This great little spot in Carmel Valley was a wonderful, quiet location that was both convenient for activities and out of the hustle and bustle in Carmel-by-the-sea and Monterey. The cottage was lovely — fresh and clean, had everything we needed. We enjoyed spending time relaxing by the river and walking at nearby Garland Ranch Regional Park. The cottage is decorated with a clean, minimal aesthetic, yet perfectly welcoming and comfortable. The bed and bedding were very comfortable. We were perfectly happy with this spot! Only minor difficulty was finding the cottage upon our arrival, but it’s just sort of the nature of the neighborhood. ##### Laura G.

The hosts were extremely attentive and just good people. We loved everything about it and would highly recommend. ##### Nicki S.
