Perro amigable casa de playa

This charming beach house was perfect for us! We loved everything from the vintage vibe (cottage feel but updated with every modern need) to the beautiful backyard to the south Santa Cruz location (I guess it's called east, but it felt south, next to Capitola)! It's located in a quiet residential neighborhood but close to the fun Santa Cruz sights.

The cottage has 3 bedrooms, but one is converted from an office off the living area and the bed is small - ok for a child. The other two bedrooms each have a queen bed, and all share one bathroom, which is nice but not huge. A little laundry room was appreciated and came in handy!

We took our well-behaved spaniel and he was in heaven. He roamed and explored the pretty back yard, then could accompany us to the end of the street where a scenic eucalyptus-lined trail ran one way along the lagoon to the ocean and the other into town. Every morning we walked there to patronize some cute coffee houses. And if we wanted to go further (wine-tasting, visiting friends, golf, more beaches), the location was convenient to so many central coast destinations.

Amy has a great list of restaurants and activities to enjoy while in the area, and her place was ideal for our 5-night get-away vacation! Thank you!
