About this property

Historic 'Cottage at the Cove' at Lover's Point - Your Home Away From Home

Cottage at the Cove is a lovely recently refurbished 1884 vintage Victorian located just steps from Lover's Point park and beach in the Retreat District. The oceanfront recreation trail leads you to the Point Pinos Lighthouse to the west and the Monterey Bay Aquarium and Cannery Row to the east. The wonderful Pacific Grove Municipal Golf Course is just around the corner. A 3 block walk to town will find you in the midst of Pacific Grove friendliness: shops for any and all necessities/frivolities, antiques and curios, grocery store, pharmacy, banks, bookstore, delightful restaurants and bakeries, library, museum, art galleries, historical gardens, various parks, and the four screen movie theater. Pacific Grove is a town without stoplights, still! Park your car at the cottage and enjoy Pacific Grove by foot.
Cottage at the Cove's broad sunny front porch with wicker furniture is the perfect spot to begin the day with coffee or tea. The charming rear garden is intimate and lovely.

Mid-week getaway

Loved the place! So many beautiful touches and items and the books, wow, so many from which to choose, yet, because the weather was absolutely gorgeous, none read! The kitchen was well stocked (we like to cook) and the dishes were beautiful and plentiful. The large jasmine outside the back door: blooming and so fragrant. Comfortable all the way around and did I mention the lovely additional touches! A short walk to Lovers Point, restaurants and paths along the water. Would love to come back!! Thanks Barbara!

We loved your cottage...

To Anyone Going to Pacific Grove, Barbara's cottage is a wonderful, classic, historic place to stay, and its a 3ish minute walk to Lovers Point and to downtown! Plus, the bike path starts at Lovers Point, which goes to Cannery Row and beyond to the marina! Super fun, and relaxing... Enjoy ~ Doug & Heidi ~
