Oak Treehouse Retreat

Oak Treehouse Retreat

8/10 Good
"A beautiful and quiet, albeit remote location. The outdoor space for our dog was perfect. We enjoyed being in the home but it is not for those who would be doing a great deal of in and out. It takes 20 mins, on very windy roads, to get to the nearest town. We appreciated the kuerig and provided pods. Other than salt and pepper there were no other culinary basics or laundry detergent. Lovely hot tub, firepit and gas stove inside. The beds were comfortable with plenty of pillows."

Gated Carmel Valley Retreat with 20 Acres, Pool & Hot Tub

10/10 Excellent
"Amazing property with tons of space for my friends and pups to hang out for the week! The rooms were spotless and there was more than enough space for 5 adults and two dogs. We spent most of our time at the pool or in the living room doing crafts. The kitchen had everything we needed for food preparation, so we could cook all of our meals. The only slight setback was the windy road on the drive in. We opted to stay on property the whole time to avoid motion sickness! "
