About this property

The ARTIST'S TREEHOUSE is on one acre in Carmel Valley with views across the property, Carmel Valley Village and the Carmel River. It is nestled in an old oak forest with lots of light, sun and views– beyond the fog belt of the coast yet under 20 minutes from Carmel.

Minimum 31 night stay by state and county mandate.

Not sure? See the property reviews.

Easy, Big Sur, Carmel and Monterey access.

My Artist's Treehouse and Artist's Library couple-size apartments are at the top of the most popular in the Carmel/Monterey Peninsula area. Experience them.

A wide staircase winds up to the deck with table and seating (smoking allowed outside, only) and the double doors to the apartment. The all redwood building has a peaked, open beam, tongue and groove ceiling with cathedral-shaped stained glass windows on each end and screened windows throughout.

Carpeted with oak parquet in the full kitchen and tile in the full bath (shower)– the effect is light and lovely! Extremely well insulated, the Treehouse has a gas wall heater; in summer the ocean breezes come in early afternoon to cool and the days are FOG FREE.

Parking is a covered carport behind full fencing and an electric gate. Addit parking fee for a second car, by request only.

Stunning Location!

Our 3 night stay was perfect in every way, a total contrast to recent properties we have stayed in. Desiree is amazing, she really looks after you and is a font of local knowledge, which comes in very handy if you don’t know the area. I would not hesitate to recommend a stay here if your in the Carmel area…we will certainly be back 👌

A wonderful treehouse!

We recently stayed at the Treehouse for a weekend. Everything was so incredibly clean and comfortable! The view is amazing, the location is great, and the host is very responsive and fun to get to know! She also sent tons of great restaurants and things to do before we were there, which was very helpful! We thoroughly enjoyed our visit to Carmel Valley and hope to return again someday. Thank you!

Stunning

Had an absolutely perfect stay at the Artist's Treehouse! The location is equally lovely and peaceful with a beautiful view. Our host was extremely accommodating as I was surprising my companion with a few things sent to the property ahead of our arrival. Check in and check out were seamless and our host was highly responsive and helpful. The apartment itself was very well equipped and cozy. It very much felt like home.

About the host

Hosted by Desiree

I'm a full time artist with my studio onsite for creating and selling my ShellShades.com pieces across the United States. But I also love to garden and especially love to water my garden– a guilty and expensive pleasure in CA. Nonetheless, this home and property have allowed me to work, play and create the perfect refuge. I think you'll enjoy it, too. Desiree

Why they chose this property

I love the outdoors and wildlife. Between here and the 3 minutes to the 'Village' watch out for deer and turkeys on the road. At the 'Treehouse' we also have turkeys and quail, gray fox, raccoons, squirrels, opossum and birdsong. At night you can hear the river running in the canyon below and birds singing a morning wake-up. Night skies are exceptionally starry and we are fortunate with our clean air to view the Milky Way most nights.

What makes this property unique

–MONTEREY BAY AQUARIUM is the most popular attraction in Monterey County.
–WINE TASTING is big here because we have such an excellent wine growing appelation– ask me about the 20+ Tasting Rooms within 1 mile of the Treehouse.
–WILD TURKEYS and deer heavily populate the area and hiking trails thread throughout Carmel, Carmel Valley and Big Sur.
–FIND A MYSTERY book in the collection and read it while you're here.
