Photos and Description of this Santa Cruz holiday house House, 2 Bedrooms, 1 Bath (Sleeps 4)

“Madeline’s Cottage” is our guest house located on Opal Cliff Drive in the best beach-side micro-climate in Santa Cruz County. We have the best beach weather and the quietest beach location in town! The cottage is set well off the street just a few doors from gated “Privates” beach (you’ll have use of a gate key during your stay). From here you can hear the waves crash and the seagulls call, and walk or bike to many local attractions: A five minute walk one direction will take you to the dining and night life of charming Capitola Village, five minutes the other direction leads you to the world-famous surfing area of Pleasure Point. Madeline’s Cottage neighborhood offers access to entertainment for every interest. Maybe you don’t feel like venturing out- or you have little ones and need to stay a bit closer to home? The cottage enjoys use and views of our award-winning garden and yard.

Further details for this holiday house rental in Santa Cruz, USA

More About the Property: Maybe you want to get out of the neighborhood? The more urban cultural attractions of downtown Santa Cruz are 15 minutes away. Maybe you don’t like that kind of culture? The Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk and its Giant Dipper roller coaster are also 15 minutes away. Due to the floor plan of the cottage it is best suited to couples and small families. The kitchen/dining area is light, bright, and roomy, and separate from the family room where the TV is located. The Garden bedroom has a queen bed and large closet, and looks through a big sliding door onto the garden, while the “Kids” bedroom is smaller and has a (two twins) trundle bed. The bathroom is located off the “Kids” room, so everyone had better be very close friends or family. Overall floor space of the cottage is ample for 4.

Madeline’s Cottage is located behind our own personal home on our 1/3 acre lot, so you will not feel wedged in amongst a lot of other vacation rentals, and we take pride in making your stay as pleasant as possible. It has a fully equipped kitchen with all utensils and basic spices and condiments, but if you have special needs please let us know. Also, if you have dust allergies and let us know a bit in advance we can remove all soft-surface flooring from the cottage. We’re looking forward to your visit!

Other Activities: Shopping, kayaking, racquetball, wildlife viewing, basketball court, boating, health/beauty spa.

Clean, Convenient and Comfortable

Guests of Five Sunnyvale, CA
Review Submitted: August 12, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
We (family of five) stayed four nights and enjoyed the cottage. The owners are friendly and helpful. The cottage is well maintained (clean) and kept in good shape. The master bed was very comfortable. The biggest plus for us was the access to the semi-private beach (about a 5 minute walk, roughly 10 houses down the road). The neighborhood is very nice and the location is a 3 minute drive to downtown Capitola.

Note to Owner - you may want to fix the door to the bedroom with the single beds. It doesn't close properly which gave my kids an excuse to wander out after bedtime.

Wonderful vacation

Review Submitted: August 9, 2009 Date of Stay: June 2009
We had the best vacation ever in Santa Cruz. The property was in walking distance to the beach and restaurants. We traveled with kids, and everyone enjoyed their stay.
The cottage is spacious and clean, the backyard is huge with mature tress and a beautiful garden. The owners made us feel completely at home. We are planning to return next year. Thank you for letting us stay in your cottage.
Maria, Eric and kids.

Loved It!!

boodgiebird Roseville, Ca , (Sacramento area), USA
Review Submitted: June 24, 2009 Date of Stay: June 2009
My husband, teenage daughter, her friend and myself stayed at Madeline's Cottage for 5 nights. I was nervous renting a place online, but we certainly were not dissapointed. We loved our stay. It is a well stocked, clean, charming, comfortable place to stay. Very relaxing. Close to all the great sites in Santa Cruz. Short walk to the private beach or the Portola Wharf. Short drive to Boardwalk..
What I loved was it is not right in the midst of the crowded Beach area. After enjoying what the area has to offer, it was nice to come "home" and kick back in a quite, relaxing evironment, BBQ, cook in a fully stocked kitchen...very nice.
The only drawback was the bathroom with is in the front bedroom, we (parents) had to walk into the girls room to get to the bathroom, but not a huge issue if your comfortable with your group.
The owners are very gracious, wonderful people.
We will go back again.
