- "Amazing host. Beautiful location. The banana slugs are awesome." - "Nice house, beautiful setting. " - "Beautiful home with great amenities located in the Redwoods. Extremely well stocked. We were there for a wedding weekend and didn’t get the chance to relax enjoy the house but it is definitely a place to enjoy and unwind. " - "This is a very honest review. The cabin is absolutely beautiful. It is clean and remodeled with modern conveniences. It is a peaceful and serene place.The road to this cabin, which the owner tells you upfront is absolutely horrible. It is a 1 lane road that has hairpin turns, holes and will make you question your sanity of choosing this cabin. However, due to this road we chose to stay at the cabin and enjoy its tranquility instead of venturing out to explore. Also, this is not really a 4 bedroom cabin. Its really a 3 bedroom with an extra bed in a gameroom that people have to use as a go thru to the 3rd bedroom. Once again, something the owner tells you about if you read the description which we didn't totally understand. All in all if you would like to have a little peace and quiet to reconnect with the people you love and dont mind a little bit of a remote, off the beaten path cabin then this is the place for you. "

- "I spent my days amongst the giant redwood trees and wild turkeys walking by…a nice getaway from the hustle of life." - "it was easy to feel at home in this treetop sanctuary. We loved the easy access to Loch Loman recreation area. The deck was well appointed and provided easy outside dining. The only real downsides were the driveway and the steps. None of these were insurmountable problems. I plan on returning." - "This was the perfect location for us and our 2 year old son. We spent some time at the Roaring Camp Railroads and visited the Henry Cowell State Park. We also went down to Santa Cruz a couple of afternoons and played on the beach. This cabin was very close to lots of fun places but felt removed enough from the hustle and bustle of life. We loved it and would definitely return here in the future! "

Quiet, comfortable, with enough room for individual time as well as time for togetherness and great conversation. Very clean, well furnished, everything worked perfectly. There are steps up to the porch and between levels, and some uneven ground, so won't be ideal for anyone with real mobility issues. But I'm in my seventies, and it was absolutely fine for me. Being in the redwoods, it can get chilly, but put on a sweater and it's very comfortable. Even had a lovely conversation over coffee with the neighbor across the road! Just perfect. Can't wait to come back and stay longer."

Massive Redwoods surround you while you stay at this amazing retreat home in Mount Hermon. Any kids in your group will be blown away by the tree house bunk room with climbing wall. Relax in the back yard inside the spa, at the huge picnic table or on the adirondack chairs while enjoying the majestic giant trees.
Steps away from the adventure courses of Mount Hermon and many creek trails. Twenty minutes to the Boardwalk and 15 minutes to downtown Santa Cruz.
The space
This is a two story home.
The Upper level has:
1) Living
2) Dining
3) Kitchen
4) King Bedroom
5) Bath room
6) Laundry
Lower level has:
1) The Discovery Grove Bunk Room
2) The Roaring Camp queen bedroom
3) The Boardwalk queen room
4) Bathroom with shower
The home sleeps 10. Per the county rules: a maximum of 8 guests over age 8 are allowed. Children under 8 are allowed in addition to those 8 guests.
Bedroom 1: California King bed with memory foam mattress and Tempur-Pedic topper provides for a magical night's sleep. A comfy chair and a small TV are in the room. There is plenty of space in the closet for clothes and other items. The upstairs bathroom with tub/shower is right outside the bedroom door.
Bedroom 2: This bedroom is inspired by the Roaring Camp Railroad. Queen bed with memory foam mattress and Tempur-Pedic topper. Medium sized TV in the room. Standard closet and luggage racks. PLEASE NOTE: the bunk room access is through this room. So privacy is somewhat limited. The shelves in the room have board games for your group!

