Cute and quaint
We loved Barb’s place so much. Very clean and cozy. Perfect for my husband and I to visit Carmel and surrounding areas. Comfy bed and nice amenities. All of Barb’s restaurant recommendations were spot on. Favorite being Dametra Cafe and least being Misson Ranch. Cooler weather than I expected in June, and always windy so needed jackets daily. Fog doesn’t burn off till noon sometimes so plan sight seeing accordingly. Gorgeous sunsets from beach. Love the charm and lovely feeling you get from Carmel and Barb’s place!

Great host!
Enjoyed staying at the cottage. The amenities that Barb provides her guests are exceptional. And she is equally as lovely. Great location close to everything. Got to hike Point Lobos, go to the aquarium, take some beautiful beach walks, antiquing, and do a e-bike tour of the 17 mile drive. One issue for me was that the internet is a bit sketchy in the cottage. I had a few things I needed to do for work and had to move around and sometimes go outside to get connected. But not a huge issue. Just be aware if it is important to you. Overall, great experience.

Nice Wonderful cottage!
The cottage is large with a comfortable bed, nice bathroom, functional kitchen, sitting couch for tv plus an outside beautiful table next to a garden, very peaceful. Wonderful & nice owners who are very quick to help & friendly, but leave you alone unless needed for something. It is a very nice place to stay in Carmel by the Sea.

This cottage is so cozy and quiet. Perfect place to rest . I love the couch and armchair. The kitchen has all you need to cook a meal. There is an assigned parking space too. It’s close drive to downtown. The owner is very thoughtful and communicative if you need anything. I highly recommend.

Great Holiday Stay
We stayed over Christmas and were greeted with a bottle of wine, a basket of snacks and several other sweet treats. The cottage had everything you would want or need in a home away from home. The location is in a nice neighborhood close to all the coastal activities. We did them all! The outdoor patio was so well done. We highly recommend a stay here!

Blessed!!!
Lovely, peaceful, and little surprises throughout the cottage and property - a true gem.
Great communication and an overall comfortable stay. Highly recommended for couples wanting a quieter stay away from downtown Carmel, but still close enough to walk into it. The walk back uphill will be tough, but rideshare options are always available and pretty affordable too. Can't stress enough how sweet and helpful the property owner was. Haven't ever encountered that with any B&B's. Can't wait to come back and stay again!

Clean, comfortable and quiet stay in a beautiful garden setting
The property is located in a quiet neighborhood a short drive from the village. The guesthouse is very clean throughout with high quality, comfortable furnishings and linens. The host was very friendly and hospitable. The outdoor space is a great place to start and end the day. We enjoyed our stay very much. We agree with some of the other reviews regarding the need for some clear surfaces for guest's belongings.

Great stay in cottage!
Great stay in nature and walking distance to DT Carmel. Barb and Jerry are very kind and the cottage is well equipped and very cute! We will definitely be back. Only thing to mention is that you truly are in nature with many beautiful birds, which are early risers :) so if you're trying to sleep in late, that may be tough here.

Excellent location for our stay in Carmel. Barb was very accommodating and thinks of all the things you may need while on vacation. We enjoyed the patio with the bird and squirrel watching. Close to town and the restaurants are incredible. Also a great place to leave from to do some local cycling.
