Let's have some vacation reality. An "attraction" to one person may not be the same for another. With its California Central Coast location in Watsonville, Freedom Rose Guest House is regionally central to Santa Cruz, Monterey, and Gilroy - and to attractions from simple to sublime.

That means one day you can enjoy the youthful pleasure of a hot dog on the beach in Santa Cruz. The next day find your self engaged in the elegance of old Monterey. On your third day you can indulge in premium outlet shopping in Gilroy (guilt free thanks to outlet prices). Each destination - Santa Cruz, Monterey, and Gilroy - is distinctly different, and each is an easy drive from Freedom Rose House in Watsonville, CA.

This of course is California, so there is much more to experience beyond beach walking, shopping and dining. Hosts Pam and Steve can fill you in with details, tailored to your idea of "Attractions" in the Monterey - Santa Cruz - Gilroy, California central coast region.
