1 Br Private Vacation Home Vacation Rental In Jenner, California

The Cove House in Timber Cove offers a dramatic and romantic experience you will savor for a lifetime. Intimate enough for the honeymoon of your dreams yet spacious enough for two couples. Relax and toast to your good fortune in a rare bluff top swimming pool and spa overlooking a rugged ocean cove, View whales, dolphins, ospreys, harbor seals and wildlife from every room of the house. We spot whales all year round. Our location is perfect to witness the gray whale migrations, they have even swam into our cove with their calves. The harbor seals nurse their pups on the rocks just below the house. Designed by John Cook, the Cove House is constructed entirely of redwood and glass. Snuggle up next to the soaring wood burning fireplace with a glass of wine. A candle lit table with a view takes on a whole new meaning in our home, The moon dances across the cove to miles of whitewater coastline. The beautifully appointed primary bedroom with king size bed opens out to the oceanfront garden, pool area and outdoor shower. Enjoy stars and sweeping ocean views from the queen bed in the loft accessed by a spiral staircase. Flat screen TVs await you after a day of exploring the Sonoma Coast, wine tasting, beachcombing or simply doing absolutely nothing. Awake to the roaring surf as the mist lifts off of the rugged coastline. The smell of the surf mixes with your coffee as you curl up in the big leather chair. South facing floor to ceiling windows and cathedral ceilings allow the warm morning sunshine to fill the open and spacious living room and dining room. Don't be surprised if a pelican is sitting on the large upper deck off of the living room to greet you. Seagulls, hawks, ravens, herons and seabirds preform aerial ballets while ospreys dive into the surf emerging with the catch of the day. The Cove House sits on a very private one acre forested lot with redwoods, pine, firs and coastal flowers. It is the perfect place to unplug, rejuvenate and reconnect with each other. Turn on the music, pour a glass of wine and finally open that book you have been meaning to get lost in.
