We really enjoyed our stay. It was nice having toiletries, snacks, coffee and laundry soap. The setting was beautiful! Only wish we had more time there to enjoy it!
Cute, cute, cute! This wee cabin by the river is fully updated and decorated. The beds are very comfortable and the kitchen and baths have what you need. Sparking clean! Indoor and outdoor space is comfortable. Great communication, easy instructions. Easy parking. For us it was a convenient location to the wedding at the covered bridge.
This place was immaculate. I really appreciated that. It's a little small for more than a couple of people, but since there's so much to do out-and-about, that probably isn't a problem. It was great for my sister and myself. The kitchen is very well equipped, with modern and well-running appliances, including an excellent washer and drier. Everything works great and is in great condition.The turn out of Brackney onto Highway 9 is a bit tight, so we just went north for a quarter mile and U turned to head south when going down toward Felton and Santa Cruz. The property location is great, right on the San Lorenzo. Only that turn on Highway 9 was a location problem, and that's surmountable (thus the 4 stars on 'location').
Lovely location near Felton and Ben Lomond. Clean rental and kitchen well stocked with all you need to cook. Market is close by along with restaurants. Neighborhood was pleasant and felt peaceful and loved to hear all the birds in the morning! Nearby river in state park provides river water play for kids. We all loved this rental. We’ll be back! Really appreciated having laundry on site as well. Communication was great with host.
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.
Thank you, Robin! We're thrilled you enjoyed the beautiful scenery during your stay. Your feedback means so much to us, and we can't wait to welcome you back for another wonderful experience!
Loved that the property was surrounded by redwoods and close to so many things like : Santa Cruz boardwalk , Henry cowells redwood park , highland park swimming hole , Capitola , roaring camp railroad and just being surrounded in the redwoods in general.
We stayed here while we were eloping nearby in the forests and Tedwoods. The place was beautiful and clean, and the hosts were very helpful when we had a special request.
This was the perfect little home for my family during our short trip to the redwoods. The space was clean and well cared for and my children even had their own beds! We would definitely return again.
Lovely stay with redwoods close by. Beautiful updated home with great bedrooms and a lovely kitchen. Close to Henry Crowell state park and the train ride. Also easy drive to Santa Cruz boardwalk for some fun and sunsets.
