An incredible location and family home

This home is one of the few in Sea Ranch that look to be owned and used by the same family for many years — we loved their homely touches and decor. The house is in the most incredible location at Sea Ranch, and is very comfortable. The house needs to update their bedframes (they are so loud that simply getting onto the bed would wake up our child in the room next door or downstairs!) and they are small double beds which is tricky for any adults over 5.5ft! The house also needs some deep cleaning — the couches and mats are stained from use and need to be reupholstered or cleaned. That being said, it is a beautiful home and in the most incredible spot in Sea Ranch and I'd highly recommend.

Great location in Sea Ranch!

The house was a little dated, but the location, scenery and deck looking out to the ocean completely made up for it! The beach was also only a short walk away. The check-in was super easy and it had all of the necessities stocked.

Great dog-friendly house

We had an enjoyable stay at the Thayer house this week. As other reviewers have noted, some of the decor is a bit dated, but it's nicely appointed and in a great location. I appreciated being able to bring our dog along on our trip.

cozy retreat

We really enjoyed our stay.l The house is well located, ; with a fantastic view of the ocean and just a short walk to the beach. It's a nice house, well stocked kitchen for making meals. The showers are weird -- no real shower head; some of us liked the resulting strong spray but it's not for everyone. The only real complaint was the livingroom furniture was not all that comfortable. Still all in all, a great place.

Love the rustic warm feel of the property. Close to the walking trails and small beach which was great with our dogs. You could hear the ocean waves throughout the day and night❤️ Brought our own spices and food to great family meals. Will be back again to relax and get away.

Great view, run down house

This is my second time trying to post this review, seems a little concerning that my first one didn’t post. Anyway, the view and location is amazing! However the house itself could use a little TLC. The beds are very old, and they’ve put a layer of foam on them to try and make it more comfortable. Everything is very creaky in this house, and it’s definitelt not for tall people. The shower hit me below my arm pit. For the price the view is pretty worth it, but they do make you pay a lot of extra fees. Two types of service fees and An additional rental fee is ridiculous, the totals of all these fees almost double the cost of the house to rent for a week.

property location is great. Only a few problems with the insides like AV system and bed frame

The management fee's and taxes were almost equal to the cost to rent the house for 4 nights. What's wrong with this picture Homeaway? There needs to be more upfront disclosure about total cost. Maybe, adjust them downward as well.

Lovely older home. Great ocean views!

The home was very comfortable! The home felt very well loved. Could use a little face lift. All was useable and the bed was very comfortable. The view was amazing! We enjoyed watching the sunsets. While we were there, we watched the Perseid Meteor Showers at night! There are so many millions of stars in the sky! So different than in the city! We had a very relaxing visit.
