Perfection

My son and I stayed at David’s ranch. It was a perfect location for taking in the abundance of natural beauty and served as the perfect home base for our Santa Cruz exploration. David was kind and enthusiastic about sharing lots of his favorite spots in the area. My 10 yo son fell in love with David’s horses and said hello to them first thing each morning. We would definitely return!

8/10 Good

Good vibes

David was a wonderful host and his property was even more beautiful than the photos showed. We particularly enjoyed saying hello to the horses and meeting David's super helpful caretaker, Jeff :) Only complaint was internet for working remotely- had trouble getting and keeping a reliable connection, even though I called ahead about it. This cost us a day of work and we had to go to the Santa Cruz Marriott in order to have WiFi. But ultimately David did his best to help and and it worked much better the second day. As long as you are not trying to work remotely, I highly recommend this stay!

Relaxing and beautiful!

David is a wonderful host. Warm, kind and knowledgeable of many things from places to eat, to the history of the area and of course, horses! He has two beautiful horses, Rico and Fosse. We got to feed them carrots and you can see them from the suite. We walked around the grounds and star gazed our second night. It was quiet, clean, comfortable and just all around amazing. If you want to get away from the current state of our world, David's place feels miles, if not worlds away from it all!

About the host

Hosted by David De La Rosa

I'm Sorry but my entire Ranch burned down in the Fire.

I'm David and I work out of my home office on my 86 Acre Security Gated Ranch in the Redwoods above UCSC
I love the amazing Redwood Trees and views across Monterey Bay as well as watching wild life.
I've been Horse crazy since I was a little kid and I also love riding my Mountain Bike along the beach to fun Bistros and on the bike trails in Wilder Ranch State Park that borders my Ranch.

Why they chose this property

Like most nature lovers, I love new adventures so I created a fun spot for hikers, horse and mountain bike lovers to visit and bring their own horse or Mountain Bike. The Ranch is Private and Gated for your security. It has an elegant Cabin feel and borders Wilder Ranch State Park so you can enjoy wild animals visiting the Ranch daily such as Deer, Hawks, Bunnies, Coyotes, Bob Cats and maybe a Mountain Lion but Mountain Lions are nocturnal so you'll rarely see them but be careful... I've seen 4 Mountain Lions in 24 years... pretty exciting but Animals are unpredictable and can be dangerous so always hike with a walking stick and preferably with a Partner.

What makes this property unique

Santa Cruz Ranch is a unique property. There are very few properties as large and beautiful as this private ranch in this area. I love the beauty I get to live in daily and I wanted to share it with others.
I hope you take a moment to slow down, listen to nature and breathe the clean mountain and ocean air. I hope the beauty and peace will revive your spirit as it does mine daily.
