About this property

Carmel Cozy Cabin, close to everything Carmel!

"The Folly" is conveniently located to downtown Carmel, the Carmel Mission, the Mission Ranch restaurant and just a brief walk to the Mission Trails Park, or perhaps even a longer (but enjoyable!) walk around the coast via the Meadows Trail to Point Lobos State Park. Built in 1965 by the owners, it is a one-of-a-kind custom-built open beam post adobe cabin offering an open floor plan (split level). The upper level is the bedroom and bathroom, which overlooks the lower level of the living room, dining area and kitchen. Quiet, private, romantic, and outside a porch overlooks a large and secure private yard for the kids (or doggies) and is uniquely Carmel. Furnished with fine antiques, books, glassware, a fully furnished kitchen, and many other amenities, the Folly anticipates everything you might need for a special stay. Clean, quiet and cozy, the Folly offers maximum privacy and space, including secure off-street parking, a large lawn area and private patio. You won't find anything quite like it for a truly unique and conveniently located accommodation while visiting Carmel-by-the-Sea.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

The property is exactly as described and depicted. It is very charming and well maintained. The outside space is very nice with Adirondak chairs out front and a side patio with grills and a dining table. The shower has excellent pressure! The host is extremely helpful and accommodating. The location is walkable to the Basilica, Carmel-by-the-Sea and a few local beaches. I would definitely recommend booking this VRBO

We loved our stay at the Folly! Curt is an excellent host and quick to respond to messages. The cottage is charming and cozy with eclectic antique decor. Location is great for a short drive to the heart of Carmel or a walk through Mission Trail park. Thanks Curt for a great trip!

Wonderful, highly recommend! My husband and I, along with our daughter and small dog, stayed at Carmel Cozy Cottage for 2 nights. The cottage itself is so warm and unique in character, with an enclosed front yard for our dog. We walked to the Mission Trail Park, and took a short drive to the village of Carmel and the beautiful shoreline. Would definitely stay here again.

Sofa beds hurt, but overall it was fine

It’s an open plan, I slept in the sofa bed, no sofa bed is comfortable ever. It is “walking distance to everything” if you like to hike. Otherwise a beautiful setting and close to town

The Folly

Pros: Great location. Near the beach, Carmel Main Street, shopping, trails, Monterey and 17 mile drive. Owner is very responsive..excellent communications. Offered to assist us in any way Great fenced front yard, excellent if you have pets. We had dogs and they enjoyed the yard immensely Cons:Double bed…although very comfortable it is small. The air in the house was musty and stale when we arrived. We kept windows open and fan in living area going the entire time and it seemed to help air out the place We enjoyed our stay. Took evening strolls at Mission Trail Park every evening with the dogs and hiked a short trail at Garland Ranch Regional Park

Overall, nice stay at convenient location. The host, Curt, is nice, welcoming, and fast email response. He lives on premise. I deduced 1 star since there could be room for improvement. There was blanket and sheets folded, but had hair all over it. Bathroom lacked TP after the hanging roll was over. There was used shampoo bottles, samples from hotels. Frig had bottle of used wine. Hope the future has improvements.
