What a great place! We booked this place somewhat last–minute for a relative's 60th birthday celebration, something of a family reunion. People came from all over California, eight people total. We used every aspect of the house, kitchen to deck and backyard. Everyone remarked on what a great place it was, amazing views, great location, and even a very functional and well-stocked kitchen. We cooked a few large meals here, and there was was plenty of space to cook and to eat. The TV was great, and we watched one of the Warriors' games together on the couch.

The owner was also very gracious and responsive when I needed to call and ask about a later check out.

My wife and I have owned and operated an Air B'n'B property in Sonoma, and we know what goes into making a house great. Jan has done an exceptional job with this place, and if we ever have any more occasions to be in Santa Cruz, we will certainly return here!
