Easy access to Big Sur and Carmel.

It is adjacent to the Artist's Treehouse Apartment #290731 and lends itself as the place for the kids or another couple vacationing together, BUT– in their own place!

Desiree greeted me by yelling at my daughter and son-in-law, “You are not welcome!” They were simply bringing me food after a long journey and wanted to welcome me. My daughter had previously messaged her to request they quickly stop by, but she did not message back. My son-in-laws family lives just down the road and they had no intention of staying for long. When we tried to ask Desiree where they could park (the driveway/ parking area was very spacious), she continued to repeat, more loudly, “YOU ARE NOT WELCOME!” She preceded to tell me, “This is not starting off well.” It was quite late and I was very worried I would need to find another place to stay. She never once welcomed me, made any effort to be kind, and it was awkward at best. Her communication was abrupt and sarcastic. I was very lucky to have my son-in-laws family close by. In terms of the accommodations, the furniture was dusty, it smelled musty, and there was used flosser left behind on patio furniture. The number of rules Desiree has is simply outrageous. I travel often and have never encountered so many ridiculous rules. It is abundantly clear that Desiree is not comfortable with people staying on her property. I believe she is in the wrong business and would not recommend this stay.

Our short stay at The Artist's Library was restorative in ways that fancy places cannot offer. The grounds with arching, ancient live oak trees and pots of bright geraniums are lovely and enlivened with chatter of crows who generously share their territory. The space is thoughtfully equipped and well cared for. Your host is a font of information, but respectful of your privacy. You'll remember your stay here with fondness.

Where to begin . . . Desiree was/is a wonderful host that was so welcoming and accommodating. The down pillows are like resting your head on a cloud, the kitchen is comfortable and well equipped, the front porch and chairs are a sanctuary, the gentle breeze and sound of the birds that comes through the bedroom windows are heavenly. In summary, we LOVED the privilege of getting to stay at this gem of a home. Cafe Rustica is a MUST for dining. Thank you Desiree for facilitating this wonderful stay.

We knew from the minute we pulled through the gate that we had picked to perfect spot for our 2 nt stay. The lush beauty of the property and the ‘welcome’ from our host Desiree we knew we were in for a treat. Not only is the property breathtaking but stepping into the Artist Library apartment was enchanting. Imagine yourself surrounded by warm colors, art and beautiful books or sit outside surrounded by ancient oak trees, birds and flowers in full bloom. And then top it off with a comfortable bed & linens we will not hesitate to return when visiting the charming Carmel Valley Village area.

Loved this VRBO my husband booked in Carmel Village for three nights! Our host, Desiree, was so friendly and helpful that we were able to prioritize everything we wanted to do, nix some things off the list, and fully enjoy our short time there. We will definitely return!! Great host!!

Our stay was cozy and comfortable. The bed was very comfortable as well. The quaintness of the artist library was so unique. Desiree made you feel right at home and made sure that you knew all the attractions in and around Carmel Valley and Monterey prior to even getting there. I would recommend the artist library for an enjoyable getaway
