About this property

Lighthouse at Twin Lakes Beach

VR PERMIT #211406

Welcome to the Lighthouse a 3000 square foot, 3 plus bedroom, 2 ½ bath, custom-built home that very comfortably holds two families or up 8 individuals traveling together. There are 3 bedrooms downstairs at street level, and a huge master suite on the second level which also houses the main living space and features an open kitchen/dining area and great room with soaring open beam ceilings and walls of glass. A gas fireplace in the living room provides comfort & style and can be enjoyed with a hot cup of cocoa while watching your favorite cable TV shows on the huge wall-mounted high-definition flat panel TV. If it is a traditional family game night that you are in the mood for, our game closet is well stocked including a small selection of great books. On the top level is a recently remodeled rooftop deck with gorgeous views of Twin lakes Beach & the Walton Lighthouse, a new hot tub and new outdoor seating to enjoy. Relax in the hot tub while enjoying a beautiful sunset over Twin Lakes Beach!

The Lighthouse is nestled in a beautiful beach neighborhood in one of the most desirable areas of Santa Cruz, and is easily walking distance to the Santa Cruz Harbor and Sunny Cove Beach. Located between the Santa Cruz Yacht Harbor and the world renowned surf destination Pleasure Point  where the Hollywood movie "Chasing Mavericks" was recently filmed. This ideal vacation home is just a short distance from the Hook, the Pleasure Point promenade, Sunday morning Farmer's Market, and many cafes, retail establishments, and restaurants.

The natural beauty of the Northern California Coast is legendary.  Photographers from around the world travel here to see one of the most beautiful natural areas of the World.  The Pacific Ocean is teaming with mammals and wildlife that migrate to Northern California year-round to take part in the circle of life. Countless hiking trails in California's State Parks take you up close and personal with centuries-old redwoods, spruce, and fir.

Located midway between the Santa Cruz Boardwalk and Capitola, and just a short walk to the Santa Cruz Yacht Harbor. Buy your fresh fish locally from the Stagnero's boat on the Wharf, and enjoy preparing a meal in the fully equipped kitchen, or just relax and stop in at one the many restaurants and nearby nightlife that abound. Later, roast marsh mellows and stoke bonfires in the fire rings provided on the beach.  You will enjoy breathtaking sunrises from the master suite. At night, the lights of Monterey, Moss Landing and Pacific Grove glitter across the Bay.

Fun family trip
This property was in great condition and the kitchen was well stocked with pots, pans, plates, and everything you might need. The location can't be beat. It is just a short walk of maybe 100 yards to get to the beach. We had a great time and will definitely be looking to come back.

Excellent beach location - minor updates could be very helpful
The location of this property is hard to beat. You are a few houses down from the stairs down to the beach. The beach is relatively private and less busy than the nearby state beach and is absolutely gorgeous. The rooftop hot tub was lovely and enjoyed by all as well. The parking in the back of the house is very convenient and comfortably fit three cars. The kitchen was well-equipped and allowed us to do all of our meals with our group of 10 people together. The cleanliness could have been improved, the counters in the bathrooms and kitchen did not seem to be wiped down prior to arrival and needed some attention. Updated bedding would do a world of good as well. Overall a great stay as the location is wonderful, some minor tweaks would make this property 5 stars.
