Private spot with amazing view

I stayed here with my sister and her wife for a long weekend. It felt like a private oasis in the woods but was close to Carmel by the Sea and everything we were wanting to see in the Big Sur area. Amazing views of the ocean. Very clean. There are some nuances to be aware of if you want to cook (having to light the pilot, lighters are provided), and use the hot tub (the jets may come on to circulate the water if it drops below the pre-set temp). You have to drive up a pretty steep hill, I'd recommend trying to do it in daylight the first time to get the hang of it.

We really enjoyed our stay. The property was as advertised and more! It was out of the way and very quiet, but within minutes of town. The kitchen was stocked exceptionally well, with everything you’d need to cook a gourmet meal! Karin was a very gracious host!

Absolutely Fabulous!

We had a wonderful stay here! The house is on a large, lush and quiet property up on a hill and has a great view of the ocean. We saw some of the most beautiful sunsets from the large deck. The house is darling and is so clean, comfortable, and well appointed. The beds are really comfortable with nice bedding and pillows. Close to hiking locations and to the shopping and restaurants at Carmel-by-the-Sea. Check in was simple and the host was very accessible for any questions we had. We will absolutely be returning! Highly recommend!

Amazing

I spent 3 nights with my mom and daughter. The house is beautiful, perfectly comfortable, and lots of little touches to help you enjoy it thoroughly: flip flops of all sizes provided to get to the spa area, tons of towels, robes, binoculars and Audubon guide, and more. I also appreciated the beautiful container plants all around the property. Well done!

Karin’s place is beautiful. The kitchen is well stocked and the views from the house and hot tub were stunning. The beds were really comfortable. Communication was great. Be mindful that smaller cars may struggle to drive up the steep road to the house but otherwise great!

Pictures were great actual location and stay were better

The property itself is incredible. Too many great things to list them all but I’ll start with a couple. #1 Outdoor warm shower right next to the private fenced in spa that has lounge chairs and a great view. #2 The deck on the main house has views And sunsets to die for. #3 A great kitchen with very upscale of appliances and every cooking utensil you can think of to prepare gourmet meals. #4 Very close to downtown Carmel, but far enough out where you feel very secluded. #5 The host was incredible. Gave us tips on hiking restaurants, and anything that we needed. I could go on and on, but all I will say is it’s one of the best VRBO we’ve ever stayed in and we stay in a lot.
