Summary: I came for a week of solitude and writing. The carriage house was a perfect setting: very comfortable bed, living space, great bathroom and kitchen fully stocked. I loved ending my day sitting on the balcony. The location is ideal if you love to stroll by the ocean and take in the unique scene of Santa Cruz. The pictures are very are accurate, except they don’t show the two comfy reading chairs next to the round dining table. Khristin is such a kind and gracious host! I highly recommend her home!!

Summary: We loved our stay. The cottage was literally steps to W. Cliff Drive with its trail along the ocean cliffs on the Westside of Santa Cruz. It was easy to see why the owner had won awards for restoration of the Carriage House. It was both beautiful and so thoughtfully done. Every day we noticed new details that were thematic, considerate or just pretty. Those little "surprises" were themselves a pleasure. Everything from the "horse" theme to the detail of the hardware chosen to the beach glass appearance of the sconces to the fact that every pan or utensil I wanted for the cooking I did I was able to find. It was really perfect.One last thought. The bed was so comfortable. The older I get the more leery I am of sleeping anywhere other than my own bed. I slept VERY well at the cottage. I'm sure the sounds of the ocean enhanced that great mattress.

Summary: She was so amazing! We were there for a race of mine and had forgotten some things and she was so quick to offer help. It was so sweet and helped reduce my stress so I could focus on the race. Perfect location and space. So cute and comfy bed, which was much needed! I could go on but I think I’ve made my point. If I come back to do this race again, I will definitely want to stay here.

Summary: My husband & I & our dog, Lottie, just returned from a wonderful four night stay at this wonderful cottage. It is a cozy nest. This was the perfect place for a romantic get-away. Khristina has lovingly converted an old carriage house on her historic property into a guest cottage. I love to cook! The kitchen is fantastic with a gorgeous vintage style gas stove/oven. To fit the style of her cottage, she has an amazing Smeg retro-style refrigerator. There were plenty of cooking supplies/utensils. Khristina is a warm, kind wonderful host! She is so friendly & knows so much about her neighborhood. She even brought us an unexpected bottle of amazing wine. I was an enologist/assistant winemaker before I retired & I know how special this wine was...plus we drank it & it was outstanding. I highly recommend this amazing property. Yay!

Summary: We loved our time in the cottage and the host was extremely helpful. We cannot wait to visit again.
Karen P. Jun 6, 2024 09:04:31 AM
Summary: The perfect place to get away from it all. The location on West Cliff Drive is amazing, with all the scenery, wildlife, and people watching you could ever want. But the Carriage House itself feels entirely serene and quiet. On the second floor, you can get a peep of the bay and the wharf, birdwatch, appreciate the tree tops, and just barely hear the sea lions barking. The furnishings are comfortable and beautiful. And the bathroom omg the bathroom. My husband and I are now discussing how we can refurbish our bathroom to be more like this one. We hope to be back soon!
Mary S. May 25, 2024 04:47:08 AM
Summary: The property is right across from the seashore and Khristina was a kind and attentive host.
Shannon S. Oct 4, 2023 09:21:51 AM
Summary: My husband and I stole away an extended weekend to celebrate our Anniversary. This beautiful, relaxing, and stunning carriage house is located north of the boardwalk and south of the surf museum and surfers coves. We spent the entire time walking leisurely along the promenade, loving every moment, preparing food from the sweet open kitchen. The place is so cute with outstanding details that felt so completely home and personal. We cannot wait to return ASAP.

Summary: I absolutely loved staying at the Epworth Carriage House! It was so clean and comfortable and Khristina was very helpful and communicative. The location was perfect and I can't wait to go back to Santa Cruz and stay there again.
