Unwind and recharge in a remote country setting, replacing the stresses of the world with abundant space, fresh air, and absolute peace & quiet. Step inside the 2,100 square foot three-bedroom home to find a spacious open floor plan with hardwood floors throughout. The luxurious master suite features a champagne bubbler tub for two. The large dining room seats eight comfortably with vaulted ceilings. Expansive picture windows & skylights maximize natural light and nature views. Elegant furnishings, natural wood tones, and a curated original art collection create an atmosphere that is warm and welcoming.

Outside, the property boasts expansive redwood decks overlooking a 20’x40’ seasonal saltwater pool, typically available May through October. The grounds feature extensive native landscaping and stonework, a covered outdoor kitchen/bar, a hot tub, and a creekside dining deck with overhead lighting. There are two tree houses, raised garden beds, a fruit tree orchard, a working Merlot vineyard, and a natural water feature popular with the native birds and frogs.

Bedroom 1 features a King bed and Bedroom 2 features a Queen bed, each with an organic cotton Saatva Classic 11.5” Luxury Firm innerspring mattress. Bedroom 3 features a 71” convertible futon that is larger than a Twin but not quite a Double. The only light pollution to contend with here is from the star-filled night sky. The Vineyard Chateau is designed to maximize comfort, entertainment, and leisure. Binge-watch your favorite streaming services on large flat-screen UHD TVs equipped with Amazon Fire TV. Immerse yourself in a sound bath with full-property Sonos. Curl up and enjoy a book by the pool. Let the kids loose to play on the trampoline, tree swings, or enjoy the Xbox One with a large library of games. Pull out a board game or tickle the ivories on the vintage Mason & Hamlin upright piano. Or take it up a notch with an in-home private massage, requested from our online guest store after booking. Food lovers will appreciate a fully equipped gourmet chef’s kitchen featuring a 5’x12’ granite countertop, gas range, double convection oven, toaster oven, Technivorm coffee maker, Breville burr coffee grinder, electric tea kettle, Vitamix blender, KitchenAid stand mixer, All Clad cookware, and full tableware. The pantry is stocked with essential herbs, spices, olive oil, organic gourmet coffee beans, and a selection of herbal teas. Guests need only bring their preferred ingredients to create epicurean adventures at the Vineyard Chateau. For those who prefer to dine-in without cooking or cleaning, an in-home private chef experience, complete with groceries, is available for purchase from our online guest store after booking. Experience al fresco dining with multiple outdoor spaces that invite you to savor meals surrounded by nature. The covered poolside kitchen/bar is perfect for casual get-togethers, while the creekside dining deck offers an enchanting setting for dinner under the stars. And the Weber Performer charcoal grill, Weber Smokey Mountain smoker, grill tools, and outdoor tableware make it easy to do just that. The artisan Merlot produced from our vineyard is produced & bottled through our boutique winery, CVVC, and is available to on-site guests who are 21 or older. The wine can be purchased by the bottle, or as part of a personalized on-property wine experience hosted by a local Carmel Valley wine professional, such as a poolside food & wine pairing or a vineyard tour & pour. These wine-related offerings can be purchased through our online guest store after booking. Just because you’re venturing out to the country doesn’t mean you have to disconnect from it all. High-speed, low-latency 25 Mbps internet, full-property WiFi coverage, and a dedicated workspace for two in bedroom 3 enable you to keep up with your work on an extended stay-cation at the Vineyard Chateau. ### Guest access You’ll have exclusive access to the main house, pool, and hot tub, with shared access to the grounds maintained by a small, discreet staff. A private paved driveway off the main road provides easy access and ample parking near the house. Smart-lock entrances allow you to come and go freely, with secure storage for your belongings. ### Other details to note The property is a large working country estate with a vineyard, orchard, and extensive landscaping that require regular maintenance. To keep everything beautiful and functional, our caretaker lives in a unit on the other side of the property, over 150 feet from the main house, and additional team members visit occasionally. The caretaker and team are informed of guest schedules and aim to work when guests are out or least likely to be disturbed, but you may notice some activity on the grounds, especially during longer stays. Thanks for understanding — it’s all part of what keeps this place special! Please note that AT&T is the only available cellular service provider on the property. If you're not an AT&T subscriber, don't worry! You can connect your smartphone to our WiFi service and enable WiFi Calling to make and receive calls. For your convenience and/or emergency 911 calls, we also provide VoIP landline phones throughout the house - you'll find one in the kitchen, one in the office, and another in the master bedroom. As a private home with a shared network, WiFi access requires entry of a name & email to maintain network security and protect against malicious activity (e.g., fraud, spam, illegal content). Guests may opt-in to receive updates on future stays and winery offerings. Optional amenities such as a private massage, private chef experience, or wine tasting are available for additional fees. Wine purchases are handled separately by our licensed winery, per legal requirements. At the Vineyard Chateau, we take your privacy seriously while ensuring the safety of our property. We have security cameras installed around the exterior of the home, specifically at the driveway, entrances, pool, and garage. These cameras record video only (no audio) to a local DVR. Please note, we access the footage solely in response to security or safety issues reported by you or in cooperation with law enforcement. The purpose of these cameras is to protect the home when it's not occupied, not to monitor our guests. ### Interaction with guests Kathie, our attentive co-host, lives nearby and will be your primary contact throughout your stay.

This is an above and beyond home. Every detail is meticulous, not ostentatious but lovely, warm and inviting. The bed was the most comfortable ever, the kitchen was insanely equipped with everything you could possibly imagine, the grounds were immaculate, the hot tub was wonderful and it was one big playground for kids to explore and revel in! And the hosts could not have been nicer and more communicative and accommodating! This is definitely a place I want to come back to again and again! I can't say enough god things! I just wish there were enough beds to come back with friends because it's so spacious (I understand that's a Carmel thing, not the host choice.) ##### Donna G.
