Perfect guests! Any owner should be happy to have guests like these stay in their place! Looking forward to hosting you again later this year!
Our family had a wonderful stay here. Very quiet and safe, away from the crowds. Plenty of restaurants in walking distance, for those who defer using the kitchen (which is nicely equipped).

I'm so glad you enjoyed your stay. Also, thank you for washing the sheets, you really didn't have to!
We had a wonderful stay!!! The cabin is very clean and had a lot of small details that made it just lovely to stay in. It had everything we needed and then some. Carmel valley village is lovely with a lot of delicious wine and food as well. Perfect getaway for a few days.
It was wonderful! So cozy and our fur baby loved the deck and fenced yard.
The weather was perfect and Carmel Valley is so beautiful, great little shops, restaurants too!
Hope to visit again soon!
The stay was very nice and comfortable. We loved all the amenities and decor. A lot of thought and care was put into this cozy cabin for guests to enjoy. We liked that it was pet friendly and the dogs enjoyed the freedom of the yard.
Our second stay here and the owner keeps the place up nicely. Cozy and comfy, enough of everything, fenced in yard for the dogs, easy access to Carmel Valley stores and the wonderful community river walks for the dogs. Easy access to Carmel and Monterey for charging our EV.
Rachelle's little cabin is so warm and comfy we had no problem feeling at home! It was raining most of our stay but we still had the best time staying in and making a nice warm fire. Thank you for sharing your home - we've made some great memories there!

Thanks for the kind words. You are both wonderful and respectful guests, leaving the place just as clean as you found it. I really appreciate that and you are welcome back anytime!
This is our second time staying in this cabin. We love the location; a short walk to Carmel Village. The house is comfortable and the fact that we can bring our two dogs and know they have access to a fenced yard is an added bonus. We will be back.
Great visit to Carmel Valley! Great restaurants, wine tasting, friendly people. Will come again. Accommodations were great - spacious living room with good sized kitchen. Quiet neighborhood and not too far to walk to village area.

Good house and great for dogs!
Nicely outfitted house, quiet and serene. Fantastic shady hiking - easy or hard- in nearby Garland Ranch that allows off-leash dogs.
We stayed here for two nights to attend a wedding in the area. The cabin was adorable, spotlessly clean and great location. Very good communication, easy check-in (as long as you don't have to use the keypad) and comfortable bed. Lots of towels and treats!
Beautiful spot with all the amenities. Fulk kitchen. Made all our meals here.Stayed here for the Big Sur marathon. Rachelle was a great host. Very responsive. Would definitely stay again.
The property was very clean. It was just as described a very cozy cabin. We also had our dogs with us and the side yard was perfect for them to go out when they needed. We really enjoyed this trip. Thank you so much.
We loved the cozy little cabin. The kitchen had everything we needed for cooking. The bed was super comfortable. The dogs liked the backyard to run around in. Lots of treasures in town, the delightful walkable bakery and cute tasting rooms.

Thank you, Theresa, it was a pleasure hosting you both!
Rachelle was a great host and very accommodating. The place was extremely clean. The location is close to a bunch of wineries in the Valley and just a short drive to Carmel-by-the-Sea.

Why they chose this property
Creating this cabin retreat was a fun project and a quest for me. I drew inspiration from travels to wild places and I strove to bring beautiful elements of the outdoors and nature inside.
What makes this property unique
A cabin atmosphere in an exquisite area of California. Perfect for those who love wine tasting, as there are 11 wine tasting rooms within walking distance, as well as only a 20 minute ride to Carmel By the Sea, and only 30 minutes to Monterey's Cannery Row, Pebble Beach and other Monterey Peninsula attractions.
