The property is nice, quiet, and spacious. We enjoyed having meals in the kitchen and catching Netflix at night after a day of sightseeing. The location is perfect, and we can walk into town. It's close to the highway which makes the day trip to Big Sur and Monterey easy. Checking in and out is a breeze as well. The window treatment can use some fixing, but we just kept them down the whole time. :) Overall a very good stay, and Susan is a good host.

Perfectly located for access to both downtown Carmel and Highway 1. The neighborhood is blessedly quiet and wonderfully woodsy. The house is very comfortable and the kitchen is large and well outfitted. One warning though, if you have a large car like my Explorer, be prepared to possibly fold in your side view mirrors before entering and exiting the garage. 😊

Great location. Very well equipped. Comfortable beds with an abundance of pillows. Oversized leather couches with lots of pillows. Could use better lighting in living room. Weak internet resulted in very slow loading of movies. However several dvds and books were provided. Recommend and would stay there again.

This is our second time renting this house. It is in a great location convenient to town. The house has an enclosed backyard for the dogs. Because we were here in January when we had the storms, we walked the dogs in downtown Carmel where there are sidewalks and they really enjoyed it. Would rent this house again.

This home is easily accessible and comfortable. The owner is very communicative, yet not intrusive. Given the beautifully treed neighborhood, bad weather can bring down trees and cause power outages. If that worries you, perhaps you'd be wise to plan something further from the coast and with lower vegetation.

We chose this VRBO listing because of its location in Carmel at a reasonable price. Three of us stayed here and found it quite suitable for our purposes. The description was accurate and is quite comfortable.

Very comfortable home with a great layout. It is a short walk to town which we loved to take as there is a little pathway through the trees. A storm came through while we were there and the house stayed warm and cozy. The owner is very responsive as well.

This home was very comfortable and we included all the amenities we could ask for. It is located in an extremely quiet and charming neighborhood with quick access to all the restaurants, shops and galleries Carmel has to offer. The bed was comfortable and the kitchen is updated and was well stocked in case we wanted to prepare a full meal. Overall, it was a wonderful experience and we would rebook here in the future given the opportunity.

Theres no place like home

Theres no place like home

We were over the moon about staying here. 4 minute drive to downtown or the beach or the 17 mile drive or the beginning of the drive to Big Sur. The house was so beautifully decorated,quiet, comfortable and superclean which made it enjoyable to eat at home alot! So much to do in this area and every adventure breathtaking. Be sure to do Pffiefer Beach, Pt. Lobos . The only trip out of the area was Henry Cowell Redwoods State Park. So serene and beautiful. We walked around Carmel wuite a bit and loved all the quaint buildings shops and alleyways. LaByclette has the best wood fired pizza and Carmel Bakery is so good and they sell ice cream by the scoop. The art galleries were amazing as well. Hopefully we will be back someday.

Great home base for our Carmel vacation

Great home base for our Carmel vacation

We loved our stay in this well-located home. It is so close to downtown Carmel and you can easily walk or drive. Two bedrooms were perfect for our family of 3 and the living area and kitchen were comfortable and spacious. The beds were super comfortable and we all slept amazingly well during our stay. The house was clean and well-maintained and Susan was easy to communicate with. We would definitely stay again. The walkability was pretty good although part of the walk into downtown Carmel is on a fairly busy street with not much sidewalk, so might not be the best with small kids or mobility issues but it was not a problem for us. Like I said, would love to stay again sometime.

GREAT WEEK

GREAT WEEK

The house is located in a nice, quiet neighborhood. There is a fenced in side yard which was perfect for our 2 small dogs. Everything (tv, internet, heater, etc.) worked fine during our stay. We walked our dogs daily down Santa Fe to 2nd Ave and then back to Santa Rita. It's an easy drive to Ocean Ave where you can park or, like we usually do, drive to 8th and Mission where there is a parking lot. Recommend dinner at Dametra, breakfast at Katy's Place and had lunch at Portabella, Treehouse Cafe and Toro Sushi. Easy access via Carpenter to Highway 1 and 68 to Pacific Grove. Recommend going down to Ocean View Blvd in PG where you can walk from Cannery Row to Lover's Point and beyond , literally for miles. It was great for the dogs. Would definitely rent this house again.

The house was great. It was easy to find and the instructions were clear. We appreciated not having to buy paper towels, garbage bags etc. we also like the abundance of towels. We are a walking family and found the walk into town and along the beach most enjoyable.

I cannot share in words enough what a great hostess Susan was and how wonderfully clean and accurate in the description it was. The home was exceptionally outfitted with everything one could need during their stay in Carmel area. The location was great, the neighbors really kind and informative......we will be back if there is availability. Thank you for making our holiday such a delight!

We had a wonderful time staying here. Very comfortable and the neighborhood is perfect for walking to downtown or just around. Very quiet. We were thrilled to be able to bring our dogs with us and they were very popular in Carmel. Kitchen was good for cooking meals, backyard was good. We would be happy to return!

Cozy, Quiet and Close to Everything

We had a wonderful time in this little cottage. My husband worked for a few days and the wifi was outstanding. We had easy drives to many wonderful places from Lover’s Point to Point Lobos. It’s a longer walk to Ocean Ave than we expected but a super short drive and we had wonderful lunches at many Covid safe restaurants. We cooked dinners at home and if we had one suggestion it would be to stock the kitchen with some basics like cooking oil, pepper, etc. The pots, pans and cutlery were great. We also needed to reach the owners with a question and they were very responsive. We hope to stay here again someday.

We had an enjoyable stay for a week and found the home to be spacious, clean & comfortable with most amenities provided. Quiet neighborhood with a 20-minute walk to Carmel downtown & beach. A wonderful place to stay for those wishing to visit Big Sur, Monterrey, Pacific Grove, Pebble Beach, Elkhorn Slough, etc. The owner was helpful & responsive. We would recommend this property to anyone contemplating a sojourn to Carmel.
