Dog-friendly home with ocean & golf views

Whispering Wave

Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

You'll find ease, comfort, and tranquility at this two-bedroom Sea Ranch home, a sunny, dog-friendly escape with a private hot tub, lovely views of the ocean and the adjacent golf course.

This bright, single-level home is located at the beautiful north end of Sea Ranch, right on the western boundary of the Sea Ranch Golf Links. Walk a few minutes down the road to watch the waves crash at Gualala Point, take morning hikes along the oceanfront Bluff Trail, and look for passing whales at Gualala Point Regional Park.

Seemingly designed for a romantic weekend or a couples' retreat, this home is an open, sun-filled space for enjoying the wild Northern California Coast. Wake up each morning to read the newspaper in the warmth of the wood-burning fireplace (logs are provided), prepare freshly ground coffee and homemade waffles in the kitchen (with a dishwasher), and gather around the dining table to admire the views and use the free WiFi to post photos of the morning's sunrise.

Hit the links at the neighboring golf course, visit the Del Mar Recreation Center to practice your tennis serve and recuperate in the sauna, or simply curl up with a good book in an Adirondack chair on the deck. Keep an eye open for harbor seals as you walk your dogs on the Bluff Trail (please note that a two-dog maximum applies), and come home to soak in the private hot tub, toss your bathing suits in the washer/dryer, and gather in the living room for a night of cable, HBO, DVD, and Blu-ray favorites on the flatscreen TV.

The magic of Sea Ranch will be right outside your door - book your escape to the pearl of the Northern California Coast today!

Excellent location and very clean and comfortable

The home is superb -- easy access from CA1, clean, one-story, nice views of the Sea Ranch meadow and cypresses toward the ocean. And easy access to Gualala and Pt. Arena, that are both well well worth visiting.

Great for a solo getaway

I enjoyed a long weekend with my dog in this quaint home in a great location. Several easy access points to the coastal trail. The house had a few cleanliness issues but overall, it was a good experience.

great

some problems found. - smoke alarm was pulled out of the wall - hole in the screen in the front window - fan in the attached bathroom didn't work - toiliet in the attached bathroom sometimes stuck and the tank didn't fill. Just needed a bump to get it to go. probably WD-40 would fix it. Nice location, easy access to Gualala

Nice Place to enjoy Sea Ranch

If you are looking for a smaller house to rent in Sea Ranch. Consider Whispeing Wave. It is perfect for four people and a canine friend. The Bluff Trail is just a five minute walk from the house, We love watching the deer come and go. The town of Gualala is just a short drive away, All in all a great cozy getaway to experience the beauty for Sea Ranch.

Nice place, great for a family

We had a great time at this rental, with a cute little 2 person hot tub and the ability to bring our pooches. There were 4 of us plus the dogs and we enjoyed our time at Sea Ranch, with nice walks on the beaches and beautiful sunsets. The cabin was clean and managed well and had everything we needed to make meals and enjoy ourselves. I think the common room was a perfect size for relaxing with the family. A couple of foxes and their kits lived across the street in some bushes and they would come by on occasion. Deer were everywhere and 2 racoons came by the back porch at night to say hi as I was trying to set up my telescope. They definitely got my attention :). Finally, I left my work laptop there which I cannot live without and was able to successfully recover it because the management company found it and kept it safe. This means a lot to me and I very much appreciate their help in this! All in all, it was a great trip with some good memories.

Dirty dishes

The dishes in the cabinet had particles of dried food on them, the dishwasher does not clean. There was food in the bottom of the dishwasher the first time we tried to use it. After we checked out I called and complained about it to the receptionist who laughed. I did not find having to soak and wash all the "Clean" dishes amusing. Dirty under the beds and the lint filter in the dryer was full.

Comfortable, clean and bright

Perfect little house for 2 people plus a pup. Clean and bright. Quiet with a small patio on overlooking meadow behind the house. Plenty of towels and kitchen gear. Comfortable beds. Washer and dryer were handy and the hot water was hot! Would definitely return.

Relaxing Weekend

1. Extremely clean 2. Great location - a short walk to coast trail for epic morning and evening dog walks 3. Wonderful natural light - sunny and bright, made even lounging on deck and in living room a peaceful activity. Also loved the peekaboo ocean views and sound of the ocean.

Great location

The location is great, close to walking trails. The kitchen is well equipped for cooking in the unit. On the flip side the dishwasher is falling apart a bit, the mattress in the main bedroom is worn out. The shower still leaks as mentioned in previous reviews. We found some surprises under the sofa and while looking for electrical outlets, a thorough cleaning is needed. Management is poor. After scribbling on our paperwork what looked like 11 am check out, we found out last minute check out is at 10 am. We were not given the courtesy of a 11 am checkout, "not possible". 3 hours later no cleaners had touched the house.

Wonderful 2 bed 2 bath

I booked this place to spend time with my parents. They are retired so this place was perfect. I worked during the day ( the internet was great, no issues) and they were able to walk the bluff trails, go to the pool and read their books by the fire. The chairs in the living room are really comfy. Couch is a bit old and a bit uncomfortable but does the trick. Kitchen is very well equipped. My mom loves to cook and had everything she needed. We even made pizza. Highly recommend a hot tub under the stars and moon. Sea Ranch is a magical little community.

Whispering Wave was a perfect getaway for 2 people and 2 dogs. Clean, well-appointed, and very close to several trails leading to the bluffs.

Relaxing 5 Night Stay

The house was in a great location, a short walk to the Bluff Trail and Gualala Point Park. It also backed up to the golf course, which was convenient since we played golf twice. We brought our 2 dogs, and the 4 of us enjoyed numerous walks. The hot tub was nicely maintained and added bonus. We highly recommend this house!

Great Place

This is our second time staying here. It is the perfect house for two people, Very comfortable. My husband and I like its proximity to Gualala and the fact that you can walk to the state park from the house along the coastal bluff trail. Love watching all the deer in the meadow in the backyard. We will return in the fall.

We loved everything about Whispering Wave. It was open and airy, very nicely decorated with very nice artwork. The kitchen was well appointed and lacked for nothing. Hearing the waves in the distance crashing on the rocks at night, made for a relaxing night's sleep. When we booked this property back in June, little did we know that the night before we were scheduled to arrive, we had to evacuate our house in Santa Rosa due to the Glass Fire. We spent that night in Oakland and arrived at Whispering Wave the next day for our stay. We were so fortunate to have this place to go to.No smoky air in Sea Ranch. Our house survived thankfully. We cannot wait to return to Whispering Wave.
