Our special and spacious five-bed / five-bath ranch-style home is located on five-acres in the estate area of Carmel commonly known as Jacks Peak. Although secluded and quiet, it is conveniently and centrally situated between Carmel and Monterey. You will be just minutes from anywhere on the entire Monterey Peninsula, yet surrounded by majestic oak and pine trees, with a huge yard in which to play. Built in the 40’s, remodeled in the 60’s and recently updated, this home is perfect for family vacations, corporate retreats, and other special occasions. It is a wonderful place to gather for a family reunion, anniversary or important birthday celebration. If you are interested please be aware that our property, while centrally located, is surrounded by five-acre estates with neighbors who appreciate this unique natural setting. In consideration of our neighbors, we have limits on the size and nature of parties, loud music or noisy activities (especially outside) and on anything that may disrupt the neighborhood. The property is not a venue for large parties or events. All five bedrooms have queen beds and each bedroom has its own bathroom with shower. The house sleeps 10 comfortably. There is ample floor space and we have a couple of airbeds and mats to accommodate more, especially children, if needed. Amenities include a cozy hot tub for two on a large deck off the master bedroom, with a custom-built in-ground hot tub for larger groups just a few steps away. Croquet, basketball, badminton, volleyball, bocce ball and Frisbee equipment are all located on-site and there is plenty room to play. There is a large front lawn that is seasonally green when rain is available. There is also a large brick patio with tables, chairs and fireplace that can be used in the winter. No outside fires are permitted during fire season (generally April - Nov). Both the large living room and master bedroom have fireplaces. The living room has a vintage piano, two sofas, two club chairs, a corner TV and stereo. The French doors in the living room open onto a welcoming, bright, brick-floor enclosed Lanai with skylights. The dining room has a table that is made for eight but will easily seat 10\. Many a family gathering has led to improvised (yet cramped) seating for up to 12\. French doors lead to a large backyard deck, which features a large table with six chairs, a small table with two chairs, a built-in bench and two lounge chairs. There is a five-burner gas grill and two propane heaters. Off the dining room is a modest fully stocked kitchen with a large work island and windows to the wooded backyard. There is also a kitchen nook (host to many beautiful sunrises), with a small dining table, bench and four chairs. The four bedrooms on the main floor, the living room, dining room, and hallways all feature oak hardwood floors. The kitchen floor is refinished fir. Area rugs are mostly oriental. Each bedroom has an attached bathroom, with shower. The daylight downstairs has recently been renovated with new carpet and tile. It features a large, bright bedroom with a built-in desk and views of the garden, a bathroom, small 11 X 13 play area and laundry facilities.

The kitchen is a little bit old-fashioned, but it definitely is equipped, but just about everything you could dream of having in the kitchen. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/beddefd3-7e0d-4809-b310-5ed4b4159642-1748833721561.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/014e55f3-6f7f-4cac-8e42-7ce51c19d053-1748833722810.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/153393b9-ee8f-4019-850b-3ef9c1c4904a-1748833721833.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### David P.

We enjoyed the five bedrooms and five bathrooms, the dining and living rooms and outdoor space including the two hot tubs. The location is away from the city, so very quiet, yet, within a 10 minute drive. The kitchen has everything needed to cook and serve a large family. The reason for my awarding of only 4 stars is that the interior of the house can use some refreshing and updating. Overall, I would not hesitate to recommend this property for a large family visiting the Monterey Bay Area. ##### Bruce Z. Stayed 5 nights in Sep 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Stephen R. 27 Apr 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Wonderful, Central Location in Monterey-Carmel-Pacific Grove Area The house was large and fully accommodated our extended family of 10 with 5 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms. the living room was large and comfortable, as was the dining room and kitchen (which was a popular gathering location, with its corner nook with great views). The grounds were spacious and spectacular--I have never seen landscaping as beautiful in the area and so true to the unique landscape components of the Monterey-Carmel area. Every one in the family commented daily on the beauty of the house and grounds. The interior of the house, though a bit dated (as others have mentioned), seems deliberately faithful to its provenance and was comfortable and a good experience in every way; the spacious deck was especially pleasant. And the view in every direction of the wonderfully landscaped grounds was beautiful in a way that itself became a significant part of everyone's enjoyment of our stay on the Peninsula. And the landscaping and the architecture of the place seemed to bring together the unique feel of the area in a way I had never experienced before, even having grown up there and visited many times. I have perhaps overused the word "unique", but the feeling of unique beauty lingers still. A great place for our family get-together. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/9ee854b2-229e-4f3b-a3c0-2417b9bd840d-1745783527670.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/2aa4ff99-ad8e-4fd9-86cc-9364a771e492-1745783528950.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/5acf77e2-9edb-449e-b110-05667e099eed-1745783520918.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/bd196b35-75e3-45d3-bdb2-22671761ecf1-1745783554003.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Stephen R.

From the large in ground hot tub, to the most well stock home we have ever stayed in, to the timely responses to our every question or request, to the numerous places that seven of us could gather, dine or just enjoy the serenity of the home and grounds, it surpassed every expectation! We are booking our return stay. ##### Brynn E. Stayed 9 nights in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Anne T. 21 Oct 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy We had a wonderful and relaxing stay in this beautiful, charming and spacious home. It was the perfect spot for our large family attending a wedding in Monterey. The home is well appointed with an interesting vintage vibe along with all the modern comforts you would ever need. The property is truly stunning with hot tubs, decks and patios along with several acres of beautiful vistas. Great pride and care of ownership shine throughout this home and property. Thanks again and we do hope to return in the future! ##### Anne T.

The 5 rooms all with baths was perfect for extended family of mostly adults. We loved the scenic and peaceful "resort" like setting and the two hottubs had space for everyone. Close to Carmel and Monterey but not in the fray of the touristy parking mess made this the perfect place to stay. ##### Jeanne M.

He very much enjoyed the time there. Everything from the outdoor spaces and the hot tubs to the lovely, large home were well maintained. The site was centrally located for all the activities we had planned. We found the home to be very relaxing and comfortable when we were gathered together. We also appreciated how easy it was to communicate with Susan regarding questions. It is definitely a place we would enjoy returning to. ##### Aria K.
