    Two Bedroom Suite Spectacular Views 30 Day Rental

    Near the top of the hill in Calera Canyon, the sweeping panoramic views of golden live-oak studded hillsides will lull you into a tranquil sense of ease, fulfillment and well-being. Expansive redwood deck, comfortable living room with floor length canyon views. The bedrooms are 18' x 24' with spacious double closets. Soak up the sunniest part of the Monterey Peninsula while you gaze across John Steinbeck's fabled Pastures of Heaven. You have a private entrance and private use of the entire separate lower level of home.

    Constant sunshine, pastoral ambiance, fascinating wildlife, on a three acre nature-scaped mountainside parcel and forever views that inspire and rejuvenate the soul. There is a large fridge with filtered water and ice, sink, microwave, tea/coffee and self-serve oatmeal/cereal bars but no full kitchen or stove/oven cooking facilities.

    Hosts live in the upstairs unit on the property. Both hosts work in downtown Monterey.

    Carmel Valley is the sunniest part of the Monterey Peninsula and the perfect climate. It has California's best weather with temperatures in the 60°s F to low 70°s nearly all year. Deer, wild turkeys, quail, raccoons and the occasional shy bobcat are all local citizens. Just far enough from town that skies are bright, twinkling and sometimes meteor streaked.

    Ample driveway parking but be cautious turning around. Twelve miles from Monterey Airport, just off Corral de Tierra Rd. Within 20 - 30 minutes of downtown Monterey, Pebble Beach, Carmel or Pacific Grove. Carmel Valley, Laguna Seca 10-15 minutes. The start of Big Sur is a little over 30 minutes.

    Off the beaten path
    We stayed here for easier access to get to the raceway; however, it was not as close as it seemed due to the canyon roads that this location requires you to drive in order to reach the destination. The accommodation itself is clean and welcoming, just be careful when entering the side door at night as there are many unexpected steps and I almost face planted (my fault for not using a light). The two-car parking limit was undisclosed in the description, but it became too late to cancel when I found out. Also, undisclosed is the no smoking on the property rule. Overall, 4/5. just be aware of the items mentioned above and it will be just fine.

    It had everything that the ad had promised. Wish we could have spend more of the day on the lovely terrace. Great little place to get away.

    Amazing deck, perfect for a weekend stay
    The property is just as described. The 2 bedrooms are of good sizes. Very clean. The main attraction is definitely the deck which we enjoyed morning, early evening and late at night for star gazing.

    Amazing property tucked up in the hills - a little difficult to get to because of the terrain/location, but Dutch and Carolyn provided very clear instructions. Awesome views, very quiet, incredibly clean and home-y. Would definitely stay here again.

    What a great house in a gorgeous location! The house is nestled at the top of rolling hills overlooking a beautiful valley. Views are absolutely stunning, both evening and morning! The house is perfect for a family or group looking to enjoy Carmel, Big Sur, etc, who would also like to see the hills and valleys surrounding the coast. The house is clean and well appointed; we did not lack for anything. Hosts are very communicative and hospitable. Definitely recommend!
