We enjoyed our stay very much - cottage was clean and comfortable! We especially loved that the bunk room could accommodate our kids in one room and the backyard area.

We have been here a few times and it is now our go-to spot when we visit our friends in the area. Our dogs love the space, we had our Grand children there this visit and they loved the back and the bunk beds! Perfect location right off of Hwy 1 yet very peaceful and quiet. We will be back!

We enjoyed our stay at the Cypress cottage. It is about 5 minutes from the downtown area. And also about 5-10 minutes from Carmel valley that has a Safeway and Lucky. Susan was super responsive whenever I texted her with questions. Would recommend!
