About this space

Our custom built guesthouse was completed in 2016. It is situated on 5 redwood-covered acres, 10 minutes south of Los Gatos and 20 minutes from Santa Cruz. We have easy access to hiking and biking trails, world-class wine-tasting, microbreweries, shops, amazing dining, and more! There is something for everyone in our area! We are surrounded by a 35 acre tree farm, so it's very private, yet close to the silicon valley!
Our property has a standby generator so we are not affected by power outages.

There is a comfortable queen size bed in the loft bedroom.
The super cozy living room has a daybed with a high quality mattress and a window seat that easily be made in to a bed (Twin sized mattress). The window seat is great for lounging, reading, relaxing, and watching the redwoods!!
Full bathroom with tub, washer, and dryer.
Full kitchen with coffee-maker, toaster, microwave and all major appliances (no dishwasher)
Coffee, tea, hot cocoa, sugar, basic spices, olive oil provided.
Towels, soap, shampoo, conditioner, and hair dryer provided.

All parts :-)
Please feel free to enjoy and wander every part of our property, but if you reach a gate or a fence, that is our neighbors' tree-farm which is private property.

COVID-19 information:
We take pride in always keeping the guesthouse very neat and clean. In addition to our regular deep cleaning, we are now also airing out the guesthouse for a minimum of 4 hours between guests and disinfecting any surfaces that may be touched by guests (door knobs and handles, light switches and railings). Our laundry is done on the highest temperature setting. Please feel free to reach out regarding any other measures you have questions about.
In 2018 we installed a standby generator on our property. This means our guests will not be affected by any power outage in the area. The generator comes on automatically when there is a power outage, and we can run all appliances, lights etc . It is not uncommon to be without power for days in the Santa Cruz mountains either due to stormy weather or a forced utility blackout. This forces many airbnb owners to cancel their reservations but with the generator we are able to have light, heat, and internet and continue on with our lives as usual.
In a case of several days of an outage, we may ask you if it's ok to turn it off for a few hours at night.
We do have a small dog and 3 kitties in our house and on the property. They love to be petted, but are not allowed to enter the guesthouse, so there should be no pet allergens. We also have a couple of chickens, and if you would like some fresh eggs, we will happily share. (sometimes they are on strike in the winter though)
