Peaceful Modern Retreat at East Creek

This beautifully-updated, Ranch-style home is the luxury version of your family's cabin in the woods. Tucked away in this peaceful location, you'll be treated to fine wood touches throughout the house, private outdoor space, and above-and-beyond hospitality. The spacious open living area boasts a vaulted ceiling, lavish full kitchen, and a custom, wood-burning fireplace that can be enjoyed inside or from the kitchen patio. Your gracious hosts provide an abundance of extras such as wood for the fireplace and fire pit, pantry staples as well as cooking oil and spices, and a seasonal Cornhole set. With an on-site washer and dryer, you'll barely need to pack anything!

In the outdoor space, you'll find a state of the art outdoor kitchen with a built-in gas grill, ample counter space, and sink so you can host a first-class cookout with a forest and garden view. As evening falls, gather around the fire pit of your choice (wood-burning or propane) and recap the day - a story you'll be telling for years.

This location is a 10-minute drive to downtown Felton and 20-minutes to Santa Cruz. Felton is a cozy small town located in the redwoods with various outdoor activities including Mount Hermon, Roaring Camp Railroad, Henry Cowell Redwoods State Park, Fall Creek Wilderness Trails, and UCSC Mountain Biking Trails which is next to Wilder Ranch. Humble Sea Brewing, Sushi San, and Redwood Pizza are some of the highlighted restaurants in Felton as well as Casa Nostra in Ben Lomond. Fantastic local grocery store Wild Roots.

You will have full and private access to main home, outdoor spaces, and driveway for parking. There is an attached garage and living space above that are not included in this listing. There will be an on-site manager to assist with any urgent items or requests.

INTERACTION WITH GUESTS:

Family trip
We enjoyed three nights at this beautiful property while we visited Henry Cowell State Park, Santa Cruz, Pinnacles National Park and San Jose. It was immaculate and the perfect space for my husband and I and our two young adult kids - liked that we could easily sit as a family in the living room, and also enjoy some time alone in the nice size bedroomz.bedrooms.also enjoy

Best house I’ve ever rented
Everything you see in the photos is absolutely accurate. It’s gorgeous, VERY clean, the most well appointed kitchen ever (no need to bring your knife sharpener), towels are great, beds are comfy. The host contact is fantastic! She’s very communicative in a relaxed way. I felt like I could text if I needed anything and she was great to talk to. Very thankful for this experience and will recommend to anyone who will listen!

Beautiful house in the woods
My family wanted a weekend away together before my fiance and I get married & my brother & his wife have their first child and this was a perfect location / house! The house feels remote, but is close to Santa Cruz for the beach as well as to some amazing state parks for hiking. Jenni was a great communicator - proactively letting us know where to park, best way to drive to the house, and how to ensure the house stayed cool. We had a great time together and it was a perfect stay. Thank you so much for hosting us!

Hottest Weekend Not That Bad
Very nice house in the redwoods. Dog friendly with dog bowls and cute beds. When I saw that there was a heat and fire warning with temps in the high 90s (July 4th weekend, 2024), I messaged the host that we had a problem with no AC. The owner said nobody in the Santa Cruz mountains has AC, as it's never been needed. This was the hottest weekend in the four years the owner has had the property. The wonderful on-site hosts, Jeni & Ryan, closed all the shades and got out the box fans for us. When it would start to cool off around 5 or 6 pm, we'd open the windows and put the fans in them for the 60 degree night. That cooldown would last until around noon the next day. So it was really only uncomfortable from noon to 6 or 7 pm. My in-laws rebooked their hotel with AC instead of joining us, due to the heat and their age, but I think they would have been okay. The shade of the redwoods helps a lot. The skylight in the great room has no shade and heated the house up the most. But there's also a huge ceiling fan in the great room. Climate change sucks, but being in a shady redwood forest is the best you can do without AC, which harms the ozone layer. Fantastic house, very comfy bed, would stay there again.

Spectacular in every way!
In a word, it was perfect! The home is lovely and has everything you could need, the co-host on property is responsive and kind, and the location is superb. If you are driving down from northern CA, the one pro tip is to remember to follow the directions given from the host before your stay. If you forget like us, you will drive through some very lovely, but VERY tricky to navigate, terrain. All their local suggestions are great, and we enjoyed our holidays in this wonderful home so very much!

A wonderful stay among the Redwoods
Our family of four adults loved our stay. The house provided a most comfortable stay for all of us. It is well equipped and the description is accurate. We had some very rainy days with cool temperatures so didn’t get to use the outdoor kitchen and seating area. But we were snug inside enjoying everything about the interior. When it wasn’t raining we explored some of the numerous redwood hiking trails nearby. The on-site manager is an excellent communicator and responded promptly to any question we had. This is a wonderful place to stay.
