Louw Tide

Wrights Beach - The house has a magnificent unobstructed 180 degree view of Wrights Beach and the Pacific Ocean. It is difficult to imagine a better view.

The living and dining area feature a continuous glass window 35 feet long with a panoramic view of the beach and ocean. The living room has a HDTV, DirectTV, Blu-ray player and free wi-fi throughout the house. A propane fireplace completes the comfortable ambience. The dining table is a contemporary glass table which is situated in the corner of the space with a spectacular view up the Sonoma coastline.

There is a half bathroom for the use of any guests.

The two bedrooms are distinctly different in character. The ocean view bedroom has a wonderful view and opens onto a deck with reclining deck chairs. This bedroom has a bathroom en-suite.

The second bedroom is the courtyard bedroom. This bedroom features a HDTV and propane fireplace. It also has access to a private courtyard with views to the inland hills. It too has an en-suite bathroom.

The house has off-street parking, a Tesla charging station, and a bocce court with the best ocean view!

The house is situated next to the Sonoma State Coastal Park. This park features the Kortum trail, which is a walk along the headlands towards Jenner. Along the way, are secluded beaches accessible from the walking trail.

  a guest from Standwood, MI recommends this vacation rental

  My husband and I rented Louw Tide for 5 nights for ourselves and our college-aged daughter. We knew from the photos that the property was pretty but we were stunned by its beauty!
  
  Every night we sat out on the deck, having dinner and enjoying the sunset. The sunset colors were different every night. We also loved reading out there during the day. Absolutely gorgeous!
  
  My husband and I opted for the queen bedroom because we liked the ocean view and breezes. My daughter liked how big the king suite was but she said the bed was too soft and it hurt her back a bit. Our bed was also soft but didn’t bother us too much.
  
  The kitchen was fairly well apportioned- if you are planning on doing any serious cooking you might want to bring your own knives. They had some basic condiments but we bought our own.
  
  It was in the high 70s / low 80s when we were there and the house gets full western sun in the afternoon. To keep the house cool, make sure to open the windows and doors with screens in the morning to cool it down and shut the screens in the afternoon. Otherwise the house gets very warm and they don’t want you using the AC.
  
  There wasn’t any information inside the house about details - only 3 basic sheets of paper about the stereo system and TV. The rental company sends 2 emails so overall info is a bit scattered. Also the couches are beautiful but not very comfy to watch movies from. They supply lots of blankets for inside and out but note that there are zero beach towels, no beach blankets and only one beach chair. If any of the blankets could’ve been used at the beach that should’ve been communicated perhaps?
  
  Overall a super nice property and the location was excellent! We would stay here again simply for the deck and the views. Also the artwork by the owner was spectacular- loved it!!

  Walt H from Warr Acres, OK recommends this vacation rental

  This is our second stay in this beautiful midcentury modern home on a cliff overlooking the ocean. This time we brought our daughter and son-in-law along. The view is spectacular, and it has pretty much everything a person needs to feel comfortable, put on a few meals, and relax on the deck by the fire or in a lounge chair. We did have a snag in the ocean-side bedroom in that the lights wouldn't come on. Same with a lamp or two in the living area. We finally found a flipped breaker in a closet, on Day 2, and that took care of it. It's just an exquisite place to stay for adults with no more than 4 people. I hope we get to return!

  It was great. A beautiful place and we plan to go again. Just a couple of things - BBQ is rusty, so could be replaced. Portable radiator heaters don’t help much at all. Dishwasher doesn’t clean dishes well. All things we could deal with, but they didn’t do the beautiful home justice.

  We so enjoyed our stay. Spectacular view from massive windows & listening to the ocean is quite calming. Wright’s beach not 5 mins drive..All the comforts of home while on vacation..Staff accommodated our extra towels request promptly..We played bocce ball next to fire pit for first time ever..Our only suggestion is to Varnish or resurface outdoor furniture as all are so dry & splintering..We’ve already referred others & would not hesitate to rent again..* Last yr.rented VRBO @Bodega& was so crazy expensive. This place Very fair pricing & you’ve given others opportunities to share in the overall experience. Thank you again

  a guest from Fremont, CA recommends this vacation rental

  The property is very clean and has excellent view to the beach. Sipping wine at the fire pit on the deck was great. It is close to the Wrights beach and Duncans point so good hiking opportunities.
  
  The only downside is the lack of central heating system. It relies on fireplace place and individual heaters to keep the house warm. Bath room has timer based heater which needs to be turned on every time. It is energy efficient but minor inconvenience.
  
  Overall very happy with our stay. Wonderful location.

  Considering the fact that I broke my leg and had two surgeries just 2 weeks prior to my arrival date, the management company worked with us on all possibilities of refunding ar rescheduling, however at the last minute my doctor cleared me to fly. I must say that Louw Tide is fairly wheelchair friendly and I did not regret my desicion to go. Wow, what a beautiful place..... We will be back for another visit in the future when I can properly walk. We were really amazed by the renovation before and after transformation, and really enjoyed the artwork. Our only regret was not being able to see if more beautiful works adorned her studio.

  The Home was tastefully furnished and provided every amenity possible. Our family has visited Wright's Beach every Thanksgiving for 42 years. Louw Tide was a "gift" to our self after admiring the property. Both master bedrooms were perfect, one with ocean view and the other with fireplace and darling garden view. I could sit for hours admiring the fantastic view of my beloved Wright's Beach. The only issue we had was handled quickly by the property management. I have already recommended Louw Tide to all my family and friends.

