Holiday rentals with a fireplace in Santa Cruz County

Kelley’s home exceeded expectations. Kitchen was nicely equipped. Everything was spotless. Very convenient, the host called, checked on us and could not have been more helpful or nicer. We’ll stay here again and recommend it to others.

We loved Lori's place, we felt at home when we walked in. It is located on a remote ranch and she let us bring our own horses and dogs, so we had a blast riding . Beautiful remote country of Arivaca! You want to be sure and bring all your groceries, the road is about 40 minutes from town. The house to us was just amazing. It has two full bedroom suites, each with private bath and shower. The showers are constructed out of a very cool stone, you feel like you are in a little cave. The home is stucco and very cool in the heat. The rooms each have a door to the outside and a wood stove/fire place. We lit the wood stove in the kitchen in the mornings to take the chill off and by mid morning we were in T-shirts again. We also loved the patio and we cooked hamburgers outside on the grill. It's all stone mason work too. And finally, the night sky! Talk about huge! We loved our stay and Lori is an awesome host. The Tres Ballotes is a beautiful remote ranch.

This large, eclectic house was a fun place to hang out and relax. There isn’t much to do around there (which we knew) and that was perfect for us. We hung out and played pool and polar plunged in the pool and played games and listened to the birds and relaxed. The caretaker was helpful and available. The outdoor hot tub was turned on at our request but it did not get hot at all. It was kind of warm. It was also a surprise to be told we should not flush any toilet paper. Both toilets have bidets but that water is cold! These were fairly minor issues for us, though, and we enjoyed our stay.

Great space with lots of room for everyone. Kitchen arrangement was a little awkward and higher quality pots and knives would have been appreciated but as expected for an airBnB. Jill was always responsive and was very accommodating to special requests. A great stay and exactly as expected. Get up for sunrise coffee on the porch, you won’t regret it!

The host went above and beyond in making us feel welcome. The environment inside and outside was very relaxing and we especially enjoyed watching the variety of wildlife, large and small, from the many view facing windows. It was a treat to see such a variety of birds up close to the home and to have an opportunity to explore for others nearby. Also, the close proximity of excellent hiking trails added to the enjoyment of the location. We look forward to a return visit to this special place.

We stayed at Sue’s Tubac home for an entire month. It was the perfect location for us as we loved being close enough to walk to town, to the Anza Trail, and to our nearby friend’s house. It was quiet, private and had a comfortable feel that we noticed right away. It was clean, beds were comfortable, the home had nice indoor seating spaces and an easy to cook in kitchen. The living room/dining room has nice views of the mountains….the colors were constantly changing. Sue’s home is very dog friendly which was a big plus for our pup. A great place to stay to explore lovely Tubac!

Lovely property and our stay was seamless. Thank you for sharing this beautiful piece of property with us!!

We had such an amazing stay! The house was absolutely spotless and had everything we needed to feel right at home. The views were breathtaking — waking up each morning to such beauty made it the perfect place to relax. We especially loved sipping our coffee on the patio while enjoying breakfast and taking peaceful walks around the area. The house is spacious with plenty of seating for everyone to gather and enjoy time together. The corn hole and shuffleboard were so much fun and added a little friendly competition to our trip. It truly had everything we needed for a comfortable and enjoyable stay. Thank you for making this getaway so memorable. We can’t wait to come back!

Emma gave clear instructions for how to access her home. Everything was as described and she was very quick to respond to communication. The space was perfect for what we needed and we enjoyed our stay.

What a perfect little place for a getaway. We visited a few wineries/breweries/distilleries and then came home to the Little Burro to taste our daily finds. It's close to good restaurants, some within walking distance. The Little Burro was clean, neat and had all the amenities anyone could need. We will be back!!! Thank you Sharon!

My wife and I had a great stay and look forward to returning! The place is quite spacious and feels very luxurious for the price. We only used the primary bedroom which is very nice. The bed is very comfortable with a thick memory foam pad. The bathroom is clean and efficient and everything works great! The kitchen is large and extremely well-appointed. Great options for fresh morning coffee - French press, K-pods, or Nespresso! Nice tea kettle for boiling water on the gas range. The patio offers a great outdoor space for relaxing, as does the spacious living room. The laundry machines available in the shed worked great for us. We drove an electric vehicle and it was really great to charge for free from the solar-powered level 2 charger! Highly recommended!!

It's a true gem. Quiet even though it is near I-19. This unit's layout makes it feel very roomy. Watch the stairs, though. Bring your dogs!

Emma was the best Airbnb host I’ve ever had! So flexible with my check in, went above and beyond to accommodate me during my stay! Definitely recommend!

This place ran with the local theme of birding. And that was nice since this felt like a cozy little human-sized bird house. Lovely place indeed. Only comments for improvements would be the ability to control the light strand on the patio and to get a drain plug for the tub, which would be useful for anyone traveling with kids. Still, wonderful place in a quiet spot in Patagonia.

Great place to stay with beautiful views very close to Tubac village and a wonderful pool and jacuzzi. Melinda is a great host and very easy to work with.
