About this property

Steps to ocean. Across the street from the Municipal Golf Course. License 0020

Located steps from Lovers Point, this cozy romantic retreat sleeps 2. Walk to the beach, town, or golf course, and be greeted by the small-town friendliness for which Pacific Grove is famous. The bike/pedestrian path follows the coastline from Pacific Grove to Fort Ord and is 75 steps from the cottage. The bike path takes you to the Aquarium, Cannery Row, and Fisherman's Wharf with spectacular ocean vistas.. Excellent restaurants within walking distance.
The cottage is an easy drive to Carmel, Pebble Beach, and Monterey. A complimentary bottle of wine awaits your arrival.

Come to the exciting Pacific Ocean and watch frolicking otters, take long walks along the bike path (100 steps from our front door) for miles along the Pacific Ocean.: See sea birds swimming in the surf; monarch butterflies landing in the trees; waves breaking against a sandy beach, and seals calving at Hopkins Marine Station beach.

Leave your cares at the door. The cottage offers tranquility that will restore your spirits. We offer coffee, tea, water, and a complimentary bottle of wine to help you settle in as well as paper products and all linens and kitchen equipment.

Restaurants, shops : Everything you need to stock your cottage is within 10 minutes of the cottage. Walk 1 block to the beach-side grill with clam chowder in sour dough bowls with spectacular views of the cove and the open sea beyond. Walk 3 blocks to LIghthouse Avenue where a myriad of restaurants and cafes await you along with little shops for browsing and boutiques with stylish clothes. Enjoy a spa treatment 2 blocks away at Amara Spa or have a manicure on Lighthouse Ave. See a movie at our theater on Lighthouse Ave. Walk l mile to the Tin Cannery (outlets), the Aquarium, and Cannery Row which offer shopping, dining and exhibits.

The cottage has 7 steps from the curb to the front door and a slight, 4" rise from the sun room into the living room. The glass-enclosed, shower over tub has one grab bar. Our Pacific Grove License is 0020.

Lovely, comfortable home in the perfect location in Pacific Grove. Walk to Lovers Point or walk to the restaurants and stores. Everything is close by and easily accessible.

We loved this place! This cottage was perfect for our stay over thanksgiving. We even pre-ordered a holiday dinner from Whole Foods and had the coziest thanksgiving dinner together. We took walks along the ocean everyday. I enjoyed sitting on the front steps and reading while watching people walk by with the their dogs. Everyone was so friendly ! We would absolutely love to book this property again in the future!

We absolutely loved this little cottage. The bed was so cozy and the shower was excellent. The kitchen had everything you may need to make meals. The location was also perfect. Just steps away from the beach and just up the street from the cottage were so many restaurants and shops. We would definitely stay here again.

We found Jill’s cottage to be charming, cosy and romantic and communication with Jill excellent. We were able to see Lover’s Cove from a front window and took late walks along the shore most evenings. Great location that is walking distance to most areas of interest in Pacific Grove. We brought bikes and kayaks, spent a week and seldom drove unless heading out of town.

I am a native of California and love the central and southern coasts. We enjoy sharing our cottage and lovely coastal town with our guests.

Why they chose this property

I vacationed in Pacific Grove as a young girl with my family. My husband learned Russian at the Defense Language Institute when he was stationed in Monterey while in the service. We loved the area and it kept calling to us.

What makes this property unique

The closeness of the water's edge and the friendliness of the residents make this an exceptional place to vacation and relax.
