So charming, but bathrooms could do with updating, and a table for the coffee maker (maybe Keurig?) Love the location and ceiling, beds very comfy.

Located just 10-15mins away from downtown Carmel, it was a pleasant stay with my dog. We stayed here 2 nights and can’t really complain about anything. Reasonable pricing

It was a charming resort. Most are individual cottages--some with a common wall. Easy parking. Very private and quiet. Very convenient with fridge, microwave and table with two chairs. Good Internet (no cell service). I'd stay here again.

It's a very old property but in working order. Very clean which is great! It's a 15 minute walk from downtown but easier to just drive. Parking was a big plus. Slightly expensive for what you get.

Such a cute resort with individual cottages. We only stayed one night in a 2 bd with a pull out couch in the living room. The bathroom only had a tub/shower and toilet. There were sinks in the bedrooms. It was a long walk to the downtown area, and there are some hills.

We enjoyed the stay and would stay again but in a different room. The room walls were a bit thin as we could hear the neighbors conversations pretty clearly and we found the motion sensor bathroom lights/exhaust fan a bit obnoxious but overall it was a good room with comfy bedding and a good amount of amenities. You get a designated parking spot which was great. The fountain/pond area was nice at night but be aware there’s quite a few critters roaming around, they weren’t an issue but it’s worth noting.
