Vacation Rental Description

The Sea Ranch is internationally known and revered for its attempt 
to blend man-made structures with their natural setting. This most 
picturesque northern California area, 100 miles north of San 
Francisco dotted with distinctive homes, spreads for about ten miles 
on either side of Highway One in the coastal Sonoma County of 
California. The building design is unique in its architecture, and 
the challenge to "live lightly on the land" is on-going.

The "Honeymoon Cottage" was designed by William Turnbull, a member 
of the original group of UC Berkeley architects who worked on The 
Sea Ranch. It exemplifies their philosophy for blending buildings 
with their natural setting and atmosphere. 
The cottage is of striking post and beam construction with rough 
hewn lumber. The furniture and decor throughout the home are 
designed with a blend of bright, warm colors accentuating the wooden 
interior. For your convenience a writing/computer desk has been 
added recently. 
The "Honeymoon Cottage" has a living space with very high ceilings 
and upstairs bedroom loft. 
It is well suited to the unique Linkwitz Lab Orion+ loudspeaker 
system that is set up in the cottage, and which has made it a 
destination for audiophiles who are searching for the best in sound 
reproduction. 

The "Honeymoon Cottage" belongs to a group of homes which border a 
large meadow that flows down towards the Pacific Ocean. A gentle 
stroll of 900 yards brings you across Highway One to the ocean 
shore. Behind the cottage begins the pine tree forested hillside 
with hiking trails and bicycle routes. The wide open meadow is a 
natural surrounding for deer, rabbits, wild turkeys and other birds 
of every kind. Relax in a lounge chair on the deck and watch the
wildlife move by or the large herd of sheep grazing. 

The ocean may be too cold for anything but wading due to its year-
round temperature of 55 F (13 C), but with three swimming pools, 
saunas, tennis courts, a golf course, and miles of hiking trails 
that meander along the coastal cliffs, through meadows and forests, 
there is no shortage of outdoor activity in the sunny yet temperate 
climate of Sea Ranch. Or, soak in the hot tub on the deck of the
"Honeymoon Cottage" with the view to the ocean and watch the sun set.

Even the occasional winter storms, with their high winds and driving 
rains, become an enjoyable experience when watched through the 
window, and comforted by the warmth from a crackling, air-tight wood 
stove, a good book and some snacks. The excellent Linkwitz Lab 
Orion+ sound system is an invitation to listen to your favorite CDs 
or even your iPod. These speakers have made the "Honeymoon Cottage" 
a destination for audiophiles seeking the best in accurate sound 
reproduction.
