Stunning Ranch Home with Ocean Views

Stunning Ranch Home with Ocean Views

10/10 Excellent
"The house was more than we could have hoped for, a fabulous home base for our Carmel/Monterey/Big Sur adventures. We had an older family member with some mobility issues and the one-floor living made everything so easy. Even with mobility issues they were able to join the rest of us and enjoy the decks and gorgeous views since the railings were so well placed. It was so relaxing to watch the horses and cattle as they grazed, with the ocean in the background, we could have spent hours out there. We also loved the easy walk/drive to Point Lobos State Park and were happy to find that some of the paths there are ADA compliant and wheelchairs are available so we were all able to enjoy the Nature Reserve. All of that combined with easy access to super markets, shops and restaurants made it a standout vacation for us."
