Period touches abound, from the brass Queen bed downstairs to the white clawfoot tub on the upper level. There is a full bath with a tub/shower on the ground floor, and a second full bath upstairs along with two twin beds and an office nook. Street parking only. Pacific Grove Transient Use License #410.

Perfect accommodation

Sweet Pea was perfect for our needs. We could walk to the bay and to town. Our son was golfing at Pebble Beach, which was just a short drive away. The beds were comfortable. The house was clean and we lived sitting in the sun on the porch in the late afternoon. It was a great stay.

Great location, cute small place. Needs new mattress in the primary bedroom. Floors are uneven, not a tripping hazard but if you have balance issues this might not be the one for you.

Location was fantastic with view of ocean. Excellent walking trails all over and proximity to the Wharf area was convenient. Pacific Grove area had many walkable restaurants and shops. Parking was a challenge on one way street but we managed. Neighbors were very friendly and chatty .

Perfect Get Away Home

Property was in a great location, nice little porch in front along with patio in back. Easy check in and out, parking can be tricky but usually can find one around the block and walk over. Would stay here again when we come back!

Cozy Stay with Sisters

This was a second time staying at Sweet Pea Cottage and we loved it! The cottage is so cute and in the perfect location. We walked to the coast and to the shops and restaurants. We are 3 sisters and were visiting relatives in the area. There was plenty of space for us, the beds were comfortable, and the kitchen met our needs. We loved sitting by the fireplace in the morning and at night, catching up with each other. We are looking forward to our stay next year.

Great Location

We loved the location of this home because we were close to the harbor in one direction and close to lots of great restaurants and shops in the other direction. If you are traveling by car be aware that there is only street parking available.
