Incredible house
The house was absolutely perfect! We stayed with two other families and the big room was ideal for the kids! The outdoor area was stunning and a great space for the kids to run around. The location was convenient and the host was very responsive. We will definitely look to stay here again if/when we get back to Santa Cruz!

Beautiful house
We stayed here with three families (12 people) and would absolutely stay here again! The house was spacious and clean, and the backyard was perfect for the kids. We grilled, made s’mores, went in the hot tub, and played catch on the lawn. Just 15 minutes to Santa Cruz boardwalk, too.

Awesome host and place
Crystal was very nice and thorough with her explanation of checking in. Check in was a breeze. The house was much more spacious than I imagine. Houses usually look bigger in the pictures but not this house. It is huge and roomy with plenty of place to sit inside and outside the house. Plenty of parking as well. Overall, I will definitely book this place again.

This is our 3rd time staying here and it never disappoints!! All the room and accommodations needed for a perfect beach getaway! Pictures don’t do the place justice. If you’re thinking of renting this gorgeous house, don’t hesitate and do it! Also the owner crystal is fantastic to rent from. Always quick to respond and cares about her renters. Will be back for a 4th time next year!

Fantastic house in Soquel was PERFECT!
The house is even bigger than it appears in the photos and decorated really nicely. We enjoyed the large backyard with plenty of spaces, tables, firepit, corn hole, flowers and a hot tub! The kitchen is perfectly organized, the couches were comfie and the dining table is generously sized to fit everyone. We were there for a wedding and had more than enough room for several cars. The host is fabulous and I'd call this the perfect house! I'm hoping my family will return another time when this exact house is available. Thank you for a perfect place to stay! I HIGHLY recommend this house without any reservation :)

I spent 3 nights here for a girls weekend and it was so much space for 12 of us, with great indoor / outdoor living and privacy. Also good location that wasn’t too far to get to Capitola, Aptos & Santa Cruz. Would highly recommend!

So wonderful!
This is our second time staying here. It has huge spaces, great backyard with 3 dining areas and 2 lounging areas. FULLY stocked kitchen and nice beds, linens and pillows. Loved walking every morning. Last morning we saw 3 cotton tail rabbits. Spotted deer family, foxes and quails from yard and walks. Loved huge dining table indoor and couch big enough for family movies. Quiet but close to everything you would need including children’s playground. We love it here. Ages 78-6.

Peaceful with WOW house and yard
The house was gorgeous. It had large rooms. Downstarirs had large living area/dining area with table to fit twelve people and kitchen with island with lots of cubboards and drawers and walk in pantry. Upstairs there were two standard size rooms with king size beds. One large master suite with huge tv, bathtub and shower stall. Second extremely large room with king size bed, two trundle beds and shower that could fit five people. Also a laundry room with extra large washer/dryer and ironing board and iron. Outside was a jacuzzi are with couches.There was another area with two tables to fit six on each table and portable barbeque. Another area with lounge couch. Another area surrounding a place to have a fire. The lawn area invited corn hole (provided in the garage), hammock for two. The backyard was backed by a creek with huge trees about one hundred feet tall. Sounds of birds welcomed us for our early morning coffee time.

Great gathering venue
Our group of teachers and dear friends have been gathering for 8 years now and this was our favorite venue yet. The check-in process was seamless, the owners communication was excellent, the living space was very comfortable and the sleeping arrangements quite flexible. We absolutely enjoyed our experience! We will book with you again next year for sure! Thank you for providing a great venue!

Friends weekend getaway
This property was even more impressive than it seemed in the photos. We were a group of 10 adult women and there was enough space for all of us to relax and the enjoy the weekend. The backyard space was very enjoyable and peaceful. The kitchen was very well stocked and had everything that we could have needed. Crystal was very helpful and responsive when I had questions before and during our stay. We would definitely stay at this property again.

Large, spotless, and well appointed.
This large, well appointed home was perfect for our family of 8 adults, a 3-yr old, a 6-yr old and a dog. The yard was fully fenced with a large lawn and nice hot-tub. One of the two very large rooms had two trundle beds for kids in addition to the king for adults. Was anything missing? I can’t imagine what else one might need! The property manager thought of everything! I would definitely stay here again

Exactly what we wanted
This was as advertised, good multi-family home for all to enjoy. Very good location with Santa Cruz within 15 minutes, and beaches and restaurants galore. The bedrooms were good, the kitchen was usable with good appliances and plenty of space to work in. There were more "owner" closets and pantries than we thought there would be but it really didn't matter as they provided in room hanging racks. The backyard and patio were exactly what we needed for kids and dog and the living rooms and dining rooms were great gathering areas. Miinor flaw in the place was there were some ants in the bathrooms, and the hot tub was average (heated to good temperature but the bubbles and jets didn't work all that well due to age of the hot tub, I guess). Would highly recommend for small family reunion, which was what our stay was.
