Thanksgiving on the coast
The home was very nice and clean and you could tell right when you walked in that it was well taken care of. From the comfortable furniture, the beautiful kitchen, the coffee bar to the backyard with it's TV, patio furniture and cafe lights strung across the yard we felt like we were in a luxury home. The owners didn't miss any details in this house. When we needed help getting the keypad reset to enter the home Jennifer took care of the situation within 5 minutes of our request. We cannot say enough good things about this home or the owners. Definitely giving them a 5 star review and plan to stay here again in the future. Thank you so much for sharing your home with us and making our Thanksgiving one we'll never forget.

Nothing but great things to say about this property! All our needs were met including our fur baby. The biggest plus was the backyard. The yard was large and totally fenced in and had lots of seating to enjoy the outdoors. Bedrooms were accommodating and beds were comfy. We would definitely stay here again!!

Amazing place to stay
What a great place to stay and hang out with friends. The place was pristine. We didn't want for anything. So many cute things like Axe throwing kit and shuffle board. Thank you again. The place was less than 3 min away from the Santa Cruz Fairgrounds. Our hosts were easy to communicate with and checked in with any wants or needs.

We had a great vacation at this beautiful house. The owners were super responsive and the rental process was very easy. The home really had everything- a state park pass that we used a lot, beach towels and equipment, a fun outdoor space for family movie night after a long day of hiking, and very comfortable beds, and the list goes on. We would definitely stay again!

Watsonville stay
The state was fine. We were in the area for a family reunion. We stayed in the home with family and enjoyed the private backyard with morning coffee and watching the Olympics. The home was very nice and well kept. We really only used it for sleeping. We had one issue with the primary shower drain, but it was fixed same day and everything else was fine. Would stay there again in the future. The owner, Jennifer was great and communicated with me quickly.

Great House
This house was at the perfect central location for our family vacation. Having a CA State Park Pass to use was great too because there are lots of state parks in the vicinity. The beds were very comfy and we had everything we needed for our 10 day stay. Jennifer checked in to see if there was anything we needed even when they were going to be away themselves and I love when rental houses use your cell number as the code for the door so you can be sure it's being changed between guests. Fruition brewery was very close by too. If you like sour beers, they have some great beers. Thanks for sharing your wonderful home Jennifer!!

Perfect Getaway!!!
This home is exactly as described and even better in person. Check-in was very smooth. The keyless entry was a dream! No problems unlocking or locking the door. The home is clean and not cluttered with a bunch of unnecessary things you sometimes find in a vacation rental. Being from Hawaii we remove our shoes at the door. That is one way you can tell how clean a place is - my feet didn’t get dirty walking around inside the home barefoot. All the little details are there like the bedside phone and watch chargers, night lights, exterior lights come on automatically before dark and plenty nice fluffy towels. We only used the master bedroom and that bed was super comfortable!! Made it hard to want to get out of bed every morning. It was a little chilly during our stay and the heat was just perfect and worked wonderfully to take the chill off and very comfortable at night. Washer and dryer came in handy and worked very well. Driveway parking was a nice clean open space. Kitchen has lots of countertop space and the fridge was nice and clean too. We really liked the long countertop next to the dining room table. We used it to lay out the gifts and souvenirs we bought every day. Jen is a great hostess and truly cares about your comfort and enjoyment of your stay. I would definitely love to stay in this wonderful home again if we came back to the area. Thank you Jen!!!

Five stars aren't enough!
This is a well-appointed home with ample space, all the amenities, updated appliances, and a beautiful back yard. But the absolute best part of our stay was the courtesy of the hosts. Their response and helpfulness were sensational. As I stated in the title here, five stars aren't a high enough rating for this home and the hosts. How about 10 stars!

Cozy Watsonville home
This is 3 BR 2 ba home with a nice backyard. We brought our dog. The kitchen is well stocked, the beds are comfortable and the neighborhood is pretty quiet. It is right behind an Ace Hardware so there is some noise in the morning. There was bath gel and shampoo, laundry detergent and dish soap and a vacuum. There is parking on the driveway and some street parking across the street. The bathrooms are updated and there are lots of towels. There is a large TV in the backyard but we didn't use it. It was very convenient to the fairgrounds where we were competing in a horse show. A Park Pass was available but we didn't use it. We will book again!

Home Base for Girls Weekend
This house was a great location for exploring near Monterey for a long weekend! The Monterey Bay Aquarium, redwoods at Big Sur and Pfeiffer State Park, and the CA-1 coastal drive were all within easy access. We kayaked on Elkhorn Slough (just 15 minutes away) and saw lots of sea otters, harbor seals, and pelicans. Convenient grocery store and shops were nearby and some really good restaurants. The house was exactly as described - very clean, nicely decorated, and really comfortable! The backyard space was beautiful and a wonderful spot to enjoy the amazing weather of the area. We had a little trouble with the front door lock when we arrived, but the owner was very responsive and helped get it resolved right away. I definitely plan to stay here again. We had 4 adults on this trip, but it would be great for families, too. In short, it was wonderful!

Beautiful clean house. Great little toys and games to keep our kids occupied during downtime. The weather was a little rainy or we would have spent much more time in the beautifully furnished backyard. Took advantage of free Monterey Bay Aquarium passes which was a full day of family fun just a shirt drive away. Also visited the Martinelli's factory store and a cute apple farm with the most amazing pies. Easy checkin and checkout procedures. Would definitely stay again.
