We are located at 123 Gharkey Street, 1/2 block off West Cliff Drive above Cowells Beach in beautiful Santa Cruz, CA.  The photo above was taken from the cliffs near the corner of Gharkey Street and West Cliff Drive, less than 100 yards from our cottage.

Our cottage is an easy walk to the Santa Cruz Municipal Wharf, the historic Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk, Main Beach, Cowells Beach, and some fine restaurants and shops.  Head 1/4 mile the other direction, and you're watching surfers at world-famous Steamer Lane.  Further along West Cliff, you'll find several smaller, less populated beaches and coves along the way to Natural Bridges State Park-- where Monarch Butterflies make a twice-yearly stop on their annual migration.
