Nice place in a good location

In Santa Cruz for a wedding

My husband and I and two adult daughters (not their spouses or college age kids) enjoyed ourselves in this perfect for us place. We were busy with festivities so spent little time “at home”. Would have liked to spend time on that great deck. It was a little chilly though.

This is the Place to Stay

With beautiful deck views of the San Lorenzo River and close proximity to the beaches and the Boardwalk, the house was perfect for our three-day family vacation. The two-level house had everything our family needed for comfort. Lauren, the host, was friendly and quick to respond to our needs. We hope to stay again soon.

Another Amazing Stay!

My family and I love this house. This is the second time we have stayed here and it is the perfect house in the perfect location, even the grandkids were impressed! The house is within walking distance to the Boardwalk, beach, coffee shops and restaurants. Its located in a nice and quiet neighborhood, overlooking walking/bike trails and a view of the river. We love the time we spent here and will definitely book this vacation home again.
