A beautiful camping retreat tucked away among the redwoods, far from the noise and stress of daily life. It really felt like a little slice of nirvana. The hosts were warm and welcoming and made us feel instantly at home.
The setup was simple but thoughtfully done. The heated outdoor shower worked well, and the composting toilet was perfectly clean and odor-free. A campfire was already set up for us, so all we had to do was light it, and the candles and solar lanterns around the campsite made the evening feel especially magical.
I missed the note that guests should bring their own pillows, sleeping bags, and water, but the hosts graciously helped us out, which we really appreciated. I also joined the onsite morning yoga class, and it was fantastic.
We had a wonderful stay and will definitely be back soon!

The SOL was the Memorial Day Weekend reset my best friend and I needed. Vaza was an amazing host and our only regret is not being able to talk to her more. We really enjoyed our stay in the cabana and the sunset views were amazing. The cabana was comfortable and so cute!! Vaza was easy to reach and communicate with, I definitely recommend staying here!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the sky view cabana! Vaza, our host, and her husband were nothing short of kind and generous. There were very responsive to all our questions and helped our trip feel seamless. The cabana itself was soothing and very immersive in nature. We were offered many amenities and our view every night/morning was beautiful. We would definitely recommend for a nice, relaxing getaway. Make sure to plan ahead for directions, as wifi can get spotty, but overall we are so grateful to have had such a great experience! 5/5

Our stay was wonderful. Vaza was kind, generous, and always available to help. The tent was private with a stunning view exactly like the photos. The jacuzzi and showers were excellent. Everything matched perfectly, and we highly recommend it - we will definitely be back!
Vaza made us feel completely at home. Her warmth and care truly turned the stay into something special. There is also something very spiritual and peaceful about this land; it gave us the space to reconnect and create the kind of body-and-mind bond we really needed. G&H

SOL is truly a special place for finding serenity in nature. It has everything you need for a getaway and offers both comfort and seclusion, which is hard to way. Vaza and the family are amazing hosts who are always willing to help while giving guests space. Will definitely come back to this place again.

This is a very special place. The feeling of comfort, quiet, and private surrounding nature is exactly what you’ll get coming here.
Inside:
My partner and I stayed in the sky view cabana, it was an absolute blessing to have a private shower, sink, hot water kettle, mini fridge (that actual gets cold) and a king size memory foam bed. A+ camp. There were towels provided but bring your own if you want to enjoy the hot tub!
Outside:
You have access to your own outside space, with two hammocks/ outside chairs, gas fire pit, and shared (with other sites): Propane grill on the deck, and outside toilet, a few yards away.
Place:
The property is breathtaking, the work Vaza and her family put into this place really is magical. There is a peace that drifts through here that heals. Make sure you check out the wellness center, the peace here and full tatami flooring, and absolute work of art. Say hi to the chickens, and maybe get lucky to see a dog or owls.
Thank you Vaza, for your great hospitality, your gift of community and healing, keep spreading love and positivity. This is somewhere we will return to in the future.

The glamping tent was super cozy and comfortable. Vaza and Ludo were so kind and accommodating, making sure we were comfortable. The hot tub was perfect after several days paddling in the pacific!

Our stay in the Sunset Cabana was serene and relaxing with an amazing view of the forest. Waking up to the morning light on the trees was so lovely. The cabana itself is so well built and cozy! The BBQ and deck has incredible views of Santa Cruz. We didn't get a chance to get in the hot tub but I so appreciated having it there. The host Vaza is friendly, gave us some great recommendations for hiking, and helped us get settled in. I would absolutely come back and highly recommend!

Vanessa had a stunning home and we were so lucky to be able to enjoy relaxing there! The sunset views were absolutely unmatched and the stars were beyond beautiful.
Be aware that the ladders can be a bit difficult to navigate up to the loft in a stable manner if you're taller/ larger. But other than that, incredible!

It’s been a few days since our trip to this location, and after being back home, I genuinely cannot recommend this spot enough. The hosts were very attentive and kind, but also we felt so private and alone. The land itself is beautiful, and the cabana we were in was absolutely stunning with gorgeous views of the trees and land over the hills. The hardest part for me was the loft bed as getting up and down the ladder was a little nerve-wracking. But after you get used to it, it is beyond worth it.
The drive up to the property was a little challenging, but if you are used to small mountain roads and listen to the speed limit signs, it really isn’t that bad. And again, SO worth it. The entire trip was so peaceful and lovely, I completely forgot to take any pictures. Amazing little spot, will be back!

