About this house rental
This beautifully maintained five bedroom, three bath home, with additional large bonus king loft, is a lovely Carmel Valley retreat (total of seven beds {just added a daybed}). It is beautifully furnished, and the kitchen area makes it nice for intimate family gatherings with casual dining. The kitchen is well-equipped with special touches. There is also a formal living/dining area as well. While the house is spacious, smaller groups enjoy it as well and please ask about lesser stays, last minute, etc. The main floor has kitchen with dining area, four of the five bedrooms, three bathrooms, formal dining room and game nook (with poker table, games, etc.). The bedrooms all have separate entrances and bathrooms are near to all! The 'bonus' loft is a large, spacious upstairs room with comfy king-size bed and seating. If you are a group of singles, ask owner about additional accommodations so that each has their own bed. The house overlooks beautiful Carmel Valley hills and is close to the Village and many weddings destination sites. It is a short hop to Monterey/Pebble/Carmel/Pacific Grove/Big Sur, etc. Relax on the patio and sip a glass of wine while watching the sunset. The fog may roll in, but usually stops short of the Village. The house is nicely set up for three king bedrooms, one of which is 400 s.f. Each with its own entrance, and two queen-size rooms (plus bonus loft king). There are a total of three bathrooms, two showers and one bathtub. Or, come as a couple, and enjoy the house with the 400 s.f. master with flat screen with seating for sipping wine and watching the northern views (ask for pricing). You will most likely see the wild turkeys and deer as well! The nightly fee fluctuates dependent upon time of year, availability, wedding season, events, etc. We will do last minute for couple's deal. Please do talk to owner about any last-minute requests. With the loft there are 4 kings and 2 queens {plus daybed}, but we limit the number of guests to no more than 10, in keeping with county ordinances and in consideration of our neighbors. The downstairs queen room also has its own family room and flat screen television. The house is great for just a couple or two, or for a larger gathering. There are a total of three flat screen televisions, cable, and wireless internet. Beautiful home with 5 bedrooms/3 baths + large bonus king loft with seating. 3,300 s.f. Upstairs loft with additional king. Formal living room and dining room, and game/poker table, which can be converted to office space. Spacious outside patio and BBQ.
We are in a family-type neighborhood and do not allow events at the property or shuttle buses (our street is too narrow). Uber/Lyft is available. The kitchen is "hang out" friendly with casual table and seating/family room area. It is easy to make day trips to Big Sur, Pebble Beach, Monterey, Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk, and just about anywhere else on the Peninsula. Always contact owners for variations on daily stay requirements, etc. Special pricing for off-season stays. We are a stone's throw to Holman Ranch and other wedding venues. If you are looking for a longer stay, please do contact owner for special pricing.

One of the most amazing places I have ever stayed. Cindy and her husband were truly amazing. I would highly recommend this property to anyone wanting a quiet place to get away in the Carmel Valley.

Initially, we were excited about our stay, but then I had to email the owner to ask her a question. I was very respectful in my ask, and her response was rude and condescending. I attempted to find another place to rent but was unable due to our trip being 2 weeks away.
Upon arrival, she gave very thorough instructions via message and then told us she would be there to give us a tour. We declined the tour and arrived at the house with no issue. Approximately 30 minutes after we arrived she knocked on the door and then when we didn’t answer immediately, she opened the door and yelled into the house. We were shocked that she would just let herself in and it made us very uncomfortable.
We then found out that she stays on the property in a space above the garage watching your every move.
She told me about the parking situation five times and gave very clear instructions. We arrived to the house one evening and she came outside to indicate that she didn’t like where I was parked, although I was following her directions. It was very controlling and again, uncomfortable.
Her presence put everyone on edge as it felt like she was waiting for you to break one of her rules so that she could come and comment on it.
The overall home is nice and accommodated us well, but her presence is unsettling and made the trip uncomfortable.

We had a lovely time here! It is a large place - perfect for my husband and I, our four kids (each got their own bedroom), and my parents (and our dog). We came down for a few days to celebrate my Mom's 80th birthday. It is a great central location for exploring Carmel and Monterey, and for escaping to sunshine from the fog along the coast. We had fun going for walks / runs in the neighborhood (seeing deer and turkeys) and at Garland Ranch Regional Park. Cindy was an amazing attentive hostess, met us shortly after we arrived at the property and was available for any questions we had. We spent a lot of time sitting outside under the trees playing board games. It was lovely - would definitely recommend it to others.

Great to have bedrooms for all 6 women on a tennis getaway. Home was comfortable and conveniently located near Carmel Village and Tennis facility. Host was very responsive to our requests and the kitchen was well stocked for our cooking and dining needs.

Had our son’s birthday at the aquarium and this location was a perfect getaway for the weekend. So warm, welcoming, and loaded with accommodations: bbq, dishes, pots, beds, coffee, (more) and breathtaking views. Thank you!

