Brian's place was even more beautiful than expected. We happened to be staying in Santa Cruz during a monumental, record breaking storm so enjoying the beach and even going to town wasn't on the agenda. Luckily we were able to cook some chili and work on a puzzle by the fireplace and stay cozy while the rain came down. And the sauna plus outdoor shower was a huge plus! We would take turns warming up then could step right outside into the rain or the outdoor shower for a cold plunge. Anyone else who stays here will surely enjoy how beautiful and surprisingly spacious the home is while also feeling quaint and cozy.
