2 guests1 bedroom1 bed1 full bath
Perched on 40 private acres above the Pacific Ocean, the Cob House offers a truly unique coastal farm stay experience unlike anything you'll find in a traditional vacation rental. Handcrafted with natural building techniques and surrounded by organic gardens, orchards, and open coastal landscape, this charming retreat invites guests to slow down, reconnect with nature, and experience the peaceful rhythm of off-grid living. Please note: There is no wifi or power in the Cob House, but wifi is available in the main garden. Tucked just down the hill from the main farmhouse, the Cob House provides privacy and seclusion while still enjoying access to the beauty and character of the surrounding property. The cozy interior features a comfortable full-sized bed and warm, rustic details that reflect the handcrafted spirit of the ranch. Just steps away, guests have access to a private bath house and a camp-style kitchen, creating a simple yet comfortable retreat for couples, solo travelers, writers, artists, or anyone seeking a quiet escape. Wake each morning to the sounds of birdsong and ocean breezes drifting up from the coast below. Spend your days exploring the flower gardens, fruit trees, and scenic acreage surrounding the property, or venture out to nearby beaches, hiking trails, river access points, and coastal towns like Gualala and Point Arena. In the evening, return to breathtaking dark night skies perfect for stargazing far from city lights. This is a fully off-grid, solar-powered property designed for guests who appreciate sustainability, simplicity, and a deeper connection to the natural world. High-speed WiFi is available, but life here is intentionally slower, encouraging guests to unplug and enjoy the beauty around them. Fresh well water is tested annually, and generator backup supports the property when needed. Guests consistently fall in love with the Cob House's charm, privacy, and magical setting. Whether you're enjoying your morning coffee overlooking the gardens, spending the day exploring the rugged Northern California coast, or watching the stars emerge over the Pacific, this one-of-a-kind retreat offers a peaceful and memorable escape from everyday life. Please note that the Cob House is part of a larger working farm property, but maintains its own private sleeping, cooking, and bathroom spaces, allowing guests to enjoy both solitude and the beauty of the surrounding ranch. You may see other guests on property, please be respectful of one another. Please note: The main house and the Cob House can be rented together or separately. If you want to rent them together look for listing "Roseman Creek Ranch"

About the neighborhood
Tucked into the peaceful coastal hills near Gualala, the Roseman Creek area offers a quiet and scenic escape surrounded by redwoods, open meadows, and the natural beauty of California’s Mendocino Coast. Known for its privacy, large acreage properties, and relaxed atmosphere, this area is ideal for guests looking to slow down, unplug, and experience a more tranquil side of the Northern California coast. The neighborhood feels secluded and immersed in nature, yet remains just a short drive from both Gualala and Point Arena, where guests can enjoy local restaurants, coffee shops, art galleries, grocery stores, and small-town coastal charm. Point Arena is home to several beloved local attractions including the historic movie theater, the Point Arena Pier, and the iconic Point Arena Lighthouse with its dramatic ocean views and coastal trails. Nearby beaches, ocean bluff trails, and river access provide endless opportunities for hiking, kayaking, tide pooling, beach walks, and wildlife viewing. Guests love the area for its peaceful setting, fresh coastal air, and dark night skies that make stargazing especially memorable. The surrounding landscape is a mix of towering redwoods, rolling hills, creeks, and ocean vistas, creating a uniquely Northern California coastal experience. Outdoor enthusiasts will also appreciate the easy access to scenic Highway 1 drives, hidden beaches, state parks, and the rugged coastline stretching through Mendocino and Sonoma counties. Despite the rural feel, the area still offers convenient access to essentials while providing the kind of privacy and quiet that’s increasingly hard to find. Whether you’re looking for a creative escape, or a relaxing home base for exploring the coast, the Roseman Creek area offers a peaceful and authentic connection to nature and coastal living.

Getting around
The easiest way to get around the area is by car. The property is located in a peaceful rural setting along the coast, and most beaches, restaurants, shops, hiking trails, and nearby towns like Gualala and Point Arena are just a short scenic drive away. Public transportation is very limited, so having your own vehicle is strongly recommended for exploring the coastline comfortably during your stay.
