This idyllic spot nestled in the redwoods is a perfect getaway. Chris and Zia are great hosts, very helpful, hospitable, and generous. Being familiar with Santa Cruz, it was nice to get a taste of life in the mountains, where the atmosphere is even calmer and the pace even slower. The city is about 15-20 minutes away, but the small town of Felton is only a few minutes for a run to the grocery stores, and there are numerous natural spaces in the surrounding area, including the reservoir at Loch Lomand, where there are boat rentals as well as great hiking. I highly recommend the Zen room for a relaxed trip away from the hustle and bustle where you can get plenty of vitamin N.