  Loved our stay at Louw Tide. The house is perfect -- beautifully designed and executed in teals, turquoise and aquas. Two master suites -- one smaller with ocean views, one larger with a gas fireplace and a private courtyard. No fighting over who gets the best room because both are perfect in their way. The house is well supplied, clean, and beautifully managed. A bit isolated, subject to chill winds and the road is a twister, but we count those as pluses. Would return in a heartbeat.

  The prettiest house we have ever rented! Straight out of a coastal living magazine with 360* view of gorgeous coastline. Feels like a model home it's so fresh, clean and stylish. Filled with wonderful art by the owner, made you wish you could meet her! We hiked down to the beach from Duncan's Landing overlook and walked the Kortum trail which goes all the way to Goat rock and the Russian river! Magnificent views and beaches along the way! Lots of great local restaurants and a great kitchen if you like to cook! We had such a great week and hope to return in the spring to see the amazing flowers around the deck! Loved seeing dolphins feeding, a little gray fox, seals and happy cows grazing. Loved every minute of our stay!

There was everything we needed for entertainment, puzzles, good books etc. We had 4 spectacular sunsets and one evening of light fog. We like fog. We would love to stay again all 6 of us.

  Perfect getaway if you love the sound of the ocean and easy access to walks and beach combing.
  The beach is really not safe for swimming or children near the waves so be aware.
  If it is calm there is a great beach for kids just over the cliff at Duncans Cove however and plenty of others a short drive away.
  August fog usually disipates by midday but remember sunblock anyway as it is only a thin cover and you can still burn.
  Russian river kayaking is very accesible and good value, best to go upstream first and have an easy ride back.
  Remember your kites!

  We had the most spectacular time! We have stayed on the coast renting cabins through the rental agency that has gone out of business and we were a little apprehensive since we had always had good experience with them. We have no more worries and will continue to rent vacation rentals through Bodega Bay Escapes. Our hope is that you will pick up the rentals such as the "Dunes" at Salmon Creek and we will be able to continue our family tradition of staying there with our grand children!

  Our group of two couples stayed here in July. This was the first time on the Sonoma Coast. As soon as we arrived we were impressed, and the feeling never left us. The living / dining area really does have wall to wall ocean views. The deck and fire pit really are the perfect place to enjoy some wine and look at the sunset. The well stocked kitchen and grill met our needs very well. The rooms were very tastefully appointed. Perhaps the best way to describe how wonderful this was is to note that we were initially making plans to take various day trips and scratched them because we wanted to maximize our time in the house.

  We brought friends from Maryland here for the weekend. We were all mesmerized by the view and the house itself. Can't wait for another excuse to go back.

  Mary B from Oak View, CA recommends this vacation rental

  From the moment we walked in the door, until the moment we closed it at the end of our stay, all was mostly perfect. The home is very well appointed and stylishly designed. We enjoyed beach walks and amazing sunsets. We did miss the fire bench which was out of order. The front of the house is all windows to take advantage of the amazing views. The windows were hazed over with ocean mist so our son hosed them, squeeged them and they were crystal clear for our stay -- took 15 minutes. We highly recommend this lovely home.

  David S from Yardley, PA recommends this vacation rental

  The architecture was more interesting than I expected although the bedrooms and bathrooms are small. Like almost all ocean-facing houses in California, late afternoon sunshine is very annoying. The master bedroom is in the back.
  
  The lack of central heat can be challenging on the frequent cool mornings and evenings and likely quite unpleasant on a rare cold day.
  
  Trying to comply with the water shortage means washing your hands in cold water and sharing toilet flushes.
  
  The neighborhood gardens were very nice.

  Lovely home-spectacular views. Place was tranquil and quiet. Kitchen well equipped except could not find (or they did not have) a set of dry measuring cups, measuring spoons, coffee scoop, or garlic press. Minor inconveniences for sure, but inexpensive items that might make a guest's stay easier. I made do and did not address this with management as it was trivial. Management was friendly and helpful at check in. We would gladly stay there again when in Northern California.

  I hope that this review is read by the managers; they were great, by the way. The house we've stayed in several times over the past 10 years or so; it's one of our favorites.
  
  Things the owners/managers should improve:
  1) Must actually have a KING SIZED BED in the master bedroom
  2) TV needs to be larger -- way to small for a group of folks to enjoy an evening movie!!
  
  Other than that -- a 'wish' would be for a nice hot tub -- tee hee -- that would make it a 10+.
  thanks !!!

  Awesome View cannot be better.
  Nice location with very close access to beach.
  House is very clean and well maintained. Many amenities in house.
  However, furniture is mostly old, to give a feeling of how it originally was. Or maybe owner have an affinity to the furniture.
  not internet access and even no phone signal. we found that to be a nice way to disconnect from the crazy world we live in and help us de-stress.
  Would suggest to guests to be mindful;l of wild life in area and be careful not drive fast in area.

  Tough one. Loved the house and loved the views (to die for). Listening to the waves crashing ashore was magical. The finishes are nice and the attention to detail was obvious. I had a tough time with not having cell service as I was still somewhat attached to work. It would be nice to have a washer and drier and there could be more towels. Unfortunately for us we had to leave early. Would love to be able to experience this again.
