What a gem! Close to hwy 17 but feels really secluded and tucked into the redwoods. we stayed here for 10 days and enjoyed the place-we cooked many meals and took advantage of the outdoor grill and dining table overlooking the redwoods (what a view)! The house was great for lounging, we had a few more laid back days where we took full advantage of a great TV and comfy living area with plenty of USB plugs for devices. The location is also great for getting downtown Santa Cruz and traveling throughout Monterey Bay. Our hosts were communicative and so kind. readily available when we had questions and super friendly. We cannot wait to come back!
