Dog-Friendly Cottage Near Premier Surf Beach

Summary:

Palisades Cottage is a dog friendly property located just blocks from a premiere surf beach!



The Space:

Tastefully furnished with a modern yet comfortable design, this Pleasure Point Cottage is dog-friendly and perfect to gather family and friends.  Short-term Rental permit #221198.



Three bedrooms - one with a king size bed and two bedrooms with queen size beds -, two and a half baths, plus a large recreation room complete with a pool table and an extra queen bed and closet.  A large deck, complete with a BBQ and a teak patio table and chairs, leads out to a spacious and private yard that is a botanical pleasure. One dog is allowed with the payment of a $50 non-refundable pet fee.



Enjoy wine tasting; surfing; cycling; walking trails, beaches & tide pools!  Rinse off in the hot outdoor shower after a long day at the beach.  Stargaze in the tranquility provided by a cul-de-sac facing a green zone yet steps away from the beach.



A range of reef and beach breaks can be found along the pleasant stretch of coastline outside the door. This sunny house is a quick stroll away from the sandy beaches of 26th Ave and Pleasure Point - home to world class surfing, boogie-boarding, and beautiful tide pools.  From the dog-friendly beaches to the restaurants and recreational activities, Pleasure Point provides all the benefits of the quintessential California life.



This beach family house is only a 5 minute drive to Capitola Village and a 10 minute drive to the Boardwalk yet it is tucked away on a quiet street in the neighborhood of Pleasure Point.  Only 40 minutes from San Jose International Airport and 1 ½ hours south of San Francisco.  Drive 45 minutes south to Monterey, Cannery Row, the famous Monterey Bay Aquarium and beautiful Pebble Beach and Carmel... the options are endless!

Quiet and convenient to the beach

This property is the perfect area for being in Santa Cruz. A 6 minute walk to the beach. The beach is not overly populated with people. The area is quiet. It is easy to get to the freeway as well as going over to the Beach Boardwalk area. Would definitely stay here again.

Relaxing beach stay

My friends and I had a great time celebrating our birthdays at the Palisades Cottage. I think the pictures don't do it justice. It's spacious, but cozy, and the backyard was a great space to hang out and grill up some dinner. Quiet neighborhood, walking distance to beach, and some good bird watching, too! Very pleasant stay overall.

Great location

This property was tucked away near the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, but close enough to walk to the beach. The house itself was clean and spacious and the backyard was beautiful. Check-in was a breeze and the property manager was immediately responsive to one small issue we had (that turned out to be insignificant). Beautiful place.

There was decent space for our group of 7. Dining room could be bigger, but the backyard had nice space- a dining table, fire pit, and nice area to sit. 5-10 min walk to the beach. Quiet neighborhood. I read previous reviews about not enough kitchen supplies, but when we stayed, there were enough pots/pans/dishes/cups for our needs, which included making/eating breakfast at the house.

Comfortable to large family

Stayed in November and was pleased with the property. It could really use a deep cleaning. The outdoor area is great size but the furniture is pretty worn. For the price I hope they can keep it up. Love the location.

Christmas Getaway

My family and I spent Christmas at the Pleasure Point home. It was very cozy and comfortable. Amazingly, the house is even nicer than the photos show. The backyard was lovely with a deck and fire table. Our 2 doggies loved the room to run around in the backyard, and the easy, short walk to the beach. I would definitely return again!
