My husband, dog and I all loved Rusty & Angela's cottage. It is in the sweetest location in La Selva Beach, very close to the nicest beach in the Monterey Bay, I believe. And it's totally detached and private from the main house, with lots of land surrounding it for our dog to roam. The cottage itself has the perfect spaces needed, with a nice separation of space between the living room and bedroom, and a fully equipped kitchen. And the decor is very nice and new-seeming, with a beach theme. Check-in was super simple with an automatic keypad, and no need to worry about keys. We will definitely be back, and consider this our go-to spot when visiting friends and family in the Santa Cruz area.
