Great place, great view!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Just arrived home from our 3 night trip at The Sea Ranch! What a beautiful spot! The Gray Whale was perfect for our family of 6. The views from the house are spectacular! Two of the rooms have beautiful ocean views and the other has a meadow view with deer roaming every morning and evening. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed. its a quick walk from the deck to the coastal trail which winds along the bluffs. So much beauty! The deck was my favorite part to watch the sunset with a glass of wine. One night we watched the sunset from the hot tub! We highly recommend The Gray Whale and can't wait to go back!

The house was well designed with beds and baths on separate sides of living room/kitchen, Ample storage space for a week's supply of cooking ingredients. Great views of the ocean.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a wonderful anniversary get-away in Sea Ranch. Great location close to hiking trails and the ocean. Locked ourselves out the first night but Beach Rentals got us back in within minutes. So nice they let us vacation with our dogs. The kitchen had every pot, pan, tool and appliance you could want. Very nice home away from home.

July at Gray Whale

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Very courteous and helpful staff. The house is in a great location but sadly in need of updating. The kitchen had roaches which once discovered made us want to leave. We should have asked to be moved but accepted a very small discount. We would not stay here again

We lan on visiting the Grey Whale again!
