Amazing forest views in Carmel Woods
A quirky and unique space at the top of Carmel Woods. With an amazing view of Del Monte forest. I especially enjoyed the hummingbirds feeding.

Wild weather week in Carmel!
Second time at Carmel woods location. Enjoyable. Weather was challenging with wind and rain. I was there as a volunteer for the Pebble Beach AT&T. Electricity went off in the area for at least 24 hours - tournament was called.

Solid but not spectacular
Overall, I thought the place was fine. It is a great location and very safe. It was a little close to the freeway for my taste and you could hear cars but that is fine. They provided heaters but without the heaters it does get very cold. So make sure to turn those on. Otherwise, I would give it a solid B+

Carmel Woods was just as described. Great location in the woods. We saw a bobcat meander right beneath our window! Short distance to Carmel by the Sea, Monterey, and Pacific Grove.

Lovely hideaway in the woods
VRBO - easy to find this fabulous property. Had 3 different seating areas including outside on a deck with views of the wood. Small kitchen had everything you could possibly want. Small bathroom but fabulous shower. Amazing comfy bed . Great directions and welcome instructions from the owner.

Quaint
Unfortunately my stay was not ideal. A dog that barked quite a bit. I’m a light sleeper so it did affect my stay. This unit is below the main home so there was lots of noise coming from the ceiling. Creaking floorboards and plenty of steps from the dog walkers walking in/out. It’s spacious but was really not very clean. Lots of cobwebs and spiders. Bathroom sink that didn’t drain properly. On a positive note the bed was super comfy. And the sheets were freshly laundered.

Charming Carmel Experience
We had a great visit to this charming Carmel home. The home is at the edge of a forest with a spectacular view from a private deck. The hosts were kind and helpful. Being dog friendly was great! We enjoyed our stay.

Perfect Little Getaway
Wonderful, quiet, central location, and perfect spot for a quick getaway. It’s hard to find a good spot to rent for a couple with dogs. This relaxing studio was more than we expected with an entry and kitchenette separate from the bedroom with fireplace and separate from a dressing room next to the bathroom. The dogs loved all the smells and visited Charlie at his dog door. The owners are very easy going and very excited to visit the dogs—or I mean saying hi to the dogs when they went to visit them. Such an easy stay with the fenced yard and dog door! The dogs just used the dog door and enjoyed the yard. We will definitely stay here again.

Dog friendly stay in great location
The property was clean and included all that we needed. It felt very dog friendly, and our brief interaction with the host was pleasant. The location was convenient, in a nice residential neighborhood close to Carmel. The bed was comfortable, and altho the space felt a bit cramped, it was certainly good value for the price, and met our needs.

Wonderful, relaxing stay in the forest canopy!
This suite was perfect for recuperating and relaxing after 3 days of hiking in a big sur area. Susanne and Reg were perfectly accommodating and very hospitable. The suite feels like you are perched in the forest canopy because of the beautiful view that it offers. It was wonderful to have the kitchenette and fireplace. We made great use of both! Thanks for a lovely stay

Relaxing and Comfortable
I totally enjoyed my stay in the studio. The hosts were wonderful and they loved my Queensland Heeler, Sheila! She gave them both kisses, which is unusual for her. Their dog Charlie is a polite gentleman! The deck is huge and the yard is safe for dogs. The bed is the most comfortable bed I have ever slept in. 5 stars!

Great little studio!
This place was better than was advertised, in our opinion. This was perfect for the stay. Charlie is a very sweet dog and came to visit a few times with our pups. Rog was there and we had a great conversation. There were no issues, except the WiFi did not get great service, and neither did our cell phones, but we were on vacation so who cares! :) Oh, and the bed!!!!! The memory foam bed was hard to get out of daily! If we come back up here, which we typically do each year, we would definitely like to stay here again!

Thank you Susanne and Reg for a wonderful stay! It was peaceful, quaint and yet so near to the places we wanted to explore while we were in Carmel, Monterey and Big Sur! We would definitely come again if we're back in the area! Thanks so much for the perfect couples' retreat space!
