Moonrise Forest Retreat - Gualala Redwoods Home with Game Room Soaking Tub and ADU

Wake up in the redwoods above Gualala, a 10-minute drive from the beach on the Mendocino coast. This multi-level 3BR/3BA forest home sleeps 8: rally around the game room's convertible pool/ping-pong table, soak in the freestanding tub, and grill on two levels of deck under string lights. A detached ADU suite adds its own bedroom, sitting room, bath, and private entrance. WiFi, washer/dryer, and an EV charger for guests - beaches and downtown Gualala are minutes down the hill.

Wake up in the treetops, then take a 10-minute drive down to a quiet Gualala beach. Moonrise Forest sits high in the redwoods and firs above Gualala on the Mendocino coast, and nearly every window frames the forest - the kind of place where mornings start with coffee on the deck and evenings end around the game table.

UPSTAIRS LIVING
The main level opens under vaulted wood-plank ceilings and exposed beams. The picture-window living room is lined with built-in bookshelves and deep seating - including two classic red papasan chairs - with a wall-mounted TV for movie nights. A window AC unit keeps the room comfortable on warm afternoons, a decorative brick fireplace (warmed by an electric heater) anchors the corner, and a sliding door steps straight onto the deck.

KITCHEN & DINING
The skylit kitchen carries the home's forest character: sage-green cabinetry, a glass-block backsplash, and an angled island with seating for three. It's fully equipped for real cooking - oven, stove, dishwasher, microwave, coffee maker, and full cookware. The dining table seats up to eight beneath its own wall of glass, so the whole group eats together.

GAME ROOM
The room everyone claims first. A convertible table switches between pool and ping-pong, joined by a dartboard, a chalkboard wall for scorekeeping, a second TV, bean-bag seating, and a live-edge window bar where spectators watch the action with the trees behind them.

SLEEPING - SLEEPS 8

• Master Bedroom: King bed plus a sofa bed, private deck access, forest views, and an ensuite spa bath with a freestanding soaking tub set against black penny tile, a double vanity, and a walk-in closet
• Bedroom 2: Queen bed and a Double bed - an easy fit for families or friends sharing
• Bedroom 3 (detached ADU suite): Queen bed, a dedicated sitting room with a sleeper sofa, an ensuite bath, and its own private entrance - perfect for grandparents, teens, or anyone who wants their own space

BATHS
Three full bathrooms across the home and ADU, including the primary's spa bath with soaking tub, a double-vanity bath with a walk-in shower, and additional shower/tub and vanity space - no morning bottlenecks, even with a full house.

OUTDOOR LIVING
Two levels of deck wrap the home in the forest. Grill dinner on the upper deck under bistro string lights, or take the shade on the covered lower deck among the ferns. A gravel path winds through the trees past a small lawn, with towering redwoods for privacy on every side.

LAUNDRY & EXTRAS
A full laundry room (washer + dryer, iron) makes longer stays easy. WiFi throughout, free parking on premises, and an EV charger available for guest use.
