Beautiful and cozy
This home was so clean and inviting. The first thing we noticed was the mesmorizing smell of jasmine surrounding the house and the beautiful flowers and yards. The home inside was very tidy and super well organized! I personally loved all the labels everywhere to help us know where to look in the kitchen. Our 3 year old daughter loved finding all the toys, crafts, and gamesin the garage and we also loved spending time in the yards running, exploring, finding "treasure" and playing soccer. My husband and I loved relaxing in the hammock. We used the hot tub once and it was magical, wish we had done it more but our days were pretty full! We loved how close the house was to the beach and it was only a short drive away from some other highlights of Santa Cruz. Cathy was so easy to get in touch with and was always available to help out if we needed adventure advice or help with anything in the house. All in all, this home was incredibly comfortable and relaxing and we would definitely recommend it and know it will be our first choice if we visit again in the future. Thank you for letting us stay in your beautiful home!

Wonderful stay
Great location and very well maintained property. Plenty of real green plants and flowers that make you feel at home. I am most impressed by the flower pot found on the kitchen counter top, first I thought they were fake flowers, then I realized they were beautifully arranged bunch of fresh herbs, it has rosemary, mint, thyme, basil and others that I can't name of. They are all fresh! It is simply amazing. To top it off, the flower pot is painted with some of the herbs, how approporicate!

Bright Beach Cottage with beautiful yard
Stayed at Cathy's place for Spring Break with my sister and two nieces. The house is lovely and clean with a beautiful backyard and front yard full of flowers. We enjoyed the hot tub and outdoor shower as well as the beach bikes. Fresh flowers, herbs and lemons were a special touch in the house! Cathy was wondering to work with and the neighborhood is close to Pleasure Poknt area.
