Colleen is a SUPER superhost! She is quick to respond to our queries, and welcomed and checked-in with us throughout our stay to make sure we had everything we needed. Her home was perfect for our lovely weekend getaway in Santa Cruz, and she had a lovely list of "what to do/where to go" recommendations. We loved the location (close to beach/boardwalk), playground, restaurants/stores, etc. Her house itself is lovely and included a wonderful backyard (with hammock and bbq pit!) where we were able to enjoy quiet mornings and evenings together as a family. Highly recommended!
