This is a simple cabin in an absolutely gorgeous spot -- great for quiet reflection, yoga and reading. There are decks in all directions, making it easy to sit in sun or shade throughout the day. You can see no other houses, just the forest and the sea in the distance (fog permitting). The silence is amazing, especially when the fog rolls in at night, and the sunsets are exquisite.
There are lovely Buddhist sculptures outside, thangkas inside, and very comfortable beds. The kitchen is functional but elementary, so plan on easy meals.
The location is a short drive from a great state forest with lovely hiking trails, as well as Capitola and Santa Cruz. It's way up a mountain on a narrow road with many switchbacks -- not complicated to drive, but I wouldn't want to do it after dark.
If you are longing for true quiet and beauty, this is the place to come!
