Skip's place is very well-located (only 5 minutes to the freeway by car) and is in a nice, private neighborhood. It was very easy to get around the Soquel and Aptos areas, and was only a short drive to Santa Cruz. I really appreciated all of the personal details in the unit, it definitely made our weekend stay memorable. Additionally, Skip was very responsive to messages and provided detailed instructions for check-in, as well as some helpful suggestions for local events and things to do. Highly recommend it for anyone visiting the area! :)
