Mendocino Stone Ranch offers unique, off-grid accommodations that blend rustic charm with modern comfort. Guests can choose between the Redwood Stone Art Retreat, a five-bedroom, two-bathroom home featuring a large patio and deck overlooking a redwood forest, and The Yurt, which provides ocean views and serene surroundings. Both options are designed to immerse visitors in nature while providing the conveniences of home. Dogs are allowed at the rental properties for a pet fee.

The ranch also showcases over 30 unique stone masonry art installations created by artisans from around the world, linked by trails throughout the 30-acre property. Guests can explore these installations through guided tours held on the first Sunday of every month from 11 am to 1 pm, with a sliding-scale donation. Self-guided tours are available for a nominal fee and include a map of the installations. Leashed and well-behaved dogs are welcome on all tours.
