European furnishings, contemporary state-of-the-art lighting, gourmet kitchen with concrete counter tops, designer bedding, numerous tasteful art pieces, cozy library, & DSL wireless for staying in touch. There is a secret loft area in the main house for children to enjoy.

Outdoors you'll find front and back decks, a fire-pit for sitting around in the evening, great views, and direct access to 5,000 acres of park trails. The lupin covered hillsides in springtime are an amazing natural wonder. Watching the sun rise or set over the hills is a fabulous experience. There are hundreds of miles of bicycling trails for a casual biker or the most avid of mountain biking enthusiasts.

A short drive puts you at any of several beaches, wine tasting rooms, the Aquarium, Point Lobos, Big Sur, Carmel, Steinbeck House, Cannery Row, agricultural fields and vineyards, old California missions, the Laguna Seca Raceway, a plethora of restaurants, and numerous other activities. Return to the house for dining on the deck, getting into the spa, enjoying the sunset & star gazing. A truly unique house in a very unique setting.

Additional sleeping accommodations include a french fold-down queen bed (very comfortable), a sleeping sofa and a children's loft area (parental supervision recommended). Large hot tub for 6 people. There is also the detached Guest House which sleeps 4 (1 king size bed & 1 queen), 1.5 baths, exercise room, and hot tub for 2 overlooking the hills. All very private and secluded to provide an escape from the ordinary to the extraordinary. The Main House may be rented without the Guest House for smaller groups.

Excellent patios and decks all over the property for the perfect relaxing occasion. Sip a cool drink while enjoying the fire-pit on the back deck and chatting with friends & family. Sit on the upper stone patio in the late afternoon sun with views of the valley below. Enjoy the garden table in the front courtyard. Take a hike up the hill to the waiting bench for spectacular views.

Great honeymoon location

5 of 5
Submitted: May 23, 2013 Stayed: May 2013
After a frantic wedding week it was great to relax in this fantastic guest house. The bedrooms are on different levels, which were great with our daughter, as we both got some space and peace and quiet. The facilities are excellent, everything is very modern and comfortable, with free fast wi-fi (much better/faster than the hotels we stayed in with a resort fee). The outdoor space was the best part, lots of different tables and chairs to make use of as the sun moved round the house, as well as a BBQ and a really nice hot tub in the back, which was great for evenings under the stars.

Vicki was extremely helpful throughout the booking process, we are from the UK, so she made everything very easy and was great, with a very helpful guide on how to use everything in the house, as well as recommendations for the surrounding areas. She left a nice bottle of wine and some chocolate out for when we arrived, which was a nice touch.

About a 10-15 minute drive into Monterey and the surrounding areas, which was good. Not far enough to be a hassle, but far enough to have fantastic weather even if the coast is a bit foggy.

There is also a fantastic store on the freeway just before you turn off to the house, great service and great cheese selection.

Extremely happy with our stay, would highly recommend.

The houses are gorgeous and impeccably furnished. The beds are highest quality, so comfortable! Our group of 10 loved hanging out in the open kitchen/living area, preparing meals and laughing together. Vicki and Robert are incredibly thoughtful hosts, from the welcome touches to helping us fix the internet right away (provider fault) for those of us who couldn't quite log off completely. All the outdoor spaces to congregate are really great for different times of day. The property is so private and the surrounding area is gorgeous. We enjoyed hikes up out the back gate - steep hill! - into the rolling Carmel Valley hills. We would love to return and would recommend this to our friends.

Wonderful, quiet getaway!

We recently visited Monterey for work and there were several of us traveling together. We rented both the main house and the guest house. Both were wonderfully appointed with fun, cozy furniture and fabulous artwork. The owners did all the upgrades to the houses themselves and used bright, fun colors and put in huge windows that allow lots of light and give an open feel to the beautiful canyon right outside the windows. The kitchen is very well appointed with all kinds of pots/pans/dishes, etc... We cooked nearly every night. The bedding was high-quality and cozy. My favorite room of the main house was the dining room with it's giant table and huge windows and stark but welcoming feel. The owners were as welcoming and hospitable as if we were in a 5-star hotel - but better, because unlike fancy hotels, the WIFI there is free! I highly recommend this property to anyone visiting Monterey.

Everything thing was exactly as described, if not better.

We were there for five days, w/ our family of five. Everyone loved the house, furnishings, artwork, stairway (!), etc.

The house was absolutely spotless, and the owners were great. (We only went to one of their recommended restaurants but it (Tarpey's) was spot-on as well.)

We do vacation house rentals around CA three or four times a year, and this one really stands out.

I'm sure we'll be back.

We just returned from a family reunion in the Monterey area and this house was home base for us out-of-towners. Everything is just as described in the listing. The place is classy, eclectic, comfortable, convenient and clean. The setting is gorgeous.The owners were very flexible and accommodating. The weather was chilly so we didn't get to sit outside at the multiple cool seating areas but we did take long walks on the nearby trails (don't miss). I would love to stay there again.
If you're a Steinbeck fan I highly recommend the John Steinbeck Center (museum), just a few minutes away in Salinas. (This is different than the Steinbeck House, which you can also visit.) Well worth the visit.
