Great place to stay, loved the gate that enclosed the front and back doors! What a great idea for kids and pets, you don't have to worry about little escapes. The house is beautiful- nice open lay out. We brought my mom - who was just diagnoised with a very agressive form brain cancer- this was her last trip and she said it was the best vacation she's had in a long time. My girls and I walked to the beach- nice little walk actually didnt even feel like a mile. And it was a quick drive over to capitola beach where my mom could enjoy the view from the benches. Thank-You so much, this is one vacation our family will never forget!
