I cannot recommend this charming, well equipped, peaceful cottage enough. From the easy availability of the warm and friendly host, to the fairy tale backyard, our stay was tranquil, easy and care free. Close to town yet just far enough (one forest filled block) from the easy walk into town, everything was at our doorstep. Falling in love with Carmel was a given - staying at this lovely home stocked with everything we needed and a very kind and accommodating host means I’ll be back as often as time allows.

This home is neat as a pin, decorated nicely and within walking distance of many great shops in Carmel. Loved our stay.

We went for the week between Christmas and New Year’s, and it was just the thing. The property was the perfect place to decompress. Walkable to town, beach, and a terrific selection of restaurants. Perfect!
