We stayed 3 days at the cottage & we had an amazing time! The house is updated and beautiful. We were able to take our dog with us & there was a nice trail nearby that he loved. Downtown Carmel & the beach was super close. Bill was a wonderful host! He gave us directions to some places in town & suggested one of our favorite recommendations for dinner at Bruno’s Market & Deli. 10/10 experience, we felt so lucky to stay here

We really enjoyed our stay at the cottage. Bill was a fantastic host, very accommodating to our needs and gave us some great advice on places we should visit. The deck with loungers was a wonderful place to relax. In the cooler mornings and evenings we loved turning on the fireplaces for some warmth and ambiance. We would definitely stay here again.

Atherton cottage is a great getaway spot. It felt like an oasis while still being close to excellent restaurants and shops. The cottage had plenty of space and the king size bed was much appreciated. There are multiple outdoor patios/balconies, 2 of which have ocean views. Overall it was relaxing and would stay here again.

A great little cottage that is totally private and very cozy. Great space inside and a nice deck to enjoy. Parking is easy, and I love this location as I'm a walker and the wilderness trails are nearby for miles of hiking, plus for me it's an easy walk to the beach and the Mission. Great quiet neighborhood. I highly recommend this cottage and will definitely stay here again.

We had an amazing time at the beautifully remodeled, impeccably decorated, pet friendly charming Atherton cottage. We loved the private location, which is within walking distance to the Mission Trail Park, Carmel Mission and a very short drive to the Carmel Beach and town.The cottage has all the comforts of home from the abundance of cookware and pet dishes to the most comfortable king-sized bed.
