Large Santa Cruz Beach House. Steps to beach. Pets welcome. Family. Reunions.
Perfect home for big families. Well stocked and clean. Beautiful location. Host was very informative on the workings of the house. The layout of the house is a bit odd, but it worked for our group of 10. Space for everyone.
