This is truly a magical place, in a beautiful setting with incredible hosts. We stayed in the Cowboy Room. Both Robin and Dave are so welcoming and interesting to talk to. The breakfasts that Robin makes exceeded all expectation - I was even introduced to two foods that I had never had before: quince (which was on fresh yogurt) and shirred eggs - it was amazing! everything is farm to table and you can really tell the difference in how everything tastes. There are free roaming chickens, turkeys and a peacock, two cats and lots of sheep on the property which is really fun. The house itself sits right in the redwoods, and just feels so peaceful. It is very close to Bonny Doon beach which was also beautiful. It is about a 15 minute easy drive into Santa Cruz which we also enjoyed. It was cold in the evenings, and the Cowboy Room has a wood stove, which we used to help us stay toasty warm. Finally, the bed was the most comfortable I have ever slept in. I highly encourage anyone who would like a peaceful, charming quiet break from a stressful world to stay at Flipjack.
