The house is located in a neighborhood in the hills only 15 minutes from Carmel and Monterey. The neighborhood is walkable, but you do need a car to get to coffee, grocery stores, etc. That being said, services are very close and accessible. After you spend time trying to find parking and braving the crowds in Carmel, you will really enjoy this peaceful abode.
The house was roomy, clean, and had abundant coffee which was very much appreciated by my family. We loved the putting green in the back as well. Thank you for a pleasant stay.
