Whew, this was a but of a hike far away off the beaten path, but so worth it! If you're looking for something super secluded, quiet, peaceful, and relaxing, this is it. Pat recommended I try out Big Basin trails, which was such a nice hike!! I went hiking to Berry Creek Falls at Big Basin about 20 miles from her home- it was a glorious day! There is a cute winery nearby and Santa Cruz is about 35 mins away if you're looking for nightlife. I was provided with cookies and fresh towels, and with all the pretty flowers, the lights, and hot tub, this is truly a nice vacation spot. Her dog and cat are adorable and friendly. I wish I stayed longer and I would love to come back. Also, I would recommend asking Pat how to get there- GPS was useless even on the highway for me. Pat is helpful and easy to contact via text or phone.
