About this property

Big Sur Dream Home Completely private with an outdoor hot tub and fireplace.

Note: Big Sur's Highway One is now open to the public.

Drive up to your own privately paved and gated driveway to a home with a full 365 degree view of redwood and oak ridges. Full sun all day long. Perfect for one or two people. Arrive, relax and take a dip in the hot tub viewing the beautiful mountain ridge as birds sing and red tailed hawks circle above.

Listen to the river flow as you sun bathe all day long without a soul to bother you. The deep ultimate luxury about my property is solitude and the stars at night.

Magical Property

We booked a two night stay on the property. The second day a tree fell in the road and took down the powerlines so we had no power. There was a generator and plenty of propane on the property to get us through the power outage. We loved the property so much, We stayed an additional night.The property owner Mary was fantastic and a great artist! The property is filled with love and character! We will be back for our next stay in the near future!

A cozy and private getaway with a beautiful view

Staying at Mary’s property was an absolute delight! The cozy yurt was the perfect blend of comfort and rustic charm, making for a truly unique getaway. Waking up to breathtaking views right outside the door was a highlight, and the sense of privacy made the experience feel like a secluded retreat. The outdoor fireplace was a great spot to unwind in the evenings, adding a warm and inviting touch to the whole stay. Mary was a gracious host and easy to communicate with before and during our stay. If you're looking for a peaceful escape with incredible scenery, this is the place to be!

Wonderful getaway

Mary's property is a lovely getaway, it's beautifully handcrafted and in a stunning location. Lighting the indoor fireplace in the mornings and evenings kept it cozy and the views out the skylight in the loft are perfect for stargazing.

Beautiful spot

We very much enjoyed out stay. Gorgeous beautiful location in the redwoods. Great place to enjoy the woods. The cabin and sleeping quarters are great. However, for the price charged, it is overdue for some renovation. There is no heating in the sleeping area, the heater in the pictures is only decorative.

Secluded getaway

This majestic spot is the perfect hideaway between Big Sur and Carmel. It’s pretty easy to find in the day time or at night. The hot tub was perfect on a chilly November night. The yurt stayed at the same cool temperature in the heat of the daytime or at night. It was cozy and fun. The loft sleeping space has a really cool skylight that will give you star views on a clear night. My partner and I cooked a few meals and found that there’s just enough space for a couple people to work in the kitchen. The surrounding woods are gorgeous and quiet. It was easy to take day trips to locations at Big Sur and Carmel. Most of the best Big Sur destinations we wanted to visit were within 45 minutes of the house.

Dreamy setting and artfully crafted cabin

I want to start by saying that the cabin was very special. The setting was magical and the artistry of the architecture was very cool. On the other hand, the interior designer in me was dreaming of the updates and furnishings I would use to polish the place up a bit :) ... All to say it was indeed magical AND at the same time, for the price, I found it to be a bit rough around the edges/dated. I was prepared and excited for the rustic side of the experience, understanding that I would need to walk outside to get to the bathroom, that the sleeping options were a loft bed with a ladder to access it or a yurt across a path from the main space structure, but I was a little surprised by the mismatched, piecemeal furnishings and the general wear and tear, and need for some TLC. Communication was good. The cabin is well organized with all pertinent info available and left easily accessible. The drive in is windy and narrow but the pay off of the privacy and peaceful setting was well worth it to us.

Sweetness on the mountain top

We loved loved loved this property . The different indoor and outdoor species to hang out and even choices where to sleep. There are so many beautiful state parks and places nearby to explore ( which we did) but then we were so happy to get back to this spot and relax. The hot tub was perfect after the hikes and the indoor space with so much natural light just felt like an extension of the outdoors. So many sweet artistic touches and while I didn’t get enough time to make use of the art studio, it was another space with good light and energy. We hope to return in the future. Mary could not have been more responsive or helpful.
