Comfortable, cozy, and exactly what our family of 3 needed for a relaxing getaway! The house was very clean, welcoming, and had everything we needed — especially a fully stocked kitchen and super comfortable beds.We spent most of our time enjoying the outdoor space and beautiful river views. The neighborhood was perfect for peaceful evening walks after dinner, which quickly became one of our favorite parts of the trip. There’s also a great fire pit and BBQ area that looked wonderful for anyone wanting to spend even more time outside.The rental agents were also fantastic with communication and checked in to make sure we had everything we needed, which gave us extra peace of mind during our stay. We would absolutely stay here again!

The house was excellent! The check in process was easy and we found everything according to the pictures and description online. We were very pleased to see the house fully stocked with everything that we needed for our stay, even chocolate bars on the counter. Kitchen had everything you could need to prepare a full meal. Rooms were big and bathrooms were updated and very clean. Love the full size washer and dryer.

Rooms were clean. Small, but nice. Only downfall is closets are locked and no place for luggage. It makes for a messy bedroom if you’re staying for more than a couple days. We stayed 4 nights.The deck was awesome and where we spent most evenings.

Amazing property with full amenities, cute beach decor and nestled in redwoods. Very comfortable and quiet, lots of nature, but also within short driving distance to Santa Cruz and multiple attractions including The Mystery Spot, Henry Cowell state park (giant costal redwoods), Roraing Camp Railroads and more. Host was quick to respond to any questions, provided easy instructions and suggestions on area attractions. Overall wonderful stay, will probably stay there again.

We loved this little house in the redwoods with a patio overlooking the river

We loved this little house, great location, clean recently renovated. The patio area in the middle of a grove of redwood trees overlooking the river was very nice. The main road there which was at least 300 feet away from the house still generated some noise when you were outside, but not noticeable inside.
