My husband and I took a trip to Santa Cruz so we could surf and mountain bike. The Garden Oasis Guesthouse was a perfect home base. It is centrally located to great surf spots, beaches, and awesome mountain bike trails. We also found some yummy restaurants and friendly watering holes close by. Terry and Vallarie are delightful hosts. They shared some great tips and made us feel very welcome. Their dog Nala is such a sweetheart. We look forward to visiting again!
