I've been here two times, and I'm SOOOOO glad I got to stay two nights versus one night as I did my first stay. Linda gave me great suggestions for stops on my day trip down to Monterrey and Carmel. SO glad I went! And the walk to the beach near her was easier this time as steps were carved into the steep walkway. I'm telling you this is the BEST air B n B I've been too, and the ONLY one I'd go to in the Aptos/Santa Cruz area. If you are a nature lover you will LOVE this place...birds flying around, with a bird guide sitting on the table in the outdoor lounge area. Playing darts, hot tubbing it under the stars, and s'mores to enjoy over a warm fire...even in colder Aptos weather this place is a breath of fresh air...a piece of Heaven on Earth. The place is always nice and clean, with everything you need to enjoy...even a great heater for chillier nights to still be outside! I am looking forward to another getaway here when the weather back home gets colder.
