We stayed in Ocean Cabin. A cute, small getaway. Think hotel room with forest vibes. Property was very clean and Emkay was very responsive to our inquiries. Only a 15 minute drive to Hwy 1 and 5 minutes more to Capitola.

Nice little quiet cabin in the Redwoods. About 30 minutes from Henry Cowell Redwood State Park. Great area, about two and a half hours south of San Francisco. Would stay here again. Great host

Beautiful setting, not far from town & easy to find but felt remote - we saw/heard owls, frogs, bats, all kinds of songbirds and possibly coyotes. Room was comfortable and had all the basics. Loved falling asleep and waking up to the sound of the creek!

This spot was just what I needed - was pet-friendly; was close to amenities but tucked away in the redwoods by the creek; and had a very cozy Santa Cruz community vibe. There were some wifi issues but EmKay did his best to address them. I would book again.

Really cute little cabin in the woods. Owners were super friendly and accommodating. The place is the definition of tranquil. There is little to no cell reception, however, the WiFi works great. Only minutes from Santa Cruz, whether you’re looking to surf or hike the redwoods, this is the place!!

The view was as advertised and the atmosphere was very relaxed. The mattress was extremely comfortable. The entire compound was surrounded by a fence and gate so we felt safe walking around at night.
