It was very well appointed—especially for cooking. The natural surroundings were very peaceful with hiking trails right out the side gate. We did not realize the travel time to Carmel-by-the-Sea, but it was still doable. And for our five adults and family dog, it was the perfect size. ##### Mindi V.

The outdoor space was absolutely amazing. The dogs enjoyed exploring the yard every day. Yard is fenced so the dogs had the freedom to roam around and still be near by. Saw lots of birds, squirrels and deer from the property. Weather was great for sun bathing and swimming. Would stay here again and would recommend for anyone traveling with dogs. ##### Daisy K.

It wans't heated. We were disapointed since the pool was the mail attraction, and the reason we picked that house over other houses. And the email questions were not answered. ##### Larisa R.

The Native American decor with a splash of other ethnic touches and bohemian fixtures was well-appointed. Our family enjoyed walking to the property line that we could manage on foot. Our dogs appreciated the daily visit of the wild turkeys and explored all parts of the fenced-in areas. The pool was utilized on-the-daily by the children and when inside they played board games; I rarely had to entertain them...it was excellent! That apartment was the perfect separation from the kid chatter. We practically used every utensil creating dishes and enjoying smores from the fire. There was a minor technical difficulty with the front security gate, but Mary was as responsive as she could be for a holiday week. We would totally consider this property again. ##### Ebony G. Stayed 5 nights in Jul 2023 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### catherine v. 2 Feb 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Spectacular setting Mary is a lovely host - responsive and gracious - and her property is magical. The views are spectacular, and the house is comfortable, clean and abundantly cozy. Its location makes for unparalleled privacy. To reach this Shangri-la be prepared for a miles-long drive on a narrow, winding, mountain road full of sharp switchbacks. The destination is worth any white-knuckle moments; tranquility abounds. This remote retreat is ideally situated for those who don't desire nighttime excursions to town or beyond. The kitchen is well-equipped and the outdoor dining space is gorgeous, so no need to dine out if you shop in advance. One detail to be aware of in chilly months: Space heaters are the heat source for the two rooms attached to the main house, and they cannot be kept on overnight. It wasn't an issue for us; after heating the room prior to bedtime, we were perfectly comfortable in mid-January temps. We would recommend that the binder of house instructions be updated; it contained information that was inaccurate (including wi-fi details). Our stay was short and regretfully we didn't have time to explore this stunning 20-acre property. Would love to return in warmer months to bask in the serenity and to take advantage of the lovely pool. ##### catherine v. Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2024 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### debbie s. 16 Aug 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, listing accuracy Disliked: Location #### Nice Remote Location - Weather Beautiful This is a nice comfortable cozy remote place with fenced in area for your dog(s) which is a plus. The weather was beautiful during our stay which was also a plus. My only complaints were the remote area and semi-dangerous road if you have a large vehicle..in some spots, only room for one vehicle to go thru. I would never drive Cachagua Road in the dark, but it was definitely listed in the description, so my fault. I live remotely also, so I thought it would be fine, but I did not realize the narrowness of the road. Another thing that I did not see in the description was that the pool was only 3 1/2 feet deep & very small--maybe I missed that? I rent a home every year, mainly for a dog friendly home & the pool only, so that was a disappointment. Our family likes to lap swim & this was not possible. Also, the carpet in the main house upstairs bedroom & downstairs den were not the cleanest, but fine with that because we spent most of our time outside on the beautiful deck by the pool or in the beautiful family room. Pluses, I like the fact that there is an additional frig.in the side room so that you can get all the food you need for a week in advance & never have to leave the house. Also, loved the separate apartment semi-attached to the house so other adults could have privacy. All in all we had a good stay. Only reason I would not stay again is because of the small and shallow pool, but that is a personal preference issue. Thank you for sharing your lovely home. ##### debbie s.

This property is so relaxing Loved our stay there. Yes the road to get there is windy but not too bad at all, we went into town almost daily. Very pet friendly too! We would return in a minute Thanks Steven for being so helpful! ##### karen q.

The property has beautiful views which can’t be beat, and enough comfortable space to keep you happy and entertained. While the road up is long and windy, once you’re there you won’t want to leave, so come prepared. This was our second time staying at this property and I would happily stay here again! ##### Melanie S.

This property was listed as “excellent” and it did not disappoint. We will be back soon. Thank you! ##### Joan F.

It felt like the cross between a Tahoe cabin and Sonoma vineyard. The home is incredibly well stocked; If you arrive with ample groceries, you'll really have no reason to ever leave. The hot tub, with its mountain views, is just lovely. And the house's interior is gorgeous, with many rooms paneled entirely with wood. ##### Jared S.
