This house was amazing! We loved everything about it. The location was great. The outdoor patio has a bbq, fire pit, table, chairs. We had dinner out doors nightly. Cover up or use insect repellent before the mosquitos eat you alive. You will not have cell phone reception until you arrive at the home. The kitchen has all necessary cooking utensils. I only wish we would have booked for a longer stay. Not too far from the beach and downtown Santa Cruz (about 30-35 minute drive) definitely recommend.
