Our second stay here and the owner keeps the place up nicely. Cozy and comfy, enough of everything, fenced in yard for the dogs, easy access to Carmel Valley stores and the wonderful community river walks for the dogs. Easy access to Carmel and Monterey for charging our EV.

Relaxing stay in great location

This is our second time staying in this cabin. We love the location; a short walk to Carmel Village. The house is comfortable and the fact that we can bring our two dogs and know they have access to a fenced yard is an added bonus. We will be back.

Another Memorable Stay

Rachelle's little cabin is so warm and comfy we had no problem feeling at home! It was raining most of our stay but we still had the best time staying in and making a nice warm fire. Thank you for sharing your home - we've made some great memories there!

Perfect cozy cottage

We stayed here for two nights to attend a wedding in the area. The cabin was adorable, spotlessly clean and great location. Very good communication, easy check-in (as long as you don't have to use the keypad) and comfortable bed. Lots of towels and treats!

Little cabin in Carmel Valley

We loved the cozy little cabin. The kitchen had everything we needed for cooking. The bed was super comfortable. The dogs liked the backyard to run around in. Lots of treasures in town, the delightful walkable bakery and cute tasting rooms.

Small, but quaint home--it truly feels like a getaway in the middle of nowhere, but is right around the corner from the village. A lovely home we have now enjoyed several times. Thank you, Rachelle.

We loved it!

A very cozy cabin within easy walking distance of town, down a short quiet road. Four of us stayed the weekend for wine tasting and had a great time. The cabin decor was new and the furnishings were very comfortable. We spent a lot of time on the deck as it was convenient with the kitchen and a BBQ grille nearby.
