About the host
Hosted by Geoff Call
I grew up in Cupertino and moved to Santa Cruz in 1994 after earning a business degree from Western State Colorado University. Santa Cruz drew me in with its world-class surfing, mountain biking, vibrant live music scene, and the beauty of the beach and redwoods. I spent 15 wonderful years living in a beach rental, but eventually, I craved a more rural lifestyle. That led me to Bonny Doon, just 15 minutes away in the Santa Cruz Mountains, where I settled on some acreage with my family.
Why they chose this property
This property boasts an unbeatable location, just 2 blocks from the beach and directly across the street from Natural Bridges State Park. Enjoy scenic hikes and bike rides through Wilder Ranch’s stunning nature trails. In the fall, thousands of Monarch butterflies fill the air, with some even fluttering into the backyard.
Conveniently close to Highway 1 North, the area offers breathtaking coastal drives, pristine beaches, and dramatic oceanfront cliffs. Plus, it's within walking or biking distance to the vibrant Swift St. Courtyard, home to world-class wineries, top-notch breweries, and exceptional dining. This lively yet sophisticated area provides a safer and more upscale alternative to downtown Santa Cruz.
What makes this property unique
The backyard faces south, soaking up full sun throughout the day. Unlike many beachside neighborhoods, this area is open and uncongested—you can park anytime without the hassle of searching for a spot. The backyard is ideal for family gatherings, whether you're firing up the BBQ, unwinding in the hot tub, or gathering around the gas fire pit at night, surrounded by lush tropical landscaping.
The gas grill and fire pit are directly connected to the house gas line, so you’ll never run out of fuel. Inside, the kitchen is equipped for any culinary needs, featuring a massive Sub-Zero refrigerator—perfect for stocking up on Costco runs—and a high-performance Viking range and oven.
For guests, I provide more beach gear, sports equipment, and baby essentials than most other rentals. Families will appreciate the two high chairs, Bob stroller, car seats, pack-and-play, children’s bikes with helmets, booster seat, baby gates, and a child bike carrier. For beach days, there are surfboards, bodyboards, bikes, coolers, beach chairs, umbrellas, sand toys, a beach wagon, and more!
