We had such a fantastic time in Santa Cruz,CA bc our host & place to lay our head was so relaxing. The gardens around & playground are quiet & beautiful. The old craftsman ship of the historical home were so nice to see. Great location to the UCSC College of Santa Cruz & downtown for the boardwalk & amusement rides , arcade. Gracious hosts that were very easy to contact if needed. Lots of information when checking in as to the best hot spots & hikes,surf,etc. & to top it all off . The lights lit in the garden , star gazing, while in the hot tub. Couldn’t ask for a better stay.
