Wonderful family get-away in Carmel. Spacious house had everything we needed included a pack-n-play and highchair for the baby. We enjoyed our meals on the deck and loved the fenced in yard for the dog. Holly was exceptional in communicating with us and provided a wealth of information for our stay. Looking forward to coming back!

Better than expected, really. The home was very well appointed. The sleeping areas are well away from the common area, which is nice. We enjoyed watching the sunset from upstairs porch.

Lovely property. Very spacious and well kept. Suitable for all ages from very young to a bit older ((like me). Holly, the host, was very communicative even months in advance, and bent over backwards to provide info about restaurants that I had asked about. Both Whole Foods and Safeway were in very near driving distance and the kitchen in the house had plenty of cooking equipment. The appliances are all new and state of the art. What more could you ask for?

We had a great family weekend in Carmel at Holly and Richard’s house. Especially enjoyed sitting on the courtyard deck under the oak tree enjoying the beautiful fall weather. The house gets great natural light and has a nice layout for family to spend time together in the common spaces. Communication with our hosts was top-notch, especially appreciated the helpful tips and recommendations—a birthday cake for my dad from their recommended local bakery was a big hit!

Quiet and serene stay

The house is perfect for a family of 5. We enjoyed the bed and my wife loved the nice soaker tub. After a long day of activities with the family this was a great property to relax, enjoy, and unwind on. We ended every night with a glass of wine outside on the beautiful deck. The kids enjoyed their rooms and the living room space.

Lovely Carmel Woods retreat

Property is well situated on the winding, hilly and wooded area of north Carmel. Close to everything. House and yard in need of some updating - bathrooms are nicely remodeled, and kitchen is modern and well equipped. House is nicely laid out and private. Good, safe yard for dogs.

Thanks for your review, Stephen. Just a quick note - we have recently refreshed the house's interior paint (what a difference it made) and the the lower part of the garden and you can look forward other external updates. Honestly though, we don't have plans to update the upper garden because we think the dogs we are open to hosting deserve lots of space to sniff and roam. Come see us again soon!
