the outdoor heated pool. The kids had a great time. We will come back again!

Rainbow End Review

The view from deck was awesome. Access to Blackpoint beach was a good walk. The staircase down to beach was great on the thighs, nice beach too. The house was quaint. The photos were nice to look at on walls.

Relaxing Stay

Our stay was a short one but very enjoyable at Rainbow’s End. Excellent location- close to the Bluff Trail. The kitchen was very well appointed including spices. The master bedroom bed was very comfortable. Very clean. We will be back hopefully for a longer stay!

Good property

The house and view are beautiful. Would have given five stars, but there were ants throughout the house and I found a tick inside. It is a rustic area, but that is Sea Ranch in general. Otherwise, there was plenty of firewood available to keep the house warm. The property manager was very responsive. The views were amazing of the ocean!

Spectacular view at the sky full of stars from hot tub

This house is comfortable for a unperturbed stay: breakfast at the terrace with the first sunbeams in the morning, a long walk along the beach, a great cooking in the fully equipped kitchen, dinner in the cozy living room and a relaxing in the hot tub with sunset and afterwards the view at the sky full of stars. It’s perfect.

Suggestions

The only (small) complaint we have is that we called beforehand, inquired about condiments and spices and were told there was none. In fact, the unit was amply supplied with spices and other pantry items. You should perhaps also inform guests that the unit is equipped with a coffee maker.

Wonderful get away

The house is just the right size for a family of 4 and has practical, comfortable furniture. We didn't use the upstairs bedrooms, but if i come again with my grandchildren, I think it would be a cozy spot for them. The spiral staircase might be difficult for older people to use if balance is an issue. Overall, we loved our stay and would book again.

Great Location!

This home has a great location, walking distance to beach and lodge. The home has an amazing view from the living room, we even caught a glimpse of some whales. The house was clean, but furniture and amenities were older. Kitchen needed some restocking (no salt or pepper or olive oil). Also, it would have been nice to have a few extra towels. Silverware was lacking in sufficient quantity for our family size. That said, we did enjoy the stay and it was very peaceful, and priced well.

Great budget and family/pet friendly option!

Nice layout, comfortable, very nice king bed Suite. Nice size overall and nice kitchen size. It’s very close to the highway, so not as quiet as some places. They need to replace or sharpen the knives, and replace/freshen some of the spices/pepper, etc. ;)

Great stay, but…

We really loved staying here - great location, home located on a cozy lot. Road noise absolutely a non-issue. But, the living room couch is not comfortable. Same with the light colored leather chair, almost as if someone was pulling a prank on us. You want to be an able to relax and enjoy the gorgeous scenery/setting after a long day. Also upstairs beds are not updated, squeaky, and uncomfortable. If you get this house at the cheaper rate, then it’s a thumbs up. Had we paid premium for it, I might be upset. Everything else was great.

Great place. Vacasa is so-so

Overall, we loved this place. Clean, simple and functional. It was close to the pool and we didn't notice the road noise. We had some issues dealing with vacasa which want surprising but annoying none the less.
