About this house rental

As you exit the Highway and enter Goat Rock State Beach, you will be treated to jaw dropping vistas. Its no wonder that this scenic road has been featured in so many commercials!! Turn off the main beach access road onto a small gravel road to reach our cabin, which we call "Sea Nest".

You will love the wrap-around windows that provide expansive views of the Pacific Ocean, white water, Goat Rock State Beach, and the Russian River and its mouth. The rugged Pacific coastline is visible for miles, and expansive natural vistas await you in every direction. You will see glimpses of the picturesque town of Jenner, framed by the majestic green hills above the town.

A large deck invites you outdoors to experience the sights and sounds of this natural wonderland. Open all the blinds and enjoy the same views from the cozy interior of the two bedroom cabin. Visits from deer, rabbits, quail, and the occasional fox in the yard below are not uncommon. Soaring birds abound. Sunsets are magnificent. On clear nights, the star-filled skies are exceptional.

The cabin abuts State Parks open space and you will feel like you have a nature reserve to yourself as you gaze out over the fields and the ocean and river. Sea Nest is one of only a handful of houses within the Goat Rock State Beach area. The views from this property are simply inspirational.

The cabin itself is cozy and cute. The interior is bright and cheery, with abundant windows and natural light. The ceilings are vaulted, and there is a wood burning stove in the center of the cabin. The kitchen, dining, and living areas share space in an open floor plan. There are two bedrooms with queen beds and one bath.

Goat Rock State Beach has much to offer, all within walking distance: sandy beaches surrounded by dramatic cliffs; hiking trails; seabirds and harbor seals; and the Russian River. Amazing vistas are everywhere- from atop the cliffs, hiking along the Kortum trail, or from one of the two large beaches separated by massive Goat Rock. You may see colorful hand gliders floating peacefully over the cliffs, while surfers wait for their waves in the waters below.

Outside of the Park there is so much to explore in every direction. Take a short drive south to Bodega Bay, a quaint fishing town with shops, restaurants, and recreation areas. Alfred Hitchcock's "The Birds" was filmed here and in the nearby town of Bodega. Head north and you will be treated to one of the most scenic and dramatic sections of Highway One as you leave the quaint seaside village of Jenner. Visit Fort Ross State park or continue north to Gualala. Iconic Mendocino is 2.5 hours north. Or simply drive for a while and turn around- the drive itself is worth it!

Head east and explore the Russian River recreation area and the nearby towns of Jenner, Duncans Mills, Monte Rio, Occidental, and Guerneville. Start wine tasting 30 minutes away at Korbel, and explore the many wineries nearby in the Russian River wine region. Have lunch in the charming town of Healdsburg. Hike among the redwoods at Armstrong Woods State Park. Take a day trip to the world famous Napa valley. San Francisco is about 75 miles south and a little under 2 hours away.

There is so much to see and do in this part of California- you will not be bored! But if you seek rest and rejuvenation, Sea Nest is the perfect place to escape, unwind and relax! You may be inspired to write your novel.

Very cozy, clean, lovely views. Easy driving access to beach.Really enjoyed sitting on the deck watching the ocean.Our host, David, communicated well, and invited us to make contact if we needed help. We had no problems, so we didn't contact him. However, David's instructions were good if we needed them.Would definitely stay again!!!!!

Easy to check in. Beautiful view exactly as described. Awesome weather. Had a day of fog which was also beautiful. Fire/stove worked just fine for heating the place up. Could have used some kindling for starting fires easier was my only negative for the stay. :)Kitchen had everything i could need. beds were comfortable.

Location is amazing - you are a 5 minute walk from stunning sunset views over the Pacific. However do prepare to be very isolated. No cell service, no nearby gas, restaurants or grocery. Nearest grocery with limited selection 20 mins away by car. Bring fire wood! The electric heaters provided are not enough to heat the spaces on cold nights. This felt like a very DIY stay for the price paid. Starting, tending, and cleaning the fire/oven was a chore. I have to take off 2 stars for cleanliness and lack of address signage. Dust, dirt, wear and tear throughout the rental as noted by others. A chair was broken and unusable, knob fell off the TV console, towel bar fell off the holder in the bathroom. Dust and cobwebs everywhere. Black grime/dirt around the tiles on the shower. There is NO address sign for this property ANYWHERE. Be VERY CAREFUL where you drive and which roads you drive down. GPS is wrong and no address signs for this rental - AND there is a misleading address sign (says 9527 9529 - does that mean 9527 through 9529?) leading down another road - a man down that hill came running up to us screaming that we are TRESPASSING and we NEED TO LEAVE NOW - No he did not help us figure out where we need to go. A very simple sign from the hardware store on a post, with 9528 and an arrow pointing left would have saved us a very terrifying experience. With some basic fixes this could be a 5 star experience--hoping the owners take this feedback constructively as we intend it.
