Cozy House in Carmel

Bill's house is a lovely spot to relax for a few days. The location is quiet and nice, just across the street from the Carmel Mission. We took a lovely walk to Carmel River State Park, then onto Carmel and Carmel Beach. The sunsets from both decks were fantastic. The house is cozy with 2 fireplaces, we really enjoyed our weekend there.

Great Place, well described

This cottage was just as delightful as I thought it would be from the pictures and description. The host was extremely helpful and responsive. Cooking here was a delight, with an extremely well stocked, well organized kitchen. The beds were super comfortable, and the garden lovely - even prettier than the photos.

Peaceful retreat!

Bill's place is wonderful. So many thoughtful details. All the comforts are covered. And the multiple outdoor spaces around the property are beautiful and serene. He's put so much care into the place and you can feel it. The location couldn't be better for exploring the 17 mile drive, Carmel and Monterey. Thanks so much Bill!

We just stayed 2 nights but really enjoyed the cottage. It was cozy and comfortable and the peace and quiet was very appreciated. The cottage has a lot of great amenities although it would take a longer stay to enjoy all of them.
