Summary: The home and surroundings were gorgeous and relaxing. I loved the fact that there were essentials in the home for you use and we gladly left replacements or additions. The views were outstanding and its location was so secluded and quaint, yet close to Carmel by the Sea for shopping and eating. Clearly the most beautiful place we've stayed at. Only negative was the bench on the knoll was filled with bird droppings - was going to call, yet figured the birds would just be back and do it all again.
