About This Home
As of September 2025This charming 1930s cabin offers a perfect blend of rustic charm and modern updates. Just a 7-minute drive from Aptos Village and a 1/2 mile walk to the 10,000-acre Forest of Nisene Marks State Park. Thoughtfully updated with a new roof, fresh paint, new flooring, and more, this multi-level cabin, built with virgin redwood, is a serene retreat nestled among the majestic redwoods. Cozy up by the stone fireplace or unwind in one of the two luxurious clawfoot tubs after a day of outdoor exploration in the forest or at the beach! With its unique history as a former camp counselors cabin, this delightful home is ideal for anyone seeking a peaceful escape in a natural setting while staying close to town.
