The cottage is within walking distance of Starbucks, an amazing italian deli, Sunday Farmer's Market, two taquerias and a great italian restaurant.
The cottage is behind our main home and has a charming, small yard and side entrance. We offer a Cal King Bed, Queen Sofa Sleeper and full kitchen.

The full kitchen offers an array of amenities including a Nespresso Coffee Maker, Milk Frother, Toaster/Oven/Air Fryer, Ninja blender, Ice Maker, Dishwasher, full-size oven and cooktop. We offer an array of coffees and tea.
The main bedroom has a Cal King bed and offers a large screen TV and full closet for storage.
The living room has a sofa sleeper that has a queen bed and includes a TV and Sonos system for music or TV.
The bathroom has a tub/shower combo with a jetted tub and handheld shower.
As we live close by, we are happy to provide special requests or offer additional speciality appliances if we have them.
Guest access:
The side yard and the front yard are your small outdoor oasis.

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Shannon Demma
I am an interior designer in Santa Cruz and live in the house in front of the rental with my husband and two teenage kids. We built and remodeled both our home and the cottage 20 years ago with a keen attention to detail and craft. We love our home and the neighborhood and hope to share it with our guests.
Why they chose this property
We love our expansive, sandy beach - beach walks and sunsets are the best. Our neighbor has some amazing local restaurants within walking distance along with the Sunday Farmer's Market.
What makes this property unique
The craft put into the home and yard. Every piece of wood and stone was placed with intention and a love of design and building.
