Better than we had hoped for
Elena & Oleg were perfect, communicative hosts. We unfortunately arrived close to 10pm, but they were kind enough to wait for us to show us briefly around the property and explain details (they even helped us bring our takeout dinner into the place & personally delivered water bottles for us when we were unsure of if we could drink from the tap)! HUGE points especially for the spa. Oleg said they just finished making it recently, and it was absolutely perfect (sauna, cold bath, jacuzzi, music, essential oil diffusers). It was my husband’s first spa experience and he was blown away. Thank you so much to Oleg & Elena, again. We loved the stay, and know you will too!

If you need a break, this is the place! Quiet, beautiful, and welcoming is this property in a nutshell. Comfortable bed, places to sit and eat, or chill out on the couch. The property is amazing with walking trails, stellar views, and friendly hosts

Wonderful retreat, great host, cozy room
Was absolutely awesome. Host got us flowers, left a bottle of wine in the room, gave a tour of the property. The room was clean and comfortable. It was truly lovely. I just wish the spa, hot tub and pool was constructed and ready... I guess we'll just have to come back!

Remote and beautiful
A beautiful, eclectic studio we rented for a concert in the area. The drive is curvy and at night slow going. Also the bathroom is not as private as some would want, but has beauty. The host was attentive and warm.

Strategic retreat
Retreat is a recognized military tactic, but it applies to leisure time as well. This place a strategic retreat. Quiet, beautiful and isolated. Pack up some good food and wine because you are not going to want to leave once you navigate the winding road through the Santa Cruz mountains and get here. The grounds are lovely and the accommodations nicely done and more than comfortable. This is a place for quiet walks, leisurely meals and sitting in the shade enjoying the breeze.

Perfect remote spot for us
This studio was ideal for us. For all being in one room, the studio is excellently laid out, and incredibly clean. With an electric kettle and hot plate- you can nearly get along like you have a full kitchen! We immediately felt at home, and loved how quiet and restful it was. It is quite the drive up the mountain. Any guest planning to run in and out of town may not find it the best fit, but if you want a gorgeous mountain experience this is the place for you.
