Seabright Cabin is a fully updated 1913 historic cottage in the Seabright neighborhood of Santa Cruz. We rent to mature adults over 25 years old. Home may be unsafe for toddlers and small children due to the loft. No pets.

Completely renovated from top to bottom. Walk to the beach, harbor, restaurants, coffee shops, and Boardwalk. One bedroom with queen bed. Open, light-filled floor plan creates an inviting space that feels much larger. Features include high-speed wireless internet, warm-water outdoor shower, gas BBQ, and stacking washer-dryer. Snugly insulated for comfort and quiet. Ceiling fans and double-hung wood windows circulate summer breezes, and a gas stove keeps things toasty warm on winter days. Driveway with uncovered parking for one car. All linens, beach gear, cooking and serving supplies, board games, DVD library included. Flat-screen TV with blu-ray, and Roku for streaming Netflix, HBO Max, and other content. No cable at this time. Youtube TV has live sports and news.

Front porch with antique chairs gets morning sun, perfect for enjoying your coffee or catching up on email. Back patio has a dining table with umbrella seating 4. Fruit trees provide shade and fresh fruit for summer guests.

Seabright Beach is a 6 minute walk and the Santa Cruz yacht Harbor is a 5-10 minute walk. The Boardwalk Amusement park is an easy walk (15 min and save the high parking fee), but geographically separated from our neighborhood by the San Lorenzo River so you don't get the crowds and traffic. Warehouse complex across the street has the popular Verve coffee roastery for your morning latte, and a rock climbing gym with yoga and other classes available for visitors. Great restaurants and coffee shops are on adjacent blocks. The home is centrally located so you're usually less than 10 minutes from almost anything you want to do in Santa Cruz.

We rent to mature adults over 25 years old. No pets.

    Thank you Katrina for a wonderful stay at your quaint cottage! We are checking out now. I never discovered the garbage disposal switch so therefore did not run it daily as requested

    We had a wonderful stay at this small but incredibly cozy house! The location is fantastic—right next to a coffee roaster with amazing coffee, and Seabright Ave is just around the corner, making it easy to walk to shops and restaurants. Seabright Beach is easily accessible, and the boardwalk is just a short distance away.The home itself was comfortable and thoughtfully set up, with a fun upstairs loft that our kids absolutely loved for sleeping. It made the space feel special and perfect for families. Having a driveway was a huge bonus, so we never had to worry about street parking.This place is also perfectly situated as a home base for exploring the nearby redwoods and the surrounding area. On top of everything, the host was extremely accommodating and responsive, which made our stay smooth and stress-free.We’d absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a cozy, well-located spot in Seabright.

    We had an exceptional stay at the Seabright Cottage. This is one of the best-equipped vacation rentals I've ever stayed in, and the rest of my party concurred. We've often found that vacation rentals have frivolous items that take up space OR not enough items to make the stay feel like visiting a friends house; this rental was like the baby bear's porridge - Just Right. The outdoor shower was lovely, and the washer and dryer were a HUGE plus. You can walk to almost all the top touristy spots in Santa Cruz, and the neighborhood is cute as a button. 5 Stars!!

    This is our second time staying at this property. We booked our vacation around when the place was available. The property feels like home and has everything you could possibly need for your stay. Communication with owner is fantastic. Home is located in a perfect spot for walking to both the harbor or boardwalk. Verve coffee is right across the street with also many places to eat within walking distance if you choose to do so. I highly recommend this property!

    Nicely renovated small house was fine for my husband and I for a few nights. We made most of our meals. The kitchen had everything we needed. The bed was very comfortable and the little gas stove warmed the entire house and was so cheery. We walked to the beach and admired the houses in the area.

    The location is great, it is close to the beach and harbor and other places that are fun. It is not a tourist location and I like that. Next to Verve Coffee roasting which makes a nice morning. Close to many local restaurants. Had everything we needed. Would return if we stay in Santa Cruz again.

    We had a wonderful stay at this 1 bedroom house in Seabright Santa Cruz. We loved the coffee shop (Verve) across the street and went each morning. This location was so close to everything we did. We also were close to the beach and enjoyed walks there. Katrina was great and we had a very smooth check in process.

    We stayed for a long weekend in October. Booking and check in were easy and very responsive. The cottage is just right for 2 people, the kitchen was very easy to cook in and well stocked. Ample storage for clothes in the bedroom and the bed was very comfortable. I was surprised how quiet the neighborhood was overnight. The bathroom sink area is tight if you’re a person who uses a lot of gadgets. The shower was good sized and water pressure was good. The surrounding neighborhood was fun to walk around and see all the different types of houses. The walk to Seabright beach was quick and easy. We received a discount on coffee and pastries from Verve Coffee across the street. We’d stay here again.
