Wow!! This was a great place to stay w/my 12 yr old! Kitty was a fabulous host, taking the time not only to show is around the property, but to actually educate us about the different aspects of sustainable/green living they employ here in Aptos. She even let my daughter--a true animal lover at heart--help with milking the goats! The permaculture water reclamation and "hummingbird highway" we're real eye-openers for us. The cabin was more than satisfactory and came perfectly supplied with everything we needed from cheese graters to beach umbrellas! I give Mushroom Dome in Aptos my highest rating!
