Great place in an unbeatable location! We chose it because it was so close to the dog beach, and that made our trip incredibly easy and enjoyable. We brought our senior dog back to the beach she grew up on, so staying here made the trip even more special. The home was clean, comfortable, and well-equipped, and the hosts were wonderful with communication and made everything easy. We had no complaints at all and would absolutely stay here again.

We will definitely stay here again! We were in Santa Cruz for a surf event at Steamer Lane- the location was great, it was a short easy walk to Steamer Lane and the coffee shop nearby. Also close to downtown Santa Cruz. The house was clean and had everything we needed for a long weekend.
