We stayed for four days, through New Years Eve, and loved our time at this house. Gail was accommodating with her check in instructions, and house was very clean upon arrival. Beds, furnishings, towels etc are all good quality and comfortable, but not extravagant (durable and low stress with a child). A very comfortable place to be, especially cozy with the gas fire place. Kitchen was well stocked with utensils, place settings, pots and pans. Salt and Pepper in cabinet, along with olive oil, BYO spices otherwise. Yard was great for children and dogs, being enclosed completely. Minimal/modest landscaping, with responsible draught tolerant plantings typical to the Santa Cruz area. Tree house was a lot of fun and a cool addition! 5 min walk to a beautiful stretch of uncrowded beach, and peak a boo ocean views from house with great sunsets (and sunrises). We would definitely stay again! Thanks Gail!
