This is a wonderful home for a quiet getaway with family. My husband and I came to Santa Cruz for a brief mid-week adventure with my son and daughter-in-law while they were visiting from Minnesota with their 3-year-old and 4-month-old infant. The house is perfect for children, with plenty of toys and even a jogging stroller available for use, and Pak N Plays for little sleepers. The three year old was delighted with her bedroom and pronounced the bed to be “cozier than my bed at home.” We enjoyed visiting the Seymour Marine Discovery Center and walking to Natural Bridges State Beach where we saw the monarch’s swarming. The house is immaculate and well-equipped and the neighborhood is family-friendly. Even though we visited on cool February weekdays when the boardwalk was closed, we had a great trip!
