This is a beautiful retro style home surrounded by trees. You feel like you are up in the Santa Cruz mountains, yet you are only a couple of miles away from the pier, downtown, and the ocean. This was the perfect home for both mine and my sister's family. The 4 cousins (ages 14-20)got to stay in the cottage room, while the the parents stayed in the main house. There were a total of 8 of us and there was plenty of space for us all. The view out of all the large windows was amazing. I definitely recommend this home.
