My two best friends and I just left the Mushroom Dome for a week long reunion trip. The Mushroom Dome was more than we could have ever asked for. It slept three comfortably and had just enough space for food and all of our belongings. We spent most of our days wandering around the property behind the cabin and making delicious home cooked meals. We had beautiful french pressed coffee every morning on the deck and enjoyed hearing the most amazing stories from Kitty (best host ever) and meeting her amazing animals. The cabin was tucked away very close to downtown Aptos and just a short drive over to downtown Santa Cruz. Kitty suggested going to The Mystery Dome in Santa Cruz which we all loved! We also explored Capitola beach which was absolutely beautiful. We are so grateful for Kitty and her impeccable hospitality and would recommend this beautiful oasis to anybody who needs a break from the daily pressures of life. Kitty also was kind enough to show use her second listing called "Hummingbird Haven" which was equally as beautiful! It has a larger kitchen area and is set up with the most amazing furniture, private patio, outside shower and hummingbird feeders right outside. We loved our stay, and are leaving very happy! Thank you again Kitty!
