Redwood Nook (8 min walk to redwood state park)

Summary:
Tucked just steps from Henry Cowell Redwoods State Park and a short walk to downtown Felton’s shops and restaurants, this tiny standalone studio offers a no-frills, affordable home base for exploring the Santa Cruz Mountains. The studio sits at the back of a shared property that also includes two other rentals ("Redwood Oasis" and "Redwood Grove").

The Space:

Please note: The kitchen sink also serves as the bathroom sink, and there is no separate vanity.
