10 / 10Outstanding·Feb 2025
My partner and I came for the long weekend - this was our first time exploring Santa Cruz and the surrounding area. Their property was beautiful! I loved the backyard. The room they had was attached at the bottom of the house and really felt as the spirit of how Vrbo began. When I booked, there was an email from Mother Nature’s Inn and I didn’t understand that this was a part of this listing and wasn’t sure if it was prompting me to book on the website or doing it through the app was fine. It all was fine in the end.Their dog, Cruz, was SUCH a cutie pie also . I loved that the house was also close to the parks which I wanted. Thanks for letting us stay at your place!
