Amazing stay!

Owners were very responsive and accommodating. We were allowed both early check in and late check out without any glitches. The cottage is adorable and was very clean and organized. Lovely walkable neighborhood with nearby cafe, two restaurants, a gift store and of course the beach. Will definitely stay here again.

It was wonderful. The house was so clean and cozy. It was everything the listing said it would be. The beach was so close and the sounds of the ocean from the back deck was heaven. We will be back again soon.

Perfect Little House

This was the perfect little house for me and my sisters. I am a picky traveler and I appreciated the cleanliness and organization. Walked to the harbor in 2 minutes for dinner at Crows Nest and breakfast at Cafe El Palomar. Wish we could have stayed longer!

Cute & Cozy Beach Cottage

This cozy beach cottage has it all and it’s our favorite among all the other Twin Lakes cottages we’ve enjoyed. One block from the beach, view of harbor from deck, a garden both front and back, plus an outdoor shower. The fun beach-theme decor is everywhere. Truly a perfect experience.

Great location!

We love the location of this house! Only a couple blocks to the beach and to restaurants at the harbor. A great beach house! The only problem was that the back bedroom got very cold at night and we could not find any heat source in there. We would still return to this place though, the location is worth it!

The cottage is very charming and has a warm,cozy feeling. It is not fancy but nicely decorated. We enjoyed the deck where we could relax outside and where we had many meals.The location is excellent, only steps from the beach. In terms of the cookware, it would be advisable for the owners to purchase new pans.all the other cookware was fine. In summary, my son and I really enjoyed our stay at the cottage and thought it a great place.

Beach weekend visit

Teen and I had a lovely two nights at Santa Cruz cottage. Communication was excellent and pictured as advertised. Backyard deck is a sunny quiet spot. Street parking was challenging with beach traffic but everything else was lovely and we enjoyed our stay. Noise at night is very quiet and beds were very comfortable.
