Take it easy at this unique and tranquil getaway and off-grid space. Prepare to enjoy a scenic drive through the Carmel-Valley vineyards as you escape up to the mountain. You will be surrounded by mountains and trees in the heart of Los Padres National Forrest.
This space is great for a quiet weekend away from the city, from which you can explore Carmel Valley, Monterey and other local spots, or a peaceful artist retreat.
This is a guest studio up in Los Padres National Forest. The main home sits 30 ft above this space and may be occupied during your stay.
You have private access to the deck and spa that sit below the tree house which are for your exclusive use.
Guests have access to the deck and hot tub that sit below this home. There is NO POOL access or any areas above the this home.
-Make sure to bring all your needed groceries and beverages as you are a 15-20 minute drive from Carmel Valley Village and there are no grocery stores nearby. I provide basics like salt, pepper, olive oil, sugar, creamer and Keurig coffee pods.
-Guests will have no cell service on our property but you can connect to wifi to enable wifi calling and text messaging.
-WIFI: is good for text and emails. Do not expect to be able to download movies very fast or other data. Do not expect to work fully from your computers--expect to unwind and relax. If you need to work, I recommend driving down to the village and hooking up to faster wifi at a coffee shop. For now, satellite internet is the fasters option up here. I am waiting for Star Link to release its new satellite internet so that I can subscribe.
-I have ATT and can receive phone calls at the entrance of the home and on the other side of the pool by the shed.
-GPS will take you past our entrance because our location is not accurately marked. Please follow my picture check-in instructions.
-Our property is 8 miles (15-20 minutes) from Carmel Valley Village. The drive is on narrow, winding country roads which are dark at night. Plan to arrive during daylight if it is your first time at the property. Please do not plan to travel into town to restaurants or weddings for heavy drinking and expect to drive back to the home safely. Drive safely and use pull out spots to pull over if locals are driving faster behind you.
***ALTERNATIVE route: keep driving on Carmel Valley Rd toward Tassajara Rd and then onto Cachagua Rd.
-Bring your camera to snap some nature shots, or better yet, just be in the moment.
-My gardener will be on-sight to do grounds maintenance every Thursday, his name is Chevo!
-The main home up above may be occupied during your stay.
