The cabin was perfect! My wife and I so much enjoyed a restful time in the redwoods. The location is central to everything you would want to do in the area. I can’t recommend this enough and Lynn, the host, was great. We will certainly be back!

Home Away From Home
We are repeaters. We just love this cottage. It is so comfortable and a wonderful home away from home. Lynn's gardens are beautiful, the redwoods are majestic and if that weren't enough....there are hummingbirds!!!!!This is also one of the best stocked kitchens we've stayed in. Lynn is also a wonderful host.

This was an AWESOME place to stay. Besides the small town atmosphere and the sight of tall redwoods, this guest house was wonderful. It was clean, well decorated and had a comfy bed. The back yard and porch are very welcoming!We definitely will come back!!!

The California Cottage was cozy and clean. It had everything we needed for a fabulous, stress-free getaway. Surrounded by big ancient redwoods, too, we felt tucked in and secluded. Magic!

Perfect Little House
We loved this property. We have stayed in hundreds of vrbos and this is one of our favorites. It is beautiful, comfortable and one of the best well stocked places we have stayed. It is peaceful and quiet yet close to so many things to do. We will definitely come back!

Beautiful Cottage in the Redwoods
What a great property, clean, beautiful and relaxing. We spent our time sleeping in, hitting up the state parks and relaxing in the evenings. The bakery was within walking distance was dangerously good. We went there everyday… would definitely go back

We had a great stay. Loved all the outdoor spaces. The house was quiet, except for an occasional dog barking. Restaurants were in town and Santa Cruz was a 20min drive. The house had everything we needed. LOVED the counter top ice maker!!!

Tucked away in the redwoods
We love this property! We are repeaters because the property is beautiful! The kitchen is one of THE best equipped we have seen. The back garden is adorable and the front porch lets you drink in the beauty and peace of the gorgeous redwoods. It is tucked away yet so close to all the conveniences you'll need. Lynn is a wonderful host, very responsive and has really thought about everything you need.

Giant Redwoods
This gorgeous cottage is ideally located to visit giant redwoods, and visit the ocean in MANY California state parks, Henry Cowell, Big Basin, Wilder Ranch, Natural Bridges, and Nicene Marks are easily accessible. Kitchen is well equipped, property sits behind the main house, surrounded by beautiful trees. Even the day the temperature rose to 89 degrees, it was easy to cool down and sleep at night.

Beautiful house and property, surrounded with redwoods. Lovely front porch with couch and swing, and backyard sitting area, comfortable furniture everywhere, and everything we needed! Birds and fabulous star viewing, even a hummingbird feeder outside the kitchen window. Will definitely visit again when we are in the area. Love the Ben Lomond Market a half mile away, for handmade sandwiches and all groceries we needed. Lynn is a wonderful host as well, responded immediately to our questions and reaching out. Excellent in every way!

Delightful Stay!
We adored our stay here in this little gem of a cottage set right in the redwoods. The place was stocked with all we needed and the attention to detail in all areas was very much appreciated. The back courtyard with firepit and bbq were wonderful as well. The quiet mornings on the porch were just what my soul needed. A mama and 2 baby deer joined us one morning and made it even more peaceful and special. We would definitely stay here again. Thank you so much to the owners for making our stay wonderful.

Ideal cottage in redwoods!
One of our favorite stays in Santa Cruz area!! Lynn is a fabulous host and has created an idyllic cottage - it was better than the photos… everything is new and lovely. It is very quiet and set back from the road. My adult kids (and their dog) joined us to attend UCSCz graduation ceremonies for our younger son. They slept on the pullout couch and we had the master bed. We liked having time to relax on the porch and the back courtyard. The kitchen had everything we needed too. Would definitely stay again - thanks Lynn!

Magical Redwoods
The property was great! The house was fully stocked with everything we could need except of course perishable food. We really tried hard to think of something we would need but couldn’t think of anything. “Hats off” to the owner of this property.

The place was supplied with everything we needed and was clean except for the caulking in the shower, which had a ton of mold. Kitchen was nicely appointed. Rental is located right off the main road so while there was no road noise while in the house, you need to be looking for the turn ahead of time. Not a problem really, more of a ‘good to know.’

Escape in the Redwoods
Very quiet, immaculate, decorated with care and upscale new appliances. Easy access to outdoors for pets. About 20 minutes to Pleasure Point in Santa Cruz. Well marked on highway Ca 9 but use caution if coming from the south to cross traffic. Best to drive to red light in Ben Lomond turn and head south on Ca 9 you can safely enter on the right side. Great hiking trails throughout the area. We loved it.
