Family Gem in the Redwoods, on Pacific Coast | Cabin in La Honda

Leave the news and stress, relax, ground and experience AWE - we can't wait to host you in our ancient sequoia forest home, the Redwood Terrace, right next to the Pacific Ocean! Bring family & friends, bask in the sunlight sneaking through the evergreens, enjoy the board games, Infinity Game table, foosball, fire pit, snacks and more. Mountain biking, hiking, wild & untamed CA coastal access all around you. Plug in your EV and charge up your memories at your family friendly home away from home.
Experience your own in-yard ancient grove of redwood forest (magnificent Sequoia giants), all in the same county of Silicon Valley giants. Charge your EV, while charging your family's memories around our in-house fireplace.
Dichotomies abound - because this is not only California, but specifically San Francisco's San Mateo County, and within that, this is La Honda, a Santa Cruz Mountains gem.
Our guests say...
We sit and listen to pelotons of bicyclists whiz by and hear their conversation between heavy breaths. Debating Sram and Shimano, and passing along venture capital deals.
We play "Name the supercar?" (when it's a motorcycle, we predict the number of cylinders), based on the exhaust timbre that echoes off of our mountainside.
After the mechanical exotica, we ground ourselves to the earth in the serenity of our home. Upward facing dog realizes the immensity of the redwoods within reach - truly, within three steps you can hug one. Our redwoods put a classical spin on the idea of a Millennial. And then ponder the things you've been meaning to do, then breathe out.
Pack the picnic bag because you've got to go gather a vial of sand 6 miles down the road at San Gregorio State Beach - because you've got the time. Mingle with people on their bucket list trip of California's Route 1 and tell them your story, too.
3 cars fit in the driveway in front of the garage.
Keypad access for the font door.
Central heat when you want convenience, with fans in each room when in need of a breeze.
Up the street is La Honda store for more wood, food, bicyclists, and conversation.
Pick up sandwiches, drive 0.5 miles up to Sears Ranch parking for an easy trail hike with wide open views and friendly cows. You can now bring your dog too!
After your hike, drive 0.5 miles back downhill to (in)famous Applejack's, which is now family friendly BBQ on Sat+Sun.
In San Gregorio, have a conversation about the world and making it better, while listening to live music and enjoying sweet treats from the local bakery, @LeMoonZest.
Fuel up with tots at Loma Mar store, then spend those carbs on a hike, bike, or bird-watching at Hoffman Creek Trailhead or Sam McDonald Park.
Then, on Skyline, Alice's Restaurant, where people gather from around the world to compare notes (and put on a show) about their cars and motorcycles, every day, single day, greet the sunset while enjoying a delicious dinner (with desserts from @LeMoonZest, again :)).
Old growth redwood forest nestled in the Troutmere / Redwood Terrace / La Honda Community.
3 parking spots in the driveway. Street parking 50 feet away. Absolutely amazing starting point for road bicyclists, and for mountain bikers too that want to take advantage of nearby trails (NOTE: no bicycling in the immediate residential area/up the narrow road). Also a great base camp for motorcyclists exploring the Santa Cruz Mountains' amazing roads, and grand touring roadtrippers.
EV charging for Tesla (bring your adapter), Taycan, Lucid, e-Tron, Rivian, Bolt, Volt, Kia, Hyundai, Mustang, you name the EV. 40Amp / 10kw charge rate, so you'll be topped up by the morning before you adventure for the day. This will be pass-thru billed to you via the simplicity of the app we'll share.
Pull out bed / couch, so if your party is more than 6 people, let us know!
We fill a fresh gallon jug of water, stock drinks and snacks for you in the fridge. Please, enjoy these as we share our place with you. Plenty of cooking equipment, spices, and more, because you want your food to taste the way you would make it. Consider this your home away from home, because it is. Same with the board games, the Infinity Game table, the foosball and chess tables, the cornhole, and the fireplace.
For those with kids - we can have a pack 'n play, a high-chair, and a jogging stroller in the house for your use, to help reduce your luggage that you need to lug around and pack. We even have toys and a Strider bike for your little one (with a helmet)!
Baggage can be dealt with later. Your time together starts now!
