My family of 5 stayed (3 teen/tweens) at the Cozy Cottage for 4 days and would definitely recommend to those seeking more room than a hotel room provides along with a great location in Carmel. Older home but clean and worth the location.
Sleeping: King bedroom with small but private bath. Minimal furnishings (1 nightstand/lamp/luggage rack and overhead light);
Second bedroom has a Queen bed and twin trundle bed and a small, clean bath in the hall. Full size washer/dryer are located in one of two large closets in the queen bedroom. Minimal furnishings (1 nightstand/lamp with an overhead light).
Kitchen: spacious and well-lit with full size refrigerator, dual oven/microwave; 4 burner gas stove, coffee maker, 4-slot toaster, dishwasher and breakfast table for 6. Gas grill in backyard courtyard (accessible thru Queen bedroom or side of house). Basic cooking was very easy. Safeway grocery store approx. 1 -1.5 miles away. High-chair also in closet.
Living Room: seating for 5 (1 sofa and 2 arm chairs) with flat-screen tv. Additional space in living room for golf club storage. Electric f/p helps heat room if needed.
Location is amazing: 3-4 blocks from the beach, 1 block from Ocean Avenue shops; exterior hose for washing away sand, and highly sough-after single car driveway.
No Air Conditioning but with new windows and screens that open/lock easily - we never needed it. In fact, we used the heat in July.
Smoke detectors and Carbon monoxide detectors.
Cozy, clean and fabulous location!
