The Hollins House at Pasatiempo
Santa Cruz · historic and hotel
The gazebo is backed by old oaks with the Pacific behind it. The site sits well above the venues down on the flat.
The venue now runs its own site at thehollinshouse.com. The old Pasatiempo page forwards there and the stored PDF is out of date. Stored link replaced.
The brochure lists Hollins Room at 10-30; the website lists up to 36. Confirm with the venue.
