Wake up each morning to the soothing sound of ocean waves when you escape to this three-bedroom Sea Ranch home, a dog-friendly property with a private hot tub, an expansive ocean-facing deck, and a stunning waterfront location.

Gorgeously situated to face the Pacific Ocean and the wondrous rugged cliffs of The Sea Ranch, this beautiful home is just steps from the Bluff Trail and one mile north of Black Point and the Sea Ranch Lodge. It's also only eight miles south of the Sea Ranch Golf Links, nine miles from the shops and restaurants of Gualala, and 28 miles from the Point Arena Lighthouse and Museum.

Wonderfully located near wild ocean beaches and quiet hiking trails, this property is ideal for groups of friends, families, and outdoor enthusiasts in search of gorgeous scenery and serene relaxation.

With paneled walls, hardwood floors, and soft leather furnishings, the living room is full of rustic atmosphere and plush comfort. Build a fire in the wood-burning stove as you watch the morning fog blanket the ocean, or use the telescope to search for passing grey whales, harbor seals, and dolphins.

The panoramic ocean views continue in the full kitchen, which features a large refrigerator, plentiful counterspace, and a dishwasher to take care of the clean-up. Sip your morning coffee by the window at the kitchen table, or share pancakes and bacon with your loved ones around the dining room table for six.

But nowhere are the views more magnificent than on the large ocean-facing deck, where guests can relax in Adirondack chairs, use the gas grill to prepare al fresco meals, and soak their sore hiking legs in the luxurious private hot tub. Swimming pools and tennis courts are also available at the Sea Ranch Del Mar, Ohlson, and Moonraker Recreation Centers.

With three bedrooms, two full bathrooms, and one half-bath, Bowsprit can accommodate as many as six people on your Sonoma County getaway. The master bedroom features a king-size bed, a wall of windows that frame the ocean, and a large flatscreen cable TV and DVD player. The two guest bedrooms offer a queen-size bed apiece.

One dog is also more than welcome to join you here - please be advised, however, that a small nightly fee applies.

After a day spent admiring the seasonal waterfall on Stengel Beach or exploring the tide pools of Shell Beach, you'll have a private washer/dryer for your salty clothes.

As one of the most understated and beautiful stretches of the Northern California Coast, Sea Ranch is a wonderful place to escape into nature. Walk among the local black-tailed deer as you hike the Bluff Trail, or play 18 scenic holes amid the cypress and pines at the Sea Ranch Golf Links.

This home is also just 58 miles south of Mendocino - the perfect day trip for those in search of a majestic coastal drive along California Highway 1.

The beauty of the Sea Ranch can be all yours - reserve your stay at this peaceful three-bedroom home today!
