Welcome to Ocean View Studios at Ocean View Stables

Stay by the Sea
A seaside sanctuary for creativity, reflection, and connection to nature.

Perched at the edge of our coastal property, these mobile art studios invite you to stay a while by the sea and let the ocean set the pace. Each one looks out over the Pacific, offering a calm, salt-air retreat to rehearse, sketch, journal, reflect on your horsemanship journey, or simply let the tide pull you back into your creative flow.

Thoughtfully outfitted for a longer stay by the water, a restful place to sleep, a private bathroom, and a compact kitchenette, each studio is made for lingering: waking to the sound of the surf, working through golden hour, and staying on into the quiet of a starlit shore.

Stay by the sea to:

  • Rehearse or give a solo performance

  • Practice and express your craft

  • Study horsemanship or journal after a lesson

  • Try your hand at plein-air painting, poetry, or seaside mindfulness

Every studio has its own layout to suit the way you work. Four are designed for shared, collaborative work and comfortably hold up to five artists (or up to eight when the moment calls for it). The remaining six are made for more intimate sessions and solo retreats by the water, welcoming up to four.

Let the ocean breeze, the rhythm of the horses, and the wide-open quiet carry your creativity from sunrise to starlight. Come stay by the sea.

Your Coastal Retreat Awaits

Every creative journey begins with a spark.
Nestled along the Northern California coastline, our studios offer a serene haven for artists, nature lovers, and those drawn to stillness. Surrounded by ocean views and the quiet presence of horses, you’ll find space to reflect, create, and reconnect, just minutes from the heart of San Francisco, yet worlds away in feeling.

The Full Western Immersion

Add depth to your creative retreat with our signature Cowboy Cookout, an evening of open-fire meals, local beer and wine, and live Western music under the stars. Guests can experience horse shows, beachside trail rides, riding lessons, or join a sunset paint & sip overlooking the Pacific. Whether you're drawn to horsemanship or simply unwinding by the fire, our thoughtfully curated offerings invite you to engage, explore, and enjoy.
