This is a spectacular retreat from the everyday hustle and bustle of life. It's just off the grid enough to disconnect, but still close enough to many attractions in and around Santa Cruz. The cabin has an incredible selection of DVDs/VHS/CDs/Board games if you need a distraction. Otherwise, sitting on the beautiful deck, enjoying the great views, and taking in nature at its finest is all you'll need to enjoy your stay. The cabin was impeccably clean when we arrived and has all the amenities you'll need to put together a great meal in the house. As long as you are courteous and respectful of the house rules (voices really do carry in a canyon), you'll have a great time and already be planning your return trip before you leave.
