About this property

A Tiny House - Pacific Grove House - Small is Beautiful

  • Hankering to know what "the tiny house" movement is all about? Here’s your chance: this petite retreat has everything you need for a great vacation in “America’s last hometown.”
    The location is ideal: Pacific Grove’s charming downtown is just a short stroll away: cafes, restaurants, bistros, galleries, boutiques, antique shops, and a cinema.
    Lover’s Point and the Beach House Restaurant are only a few blocks in the other direction, as is the Coastal recreational trail (Cannery Row and the Monterey Aquarium are just over a mile away).
    This cheery, compact cottage has one bedroom and a bath with a shower. There’s a small patio out back with a dining table, four chairs, a bench and a barbecue.

Very pleasant stay at this tiny house.Ideal location in Pacific Grove for walking to the shore, shops, restaurants and the Grove Market grocery store.Very quiet street. Tiny house nicely appointed with comfortable sitting area, well-equipped kitchen and nice bedroom. The bathroom is a bit small but certainly functional. We would definitely stay here again.

The Tiny house is in a sweet location - 5 minutes walk from Pacific Grove's central commercial area on Lighthouse Avenue, and 5 minutes walk the other way to Lover's Point. Wow! Passionfish, Toasties, Sergeant Pepper's Ice Cream, Winston's, The Red House, Bookworks... This was the perfect get-away spot for my wife and me. Hoping to return soon. Thank you!

A Tiny House in Pacific Grove served us well, though I had to laugh at the kitchen cabinets. They were hung higher than usual. My 5'4" self could barely get things on the second shelf never mind the top! Surely not a reason to avoid this cozy home. The scent of jasmine perfuming the air was wonderful on the back fence. The outdoor grill was clean and ready for our use and was appreciated. If I return to Pacific Grove, I would definitely consider booking here again.

A Tiny House

A Tiny House was a perfect fit for the two of us. Location is great for easy access to coastal boardwalks/trails and to downtown for dining and shopping. We appreciated the quite neighborhood. Driveway was small for our mid-size SUV so we only used it overnights. We noticed essential kitchen supplies missing (aluminum foil, parchment paper, plastic wrap and a variety of zip storage bags). We notified Monterey Rentals (Kyle) and supplies were delivered immediately. We also noticed the bathroom water supply has a slight sulfur odor when first used which dissipates after water lines run for a moment, but hey, the house was built in 1905 so we understand and do not find this an issue. We have stayed in numerous Monterey Rentals properties over the past 6 years and are always 5 stars pleased. We've already booked another week long stay at A Tiny House! We are at Gingerbread House with larger group in September and Blue Horizons in October! Can't wait.

Wonderful, perfectly located home

Home is perfectly located, quiet area but very short walk to PG downtown and Lovers Point beach and shoreline trail. While called tiny, it is actually spacious and has everything you may need (including washer and dryer). It was clean, gets a lot of light and airs out nicely in the evening if you're there during hot days. Would definitely recommend and stay again.

Stellar stay in Pacific Grove

The Tiny House perfectly suited our needs: cozy, very clean, and fabulous proximity to the downtown and the water. The amenities were many - dishwasher, washer/dryer, nice oven and spacious fridge. A perfect getaway for two people. We even entertained our daughter and partner for dinner! We will definitely book this place the next time we come to Pacific Grove.

A Tiny House is Big Enough

Great location, close to ocean and also close to historic downtown. House was as advertised and plenty large enough for the two of us. No issues whatsoever.

Sweet cottage in perfect location.

The Tiny House is more like a cottage or bungalow. Spacious for two people. Nice having a washer and dryer. And a nice full kitchen. Location is amazing, a few blocks from Lovers Point and trail along the bluffs and an easy walk into Monterey. Lots of restaurants very near by. Owner Kyle was super responsive to a couple questions we had. Would definitely recommend and would stay here again.

Simple and Quaint

This is the third time we have stayed at A Tiny House. We wondered if it felt small on the inside the first time we stayed from the exterior pictures, but it feels like a normal-sized one bedroom house. Nothing fancy, but clean and comfortable. A quick walk to Lover's Point and the walk along Ocean View. We'll be back!

Tiny House in Pacific Grove

This little historic house is in a wonderful location and served our needs well. The carpet needs a little love, or removed and new flooring put down, instead. Just a thought. Loved having a W/D, too!

A big tiny house!

Even though it’s tiny, it has plenty of room for two people with a good sized bedroom, kitchen, living room, and bathroom. The location is excellent in a very quiet neighborhood where a car passes by about once every 10 minutes. Yet, it’s a short 5-10 minute walk to the shops of Pacific Grove. It’s also a similar short walk to the beach in the other direction. It took about 25 minutes to do the VERY SCENIC walk to the Monterey Bay Aquarium along the ocean/bay. It’s a short drive to Carmel and another short drive beyond to Big Sur. Check-in and communication worked well. Yes, we’ll be back!

Adorable and Perfect!

This tiny house is the perfect getaway to Pacific Grove! It is in a quiet neighborhood, within easy walking distance of the beach, aquarium, shops and bakeries. The check in process is seamless. Kyle and the team are so helpful and kind. They make sure that you have everything you could need or anticipate. The bed is very comfortable, and the kitchen is well-stocked. This tiny home is an historic part of Monterey's past, and photos throughout the house tell the story. There is a strong connection to the land, the ocean and the people who have lived in this area. You will feel like a local when you stay here.

Family Vacation for Small Family

My wife, daughter (21 months), and I enjoyed a 3 day stay at this property. It’s perfect for walking to Lovers Point and the Aquarium. The property was great, plenty of living room space, kitchen was stocked with the cooking essentials, and the bedroom was great for us 3. Our daughter slept in the bed with us. A pack and play or portable crib would fit in the living room but would likely be tight in the bedroom. There is a small park about a 3 minute walk from the house. We would definitely stay here again as a couple or as a family of 3 (maybe 4, if one child sleeps in the living room).

Almost perfect!

Fantastic location--not really even that tiny--clean and comfy and great alternative to a hotel room. Only real issue was the the smell of cigarette smoke. It wasn't overwhelming--but you definitely noticed it each time we walked in. Also--would be great to have a small desk and chair--someplace to sit and work on your laptop. And a mat to wipe your feet on when you come in would be helpful. But those are just nitpicks. If they can mitigate the smoke smell, we would definitely stay there again.

Bigger than you might think

Although its called A Tiny House, and by a lot of standards it IS tiny, we found there was more than enough room for two of us with decent sized living, kitchen and sleeping areas. Even the parking , described as 'small car only', was big enough for our rented 7-seater Chrysler Voyager people carrier. Anything wider than that probably wouldn't get in but there is plenty of on-street parking outside, so there are no parking issues to worry about at all. The house is well-equipped, very clean and tidy and in a quiet neighbourhood only a couple of minutes walk from Lover's Point. We enjoyed staying here and would do so again, so if you are a couple or travelling solo this property is all you need and we highly recommend it.
