About this property

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

Please Note: Road closures are very far from my property and do not affect my property in the least.

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.
This Property Was Recently Featured In Urban Outfitters.

Transcendent

Where do we start? The opportunity to have moment of serenity in a world that wants to project chaos is so special and Mary provided that. From the drive to the place, to cultivating our own roots there for a brief time that we had is a moment and an opportunity that neither one of us will forget anytime soon. Thank you Mary for the moment of solace and being willing to share your beautiful space with us. It was properly honored.

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!

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.

Perfect hideaway on the CA coast

My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed this property and the privacy and tranquility it provided. Great location to some amazing hiking and beautiful coastal spots. Would highly recommend this property and Mary (the owner) was great as well. We will definitely return!

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.

Y’all! This place is so much better than the pictures give it credit! It is at the TOP of a mountain, all glass walls, whimsical and amazing! If you want a once in a lifetime experience, you need to stay at Mary’s place!

The cutest little glass house in the forest!!

This was great place to stay in Big Sur! The location was right in between the two popular areas for food, so it was a perfect halfway point. I didn't realize that the bathroom wasn't going to be attached to the main house, so that was the only thing we were surprised about. Everything else was perfect!! Definitely would stay here again!

Secluded and Unique Getaway

This property is such a unique getaway! Mary is great to work with and we truly enjoyed the solitude we experienced here. The stars were amazing! Both beds were very comfortable though the yurt got a bit stuffy if you didn't leave the door open - which then let more bugs in. The hot tub in the evening under the stars sealed the deal for us as it was the perfect way to relax after a long day of hiking!

Amazing getaway!

Best vacation rental I've ever stayed at - the pictures do not do it justice. Really interesting and artistic home with a cozy yert to sleep in. Quiet at night and look at the stars! Mary does an excellent job checking in with the guests without being nosy. I'll be coming back for sure.

Quiet retreat in nice area of California

Nice quiet retreat from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Overall we were happy with our stay. A lot of outdoor activities are available in the immediate area which was for us the draw to the area. The property was overall a pleasant experience. We ended up staying in the yurt because we found the bed in the loft to be uncomfortable and the yurt lacks a heating source which was a bit of a hurtle but not the end of the world.
