Hand built, redwood home on forty acres, above the ocean. Immense dark night sky. Private and quiet . Centered between Gualala and Point Arena, off Hwy 1 on a gravel road. Our large, rustic, six bedroom three bathroom house. Surrounded by flower gardens, fruit trees, herbs. High speed WiFi . Get away from city life. Huge farm kitchen with a wood fired bread oven. Lg. redwood table is the heart of the farm. Additional cabins included w/ large groups or rented separately.

The space
Our off grid, sustainable, hand built house, out of wood from our land is very special. Built on a forty acre organic permaculture fruit and flower farm. Secluded w/large acreage all around it, yet close to beaches, stores and restaurants. Hear the waves and seals . See the immense star filled sky at night . Close to Gualala and Point Arena. Stornetta Lands, hiking, kayaking, river swimming and surfing.
Great for family get togethers and work retreats, quiet gatherings.
Knotty pine interiors, log and beam rustic style construction . Huge living spaces. Comfortable wood fired stoves heat one house, gas fireplace in main house. Wood milled from trees on the farm/ homestead have been used in all the construction. Three hand made bathrooms, beautiful slate and travertine, walk in shower, soaking tub, a large concrete shower .
Your rental is the main house with six bedrooms and bunk beds. Cabins are additional or If you have more than fourteen guests you get an additional cabin, at sixteen guests you get the second cabin if it’s available. These may be rented by others during your stay, but they do not share anything but the gardens with you.
The fully equipped, off grid kitchen is a dream for chefs and families. Help yourself to fruit and herbs from the garden during your stay. I can fire the large bread oven for your stay for a $50 fee, or it’s fired in the winter months for heat. The temp varies from 800-200F over four to five days . To be used for many things, pizza on the first night when it’s the hottest, or steaks and chops at that temp, roasted veggies, roasts, smoking, even cakes and pies are the temp drops. Please drink our good well water, it’s tested annually.
If you are hosting a winter retreat here or a group working that needs to have the houses kept abnormally warm, there will be an additional fee for heat.
Organic Fruit and Flower Farm surrounds the houses with outdoor seating areas and beautiful gardens you are welcome to enjoy. Have a fire in the fire pit, depending on it being a fire safe day, cannot be left unattended, needs to be well put out, wood is $10 a bundle. We are only a quarter mile above the ocean. Off a gravel road, close to Gualala and Point Arena, Stornetta lands, and surrounded by large acreage parcels.
I live on the property, I stay in a cabin a distance away, not visible . I work in the gardens and tend the plants. We can help tend fires or help with the brick oven if needed. Not really suited to children under two. Guests realize in booking this home that there are dangers and liabilities in the country. They take full responsibility for their actions and the actions of their guests while they are here. Currently Airbnb allows last minute cancellations if even one guest has a positive Covid test. I can’t rebook quickly for groups, this space supports my farm. I cannot honor that Airbnb policy. Any last minute cancellations will follow my strict cancellation policy. I might be willing to move a reservation if more than three to four weeks out. Thank you.
