About this property

Family Friendly Homestead + Aquarium Passes

This bright and clean homestead on the Monterey peninsula comfortably sleeps 10 and features a lovely enclosed backyard with ducks, chickens, veggies and flowers.

Your stay includes 2 guest passes for the Monterey Bay Aquarium, which can be used multiple days during your visit!

The primary bedroom features a memory foam king bed, optional adult-sized memory foam cot, desk, dresser and an attached bathroom with a stall shower.

The first back bedroom (white walls) has two super comfortable memory foam full beds.

The second back bedroom (blue walls) has two twin beds (one with a memory foam topper) and an adult-sized memory foam cot.

For smaller groups, the cot and second twin can be stored away to maximize floor space.

The master bedroom closet is stocked with extra linens and you’ll find abundant fresh towels and beach towels in the hall closet. You’ll also find an array of board games and puzzles.

Each of the back two bedrooms has a wall plug-in nightlight and the white-walled bedroom has an assortment of books and toys available for your use.

We have a newer pack n play and high chair available for our guests with infants — let us know if you’d like us to set them up for your group!

The kitchen is stocked with oils, vinegars and spices, along with a microwave, Vitamix blender, Kitchen-aid mixer, toaster, air fryer, pasta maker and any cookware you might need to whip up a fresh meal. We leave unopened condiments and some canned food in the pantry for your use. You’ll also find cookie cutters, sprinkles and other baking accessories in the pantry.

The coffee bar features a Keurig stocked with coffee pods, along with creamers, sugar, hot cocoa and oatmeal. We also provide a drip coffee pot.

Our ducks and chickens lay eggs from February - October, so if you book during those months we’ll leave fresh eggs for you in the fridge! (The duck eggs are especially good in cakes)

Our private fenced backyard has an outdoor table and chairs, a grassy space for playing, climbing roses, dozens of varieties of flowers and planter boxes filled with veggies.

Feel free to visit our feathered friends in the back and toss them kale and chard treats from the garden, but please do not release them from their coops. The greenhouse and garage are locked, but every other area is accessible.

The family bath has a tub/shower and a marble double vanity, with a stool to help children reach the sink.

A Blueair large area air purifier helps to keep the air in our home fresh and clean.

You’ll be close to shops, grocery stores and restaurants, but the home and backyard are much quieter than you might expect given the central location.

We can usually accommodate early check-ins — send us a message when you place your reservation if that’s something you’d like!

We love the Monterey peninsula and have put tons of love and work into this home over the past six years. We cannot wait to host you.

Great stay for our family!
Our 3 generation family had a wonderful stay at this home. Our group of 4 adults and six kids had plenty of room for our needs and we found the kitchen well stocked. Great set up with several nice touches that made the house feel like home. The kids loved the ducks and chickens in the backyard and the fresh eggs awaiting us in the fridge was a lovely welcome gift and were delicious. The owner’s communication was exceptional. The house location worked great for our needs. Central to Monterey and Santa Cruz region. We used the aquarium passes worked well. Would absolutely stay here again when we return to the area on another family trip.
