We come to Santa Cruz 3 to 4 times a year from Ohio. We always stay in Pleasure Point but this time decided to go out on a limb and stay someplace different. I was nervous that we wouldn’t enjoy the area, the house would be too far from the ocean, we’d be bored etc. I fell in love with this house and grew to appreciate the area in general. The house was clean, had everything we needed, was full of sweet, charming, decorative touches, was a VERY short (only a few minutes) and VERY easy walk to the beach, market and restaurants and is on an exceptional lot for the area, at the end of a cul-de-sac making you feel secluded and like you have your own little slice of the world. There is a ton of seating both inside and out and the hosts were amazing. If I could change anything about this house (and I struggled to come up with anything) it would be to have a fireplace that provided heat as well as ambiance (even the one present was still a plus) and to switch the deed to the house to my name. :) Lovely, precious house that made our transition to a different area so enjoyable.
