We booked this place last minute for a Mothers Day getaway with our ~3 year old daughter. We had a blast. Easy access (when you get down to Aptos) to Santa Cruz or even Monterey (if you time traffic on busy weekends), beaches, hikes, breweries, you name it. Take it easy on the road, we spotted deer both evenings returning to the little house.
The space is fun, accurate to the description, rustic, and functional in a DIY sense! The simple amenities like the coffee and tea , fruit, and chocolate (that our daughter raided) were thoughtful, homey, and very additive.
Great hosts! Highly recommend!
