Among the redwoods of Santa Cruz, a cascading waterfall and meandering creek wind through the Babbling Brook Inn. This historic bed and breakfast offers 13 guestrooms, each with cozy featherbeds and private baths, and many include fireplaces and whirlpool tubs. Delight in sumptuous fresh-baked cookies upon arrival, and join us in the 90-year old main house each day for a homemade breakfast, and afternoon wine and cheese service. The Babbling Brook Inn is a romantic oasis, offering a unique and rustic retreat within the vibrant beachside community of Santa Cruz.

My bf and I stayed here for my birthday last year. It was a spur of the moment kind of trip. We found the Babbling Brook in the Fern Grotto which is right next to the brook. I fell in love with this place. The beds are ridiculously comfortable. The staff is so friendly and they really go out of their way to please. She actually showed us all the available rooms and let us choose. It was so nice we decided to stay in that night. I actually have dreams of being back there. I can't wait to go back. It is truly a dream come true.

October 03, 2012
The property was beautifully landscaped and my room had lots of windows overlooking the greenery. Nice little balcony, clean and inviting room. The innkeeper was very friendly and helpful and enjoyable to talk to. The wine/cheese reception and breakfasts were very nice - tasty, good variety and well presented. I only spent one night but it was a lovely getaway and I will definitely come back.

We're always greeted with a smile and fresh warm cookies...after a long drive - that's always welcome. The rooms are always comfortable and we have a new favorite - the Garden room!
