About this house rental
Fabulous location, close to town, with romantic interior environment on quiet tree lined street overlooking a greenbelt. Gorgeous space, practically new with large baths, limestone surfaces, copper sinks, steam shower, gas fireplace. Very peaceful setting to relax and enjoy Carmel.
Keywords: A gorgeous contemporary cottage located in downtown Carmel-by-the-Sea with beautiful canyon views, a romantic setting and yet very private.
A loving recent restoration brought this house into the new century. Pure heart redwood, copper, limestone and Douglas Fir make this house glow in the late evening as the sun sets over the beach.
If you're lucky you might get the beam of a full moon through the Living Room windows as it lights up the canyon below and makes the room glow. So romantic and peaceful. The lovely walking trail-Mission trail is right at the back of the house. One block from Ocean Ave and a 15-minute walk through Carmel's Golden Triangle brings you to Carmel Beach, one of the most iconic spots on California's Central Coast.

My wife selected this property based on the location and previous reviews and it lived up to our expectations. Checking in was easy as we were met by one of the owners (Franz) and he took us through a short walk-through of the home and we chatted about local restaurants and hikes in the nearby park. The living room is filled with light and nature as you feel like you're in a tree house. Everyday we'd watch the squirrels and pesky woodpeckers frolic about. It's a roomy home with plenty of room for up to two couples - nice sized bedrooms, lots of closet space, large kitchen and living room, and big primary bathroom (the steam shower is HUGE). Keep in mind the house is in a forest so do expect the occasional spider or fly to share the space! Location is great as it's on a quiet tree-lined street not too far from a number of restaurants, two small(ish) grocery stores, and plenty of shopping. We rarely drove while in town as everything is a short walk (be mindful there are a number of hills). While the town can get busy on the weekends, we tried to avoid Ocean Ave and walked down 8th street to our favorite spots. Communication with owners was excellent - very responsive and available to address any question. We highly recommend this property.

We are both 93 years old. I told that to the host prior to booking. There are too many stairs for seniors, and there are no grab bars in showers. The home is well equipped, and well located in a quiet street. But, stairs from entry to kitchen and more to living area and master bedroom.

My husband and I stayed at the Great Escape for the month of September 2023 and were absolutely thrilled with our decision to rent this home. It was exactly as described in the listing and then some. It was so warm and inviting, and in a perfect location in Carmel. The kitchen was well stocked for the days and evenings we stayed in and cooked at home. The master bedroom was very comfortable and the master bathroom was 5-star. We loved the giant windows and natural light in the home. The location was really perfect....so easy to walk or ride our bikes to everything we wanted to do. We truly lived like locals during our stay there. It did not bother us at all, but be advised that this home has multiple levels and steps, so if mobility is an issue for anyone in your party, this would be something to consider. Wendy and Frans were gracious hosts, and very responsive to any questions we had. They were so easy to work with and so accommodating. I would highly recommend this property, and look forward to our next stay at the Great Escape!
