My dog and I immensely enjoyed our at Emkay's cabin in Soquel in the Santa Cruz Mountains. This location was perfectly tailored to all of our needs and desires as we spent a brief but wonderful trip exploring the redwoods, mountains, and beaches of the Santa Cruz area. The property is easy to get to and comfortable to stay at, with a small handful of other cabins on the property which offered a congenial, fun environment while still allowing for privacy and peaceful relaxation in our own space. Most importantly for us, this is an extremely dog-friendly location to stay, which dog owners know can be very hard to find in searching for vacation lodging options. My dog was welcomed with open arms by Emkay and every other guest, and there is plenty of room for her to run off-leash as she pleased without any worry on my part for her safety. The creekside setting was perfect for quietly relaxing and watching my dog have an absolute blast. She had the time of her life even in just the few days we were in the SC area and much of that is thanks to Emkay and the friendly, comfortable, and welcoming setting their family provides. Emkay was responsive, friendly, helpful, and always there for any need or question, yet remained respectful of privacy and completely focused on making sure our stay in the cabin was optimal in all ways. I hope to come back with both my dog and my wife in the future for further adventures in this beautiful setting in the woods.
