Our stay was awesome! The house is in a perfect location for checking out both Santa Cruz and Capitola, both with beautiful beaches, endless place to eat and lots of activities. Walking distance to beaches and beautiful ocean views. Even better by bike- which Jackie graciously included with the house rental. The house was clean, well maintained and stocked with any extra you might not have been able to fit in your suitcase- including beach supplies! Even had extra dishes and toys for the kids. The fire pit and outdoor shower added to the experience as did relaxing on the front porch in a cozy blanket and a glass of wine, enjoying the weather and people watching. We loved it.
