This is a great place with everything you need and a very excellent host. A lot of thought and effort went into make this cottage a very accommodating home away from home. The rooms are comfortable, the appliances work well, the wifi is fast (256 Mbps down, 11.6 up, ping 12 ms), outside seating and grill are relaxing, it has everything we needed. And the location is excellent. Charming bucolic setting just minutes from downtown Santa Cruz in one direction, and Scotts Valley in the other. We brought our bikes with us and Colin let us use the very nice shed for easy secure storage. And talking bikes, the roads around here are really fun to ride. Staying close you have Branciforte, Glen Canyon, Granite Creek, and San Jose - Soquel Road, going out a bit further south you can ride up to Nisene Marks and heading north we rode up to Davenport, for a longer ride keep going to Pescadero. And let's not forget our host, Colin is fantastic and you're going to love him. Consider him a brilliant engineer turned gentleman farmer. You can see his attention to detail and well thought out designs all around the property. It's been a labor of love and inspiration, and it shows. So don't hesitate, you will feel right at home here, nestled away from the busier parts of town yet very close to anywhere you want to be.
