Carmel River Inn & Cottages

Carmel River Inn & Cottages

10/10 Excellent
"This property is located near the shopping center. You have your own shack with a kitchen, living room, room and bedroom. Beds were comfortable and everyone was pretty quiet just depending on the guest we had next-door. I wish we would’ve got one of the sharks that did not have a door to the neighbors because you could hear talking and tv through walls. Inn has nice trail that goes around grounds and is located right off the Carmel River (creek)."
