Bicycle Shack @ La Honda Pottery

My place is close to miles of hiking and biking trails in county parks and openspace, great views, the beach and not far from the Peninsula, S.F. and Santa Cruz. You’ll love my place because of the location, the people, the ambiance, the outdoors space and that it is a self contained small cabin with a tiny deck.. My place is good for couples, solo adventurers, and furry friends (pets). Perfect for hikers and bikers.
