This is a rare jewel of a place. My wife and I had a wonderful stay at this retreat in Carmel. It was close to everything but far enough away that we had privacy, peace and quiet. The hot tub worked very well and the property itself is lovely.

The Casita was an enjoyable and unique part of our coastal get away…and the casita was exactly that…a getaway from the tourists in the area where we truly relaxed and enjoyed each other’s company. We enjoyed the creativity & design of the property

Quiet and cozy

Loved our stay here….nestled up amongst the trees so it was very peaceful and secluded. Loved relaxing watching the fog roll through in the morning. Comfy bed!

Peterson went out of his way to make us feel welcome. The cottage was clean and comfortable. The amenities were extraordinary. Although the place does not have central heat the wood stove created a warm and peaceful environment. Enjoyed the serenity of the patio area during the starry quiet night. The wifi and cell service is almost non existing, but who cares. If you are looking for a peaceful get away in a relaxing environment, this is the place to stay. Peterson welcomed us to tour the grounds which has an interesting past worth exploring. We will surely return.

A quiet July 4th

I was looking for a quiet place for me and my dogs for the July 4th holiday. My cozy cabin was perfect. Peterson was a wonderful host and I felt at home while there. I would go again.

Most excellent stay

This place was in te country and very quiet with an artistic and very functional house plus a huge deck. Sunny every day (above the fog line) and we mostly stayed at the place. Took some nice hikes. The host was wonderful and we want to go back soon.

Beautiful and eclectic masterpiece

This was the most interesting and gorgeous place I've ever stayed. Read the articles and booklets about the place! It was hand built by the owner over 10 years with art and architectural pieces collected from around the world over the course of his lifetime. Absolutely fascinating and incredible.

Carmel Stay

This is one of the most unique places that we have ever stayed at and we thoroughly enjoyed the serene vibe that it brings. The architecture, vintage artifacts, gardens, statues and design is extremely enchanting and dreamy! The only downfall was the hot tub; it wasn't what we expected and no instructions were provided on how to operate it or if it worked at all? Otherwise, the secluded cottage is a phenomenal place to stay!

Great Property with an interesting past

Aside from a few outdated listing pictures of the cottage, the experience was pretty magical. Location was perfectly situated between Carmel and Monterey. Access to property was seamless and the host was probably the most interesting man in the world. He was there only when we needed and got to share some great stories. Highly suggest experiencing this for yourself.
