Great Family Friendly Rental!!

Our family had such a great time staying at Blacks Beach Retreat last spring that we've rented the house for another week this year. The pictures and online description of the property were very accurate, and we were pleasantly surprised to find the house was even more "stocked" with essentials than we had expected! The back patio is very private and a great place to relax (we loved that we could hear the waves crashing on the beach!). We also found the sun deck off the master bathroom to be a great feature. The furniture in the house is very comfortable, and we loved relaxing by the gas fireplace during the chilly evenings. Not that we spent much time on our computers, but it was a great convenience to have wireless internet access in the house. We were thrilled to find such a great house that is pet friendly, as we brought our labrador retriever with us for the week. Although the house is pet friendly, you would never know that dogs had been in the house since it was very clean! The house is a very short (less than a block) walk to the beach, which was perfect for our young daughter and our dog. We also walked to the harbor nearly every day for coffee and one evening for dinner at the Crow's Nest Restaurant, which was very good. We found the location of the house to be very convenient - just a short drive to downtown Santa Cruz or the boardwalk. We could not recommend this house enough! Thanks Laurie for a great family vacation!
