We were looking for a getaway for our family of six in the redwoods and the Redwood Cabin was perfect. It is beautifully nestled among many redwood trees in the Santa Cruz mountains with a gated entrance to the property for privacy. The cabin had everything we needed, and it was clean and comfy. Using the upstairs fireplace heated the main room nicely for our winter stay. The hosts were very responsive to our questions. Having stayed at other properties before, this was a standout experience for our family.

The cabin was very clean and we enjoyed our stay. Communication was great with the property owners, replies was sent within 5 minutes. The outside area was very nice even thou we didn’t get to enjoy it due to only being there two nights. I would definitely stay here again.

True Redwoods Mountain Experience.

This is a super unique property, chiseled into the side of a mountain above Santa Cruz, in the Santa Cruz range no less. Excellent and amazing hiking right near by at Castle Rock State Park. Lovely and interesting interior and a killer fire pit by which to enjoy dappled dusk and darkness. Highly recommended.

This home is truly special—clearly cared for and thoughtfully designed with love. It has such a warm, positive vibe throughout. The artistic décor gives it a unique and inspiring feel, almost like staying in an artist’s retreat. The downstairs master suite is wonderfully spacious, well decorated and comfortable, and the outdoor seating nestled among the redwoods was incredibly peaceful. Our little dog loved exploring the enclosed yard, which gave us peace of mind. We’d definitely love to return next summer!

About the host

Hosted by Jake & Michelle Richmond

Jake, originally from San Diego, and Michelle, from the city of Shaoyang in China, found a shared passion for the redwoods and life in Silicon Valley. With three energetic children and a love for travel and great food, they always valued finding balance amidst life’s bustle. A few years back, during the height of COVID, they discovered the perfect home—a cozy sanctuary among the redwoods, a place to relax and reconnect away from the pandemic chaos.

What began as an escape soon became their first true family home, a peaceful haven that offered them a deep connection to nature. Over time, they realized this home was too special to keep all to themselves. Now, with work and family activities pulling them closer to town, they’ve decided to share their serene spot with others. Here, they hope guests can find the same rejuvenating peace they have—a quiet, calming retreat filled with nature's beauty and charm.

Why they chose this property

It was the experience peace and tranquility with easy access to everything vibrant in the Santa Cruz Mountains. This retreat-style home offers the perfect balance: secluded enough for relaxation, yet conveniently close to everything a family, group of friends, or colleagues could desire!

What makes this property unique

Located in a gated parcel the cabin has been commented quite a few times by guests that mention it feels very private, safe and exclusive.
