Close to everything.
The only thing that would have made this a better trip were if it had been warmer outside. We had a nice stay, I would make one recommendation and that would be have some blinds or drapes on the shower windows. Odd there isn’t anything covering the large shower windows.

Perfect Place to Relax and Enjoy a Seaside Retreat
My daughter and her 4 year-old came from Indiana to visit for a week. The house is charming, immaculate and cozy. It is located literally steps from the nearby beach. My daughter-in-law and her two children could only join us for a day but the kids made the most of being so close to the beaches and near-by Capitola, where the quaint shops and friendly people reminded me of the days I took my children to body surf nearby. We also visited Monterey and Carmel during a couple of the days and left feeling refreshed and with many happy memories. I hope to reserve the house again in the future.

Wonderful beach house!
This was our first time renting this property, and we’re so glad that we did! Really darling and very well appointed. Plenty of room for our family of four and our dogs. Amazing location – half a block from Black Beach and walking distance to restaurants that we love. Wonderful property manager! Can’t wait to rent it again.

We've stayed several times at Laurie's home in Santa Cruz. It's cozy, clean and very confortable. We love its proximity to the beach. The communication with Laurie has always been great. Highly recommended. We will be back. Thanks, Laurie!
