About this property

Snug Harbor

VR PERMIT # 211396 expires 11/18/2026

Welcome to Snug Harbor in Santa Cruz!
Located just steps from the picturesque Yacht Harbor, this beautifully remodeled 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom home offers stunning, nearly unobstructed views of boats drifting in and out of the harbor. With bright, open spaces, skylights, and plenty of windows, this home is a serene retreat. The cozy living room, complete with a flat-screen HD TV and a warm fireplace, invites you to relax after a day of adventures.

Just across the harbor, enjoy fresh seafood at Johnny’s Harborside Restaurant, or grab daily fresh catches and oysters at H&H Fish. Down the street, experience one of Santa Cruz’s most popular and dog-friendly beaches, Twin Lakes Beach, where you can reserve a fire pit, play volleyball, or relax at one of the seaside cafés. Rent a kayak or paddleboard at the Kayak Connection, just steps from Snug Harbor, and take in the natural beauty of the area.

For mountain biking enthusiasts, enjoy scenic trails at the nearby Forest of Nisene Marks State Park or Wilder Ranch State Park, where you can explore miles of rugged trails. If golfing is more your style, you're in luck! Enjoy a round at DeLaveaga Golf Course, just a 15-minute drive away, or challenge yourself at the renowned Pasatiempo Golf Course, about 20 minutes from the house.

After your adventures, unwind in the quiet, peaceful neighborhood of Snug Harbor, where you can enjoy your private, fully-enclosed backyard with a tropical outdoor shower, a southwest-facing patio for stunning sunset views, or BBQ in the enclosed courtyard. The well-equipped kitchen and large dining area make it easy to prepare and enjoy meals together.
