Pete was a wonderful host. I feel so grateful that I found his beautiful, hidden home oasis to settle in for the night! I would pick an experience here over a hotel room any day! My stay here was soulful and replenishing. I loved all of the animals - melodious birds, friendly chickens, an outdoor house cat, and a friendly puppy. Pete was there to greet me when I arrived. He and his wife are long-time Santa Cruz locals. You are guaranteed a truly authentic local experience when you stay here! Can't wait for my next visit.