The property is great. Clean, quiet, and close to everything.
The property manager has a unique style. She felt it necessary to meet us at the door and escort us throughout the property. During that time she commented that she, “runs a tight ship”. She also commented that she counts the silverware and dishes. She lives above a detached garage that is very close and overlooks the rental house.
It came across as overbearing and made everyone uncomfortable. After check-in no one felt comfortable being there. With one couple leaving and finding lodging elsewhere. Definitely a unique experience for traveling professionals.

We had a great stay. The house was well appointed and more than spacious for a large group. Cindy was there to welcome us and provided anything we might need. The house was very clean and decorated for the holidays. It was a short walk or drive to Carmel Village that offered winery tasting rooms, restaurants, shopping and a small grocery store. It close enough to enjoy all that the Monterey/Carmel area has to offer. We had a great time.

It felt like we were under surveillance and property manager overly paranoid over home rules.

Such a charming home and very relaxing. Our family of 10 stayed here. There was plenty of room. We had charming outdoor areas as well and with the gorgeous weather it was comfortable inside and out. It's well out of the busy hussle and bustle, but close enough to go for a nice brunch or meal in town.
Our host Cindy very was helpful and accomodating.
Thank you so much!

Our large friend-group stayed here for our annual long weekend of hiking and hanging out, and we all agreed that this was the best house we've stayed at in the past decade. There are ample bedrooms, group hang-out spaces, dining/computer tables, and quiet rooms for when you need a bit of downtime from socialization. The house was well-equipped and labeled so it was easy to find everything, and the decor made it feel friendly and homey instead of the usual sterile vacation home feel.
Cindy was great, very helpful and responsive to the few questions that came up. The next time we aim for a Monterey/Carmel trip, we'll definitely see about staying here again.

We were met at property by Cindy who gave us a complete walk through. She was extremely helpful and checked in with us the next day to make sure we ok and didn't need anything. There were 7 guys and we all had enjoyed the house. The only negative was that the pull-out couch was pretty uncomfortable as they usually are. But definitely a five star stay.

We had a great time visiting Carmel. Cindy was a marvel to work with, great at suggestions and communication. The house is just as advertised, well situated and comfortable.

If you have a chance to stay here don’t think twice - just do it!
Cindy was very informative and helpful. Enough rooms for privacy and enough space for us all to be together. We also enjoyed the peacefulness both within and without. Very enjoyable experience!

We took a weekend family trip to Carmel Valley (10 people) and would rate Cindy’s place as One of the nicest, best located, and real value compared with the places we have stayed. The views were phenomenal. The house was very clean, spacious, and had everything we need to feel at home. Locally, we were able to feel one with nature on our tranquil walks and it was a 15 min drive to downtown Carmel. Communication was great too being that Cindy showed us around when we first got there. We would highly recommend this charming wonderful home.

House was well equipped except for some paper supplies. Lots of throw rugs which could have been a trip hazard. Owners live on site. Dishes had to be washed before running thru the dishwasher. All in all, a good experience.

We came for a wedding in big sur. We were hosting the majority of the bridal party and needed a house that could sleep 10. Cindy's house in Carmel valley hit all our needs at a reasonable price. I didnt realize Carmel valley was quite as rural as it was but in the end that added to the charm and beauty even if the commute was long . Overall 10/10 stay.
5.0
Perfect house for our girls weekend! Very spacious, beautiful views and plenty of outdoor space! Just minutes from downtown Carmel Valley where there are dozens of wine tasting rooms. Also an easy drive to Carmel and surrounding areas. The host, Cindy, was very helpful and quick to answer questions.

We rented this home for 8 family members and an au pair for my son's wedding at Holly Farm. The house and the views are gorgeous. It's about a 13 minute drive to Holly Farm and a 5 minute drive to Carmel Valley Village. Cindy was easy to work with and very helpful. We did move a fair number of beautiful but breakable pieces out of the way of our 1 and 4 year old grandchildren. There is a room downstairs and a room upstairs in a loft. From both you come to the main floor for the bathrooms. And to get to the master bedroom without walking through another bedroom, you would walk to the side of the house to enter directly to the master. None of this was an issue - just something you should be aware of. Beds were all really comfortable and the house was spotless. We didn't do any cooking in the kitchen - so can't really speak to that. I would love to come back and stay in this house on a weekend when we are less busy!

Our group of nine women enjoyed our stay in the clean, comfortable home. Cindy and Mike were helpful and responded pleasantly and rapidly to questions and concerns.
5.0
We had a great experience with this property and with Cindy and Mike. Plenty of room, nice and cool even without air conditioning in August. As another reviewer wrote there is a quirky layout with two of the king bedrooms but we managed by exiting master’s outside door and coming around the house to the kitchen door. I think it is fine if everyone is comfortable together. As others wrote the views were spectacular. There are three separate outdoor sitting areas which we used but did not eat or barbecue there. Kitchen was well stocked. Would recommend.
4.0
Lots of rooms, curious layout. Only access to master suite is through another bedroom, unless you go outside. Upstairs and downstairs bedrooms have no bathrooms. Kitchen is very small. ,but is well stocked with everything except food basics/condiments.
