Great house, walking distance from the water
We had a lovely weekend here! The host is very responsive. The house is comfortable with everything you might need. Very close to Safeway for easy grocery shopping. Well appointed kitchen and utensils. Everything worked. Lovely yard for our dog to play in. Quiet neighborhood overnight. We’d love to return.

Great summer getaway
A nice summer getaway out of the valley heat! Location was great just a couple blocks from the ocean, restaurants and grocery stores. We enjoyed mountain biking Wilder and other trails, watching the surfers at the lighthouse and exploring the redwoods of Henry Cowell state park. Only downside was the increased traffic from the detour of West Cliff drive going up Almar , the house is located on a busy corner. Overall we had a nice stay and would return!

Wonderful, pet-friendly home is central to EVERYTHING!
This home is so cozy and quaint. We loved our stay here and plan to come back! It has lots of charm and has been renovated to have all the modern conveniences. It's centrally located, so you're down the street from the ocean, close to the Boardwalk, restaurants, wine tasting, grocery store and not far from downtown. The owners are extremely responsive and accommodating. They are also dog friendly people, which we love! The property has a serene, totally secure and private backyard - great if you're traveling with your dog(s) or just want to relax in a nice, outdoor environment. We highly recommend stayng here!

Perfect location
We love the westside of Santa Cruz and had a fantastic stay in this home. Super close to Natural Bridges and loved being able to wake up in the morning and walk along West Cliff. We had everything we needed at the house to be comfortable during our stay and particularly enjoyed sitting in the backyard in the afternoons.
