    San Francisco Chronicle Says

    For many years we have enjoyed our frequent visits ... It is a delightful old home in a beautiful setting. We always enjoy a glass of wine on the deck overlooking the rugged San Lorenzo River. For dinner there are many fine restaurants in the area, or sometimes we take the short drive to Santa Cruz for seafood. The rooms are very lovely and very comfortable.

    Each morning we were served an elegant breakfast by our hosts, Gael and Jack. It is a perfect place for family gatherings or quiet business meetings.
