Adorable cottage in the woods

We got a giant room with high ceiling! A breakfast table for 4, a fridge and a microwave oven! The room is clean, the beds are super comfortable with extra blankets in the closely. The bathroom is small, with stacks of towels. The sink is tiny and is outside of the bathroom but the counter space is big and the mirror is large. Staff is friendly and parking is easy. We left a souvenir in our room and they are happy to ship it to our home for us. The hotel is in a woodsy area and we sat outside for our morning coffee. The hotel is cute with lots of amenities. We are very happy to have found this gem. ❤️

Convenient Location

We stayed here to visit the Monterey Bay Aquarium and friends in Pebble Beach. The location is great—close to both. The hotel has lots of space and a nice picnic area, and you can walk around outside. It feels a bit old, but it's a good spot if you want a lot of room and a convenient location.

This older, but very well maintained property was quiet, close to town, ocean and many points of interest. The rooms were large and the beds very comfortable. It adjoins the Monarch Butterfly Sanctuary which is well worth a visit when they are present, but great for a walk the rest of the year. It was pet friendly. We enjoyed our stay here and will be back to try the pool and spa which we did not have time for this stay.

Seclude and peaceful. Can hear the waves and gulls from the shore. Butterfly sanctuary is beautiful. No butterflies, but it was fawning season, so we got see a family of deer. Walls are a little thin, so you might hear the neighbors. The hot tub was perfect after a long day.

Nice place

They were very welcoming. It felt a bit like staying at a grandmother's house in terms of decor, carpeting, etc. The rooms were clean and fairly quiet, and the beds were comfortable. Parking was extremely difficult which would make this a hard place to stay if you brought more than one car. Very walkable to all the cute places in Pacific grove, and not too far of a walk to the coast.
