Pat was a friendly and gracious host, and her cozy guest house matched her description of it. She made sure that I was comfortable, and it was very easy to feel worry-free in this idyllic spot.

The location is perfect for me, about 20 minutes to the campus of UC Santa Cruz and also about 20 minutes to the quaint town of Los Gatos. Getting to Pat's place is a little bit of an adventure since the road there winds through the mountains—but don't let that deter you! You will drive through the most beautiful redwoods, cottonwoods, oaks, and manzanitas on your way there. I would recommend arriving at Pat's before sundown, especially if you're not used to that kind of drive.

I will definitely back! Thank you so much, Pat!
