Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My 8 year old granddaughter said it was "the best house". For the last 3 or 4 years we've rented within this vicinity and we enjoyed the privacy and close proximity to the beach this house provided. The property description was accurate and it had all the amenities: washer, dryer, spa, pool table, bbq, etc. It was very roomy and comfortable. The people in the office were friendly & professional. We enjoyed driving to the Boardwalk and had the best fish tacos at Mijo's in Capitola - so good we went there 3 times! We had a beautiful hike at Nisen State park, and we mostly enjoyed the beach. This house is near the end of the private drive and there is a direct path to the beach, so the walk was very short. This home is the best.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This two story home is wonderfully situated on Aptos Creek just steps away from the beach. We stayed there with our daughter her husband and our four active grandsons. The house is clean, fun, and nicely furnished in a very comfortable beach theme. The pool table upstairs was a big hit with the boys and this granny. Grandpa had fun simmering in the hot tub with his progeny and telling his grandpa stories. The hot tub is nicely situated in the lovely enclosed entryway garden. The outdoor shower was a definite boon when our sandy troops returned from their beach adventures. So were the washer and drier in their little shed just out back. Sure helped keep the sand out of the house. The bedrooms are downstairs and the kitchen and living areas are upstairs with a fun view of the creek and Rio Del Mar with the beach off to the right. There are beach chairs and sand toys available on the porch in the garden as well. My only suggestion would be to add one or two bigger pots in the kitchen to feed a hungry hoard of boys like ours. We had a most wonderful time!🥰

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: All of the proposed questions were favorable. We have rented this property for a number of years and appreciated the furniture upgrades and in prior years appliance upgrades. We felt that the one issue that needs to be addressed is the mattresses on the beds being very hard lacking any softness and are not comfortable, seamed worn out in all of the rooms. Otherwise as usual in the years before we enjoyed our stay.
