About this property

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.
3987 Lovers Point Whitewater Cottage, Bay View!
Sanctuary Vacation Rentals is proud to present "Lovers Point Whitewater Cottage"! This home sleeps up to 5 guests.
Exceptional home on a peaceful street located directly across from a park with direct whitewater crashing-waves ocean views. Peace, privacy and views are exceptional because all living spaces are elevated above street level.
Just steps from Lover’s Point beach, the Monterey Bay and the Recreation Trail, you'll find this lovely updated 1,599 sf beach house.
Situated just a few blocks from downtown Pacific Grove in one direction and under a mile from the world-renowned Monterey Bay Aquarium and historic Cannery Row in the other. Boutique shopping experiences, tasty restaurants and golf options aplenty await you - and don't forget all the special events like Monterey Car Week, the Carmel Bach Festival, Pebble Beach® Food and Wine and so many more.
Guests will enjoy the ocean view from the home and its proximity to Lover's Point Beach; for those traveling with their fur babies, Asilomar State Beach is a short but beautiful scenic drive away, not to mention Carmel Beach and many dining options, hiking trails and destinations in this famously dog-friendly part of the world.
Living Space This shingle-clad quintessential Beach House is well-equipped for your coastal vacation and is just a few houses away from the bay.
At the end of each day's activities, settle into the comfortable seating around the easy-to-use electric fireplace and TV with streaming service so you can binge your favorite shows (guests should bring the logins to their streaming subscriptions for programming). Lively large genuine Art Nouveau antique posters, gleaming wood floors and exposed ceiling beams are a sampling of the character of this cheerful home.
Kitchen and Dining The fully-equipped kitchen is ready to help you create both culinary masterpieces and casual meals.
Bedrooms and Bathrooms All three bedrooms are located upstairs near the full hall bathroom which has a tub and a separate shower. The lower level has a half bathroom near the living spaces. Bedroom #1 has a king bed. Bedroom #2 has a queen bed. Bedroom #3 has a full/double bed.
A washer and dryer set are conveniently located upstairs near the full bathroom and bedrooms.
Well-behaved dogs are welcome with pre-approval, an additional pet fee and a signed pet addendum.
Off-street parking for one small / low-profile vehicle is available in the garage. Street parking across from the home is generally available on a first come, first served basis but guests should take care not to park in front of neighbors' homes.

My husband and I stayed here with our two children (19 and 17) and our dog. We frequently stay in the PG area and this house is probably in the top three most lovely houses we’ve ever stayed in. It’s spacious, clean, and retains the charming mystery of an old house while still having modern amenities. The view to the ocean is fantastic but the trees across the street (for me) were the true star. There are binoculars for you to use to watch the deer each morning/evening and it’s lovely to wake up to the sound of the ocean. We will certainly stay here again! Our Honda CRV was able to fit in the garage (the door is low, as stated) but no issues there. The yard was secure for our dog, however we did push the BBQ in front of the side gate, just in case he got any ideas about trying to crawl under it, as it does not come all the way to the ground. Some strategic shades in the living area would be helpful, although we got used to it; the living area is above the street level, but the windows are large and visible from a distance. The kitchen had everything we needed except a cooling rack for cookies and a very flat spatula for flipping pancakes. :) Easy fixes, as the kitchen is large, open, bright, and welcoming. What a great trip and I recommend you book this home!
