Forest Cabin nestled in oak sanctuary between Valley Village and Carmel Beach
Forest Cabin is a special retreat tucked in an old oak forest with an expansive valley view overlook. This newly renovated and handcrafted one-bedroom, one-bath cabin is located just up from Carmel Valley Rd, near Carmel Valley Ranch and Garland Ranch Park. The expansive private deck offers side by side cast iron soaking tubs under the forest canopy. The open living plan contains a sofa and a queen bed and old stone fireplace (fires permitted Nov-May). The updated vintage bathroom has a deep claw-foot tub with a shower handle extension, there is no standing shower. The open kitchen is equipped with a Chemex pour-over coffee carafe, electric kettle, toaster oven, toaster, microwave, and mini-fridge. There are many lovely details in the cabin fostering an old California feel and slow pace. The back of the cabin extends out into a wide wild oak forest which is completely open and private to our guests. We embrace non-toxic cleaners, organic cotton bedding, organic body products, and natural materials throughout to cultivate a harmonious environment. Enjoy clean living and peaceful space while you unwind and restore in this small forested sanctuary.

About the host
Hosted by Heather Rose
We love the Valley lifestyle here and have been enjoying cultivating our little homestead for the past few years. As much as we enjoy the natural beauty of Carmel Valley we also love to vacation in cities where we get our fix of great restaurants and new art exhibitions, however exciting we are always happy to return to our oak forest by the sea. It has been a pleasure to renovate the cabin on our property which we find very special and we hope that you will too.
Why they chose this property
Our property is on the “forest side” of the Valley which means it is cooler and there are many trees, mostly tan oaks but also bay, buckeye, and sycamores. We are also minutes from Garland Park with its many amazing and well maintained hiking trails throughout. We love our mid-valley location being close to both the Village and the ocean. Also our cabin is located on our private property and you will find a wild oak forest just outside the back door where you can often catch sight of deers and other wildlife.
What makes this property unique
Our cabin was original to the Garland Ranch property and is quite old. It has been pleasantly restored and upgraded, a rare gem.
