The Babbling Brook Inn - Inns by the Sea

The Babbling Brook Inn is a romantic oasis within the vibrant beach-side community of Santa Cruz, California. Originally built as a corn grist mill in 1796, it has seen days as a tannery, a silent movie set and restaurant before its current incarnation as a bed and breakfast.

Nestled among the pine and redwood trees, The Babbling Brook Inn enjoys a unique charm, in keeping with the eclectic Santa Cruz community. Our guest rooms are decorated in a rustic, French country style and accented with the artwork of renowned painters and poets such as Monet, Renoir and Tennyson. Peaceful and private, all guest rooms offer luxurious featherbeds, fireplaces, and delightful views of the gardens and brook. Enjoy the warmth and beauty of Santa Cruz with us at the Babbling Brook Inn!
