Absolutely the cutest cottage we have stayed in over the years! Barb did not miss a thing! The location was quiet about a mile out of town… but if your young you can easily walk to town thru beautiful tree lined streets. If you drive it there are many streets to park on that do not have time frames and it’s great for a day of window shopping and eating! The food in Carmel is unbelievable… so many choices….ALL GOOD! Then coming back to the cottage to rest & relax is a joy♥️ perfect owners for a perfect cottage experience!

Warm greeting from owner, Barb who was a very gracious host! Everything in the cottage was so thoughtful and well laid out for guests. I would definitely stay here again!

Very nice/ comfortable/quiet

This is the perfect getaway cottage! It is full of personal touches and Barb thought of all our needs, including croissants for breakfast!!

We loved this cozy and clean space in Carmel! Barb was communicative and responsive and ensured we had a great stay! We can’t wait to visit again.

The cottage is located on a quiet street in the backyard of the owner’s home. We were greeted with a personalized note, a bottle of wine, croissants, along with snacks and a few water bottles. The property is walking distance to Carmel Beach and all the shops and restaurants. It is an easy drive to Monterey and we did a day trip going down PCH to Big Sur taking in beautiful coastline views and trail hikes. The listing showed a laundry icon but you had to click on view details to see it was directions to a laundromat. The cottage would be better with cross ventilation or air conditioning. A fan was provided to reduce the warmth built up through the day.

My fiance and I stayed here for Rennsport and we're so glad we booked this place to stay. The cottage had it's own walkway and the property was located in a quiet neighborhood, while also being a 15 minute drive from the racetracks / 20 minutes to downtown Monterey. Barb met us the first day and gave us the details about where to eat/what to do in the area. The cottage was had everything two people needed to cook a good breakfast and bird watch from the patio. The bathroom had a skylight and felt very roomy. We loved the chicken farmhouse theme of the whole cottage. The only slight challenge was very slow Internet. It was enough to load the text of an email in about 3 minutes, but no images or video. Data is also extremely spotty both in the neighborhood and in Carmel, the nearest town. So if you need to be online for work or access any online entertainment to wind down your day, there isn't much of a solution. The cottage is a bit of a walk from downtown Carmel, especially with some steep hills, but it was also refreshing to not have to find parking when we went into town for dinner. Overall a really charming location! A sweet spot for a quiet getaway.

Never have I ever imagined that a host would go to the lengths that Barb did. She had so many little treats around to make her guests feel right at home. The unit is private, beautifully decorated, well-maintained, well-located and cozy. I can't wait to return. Hands down, this is a five star stay!
