How It Works
Join The Club
- Enjoy this professionally made, manually edited, classifieds directory that's just for Santa Cruz county locals.
- We are a members' only club with warm, loving attitudes towards each other and a desire to live simply. SurfHab vets each member by phone so that you don't have to deal with spammers or weirdos. We are all tired of the lack of accountability that has come from all these automated systems, right?
- If you're mellow or your yellow and you're groovy, you'll fit right in! If you have to harsh the mellow, you may be asked to come back later and try again when you can be cool. If you're a spammer or a scammer or a robot, look somewhere else to be or you might be made into a tree!

How Listing & Editing Works

You are welcome to enjoy full customer service any time - just call and letting us set it up for you! And mailing in your pictures is allowed because SurfHab knows how to be old-school, yeah!.
