The property was beautiful, all the things we needed were available. Stunning views, and such a beautiful time to go, as it was sunny all weekend. Great place for a romantic weekend. Just be prepared for lots of stairs. Otherwise, lovely place to stay.
Very nicely furnished home. Quiet with great views. One thing to note is there are multiple levels so lots of stairs to deal with. Garage was very clean and bbq worked great. Nice appliances and everything worked well. A very nice place to stay and relax.
We absolutely loved this place. It was perfectly situated in the forest with a view of and short walk to the coast. It was also centrally located in the middle of the Sea Ranch property between the Lodge and town. Our family was able to relax in style with the great floorplan, hot tub, and luxury amenities. It was tastefully decorated as well. We'll be back!

This is a really special property. It's located on the hillside, not on the meadow, but with its elevation, the views are stupendous and constantly changing. We have stayed at the house many times over at least 10 years and it suits us perfectly. My only complaint (which was passed on to the rental company) is that the Sonos speaker is difficult (read: impossible) to access without going through a bunch of steps that shouldn't be required. How about a simple bluetooth speaker that can be easily connected to by both Apple and Android phones? My advice in the meantime: bring your own bluetooth speaker if you want to listen to music.

Really a great place. Beautiful view, surrounded by trees (except for the view). Fully stocked kitchen. Hot tub worked great. Great, quiet neighborhood, trails within walking distance. The split level aspect makes private spaces available, but all within earshot of your travel mates. Would definitely recommend and would stay again.

The hillside Deerfield home was a magical retreat. In the area to help a friend with her son's wedding, this home provided all the comfort and relaxation needed to recharge for the next event. From the hot tub to the well equipped kitchen it was everything! The serene home also gave an amazing view of the ocean. The home also had a modern but oh so comfy vibe. Would recommend this home to anyone. Hopefully I will be back too!

Deerfield is a very cozy home with many areas to lounge, comfy furniture and throws. A small but efficient kitchen (although we could not figure out the microwave, perhaps a cheat sheet for this appliance?)Also the Primary bedroom is lofted with an open window so living room & kitchen noise can be heard up top. Despite these small concerns we would definitely stay in this house again. And Beach Rentals provided top-notch customer service.

We've been coming to this house at least once a year for a very long time. This was our first time back since the pandemic. Our visit was as perfect as ever. The location, the view (sunsets into the ocean!), plus turkeys(!). The quality furnishings and art. The house is comfortable and welcoming. Our home away from home.

I consider Deerfield to be my seaside getaway when I need a break from the routines of everyday life. It’s quiet, clean, very comfortable and has that element of sophistication that I appreciate. It’s my treat to myself.
This place is stunning. Views at every window and deck. The house is well maintained and stocked with all you need for a stress less stay. We will be back again,

Reviewer Comments:
This was our first time staying at this house. A beautiful, well maintained residence with sweeping views of the water while being surrounded by coastal redwoods. The downside of staying in a hillside home is having to drive everywhere if you want to walk or hike but it's very close to Shell Beach from this property so just a few minutes away. The only issue we had was the coffeemaker which kept shutting off partway through the brew cycle so we gave up after a couple of tries and just used the French press. This issue was reported to Beach Rentals so hopefully the owner is quickly able to replace the appliance. Having owners manuals available for all the small appliances (including the microwave) would be helpful. Overall, a beautiful home and we always enjoy our visits to the Sea Ranch!

The property was very nice, well kept and clean. It was not a good choice for me however, as I have some balance and mobility problems. There were too many stairs and the furniture was too low. I did not think a split level would be 3 stories, I thought main floor, few stairs up for one area, a few down for other area. It is ideal for two couples wanting their own space.

We rented this home for our extended family who were visiting for the holidays (we live next door). We picked up the key and my husband and I decided to make sure the house was ready for our family. In the process, I somehow lost my footing on the stairs coming down from the master bedroom. Ambulance ride to Santa Rosa, 2 nights in the hospital, surgery to fix my badly broken ankle, then home late on Christmas Day ( now months of rehab). I only pass this along as a warning to future renters regarding this particular staircase( there are many in this home). Also but less serious, my son and his wife reported that the master bedroom mattress was quite uncomfy (“old mattress feeling”). Seems like a cozy home otherwise but doubt I’ll ever enter the doors again😢

Our stay in Deerfield was one of the most wonderful vacations we have ever had. The home is absolutely delightful. We called it our tree house with a view. Settled among some of the larger redwood trees at Sea Ranch, the home exudes warmth. All the walls are covered in wood, and the setting sun reflects off the redwoods and the walls to create the most beautiful feeling each night. There is a view from the main living area down to the ocean. Trails surround the property and getting to either Gualala or the Lodge is easy.The home is in impeccable condition. The furnishings are magnificent, including quite a few beautiful pieces of mid-century modern. The lighting is also elegant and creates beautiful moods in each of the rooms at night. The kitchen is completely furnished with high-end cookware, appliances, Placewares and everything you will need. The upper bedroom is one of the most beautiful places I have ever stayed. Lying on the bed you can look down to the ocean - seeing what weather the day may bring each morning. The linens were exquisite- extremely soft sheets, towels, and a great selection of pillows. The hot tub is convenient and lovely, set among the redwood trees. There were just two of us, but it would be a delightful rental for three or four, as there is a second bedroom at the lower level . Beach Rental Agency does a fabulous job presenting a clean and well equipped home for your stay. It is rare I rave about a rental property as much as I have Deerfield, but this property is unique. It was one of the most perfect places I have ever stayed. I have already recommended it to several friends.....

We loved staying at this beautiful Sea Ranch home! I give it 5 stars because it was extremely clean, probably the cleanest rental property I’ve ever stayed at and also very comfortable. The owner was very thoughtful in having extra things we needed around the house. They had different teas and olive oil, salt pepper, etc. Everything was very thought out. Everything was perfect. My only two suggestions are to perhaps in the future try to get a bigger spa and if I brought children, I would be nervous of them on the white carpet. Other than that, it’s a beautiful updated house with that Sea Ranch feel. We loved staying here and would again in a heart beat. Thank you for everything!
