Cozy and spacious one bedroom, one bath cottage, with bonus room, in beautiful Pacific Grove, CA. Queen bed in bedroom, Pull-out queen sofa bed in living room, and day bed in bonus room. 10 minute walk to beautiful Asilomar Beach with white sand and gorgeous views, and an amazing dog beach..We Do Allow Pets.....Located between Monterey and Carmel on a large forested lot with a play set and a fire pit. Just a few minutes (maybe 3 : ) ) drive to the entrance gate of scenic, 17 Mile Drive. Pet friendly! This charming 1935 cottage is located in the Coastal Zone of Pacific Grove. The cottage has a full sized washer and dryer and a fully equipped kitchen with a separate dining room. The kitchen has pots/pans, bake ware, dishes, silverware, a coffee pot, microwave, toaster, and a hot/cold purified drinking water dispenser. There is a television in the living room and one in the bedroom. Both tvs have Rokus which are already signed in to Netflicks and Hulu. The fireplace inside can be used for gas or wood burning fires. There is LOTS of firewood stacked on the property for guest use.

The cottage is in a forested neighborhood with lots of large trees and quiet streets. At night you can sit outside at the fire pit and see so many stars while roasting marshmallows and listening to the ocean surf. It is the perfect place for a remarkable stay!!

Wonderful cabin, perfect location

Loved this little cottage and my husband and I were so sad to leave. It was cute and cozy, located in a quiet and calm neighborhood. The beach was only a 10-ish minute walk away. We loved exploring the area and hope to be back one day!

Pacific Grove Hideout

Perfectly located and walking distance from Spanish Bay / Asilomar Beach. Home was very clean and well-maintained with plenty of supplies / amenities for a month long stay. Tamara and Joseph were wonderful hosts and could be reached at a moment's notice no matter the concern. Hope to be back soon in the future!

Beautiful setting for an old-timey house

We enjoyed staying at this house for a month. The beautiful forest of trees spreading across most of Pacific Grove is a treat. The house is about a ten minute walk to beautiful Asilomar Beach. The weather, of course, is wonderfully cool (we’re from the hot desert). Restaurants and amenities in the area are good, including a Monday afternoon farmer’s market. The house itself is quite old, but the kitchen, utilities, laundry facilities, and Internet /TV have all been nicely upgraded. The host was almost instantly responsive and it was particularly nice that she provided free passes to the Monterey Bay Aquarium. We have no real complaints but would have appreciate a few more furniture pieces in the living room and little better outside chairs. Overall, we enjoyed ourselves very much here.

Trip of a lifetime!

We are so grateful that we got the opportunity to stay in this most adorable and charming house in Pacific Grove. We stayed here for 30 days and I didn't want to leave! Everything is absolutely perfect, clean and comfortable. We appreciate all the little touches so much; such as very comfortable beds, soft bedding, towels, coffee, everything you need for s'mores and even chocolates. The kitchen is completely stocked with pots and pans so you can make meals at home. The house is a great location and less than a ten minute walk to Asilomar beach. The property has a huge yard so kids were happy to play outside on the play structure and throw balls around. Lots of room for dog to run around and Tamara even had pet toys for our dog! The kids, I and my husband were in heaven at this property. Tamara left games and toys, everything to keep kids entertained. The gentle deer would come and roam in the backyard! Tamara is the most wonderful and attentive host. Her response rate was always within minutes! Everything we needed, she made sure we had. She is professional, kind and wants your stay to be utmost enjoyable! I will definitely return here again and dealing with Tamara is a pleasure. I cannot wait to go back, best vacation stay ever!

Perfect

1935 home that the owner shares as a vacation house for others. What a great idea. The house was old and creaky and I loved it! A huge fenced in yard for my dog to be safe, laundry equipment and smores! So fun!

OK Stay

Not the best vacation we've had. We were not told the gas company was replacing the gas lines on the street which ran along the property lines. Had we known, we would have cancelled. Four days of noise and dust. Had to come and go through a back entrance. Owners provided for just any any need, but that meant little to no room for clothes, toiletries, or personal food. Very little kitchen counter space for meal prep. Comfortable bed, comfortable couch in the living room, plenty of towels. Toys for dogs, stuff for kids, huge yard.

Mountain families quick getaway to the coast!

This place worked perfect for our needs; the fenced yard was a great way to allow a little parental relaxation with two young kids - nice bike ride to the aquarium and walk to the beach. We'll be back!

Relaxing vacation with a great location

Tamara is an excellent host and provided tons of local recommendations and she thought of everything with the accommodations at the cottage. We spent our days beach and ended our nights with s’mores at the bone fire. The perfect getaway for our family. We’d stay here again.

Great Spot

The cottage was perfect for the two of us. It's been remodeled but still retains some original features. Close to everything!! Perfect location!! Easy quick walk to the beach. Cottage was well stocked with things like coffee and bathroom amenities. Great spaces in front and back porches and large fire pit area. I love sitting outside and my one and only mild criticism would landscaping. Could be cleaned up and prettified a bit. Definitely great place for couple of small family. Would recommend and rent again.

Wonderful location with easy access to everything. Multiple trails and beaches with doggie access, within 10 minutes walk. Really nice owner who provided everything you may need during your stay including information regarding trails and suggestions for eateries.

Perfect Getaway to Paradise

My husband and I fell in love with this cozy, ultra clean cottage the minute we walked in. There is nothing the hosts haven't thought of to make your stay comfortable and enjoyable. We were impressed by the history and cleanliness of this cottage. We were able to have a nice cozy fire and the doggies had a yard to enjoy while outside with us. It is quiet and tucked away yet very close (walking distance) to beaches and dog parks. We even were given complimentary guest passes to the Aquarium, a must see. The hosts gave us tons of information and recommendations for eating, which we followed and were happy we did. Our only regret is not staying longer!! We also had deer visiting us in the yard. The doggies had toys and a bed waiting for them to use. We will be making a trip back in the future and will be sure that we stay here! Thank you for all of the special touches and the thoughtfulness you put toward your guests. Sally and Mike Callison

Charming atmosphere

This home worked great for me and my wife with our dog. The fire pit was a hit for our son and a few teammates from MPC baseball who came by for a barbecue.

Home away from home. 😁

This was the best host/stay I have experienced hands down! I have stayed in several places prior to this one and I promise, you won’t be disappointed! My kids were entertained with the large yard and play equipment. Tamara had everything setup to be like a home away from home. She inquired ahead of time on my kids ages to set out age appropriate toys and things for my dog to be comfortable. It is a place we intend on returning to every time we visit this area. We did not want to leave and return home.

Cozy cabin in great location, perfect set up for dogs

We’ll definitely be back! Great little cabin with everything you need, plus extras (bathroom and kitchen basics, coffee, firewood for the fireplace, laundry, etc.) The fully fenced backyard was a dream for the dog, and would be fun for kids too! Tamara was a wonderful host, and available for questions if they came up. We’ve stayed at vacation rentals all over (the US + Europe) and this is hands down one of our favorites. Thank you!

Exceeded my expectations

Before I even began my trip, Tamirra was providing information about the cottage and surrounding area so I felt quite comfortable heading up. The attention to detail deserves recognition and appreciation.. super clean, warm and cozy bed linens, bathroom amenities like a drug store and cute toys / treats ready for my pups! Everything was as described in the profile which isn’t often the case. I’m looking forward to another visit and will definitely stay longer since it truly was a “ home away from home”!! Thank you 🙏
