The Sea Ranch is internationally known and revered for its attempt to blend man-made structures with their natural setting. This most picturesque area of California, 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. The building design is unique in its architecture, and the challenge to " live lightly on the land" is on-going.

"Sea Pine Cottage", one of our Sea Ranch vacation homes is looking over a large meadow to the Pacific Ocean. Walking distance is about 400 yards down to the rugged shore line, which is typical of Northern California. The wide open meadow presents itself as a natural surrounding for deer, rabbits, wild turkeys and other birds of every kind.

The privacy of this home sets the tone for your peaceful Sea Ranch vacations. You enter into a light and airy place with the wonderful rich colors of the French Impressionists and art prints of the Dutch painter van Gogh. A lush meadow setting and warmly decorated living space have made "Sea Pine Cottage" a favorite for many repeat guests over the years. For your convenience, you will find an office corner with a writing/computer desk and printer. Even books and novels have been started here.

Relax in a lounge chair on the deck or upstairs balcony and watch the wildlife move by. 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, an 18 hole championship 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 this North Sonoma Coastal area. Or, soak in the hot tub on the deck of Sea Pine Cottage on a starry night.

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 something to nibble. The excellent Linkwitz Lab Pluto sound system is an invitation to listen to your favorite CD, or even your iPod.

Frequently asked questions

	View towards the Pacific Ocean from upstairs balcony of the bedroom Take a gentle stroll of 400 yards to the ocean shore
	Living room overlooking meadow and Pacific Ocean
	The Linkwitz Lab PLUTO loudspeakers are set up for CD, SACD, DVD-A, DVD and cassette tape sound. The loudspeakers are state-of-the art and are capable of accurate sound reproduction. Here in Sea Pine Cottage they could not be optimally placed so that the room boundaries would be symmetrical to the speaker and listener triangle. Therefore phantom imaging is poor and not representative at all of what PLUTO is capable of. Frequency response wise, though, you get a good indication of their capabilities. Listen also from different locations in the room and upstairs. Any lack in bass would be easily made up by adding the PLUTO subwoofers. Bring your favorite CDs or even your iPod and enjoy. Hear for yourself whether this is a loudspeaker that is worth pursuing, to build it yourself or to purchase it from Wood Artistry.
