Rental Home
Spend some time at our beautiful beach house overlooking Natural Bridges State Park. Hear the surf and see the ocean through the trees from the living room and the expansive deck. Drift into sleep listening to the waves from your bedroom. Walk down the block to the beach, build a sand castle, and play in the waves. Stroll down West Cliff and watch the surf crash against the cliffs. The house is also a short walk to Swift Street Courtyard, home to Kelly’s French Bakery, the Cellar Door Café, Santa Cruz Mountain Brewing, and multiple wine tasting rooms, including Bonny Doone, Copious Winery, and Santa Cruz Mountain Vineyard. The house had 3 bedrooms and 2 baths, with a reverse floor plan. The living room has ample seating for enjoying the view, cozying up to the wood stove, or watching...Spend some time at our beautiful beach house overlooking Natural Bridges State Park.

Perfect beach house for family getaway!
The accommodations were great - super comfy and relaxing. Great location. Loft was a hit with the kids. Fire in woodstove was nice because it was a rainy, stormy weekend. We'll visit again.

Not able to make the trip
Due to medical issues, I was not able to make the trip. In addition, I will not use Trip Advisor again because I believe my credit card was hacked through this agency, as my number has not been used anywhere else on the internet.

Janet, I am sorry that you had both medical credit card issues. Our beach house is still a wonderful place to stay and we worked quite hard to attempt re-rent your dates.

Great house next to the prettiest beach in Santa Cruz
House is nice, great patio, right across the street from Natural Bridges state beach which is perfect. The best thing about this place is all the extra stuff it comes with -- a whole bunch of bikes, boogie boards, surf boards, a barbecue, a fire pit in the back.... It made the stay that much better to have all this stuff to use. No complaints about the house at all :)

Wonderful Home Great Location
My family which consisted of me and my husband and grown children travelled to Santa Cruz to attend a family wedding. We stayed in this wonderful home for a week. The location is awesome close to Natural Bridges Beach and the scenic West Cliff Drive. The home is very clean and the kitchen has everything you need. The bedrooms are very spacious and the beds extremely comfortable. The open kitchen floor plan is great for spending time together. We spent time on the front upper deck enjoying the beautiful views, warm sun, happy hour and cooking on the grill. The Santa Cruz boardwalk and Pier is a five minute drive with many shops and restaurants. There are plenty of bikes and beach supplies not to mention a washer/dryer. This home is close to everything including a grocery store around the corner. We even made a short day trip to Napa Valley. The home feels so inviting and Bruce was a pleasure to work with. Would love to stay again.

Great location and views
This was an excellent place for my family to stay. Many sitting areas and places to gather as a group. It has lots of stairs throughout the house so if you are taking someone that has difficulty with that it could be a challenge. Bedrooms were very nice and beds super comfortable. Lots of games and puzzles for those that enjoy playing, Kitchen is big and great for cooking for a large group.

Absolutely Wonderful!!!
Bruce was delightful to work with and I would rent again in an instant if the opportunity so afforded. Folks on the street would stop and ask me about the rental and I couldn't say enough good things about it! Our family all loved it: quiet private bedrooms, scenic family room, the best stocked kitchen I've ever been in, and walking distance to the ocean. Bicycles in garage to ride through Natural Bridges SP were an extra bonus!
