The classic beach getaway is exciting and fun, but it can also be crowded, windy, and overwhelming. Tucked into a wooded acre on the Inverness Ridge, this charming A-Frame in Northern California provides a most uncommon beach getaway where you can experience the magic of the ocean and the quiet solitude of the forest.

Built in the early '70s from local douglas fir, the cabin offers classic A-frame construction and Bohemian design.
