"Loved our stay at this darling renovated cottage. Nearly everything is new and clean while appointed with tasteful personal details. The house is so close to town but is surprisingly quiet and a quick walk to hiking trails. We love the multiple conversation areas throughout the property - inside and out. And as foodies we really appreciated the excellent quality cookware and knife set" S.T. May 2025

We couldnât have asked for a better location. We were an easy walk to everywhere and it was such a treat to be able to do that. This is one of those rare occasions where reality was even better than the pictures. The house is beautifully decorated and has everything you need for an extended stay; all of it high quality and clean clean clean. Melissa gave us all the directions we needed to check in and check out and responded to any questions quickly. We highly recommend Storybook Cottage.
My extended family and I have been vacationing in Carmel-By-the-Sea for decades. I have been hosting guests at my vacation rental properties in Michigan for almost two decades. I love being a virtual concierge to help you have a phenomenal vacation
I absolutely love this location with its easy walk to Ocean Ave or the Carmel Plaza or right into the woodsy trails of the Mission trails nearby. Just 10minutes and you are walking along Scenic Drive (but donât have to deal with crowds when you are ready to retreat home!)
The Story Book cottage captured our attention for its easy indoor-outdoor living, its many gathering spaces, but also its ability to find privacy. Lovely ground floor living makes it easy for all generations to enjoy!
