Bill and Sue's place is tucked into the hills of Aptos, giving you a wonderful retreat from the busyness of everyday life in a city/urban area. The upstairs loft/condo in which you stay has all the amenities you need and Bill and Sue's house is just across the yard in case you need anything. The hot tub at night is incredible for the stars - so peaceful! Even with the house tucked away in the hills, the freeway is within a couple minutes drive and provides all of access you need into Santa Cruz, Aptos and the neighboring communities of the Monterey Bay. We spent a day hiking locally in the Nisene Marks State Park and it was beautiful! Thank you again Bill and Sue for a wonderful stay!
