Gotta Repeat This Cabin Retreat!

This was our first stay in Carmel Valley, and what a treat this cabin is. Best spot is the outdoor patio. We were outside enjoying the canyons when two eagles soared about 10 feet over our head, wow! The cabin is located in a very quiet neighborhood but the village full of shops and restaurants is within walking distance. The host Rachelle is very friendly and attentive. We highly recommend this cabin, it’s a ten out of ten!

great location, but...

The location was great for day trips to Monterey, Pacific Grove and Big Sur. The house was clean and well equipped in the kitchen. We had two problems during our stay--a large oak on the property fell on a day we were luckily gone, very close to the house. We came back to workers and chain saws. The back yard was not usable by us or our dogs for the next days and nights of our visit, which had been a major reason we chose this property. Then our last night the power went completely out. We waited to call until the next morning and used flashlights, but none of the phone contacts replied to phone calls or texts. Just by luck a tenant came out to his car and was able to help us locate the fuse box and flip the breaker. The owner apologized for the inconvenience about the fallen tree, but did not respond about the power outage and made no offer to discount our stay.

Wonderful Get Away

The rustic cabin is so much better than the photos, very cute and roomy. We loved cooking in the kitchen and barbequeing on the deck-great grill. Most of our time in the afternoon, we spent on the deck. A lot of shade and a wonderful breeze. Everything was clean and well stocked! Just a short walk was a nice, inexpensive Mexican restaurant. We hope to visit this rustic cabin again!

Girls Trip

The property was very clean. It was just as described a very cozy cabin. We also had our dogs with us and the side yard was perfect for them to go out when they needed. We really enjoyed this trip. Thank you so much.

Another Memorable Stay

Rachelle's little cabin is so warm and comfy we had no problem feeling at home! It was raining most of our stay but we still had the best time staying in and making a nice warm fire. Thank you for sharing your home - we've made some great memories there!

Little cabin in Carmel Valley

We loved the cozy little cabin. The kitchen had everything we needed for cooking. The bed was super comfortable. The dogs liked the backyard to run around in. Lots of treasures in town, the delightful walkable bakery and cute tasting rooms.

Cozy Cabin

We had such a lovely time celebrating my husband’s birthday while staying at this cute cabin! The bed was so comfortable, and the sofa & loveseat were comfy too—perfect for lounging around. This property has a cozy cabin feel, but still has all the necessities of home; it was the perfect way to relax before and after exploring the beautiful surrounding areas. Also, our pup enjoyed several walks around the neighborhood as well as running around in the fenced backyard. Finally, the owner Rachelle was so helpful and kind before and during our stay, answering questions and providing helpful information. We would definitely stay here again!

Awesome cabin

The property was very nice and rustic. The cabin was easy to find. It was clean on the inside and had all of the items needed for our stay. The area was very quiet and the scenery was beautiful! If you had no plans on driving then this place is great. Everything you need is within a half mile walking distance (restaurants, markets, wine tastings, etc). The host was extremely nice and communicated well. We definitely would stay again if we come back to the area.

Rustic Cabin

It definitely has a rustic cabin vibe. The cabin was clean. Everything was in proper working order. Lightning was more on the dimmer side. The cabin was extremely quiet and peaceful. Rachelle was a great host — very attentive. My only suggestion would to change the bathroom shower head. The fixed position makes it difficult in washing/rinsing oneself off. D & K, SF Bay Area

Cozy cabin walking distance to wine, coffee, and food!

My cousin and I spent 3 days and 2 nights in this cozy little mountain-themed cabin. Cool if Tahoe is your thing 🐻 We were stoked that it was dog friendly and had a fenced yard. The outdoor patio area was nice but the yard could use a little love. It also has a house in case you need to wash off your beach mutt. The place had a full kitchen too so it was easy to enjoy meals at home. And it’s a good thing we brought food because most of the town closes down on Tuesdays. House can easily accommodate two couples that are willing to share a small bathroom. Back bedroom was a little stuffy and floral smelling, but fine after airing it out. We hope to be back!

Perfect cozy cottage

We stayed here for two nights to attend a wedding in the area. The cabin was adorable, spotlessly clean and great location. Very good communication, easy check-in (as long as you don't have to use the keypad) and comfortable bed. Lots of towels and treats!

Great place in a great location

Cabin was exactly as described. Well appointed, well equipped, and in a perfect neighborhood. Totally quiet. Very convenient for our dog. Nearby there is a park where we could run the dog and we were close enough to Carmel to take her to the beach.
