Barbara and Bill were great hosts and provided helpful recommendations on local attractions. Their studio is secluded, clean, quiet, and surrounded by a lovely garden, and their two Scotties are very sweet tempered. We enjoyed soaking in the hot tub after long days of hiking, and it was a perfect home base to explore both Santa Cruz and the Monterey area. We had a lovely stay, and would recommend the place highly to anyone looking for a relaxing getaway.
