Just down the street is one of Santa Cruz's most popular beaches, dog-friendly and lifeguarded Twin Lakes Beach, where you can reserve a fire-pit at night to stoke up a roaring bonfire, play some volleyball, or just relax at one of the outdoor tables on the sand of the seaside cafes and restaurants nearby. Just steps away from Snug Harbor, you may choose to rent a kayak or paddleboard at the Kayak Connection, or stop in for dinner at the Johnny’s Harborside Restaurant. After the Harbor activities wind down for the day, you’ll appreciate how quiet this neighborhood is at night, as you relax and enjoy the comfortable amenities within the Snug Harbor.

Summary: All in all it was fine. The dishwasher didn’t work so we could not run dishes. Also, the Nextdoor neighbors parties until the early morning. Not very quiet.

Summary: We rented last minute - the property managers were wonderful with my questions. The site is spectacular across from the yacht harbor and a short distance from the beach and great for scenic walks with our dog - this property allows dogs. But it’s pristine and doesn’t have a dog smell or vibe. Well-stocked kitchen (thanks for coffee!) sumptuous towels and linens. All in all a great long weekend. Fireplace made the rainy parts of the weekend very cozy! We loved it. Our family in town made more of it for other guests!

Summary: This location was the perfect holiday getaway for my wife, dog, and me. The house was just the right size, and everything inside was laid out perfectly. Everything we needed and more was readily available. Also, this house was immaculate; we've stayed at many rentals, and this location was the cleanest house ever. The location is perfect; you are a few walking minutes away from the beach, harbor, trails, restaurants, stores, and more. My family will gladly stay here again in the future. I can't recommend it enough!

Summary: We have rented no less than 10 properties in Santa Cruz over the last decade and this one tops the list as the most fun for our family of teen girls. The location is central to so many activities - beach, harbor, lighthouse, the Boardwalk, surf spots, etc. are all a walk or short bike ride away. With this in mind, the owners have generously provided bikes, beach toys, chairs, even firewood for beach bonfires. The square footage is small but there are 3 outdoor areas to spread out so we never felt cramped and honestly very rarely were indoors. The layout works well and the bunk room has a heavy door that blocks out noise from the rest of the house so the kiddos can sleep. A few things to note that may be relevant is there is no air conditioning which is common for Santa Cruz homes. There are only a few weeks out of the year it is needed but should you happen to be there during one of the few hot weeks you will feel it. Also note that the entrance is up a full flight of stairs so those with mobility challenges may need support. Overall a super fun and comfortable stay. One of our favorites so far in Santa Cruz and we have done many. Thank you for sharing your snug harbor home.
