Vacation rentals with a fire pit in Monterey County

Great house. A little far from Monterey (about 42 minutes) but we had a great time none the less. Big home, room for lots of people, extra bedding and blankets and the kids loved the outside area. The fire pit was relaxing and enjoyable and having the washer and dryer was nice. Charles was very responsive and we appreciated the hospitality.

Inc was a wonderful host. Everything went well and there was not a laundry list of post stay procedures. The home was cozy and a great place for a small family to stay on a vacation.

things were generally very good. but some of the areas weren't the cleanest. additionally some things weren't ready for our arrival. for example the gas for the patio fireplace and bbq were essentially empty. I had to buy propane for the bbq which cost me approximately $35 and the time to do it as we discovered it when we went to use the grill. Lastly, a couple house rules are a bit too restrictive. There's a rule that the hot tub, which is very small and only fits 2 adults if you're lucky, can only be set to 102 degrees. The issues is at that temperature it drops to a tepid tub very quickly because it so small. 104 degrees would be nice. The second rule is no smoking with 25ft of the house. given the smaller yards, (front and back), you basically have to stand out on the sidewalk or street. It would be more equitable if there was a designated space in the backyard that could accommodate such an activity given the cost oer night. Otherwise things went well. thanks rob

The place is generally as described in the listing and Bobby was very responsive to the few minor hiccups we had. The house is perfectly stocked with everything one needs and the kitchen cooking utensils are in good shape and work well as of the writing of this review. The house is one of the cleanest we’ve stayed in and the hot tub was clean and worked well too. The fire pit and grill had propane and were fun to use. I should note that there is a downstairs unit and while we never heard the guests down there, we did hear their dog on occasion. The unit is about a 25min walk from downtown Carmel which can be a bit rough on the way back due to the steep hill but very doable for most. It’s a great place to stay with a larger group to experience everything Carmel has to offer.

This was a beautiful, peaceful place for us to stay for about a week along with our son and daughter-in-law. The house is delightfully unique, and was comfortable for the four of us. The weather was colder than we had expected and there is no central heating, but there were plenty of space heaters and extra blankets to keep us comfortable. We spent some time in Monterey (about a 30 minute drive), some time in Pinnacles (1 hour - 1.5 hour drive depending on where in Pinnacles) and some time just at the property and surrounding area. The views of the vineyard and hills were stunning, and the road was great for walking.

Amazing property! Thoughtful things to do at the home. Close to a lot. Clean, comfortable, homey. Christian was a great host. Would highly recommend!

This was a nice house, with three comfortable bedrooms and an updated bathroom. There’s not much in the neighborhood to walk to, but the house is an easy drive to the beach, restaurants, and Monterey. The back yard is great if you have a dog, and even the front area is secured with a fence. Check-in and out were efficient and the hosts are communicative. Overall, an nice, spacious and affordable place to stay near Monterey.

Thank you again for a great week!

Hi there. I made this booking for my boss. She said Angel's place was 10/10 :)

Amazing apartment! Just a quick drive to downtown Monterey! The kitchen was very well stocked. We loved the projector and Pac-man machine! Very nice touches!

What an incredible place! Krista was very helpful and quick to respond. The place was so comfortable and restful! We will be back!

We had a wonderful stay at Jane’s beautiful oceanfront home! The views from the patio, and living room were absolutely stunning—we even spotted seal pups right from the patio. The location is perfect: easy walking distance to the aquarium, Cannery Row, the beach, and a scenic walking/bike path. The home was spotless and thoughtfully stocked with everything we needed—laundry soap, extra towels, high-quality bedding, and comfortable, homey furniture. Jane made the check-in process seamless with clear instructions and even left us a list of local recommendations and binoculars to enjoy the views. Although Jane lives upstairs, the unit feels very private. She was responsive and welcoming, while giving us plenty of space. This was one of the most comfortable and well-prepared rentals we’ve stayed in. Highly recommend!

The pictures you see are exactly what you get! It was nice being able to walk to the beach after breakfast and enjoy bonfires after dinner! The place has a full kitchen and was clean. We visited Carmel by the Sea and Monterey. We definitely enjoyed our time. 🙂

Cozy cottage indeed. We enjoyed our stay at Saddle Mountain. Facility was nice and felt like an upscale camping experience. Hosts were kind and welcoming.

Perfect place

The cabin was so pretty. They even have their own trail which was awesome. The sauna was a cool experience. Overall I would 100% go back!

Cute glamping site with plenty of things to do! We stayed in the cabin with our family of 5 plus our dog. It was clean, had everything that we needed, and was close enough to town and the wineries.

this was a unique place to stay while visiting and hiking around big sur. his house is about 5 miles up a narrow dirt road that is very steep and scenic (about 20 minutes of driving once you turn off of hwy 1). he coordinates with you during arrival so that you can follow him during the last couple of miles. we had a two wheel drive SUV and it is a miracle that we made it up the steeper sections. he was accommodating with our arrival as we were arriving later at night (about 10:30 pm) the cabin is above the clouds. it is very remote and you feel like a zen monk gazing down upon the world. if you are seeking a stay that offers isolation and contemplation then this may be for you. there were three grown men in our party and there was plenty of room for us to sleep. the cabin is running on solar panels/renewable energy. so the power and wifi were intermittent during our stay. the kitchen was clean and stocked with everything we needed to cook basic stuff. he's a great host!

If you've read the accurate listing thoroughly, understand the location and are delving into the reviews just to confirm things... book away. The place is well stocked and I had zero complaints about the kitchen supplies (no dishwasher). The less than one hour drive to Pinnacles is lovely (at least in Spring) and maybe even a bonus if you love driving winding country roads. Mitch was incredibly responsive, kind and was around to address anything we needed (we didn't need a thing though). This place is special and unique... like time traveling.... but with wifi.

My family of 5 had a wonderful time this past week for spring break! Our three boys (ages 9, 5, and 3) loved sleeping in the loft. They also enjoyed playing ping pong by the pool, and the playground. This was a comfy, cozy getaway, and perfect 'home base' as we explored nearby Big Sur and Monterey. We hope to return! Thank you!

had a fun stay for my mom's 52nd birthday weekend , close enough to Carmel but far enough that it felt relaxing and disconnected from the stress of tourists
