Our family absolutely loved our stay at Eileen and Jason’s beautiful home! The house has such a charming and welcoming feel. It was clean, cozy, and had everything we needed for a relaxing getaway. The location couldn’t be better, just minutes from the beach and great restaurants, yet tucked away in a quiet, safe neighborhood. Eileen and Jason were wonderful hosts. Very friendly, thoughtful, and easy to communicate with. We felt right at home from the moment we arrived. We can’t wait to come back and stay again!

Great stay! We enjoyed the cottage. Very close to twin lakes beach. The road was closed for us to easily access the boardwalk so we did have to drive further. The couch seemed very worn out. Everything else was great.

The house location is perfect, it is close to downtown and the boardwalk. It will be even better when the closed for reconstruction road will be open and a neighbor's house renovating will be finished. Unfortunately, the Mexican construction workers turned their radio very loudly during the day time and did not respect the neiborhood quitness and dignity. Also, the house is more for pet owners. Probably, the outdated living room furniture stays there for that reason.

Nice, clean, comfortable place. Beautiful backyard and side yard. Easy access and parking.

Excellent renters! Very informative, courteous and considerate. Well stocked with clean towels, paper towels, toilet paper and garbage bags. Clean linens and dishes. We didn’t need to clean anything before using it. We look forward to staying here again.

Quiet Garden Cottage

We enjoyed a few days in this charming cottage but plan for a longer stay this fall. Though small, it was perfect for us. We enjoyed slow mornings at the dining table and quiet evenings in the outdoor spaces. Although we did not cook much, the kitchen was well appointed and included a washer and dryer, which worked great. We enjoy knowing the home has history. The garden and hot tub area were beautiful and private.. a perfect place to unwind after a day of exploring. The beach, harbor, a fun shop and restaurants were in walking distance. The Friday morning ukulele group and the Thursday night band was quintessential Santa Cruz! Can’t wait to return for a longer stay!

Great Summer Getaway

This is my families second time at the property and we had another wonderful trip. We love all that Santa Cruz and surrounding areas have to offer and this home has a perfect location. We love that this home is dog friendly, our dog enjoyed daily walks to the beach just down the street. We also loved unwinding in the hot tub at night. The home is small but it fit my family of 2 adults and 2 teens just fine. We had some trouble with the hot tub on the first day but the owner was very helpful and quick to respond. The regularly scheduled maintenance was the next day and it ran smoothly after that for the remainder of the week. My only slight con about our stay is that they are building a home across the street. The workers were there from 8-6 every day so there was construction noises and limited parking because of it. Overall we had an amazing trip and experienced so much of what Santa Cruz has to offer!

Hidden gem

Small hidden home with walking distance to the beach. Securely tucked in a fenced in yard where you can sit outside in front or backyard and enjoy the sounds of the waves or relax in the backyard under the stars in the hot tub.

Perfect Beach Cottage

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this charming beach cottage! The highlight for us was the proximity to the beach and definitely the hot tub – it was the perfect way to unwind after a day spent exploring the beach. The cottage is incredibly dog-friendly, with two spacious, enclosed yards that gave our two pups plenty of room to play and relax. We also loved how easy it was to access the property, and cleanup was a breeze, making it the most stress-free vacation. The kitchen was well-equipped with everything we needed, making it simple to cook and enjoy meals at home. This beach cottage truly offers a perfect combination of comfort, convenience, and relaxation. We can’t wait to return!
