Welcome to the Mitchell's Cove Beach House located on the sunny Westside of Santa Cruz! Located just a short, flat block from the nearest beach, (see map), the Mitchell's Cove Beach House is a single-level family-friendly sunny home with a welcoming floor plan, 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, and a private, fenced backyard including patio and hot tub area. The front courtyard is completely private with patio seating, and an excellent spot for morning brunch or evening barbeques. The kitchen is fully- equipped and centrally located to offer relaxed gathering space in either adjacent living room or dining area and includes a cozy gas stove to take the chill off of a cool morning. From the dining area, you can step down into the extra large and bright family room, where you can access the attractively landscaped backyard and semi-private hot tub area. The living room fireplace creates a lovely evening ambiance on cool summer nights. The master bedroom with king sized bed has patio doors that open to the peaceful garden and sounds of the Monterey Bay nearby. A short walk takes you directly to the stairs of Mitchell's Cove Beach. This vacation home is 1.5 miles to the Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk - the West Coast's last remaining seaside amusement park. An even shorter distance away is the Surfing Museum, well-respected surf spot called Steamers Lane, Lighthouse Point and Natural Bridges State Park. Downtown Pacific Street is just a short ride away, where restaurants and nightlife abound. \*Please note there is an added pet fee of 35$ per night per pet, and an added spa fee of 25$ per night.

The house is a very nice layout for us with 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a living room, good size and pretty well equipped kitchen and dining area and a large family room that is on the other side of the house from the bedrooms and LR. Different folks can easily be doing different activities at different times. It is clean, well stocked and furnished, one block from the water and West Cliff Drive. It is less than a 15 min walk to Verve Coffee! Finally, it has a Hot Tub and nice back yard. ##### Jeanne S. Stayed 7 nights in Dec 2024 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### flaurie i.

The house has a great lay out with room to spread out. The front and back yards were a hit. We brought our bikes and it was so easy to access the West Cliff path. We were there on a very stormy day and the power had gone out all day. We had contacted the Property Management to see if there were any lanterns. Someone very nicely drove 3 lanterns to our house. That helped so much! ##### Karen H. Stayed 6 nights in Mar 2023 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jeanne S.

We were grandparents, parents and two young children for a total of six. The house is well laid out for children (and adults) with a separate “living room” and “family room” areas. The kitchen and dining areas work well and seated us all comfortably with room for more. The kitchen is pretty well stocked for cooking. The beds were very comfortable and the house was clean. The yard was lovely for gathering and, again, for children. The location was ideal for us; close to Santa Cruz family, a short one block walk to Mitchells Beach and West Cliff Drive. It was also in walking distance to a neat shopping area. We would definitely recommend it and stay here again. ##### Jeanne S. Stayed 6 nights in Dec 2022 Verified ### 4/10 Poor #### Frank F. Jun 27, 2023 Liked: Check-in, location Disliked: Communication, listing accuracy #### Lovely Home and Location; Poor Management This home is located in a lovely part of Santa Cruz on a very quiet block steps away from the beach. The bedrooms are nicely proportioned. The kitchen and living spaces are well suited for a small group. The bathroom in the master bedroom was outdated and a bit dirty (the bathmat was filthy) and they did not leave toilet paper in that bathroom, but otherwise the house was what was expected. All that being said, we did experience one major disappointment when we discovered that the hot tub was not functioning. The management team was aware of the hot tub issue as they had a team working on it when we arrived. However, it was never fixed, which we did not learn until we tried using it the next day only to discover that it had no water. The management company never bothered to inform us that the hot tub was not operational and only addressed the matter after we contacted them after departure. An apology for the hot tub not being in service did not come until three communications later (over 48 hours after checkout). And, the financial accommodation for the inconvenience was more of an insult than a recognition of the fact that they were unable to deliver on one of their key amenities. The house is nice and deserves better from its management team. So, while I do recommend the house itself, do not expect the management team to adequately address issues they are aware of. ##### Frank F.

It was perfect. The house has a beautiful backyard and the key amenity - a hot tub - which helped us all relax. The location is two blocks from the coast (great for viewing, not for swimming), and there is a playground close by for my youngest. A large tv and playroom kept the kids occupied, and a separate tv-less living room meant I could read and relax in a separate space. I loved the large kitchen. My only complaint is that I messaged the owner twice about bringing a pet, but they never got back to me. ##### Ed C. Stayed 4 nights in Dec 2021 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Patty P.

Plenty of space to eat and hang out together, yard space to explore for the pets, close to park, beach, & grocery. ##### Lindsay H.

It’s a warm, friendly feeling house with a lovely yard in a quiet location about a block from West Cliff Dr. The kitchen had everything we needed and the beds were comfortable too. ##### John D.