My partner and I had such a peaceful and relaxing anniversary weekend on the sacred owl land. The views were incredible, the nights were magical listening to the owls and frogs!
Although this cabin is located close to the ocean and so much beauty, we chose to spend the weekend enjoying the land. The chickens were adorable, and the hot tub and deck were extra relaxing. We will definitely be coming back!

My partner and I had a lovely stay here for two nights. The bed has an amazing view in the morning and the property is great, with a shared hot tub and chickens roaming around.
We used the BBQ to make one of our meals, there is no stovetop so best to plan your meals accordingly if you plan to eat them there. There is a mini fridge and some dishes. The hosts were super helpful and let us borrow a couple of things for cooking.
Recommend arriving during daylight the first time as there are winding roads.
We would love to come back, thank you!

Nestled in the the Santa Cruz mountains, this spacious land has wonderful views out over the valley to the ocean edge. The cabana is tiny yet cozy with all the essentials for a peaceful, comfortable get-away. Ludo was very welcoming and quickly got us settled in.
The cabana has a shower andnsink. A compostable toilet is a short, easy walk away. A small fridge, electric tea pot, French press, mugs, cutlery, ground coffee and an assortment of herbal tea are provided. Although there's access to a community gas grill, we chose to bring our own camp stove. You will need to bring your own plates and bowls.
Outside the canana are a gas fire place and 2 chairs.
The view from the cabana is wonderful, surrounded by dense trees for excellent privacy.
A couch and small table gave us a comfortable place to sit at night and enjoy a cup of tea before climbing the ladder to the loft. The mattress was a good mix of squishy and supportive with a warm comforter.
There are electric lights in the cabana - but bring a flashlight for nighttime trips to the toilet.

The cabana was a perfect piece of Monterey Bay. The views were great and the space was very comfortable. The bed was especially nice. Very serene and met all expectations.

Amazing experience! Great view of the mountains from the Cabana. Loved the deck overlooking the bay (I will make sure to pack my yoga mats next time). I was hoping to watch the sunset from my Cabana but it rained almost the whole day. But the clouds and mist on the mountains were no less of a visual treat. You can watch them slowly move as you sip our tea. I’d love to go again. The hosts were super nice.

We had a great time in the Sky View Cabana! Ludo and Vaza were excellent hosts. The cabana is nestled in their backyard, but feels quite private with a beautiful view of the valley below. The bed was super comfy and the cabana was stocked with a mini fridge, sink, shower, towels, coffee, and a few kitchen essentials like mugs and cutlery. We lounged on the hammocks, went for a walk through the woods, and enjoyed the sunset on the deck. Fantastic getaway!

The place is beautiful and has a positive energy all around it. When we did our yoga and meditation we felt so good and vibrations were very positive. They have taken good care of land. Keep up the great work.

The Sacred Owl Land was absolutely magical. Nothing can beat the views. The sky cabana was lovely and it's clear that Vaza and Ludo care deeply and respect the land. Would absolutely stay here again.

The land was dreamy, the cabana was so comfortable and perfect, and I couldn't get enough of the view.
I feel like I could have sat on that chair and watched every species of bird pass by.
The hosts are lovely and welcoming, and I felt like I got exactly what I needed from my stay.

We had such a great stay in the glamping tent! The place is super peaceful and beautiful, and the tent itself was really clean, roomy, and the beds were super comfy. We loved hanging out by the outdoor fireplace in the evening—it was such a nice bonus. The views were amazing, and the hosts were so welcoming and generous with the space. We felt right at home. We’ll definitely be back and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a cozy getaway in the Santa Cruz Mountains with stunning views.

We had an amazing stay at Sacred Owl Land!
Fabian and Zeus were amazing hosts and the views are so much more beautiful in person. The mini cabin was quaint and comfortable for us as a couple. As we visited for July 4th weekend, we had a perfect view of all the surrounding towns firework shows!
Would highly recommend :)
