I love checking out the seals resting on the joists at the end of the wharf. Here there are cutouts to allow viewing. There is no better view of the coast, and no other place to have such immediate variety of people and animals to watch.

Three communities that rose during the 19th century remain and charming historic villages. We enjoy all three, but also selected special places to visit in Santa Cruz, and along the Central Coast.

Best German food we have found in the state. Friday night is wild game night, Thursday is the big buffet (I would still order off the menu). Lots of Charm, dinning room fireplace or chose the covered porch with Redwood trees growing out the porch. We are saddened that the wonderful fountain was removed by the former property owner when the land changed hands.
