About this house rental
Capitola Village is a wonderful place to visit! However, if you're looking for a little more peace and quiet from the bustling town, our beautiful 2000 sq. ft beach house is located on the river path just a sweet 2 minute stroll away!
This family home has 3 spacious bedrooms and two full bathrooms complete with a 6 ft. tub! Parking is extremely difficult and hard to come by in this popular town but lucky for you, we have off street parking for 4 cars!
The kitchen has been recently remodeled with a dining area for six. The kitchen is fully equipped with all the essentials! Enjoy a cup of coffee or barbecue with the family on one of the two decks overlooking the beautiful and private backyard. There is an outdoor shower which makes cleaning up after a day at the beach a breeze!
Capitola Beach is literally just a two minute stroll away which is filled with the wonderful and popular shops, boutiques and restaurants. It is conveniently located 10 minutes from Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk and the Santa Cruz Wharf which also has great restaurants and fun entertainment for all ages!
Fully equipped and ready for a carefree and relaxing vacation with friends and family!

Nestled along the serene banks of the river, the property offers a delightful retreat for families seeking a peaceful escape. The house itself is charming with spacious rooms that comfortably accommodated everyone. Beautiful garden, a short walk to the local shops, restaurants and bakery, and the beach. Perfect blend of comfort, tranquility, and convenience.

We brought our son, his wife, and their 8 month old daughter with us for a first family vacation together. The layout of the place was ideal for giving each of us our own living room area while sharing the large kitchen and eating area. The porches on two levels was also a great asset.
Even though we had some rain and clouds some of the time, the covered porches extended our ability to be outdoors. And when the sun was shining, what a nice place to be right on the river. Mac provided all we needed for a trip to the beach with a wagon, chairs, and. umbrellas and the short walk into town and the beach was great. The place was so peaceful and quiet yet only minutes from the heart of the town. We would stay there again in the future

Our favorite thing to do is just sit in our beach chairs and watch the river and the seagulls - in the garden - surrounded by roses and family!!!

The property was perfect for our group of 8. Beautiful decks with an awesome view of the river. Minutes to everything you need. The beach, restaurants and shops are a stroll out the back deck. Plenty of room for everyone! Definitely would love to stay here again. Our birthday celebrations couldn’t have been better. Thank you Mick , you have a beautiful home.

Beautiful location. House itself could be cleaner and updated. Basics were missing like mirror in bedroom, batteries in candles, Kleenex in bath etc. river setting was perfect.

My parents rent a beach house every summer for our family to enjoy. The house was a great fit for a group of 8 with family from 12 to 65. My dad has mobility issues so having a bedroom and bathroom on the 1st floor was perfect for our needs. For the house, I would suggest a set of glasses that are acrylic/plastic for patio use since we spent most of the time on the deck and in the front yard, and we're always leery of taking glassware outside. Also, note for families coming that there are no games/cards in the house, which may be a concession to Covid protocols, but in our years of renting vacation homes, was unusual. We just walked down to the liquor store in Capitola for a couple decks of cards and made it work. What they do have is a large beach wagon for hauling stuff for trips down to the beach and low slung beach chairs, which was GREAT!
Be aware that the main path along the river is directly in front of the house but it didn't really bother us. If you want privacy with your morning coffee, I'd suggest just using the upstairs deck.
My last piece of advise would be bring your ice cream money...It was so close to the house that the kids (and adults) quickly became accustomed to nightly scoops. So Good!

Fabulous time!
We had a great time staying here! Instantly felt at home. Couldn’t have asked for a more perfect location to the beach, downtown and restaurants. The house was clean, well stocked and the beds were comfortable. The kids ( age 4 and 7) are already asking to go back! We can’t wait to stay here again!

Great for adults - parents might struggle a little with little ones - due to stairs and the river edge and the deck - lots of splinters in the toddler playing on the deck. Otherwise wonderful property and great owner.

This is the perfect vacation spot in Capitola. Walking distance to town and all it has to offer. We love coming here every year. It's our Christmas gift to each other. This home is so comfortable.

Post Tax Season Recovery
We have stayed here for the last several post tax seasons - it’s our favorite place to be - the beach and restaurants are just steps away if that’s what we want and peace and quiet are right there by the river if that’s what we want. My whole family gathers here and we sit by the river
Under the lemon tree and drink fresh lemonade!!!

Comfortable home that is a very short walk to downtown Capitola. Two decks that look out on the Soquel Creek are great for an evening cocktail. Highly recommended.

What a wonderful property right on the river! We kayaked the river and the ocean! Peaceful and quiet yet steps from town and all of the restaurants and shops. The lemonade that we made from the tree 🌳 on the property is the best we've ever had! We also got to meet the gracious owner and thank him for this opportunity to stay and experience his home 🏡. We will never forget our time together there ❤️ 💙

We had an incredible weekend at this house! The house was super clean and well appointed with everything we could need. Some highlights were the upstairs/downstairs patio plus the lawn area! We would rotate our lounge area to follow the sunshine. Super comfy beds in all the bedrooms. And the location is so, so special. A stones throw to Capitola Village but much different than the hustle and bustle of the village. We’d go back in a heartbeat!

This home is amazing with lots of room and in the perfect location to experience so many things in Capitola all within walking distance. Mike, the owner and builder, met us to go over the details and he couldn't have been nicer or more accommodating! We can't wait to return sometime soon!