There is plenty of space for three cars in our parking spots front of the home. The road to the home is very narrow, so drive carefully and be mindful of neighbors.
Other things to note
While this home is set up for a medium to large group, this is not a party house. The home is located in the middle of a tightknit community and we ask that all guests be respectful of their surroundings.
Also, the access to the bunk room is THROUGH the queen bedroom. So privacy is somewhat limited for guests sleeping in the queen bedroom.
This house is in the middle of a redwood forest. Redwood trees are notorious for constantly dropping branches, fronds and seedpods. As such, the deck and yard will likely have these materials strewn about even if the house was just cleaned. Also, because it is a forest, the terrain can be rough in the backyard and may not be suitable for children who are prone to injury. Please keep an eye on your children while outside.
- "The Mt Hermon home was fantastic. The property itself is in the most beautiful place. We took a little hike - not exactly easy - but SO worth it! Skipping rocks by the waterfall. Our boys loved it! The property was so clean and well appointed. The art work in the bunk room was gorgeous and the boys loved the bunks and the bridge between them. My granddaughter found the boardwalk room to be delightful. CornHole. Hot tub under the patio lights. Trampoline. Tetherball. Games. This place is perfect for a vacation! Did I mention how clean it was?!"

- "It was a very nice complex of small homes. We rented all 3 for my family for my daughter’s wedding. It was very clean and comfortable. It did take a little time for communication by email. The program thru VRBO said we only rented 1 house 2 people. So that was a little scary. I thought it was a little pricey for private home. They should have flash lights because the whole town was with no power. They had a few solar path lights in front and driveway. The beds were comfortable. We were in the middle unit with king bed. Our room was cool but the rest of the house was very cold and set at same temperature. The pool was nice but they close at 8 pm we paid for heating the pool. But our rehearsal dinner and wedding took up most the time. So didn’t really use it. Just a quick dip for my 3 yr old grandson. But it served our purpose. It’s in a tiny little town with not much going on. But it was close to the state park relatively close to Ben Lomond. Comfortable for the family. "

- "Great location and amenities for our family of 4. Close to Felton and Santa Cruz favorites! You can walk to Henry Cowell State park, but to reach the redwood grove/loop trail, we took the VERY short drive and paid $10 parking to get right up to the visitor’s center. Great restaurants and food options nearby. The home feels fresh and well-decorated. Love the heated floor in the bathroom. The couch pulled out to bed was perfect for cozy TV time and there were plenty of extra pillows and blankets to meet our family’s needs. We will definitely be back :)"

The space
The Space
Our enchanting tree fort blends cozy charm with a touch of luxury. On the deck, you’ll discover illuminated stained glass windows, hand-painted doors, and soft lighting that creates a magical atmosphere among the trees. The deck features natural wood accents, a fire pit with Adirondack chairs, and a hammock for ultimate relaxation.
Inside, there’s a cute kitchenette for meal prep including a microwave, Keurig with coffee pods, toaster, kettle, and a Blackstone grill for outdoor cooking.
The A-frame canvas tent offers a lovely and spacious bedroom. The Casper queen bed provides a restful sleep with fresh linens and multiple pillow options. There is a reading nook with a lamp, 2 bedside tables with lamps, a chandelier, a chest at the end of the bed with extra blankets, & luggage racks.
While colder weather calls for warm clothing, the provided heated blanket and heater ensure the tent stays cozy.
In warm weather, you have the option to leave the tent open or use the mosquito screen (not usually necessary). A fan is provided as well.
For added comfort, the private attached bathroom includes an indoor/outdoor shower, toilet, sink, mirror, hair dryer, towels, soap, shower gel, shampoo & conditioner.
It will be an amazing experience however please keep in mind that it is outdoor living, and a little mess can come with the adventure. For example- redwood trees tend to drop leaves and tiny pinecones often and the tannin can stain items left outside. For that reason, we recommend storing clothing and other items inside the tent or bathroom. We also recommend storing food inside the cupboards (not the tent) so the tree squirrels don't try to help themselves.
Wildlife spottings have included deer, red tail hawks, owls (heard at night especially), blue belly lizards, frogs, turkeys, tree squirrels, raccoons, and rarely (if we're lucky) bobcats & foxes. Please be aware that mountain lions have been seen in the neighborhood. Have no fear, you'll be perfectly safe in the trees but we don't recommend taking a stroll at night.
Guest access
Enjoy complete privacy at Redwood Ridge Tree Fort, with the entire space exclusively yours. Tucked away at the end of a quiet mountain cul-de-sac, you'll experience minimal traffic. The tree fort is easily accessible via a short set of stairs near your designated parking area, with a porch light guiding your way if you arrive after dark. At the top of the stairs, you'll find a locking gate for added security.
You’ll feel miles away from it all but it only takes 5 minutes to get to the fun town of Felton.
