Simple Pleasures - Pacific Grove House - America's "Last Hometown"
Fall asleep to the sound of the ocean and wake up to the calm, coastal rhythm of Pacific Grove—America’s “last hometown.” Just under a mile from the shore, this inviting monthly rental offers the simple luxury of space, comfort, and an easy connection to the Monterey Peninsula’s most beloved spots. Set on a generous corner lot and framed by an evergreen lawn and classic white picket fence, this home instantly feels like a true home base. Outdoor living is a highlight here, with multiple patios in front and back—perfect for morning coffee, afternoon lounging, or evening meals. Inside, a formal living room provides a quiet place to unwind, while the separate family room—furnished with a large sectional, a Lazy Boy recliner and big-screen TV—is ideal for movie nights and relaxed gatherings. The bright eat-in kitchen features a charming window table that seats four (plus bar seating for two). Patio dining is steps away through the back door, along with a propane grill. Three comfortable bedrooms and two full baths complete the layout. The primary suite offers a King bed and a private bath with a stall shower. Two additional guest rooms—one with a Queen bed and one with two Twins—share a hall bath with a tub/shower combination, making the home well suited for families, couples, or extended stays. From here, you can stroll into downtown Pacific Grove (just 1/2 mile away) or explore the trails and playground of nearby George Washington Park (one tenth of a mile away). Or head to the coast: Lover’s Point Cove is 0.8 miles away, and Asilomar Beach is just one mile. Fully furnished and thoughtfully equipped, this home makes longer stays effortless. Simply bring your suitcase and groceries, and settle in to enjoy the natural beauty, walkable charm and coastal splendor—the “simple pleasures”—that make Pacific Grove so special. NOTE: Smoke and carbon monoxide detectors are installed for your safety. Single car garage.

Lovely, quiet and comfortably appointed. We enjoyed the location, which was close to everything, but apart enough to feel restorative. Bonus points for outdoor space. Would definitely book again.
