About this cottage rental

Originally built in 1937, the Gingerbread Cottage is ideally situated less than a half mile from the Carpenter Street/Highway 1 intersection allowing for easy access to all the sights and attractions on the Monterey Peninsula. The gate in the large privacy fence opens to a stone paver landscaped patio which gets plenty of mid day sun.

Upon entering the home you will find a cozy comfortable living room featuring a thermostatically controlled gas fireplace and a 42 inch flat panel 'smart' television. Or if you prefer to bring along your favorite music, listen on the Bose Wave sound system (CD's) or Bluetooth sound bar. On your right will be the office/den with a desk and a queen size sofa bed if additional sleeping arrangements are needed. This room can become private simply by closing the pocket doors.

The well equipped kitchen features all new stainless steel appliances including a refrigerator with ice maker, a dishwasher, microwave and gas stove. To the right of the bay windowed dining area is the full size washer and dryer and entrance to the second bath and second queen sized bedroom.

Moving past the dining area is a sunroom/sitting area outside the master bedroom which features a king bed. The master bath has a walk-in shower, separate toilet area and a walk in closet.

Virtually all Monterey Peninsula activities and attractions are within 10 minutes from the property conveniently located less than half a mile from the Carpenter Avenue/Highway 1 intersection. Ocean Avenue in Carmel is less than a mile away and within five miles of the home is the Lodge at Pebble Beach, the Monterey Wharf, Cannery Row and the Monterey Aquarium, and the Crossroads and Del Monte Shopping Centers. Add a few more miles heading south and you can enjoy many photo opportunities of Big Sur along the way.

We are from Iowa and came to Monterey area to visit our son who is doing his physical therapy clinical at the VA clinic. This was a beautiful place to call home for 4 days. It was perfect!

Enjoyed a week long adventure on the peninsula. Very well equipped and comfortable cottage. Quiet location, close to downtown Carmel, 17 Mile, and Monterrey. Will visit again.

This cottage really is perfect. As many have mentioned, the kitchen has everything you will need for cooking. It is really nice that the pantry is full of all the basic necessities - including coffee! The house has a wonderful layout - there are several places for people to gather - so it is conducive to letting the kids play in one area or watch TV in another while the parents relax and have a cocktail in another sitting area or even outside. It really is minutes to downtown Carmel and super convenient to making a trip to Monterey as well. It is impeccably clean and it has the easiest check-in and check-out process of any VRBO that I have ever rented!

We had a wonderful stay at the Gingerbread Cottage in Carmel. Our host, Bob, had great communication. The space was perfect for my husband, myself, my daughter and a friend. It was a great location for our visit with our son who lives in the area and all that we wanted to do in Monterey and Carmel! The kitchen was well equipped for us to host a few family dinners. We were able to walk to downtown Carmel. Beautiful home and beautiful area.

The cottage was a perfect place for our visit to Carmel. It sits in a quiet neighborhood but yet close to jumping on hwy 1 so you can go to Monterrey or Big Sur. Which we drove to both and enjoyed the scenery this beautiful area has to offer. The cottage had all the amenities we needed. The fireplace was a nice touch and we loved eating outside on the patio. Definitely a place I will book again!
