Getting to know the Redwood Village in Aptos

Redwood Village was founded in 1929 by William Parker on the former site of Spreckels’ stables and alongside the Watsonville to Santa Cruz highway. This was for many coming to the coast, their first close-up of redwoods. The redwood grove was thinned and the timber milled to construct cottages for vacationers. In 1974, the visitor cottages were converted to shops and businesses.

Go by and check out what they’ve got going on in the Redwood Village these days! With all of the cottages now full, there is something for everyone’s Mind, Body and Spirit!

Address for the Redwood Village Cottages is 9099 Soquel Drive in Aptos just west of the Rio Del Mar, Soquel Drive intersection. Misleading because of the bridge but you need to enter the village on Valencia (at Surf City Coffee) or Monroe Ave (where the Goodwill Drop Off center is)
