We invite you to unwind in one of our two thoughtfully crafted cabana stays, each offering comfort, privacy, and expansive views of the surrounding landscape.
Each cabana features:
A beautiful queen-size bed or california King bed, loft style
Private indoor sink and hot shower
French press with coffee & tea (the tea is harvested from our land) and basic utensils

Access to a shared outdoor composting toilet
Guests staying in either cabana also enjoy access to beautiful shared spaces, including:
A hot tub under the stars
A communal fire pit
A BBQ area
A peaceful outdoor yoga deck with ocean views
Whether you're soaking in the tub, practicing morning yoga, or enjoying the stillness of the land, Sacred Owl Land offers a deeply nourishing experience for body and spirit. Located just 20 minutes from the beach and walking distance to a local winery, it's a perfect escape into simplicity and sacred beauty.
For movement and mindfulness, we offer both an outdoor yoga deck with ocean views and an indoor yoga shala for quiet practice or group sessions. Sacred Owl Land is ideal for retreating, gathering, or simply being.

Welcome to our cozy cabin nestled in the serene beauty of the Santa Cruz Mountains! Escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life and immerse yourself in the tranquility of the towering redwoods surrounding our charming studio-style cabin. Whether you’re seeking a peaceful getaway or an adventure-filled retreat, our cabin offers the perfect balance of relaxation and excitement.
We welcome one small pet (dogs only) to join in on the fun!
THE SPACE
The cabin, tucked under the coastal redwoods, features a comfortable queen bed, a bathroom with a hot shower, and a compact kitchenette for your convenience. A small fold-up desk and strong Wi-Fi are available if you need to work remotely during your stay.
Step outside and enjoy multiple lounge areas where you can relax amidst nature’s embrace, or fire up the BBQ for a delightful outdoor dining experience. A hot tub under a gazebo adds the perfect touch of luxury.

But the real highlight of your stay? Our private section of the creek, where you can dip your toes, bask in the sun, or simply savor the soothing sounds of flowing water.

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.

Weekend Trip to The Coastal Redwood Cabin | Creek
This is a lovely place to go for a little R&R! Easy to get to, serene location nestled within the redwoods. There's stairs that lead you to the river. Comfortable bed and good quality bedding, complimentary snacks and coffee. We went in November so the hottub was perfect for the cool nights. Close by Capitola, which we love to visit and did some hiking at Nisene Mark's State Park. We recommend this spot and may be back next year.

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!

This is a unique place to be sure. Loved being able to just walk around freely without clothes and feel absolutely one with nature. The family of deer were just cohabitating right there with you. Absolutely gorgeous yurt. Loved the amenities like the hot tub, sauna, lounge, etc.

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.

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 :)

My friends and I spent the most idyllic June weekend at Sacred Owl. In the morning we drove to the area, started our day with a nice long hike (you could go to the beach or surf too), and in the late afternoon arrived and got settled. The land itself is an absolute oasis. And the cabins make you feel like you're outside even when being inside. The trees surrounding the property are lush and you can see as far as the ocean, not to mention there are so many activities; think yoga overlooking wine country, reading or napping in a hammock, getting in the hot tub as the sun sets, grilling on the deck or building a little fire. We left feeling very rejuvenated by the land, and appreciate Vaza so much for sharing it!

Weekend Trip to Sacred Owl Land
I loved staying at the sunset Cabana, beautiful view of the orange sunset 🌅 fills your heat with warmth, beautiful nature experience, with animal sounds and the occasional Owl 🦉 howling. I Especially loved the shower in the Cabana with the view of the mountain ⛰️ great for a solo peaceful retreat, very safe and very serene. Only take is if you are not a loft bed person this may not be for you, if u r used to waking up at night. Otherwise absolutely 10/10.
