Everything about our experience can be described with one word - "lovely"! Caroline is a lovely, charming and interesting host, the historic house is lovely, the accommodations are lovely, the view is lovely. Upon arrival we were treated with a home tour that included an amazing, magical space - the Orchidarium - created by stone walls covered in moss and holding a wild variety of orchids and other such plant life. The "house cat" is equally magic… The room has a panoramic view of Santa Cruz and ocean and was flooded with morning light that kind of took our breath away. Even the bathroom is cool! And the neighborhood is quiet enough to get a good night's sleep. We will definitely return if Caroline will have us!
