Your Forest Getaway
Nestled in the Santa Cruz Mountains, The Crow's Nest Retreat is a spacious 5-bedroom, multi-floor home surrounded by old-growth redwoods. Wake up to deck views of the forest, gather around the indoor fireplace or the stone fire pit at night, cook together in the full kitchen, and unwind in the hot tub under the trees. With a dedicated game room, a third-floor office loft, and 30 minutes to Santa Cruz beaches, it works equally well for family reunions, friend getaways, workations, and peaceful escapes.

Our Story
A Place We Built for Gatherings
Nestled on Crows Nest Drive in the Santa Cruz Mountains, this retreat sits among old-growth redwoods where the only sounds at night are the creek and the trees.
We designed every detail with groups in mind: five private bedrooms so everyone has their own space, a full kitchen for cooking together, and a game room that becomes the heart of rainy-day fun.
Step outside to the hot tub under towering trees, gather around the fire pit after dinner, or take the scenic 30-minute drive to Santa Cruz beaches. This is the getaway you've been looking for.
