Mickey's place is absolutely beautiful. It's in a quiet neighborhood in the trees. If possible you'll want to arrive during the daytime to acquaint yourself with the mountain roads. The road is really quite direct and easy to navigate during the day.
The suite is very cute and has everything you need for a nice weekend or for few days to work on that project that requires peace and quiet. The suite has been outfitted with a water heater, fridge, and microwave which makes snacking and saving money for nice dinners very possible. It's perfect for a solo trip or with a friend. I felt very comfortable during my entire stay and always felt like Mickey was a text or knock away if I needed anything. At the same time, they're very sweet about respecting your space and only as much attention as you'd like although I felt like I could have talked to them for hours haha.
Mickey has some great local knowledge so be sure to hit him up on where to eat and drink. I made day trips to San Jose, Santa Cruz, Henry Cowell state park and eventually drove up highway one up the coast. It's a pretty good location and alternative to a more bustling Santa Cruz.
The scene is beautiful, the suite is perfect and the hosts are amazing. I would love to return for another visit. Thanks!
