I only stayed with Caroline for one night as the last leg of my west coast vacation, but her place was a nice way to end my vacation. Caroline's place is very clean, spacious and nicely decorated. If I'm not mistaken I think her home is a Santa Cruz landmark and it's in wonderful condition. Caroline herself is very engaging and for breakfast I had her homemade baked bread and jam which was very filling! If you want to be away from the hustle and bustle of the boardwalk but walking distance to downtown Santa Cruz and a short drive to the boardwalk of Wharf , I would recommend Caroline's beautiful home.
