Thank you for your generous hospitality. The wine we had with our friends and the passes to the aquarium were so thoughtful. We had forgotten how beautiful the Carmel area is. We loved our visit.

Home Sweet Vacation Home

Review Submitted: December 28, 2011 Date of Stay: December 2011
Dear Chuck & Diane,

This is our first night here, but we’re already so impressed! Greeted by you in person & with a beautifully handwritten card, we immediately felt at home. To top it off, there were aquarium passes & wine prepared with love. We’re in love with the fine decorations – every detail that went into making this cottage an artistic experience. It’s a pleasant surprise every time we “discovered” a “new” plant or painting.

After an evening walk in Carmel-by-the-Sea & an appetizing dinner at Village Corner, we truly appreciate the starry night & the tranquil forest. Of course, nothing beats returning home with a warm fireplace... (to be continued).

We all had a good night of sleep – the beds were very comfy. Naturally waking up to welcome sunrise in the forest felt magical. Thanks for letting us borrow your golf clubs! Admiring the beauty along 17-Mile Drive with a final stop to play just one round of golf was quite a treat to the mind and body. We finished the day with a brief aquarium visit (thanks again!) & a candlelight dinner at Abalonetti by the sea!

Love, love Moonglow!

Owner's Response: Thank you, Ting. We would welcome your return.

The hot tub was a treat!

Chuck & Diane,

Thanks for sharing this little gem with us. We got the relaxation & respite we needed. Your hospitality & attentiveness was much appreciated. We had a fabulous dinner at Casanova’s & will have to come back to do it again. The hot tub with Christmas lights was a treat.

The only downside was the trip was too short!!

Thanks. Kirsten & Andrew

A perfect place to rekindle the flame

Moonglow is a magical place to stay
When we arrived the sky was gray
But there was a fire, a sweet note and some wine on a tray
Such charm, a Jacuzzi and a cat out of clay
What a treasure to find – what else can we say?

To celebrate my 53rd birthday we came
A perfect place to rekindle the flame
Explore the beauty and history of such fame
Stroll Carmel Beach, hike Point Lobos and play a game!

We love it so – who is to blame?

Review Submitted: November 18, 2011 Date of Stay: November 2011
Moonglow turned out to be a beautiful sanctuary for me. I was able to re-connect to a part of California that I had forgotten how much I loved. I so enjoyed the hot tub, confortable bed and my little cozy space. Thank you so much and I will return some day.
