Walk to Beach, Downtown! Spa & Private Deck
Escape to "The Retreat," a beautifully updated historic beach cottage in the heart of Pacific Grove, offering an AMAZING LOCATION that puts you steps from everything! Originally built in 1908 within the charming Pacific Grove Retreat, this home blends rich history with every modern convenience for a cozy, comfortable, and unforgettable getaway. Pacific Grove STR #0084.
Step inside to an inviting open floor plan where the living room seamlessly flows into the fully stocked kitchen. Relax by the huge gas fireplace, enjoy your favorite shows on the Smart Samsung TV with streaming apps, and take in the abundant natural light from the soaring ceilings and skylights. The dining room opens directly to a private deck, creating an incredible indoor-outdoor living experience. Here, you'll find an outdoor living room with another huge gas fireplace, an outdoor eating area, BBQ, and for ultimate relaxation, a hot tub and outdoor shower.
Upstairs, a spacious living room loft provides additional comfortable seating, another Smart Samsung TV, and a third gas fireplace. Need to catch up on some work? An adjustable standing desk is also available.
The home features two comfortable bedrooms on the first floor, each with a queen bed. The master bathroom offers a bathtub shower, while the second bathroom boasts a luxurious steam shower.
You'll rent directly from the owner, ensuring personalized communication with me and my local house manager. I love sharing my home with guests eager to experience all that Pacific Grove has to offer.
You simply can't beat this location! Everything you desire is within easy reach: stroll to downtown for charming restaurants and shops, or head to Lovers Point Beach for sun and sea. The Pacific Grove Golf Course is nearby, and the world-renowned Monterey Bay Aquarium and historic Cannery Row are just a mile away on the scenic beach trail. Day trips to Carmel for shopping, Pebble Beach for golfing, or Big Sur for breathtaking hikes are all easy drives. Or, simply stay in and unwind in the hot tub, read a book by a cozy fire, and truly relax.

Perfect location, adorable home, and for those who enjoy cooking it is beyond well appointed. We loved being able to walk everywhere from the beach to downtown Pacific Grove and even to Cannery Row in Monterey. A
We had a great stay! It’s an excellent property with lots of features, on a quiet street in a friendly neighborhood, and just a short walk to the shops or the water. The hosts were communicative, easy to reach, and lovely. I look forward to returning for another stay!
The host was very welcoming and texted us prior to check on our arrival time. Very quick to answer a quick question about the backyard lights. Very clean and comfortable with fantastic amenities and coffee making supplies. We loved the upstairs loft. It’s a spectacular location with everything you would ever want right out the front door. Will be back!
The home was beautiful and in a great historic quiet neighborhood close to walk to the beach and nearby shops and restaurants. Home was clean, well stocked if you wanted to cook, and we also appreciated having coffee beans, pods, and cream and sugar. We slept in comfortable beds with greatest Temperpedic pillows in the world. Host and home manager were responsive. We really enjoyed our retreat and look forward to returning.
Our first stay in this house was 13 years ago, when we visited PG for a month. Everything about the house is terrific. Very cozy and fully equipped. The back porch and fireplace make every evening an event. The location, though, can not be beat if you like to park your car and walk to everything PG and Monterey have to offer. Looking forward to our next visit.
Margaret's property was exactly as described. Super clean, had great amenities and so close to everything you want to walk to in Pacific Grove. We parked the car and never got back into it for a couple of days. Highly recommend.
Lovely house - so comfortable and bright! Great location and proximity to beach and downtown but quiet street. Hosts were so lovely, welcoming and helpful!
The house was a great home base to explore Monterey/Carmel with the family (kids 7 and 4). Easy walk to the beach and restaurants. Hot tub and steam shower were a big hit!
We love this house and have stayed twice. It’s remodeled nicely, walking distance to the beach and downtown shopping. Kitchen is large and fully stocked. We also enjoy the back patio grill, fireplace & jacuzzi. We will definitely stay here again!
Enjoyed having everything so close to the main street. Coffee shop's down the street and going for a bike ride first thing in the morning was just peaceful.
Margaret's property is clean & comfortable and well maintained by Frank her property Manager. The location is wonderful - close to beach, walking trails, awesome dining & lovely shops in PG. Very close to both Monterey & Carmel-by-the-Sea.
