625 sq ft one bedroom vacation rental with top of the line amenities: fully stocked gourmet kitchen, sumptuous bathroom, and cozy and romantic bedroom with new memory foam mattress. Ideally suited for an adult couple traveling alone, or with well-behaved pets. Works equally well for short or longer term visits. Eastlake Victorian carriage house, architecturally stunning. Owner received green design award for historic renovation. This unit exudes the charm of a bygone era, but has all the conveniences of modern living. Balcony overlooks main property, garden, and scenic West Cliff Drive. Peek ocean view from balcony. Private on-site parking and plenty of privacy, yet only minutes away from world-class dinning, a dream-like 10k jog/run/stroll right outside your doorstep, scenic vistas, and many opportunities to recreate and enjoy the great outdoors. Owner provides complimentary coffee, decaf, tea, and beverages for your consumption. Garage space available for storage of larger items, and washer/dryer accessible for longer term guests (located in a shared space). Strictly no smoking, please. Pets are cordially welcome for an additional fee---please notify us in advance if traveling with your animal companion.

Also please note: we are fortunate to have temperate, usually quite pleasant weather in Santa Cruz. Due to the historic nature of the building, we were not permitted to install an A/C unit. Please plan accordingly if booking during hot Summer months.

Just dreamy
The perfect place to get away from it all. The location on West Cliff Drive is amazing, with all the scenery, wildlife, and people watching you could ever want. But the Carriage House itself feels entirely serene and quiet. On the second floor, you can get a peep of the bay and the wharf, birdwatch, appreciate the tree tops, and just barely hear the sea lions barking. The furnishings are comfortable and beautiful. And the bathroom omg the bathroom. My husband and I are now discussing how we can refurbish our bathroom to be more like this one. We hope to be back soon!

Santa Cruz Getaway
My husband and I stole away an extended weekend to celebrate our Anniversary. This beautiful, relaxing, and stunning carriage house is located north of the boardwalk and south of the surf museum and surfers coves. We spent the entire time walking leisurely along the promenade, loving every moment, preparing food from the sweet open kitchen. The place is so cute with outstanding details that felt so completely home and personal. We cannot wait to return ASAP.

Westside Santa Cruz Carriage House
I absolutely loved staying at the Epworth Carriage House! It was so clean and comfortable and Khristina was very helpful and communicative. The location was perfect and I can't wait to go back to Santa Cruz and stay there again.

Santa Cruz Gem
My wife and I enjoyed a fantastic four night stay with our little dog as part of our 20 year wedding anniversary. The Carriage House is tastefully decorated, well appointed, cozy and comfortable. A modern vintage look and feel. We appreciated all those touches in such an ideal and convenient location. Great neighborhood, walk to beaches, surfing and wharf views and a short drive to other interests. A keen ear can hear the surf and call of the sealions. Santa Cruz is very dog friendly, he thoroughly enjoyed himself, going everywhere we went. We hope to return to continue our adventures. Thanks for everything. Best, John & Andrea

A Fabulous Hidden Gem!
Khristina's carriage house is a perfect place to stay if you're looking for relaxed quiet elegance in an intimate setting. It's ideal location makes walking to the beach, Boardwalk, downtown Santa Cruz or just strolling along West Cliff Dr perfect any time of year. Khristina is a wonderful host and makes you feel like family the moment you arrive. My wife and I are already planning our next visit... it's just that good!

Very Pleasant Area and Accommodations
The carriage house is in a great location in a nice neighborhood. It's an ideal place for walking to the wharf or along West Cliff Drive. Khristina is very responsive and pleasant. The carriage house is just as it looks in the photos, very comfortable and charming. I had a very nice vacation here.

Delightful
Our stay in the carriage house was all we hoped it would be and more. It was beautifully restored with great attention to detail. The room was open, bright, airy and a delight to be in. It is a 30 second to the ocean. Khristina was welcoming and gave us history on the carriage house that was really interesting. We loved everything about our stay here and look forward to coming back!!
