Summary: Our recent stay in this Carmel-by-the-Sea cabin was nothing short of enchanting. From the moment we arrived, we felt like we had stepped into a fairy tale. The cabin is beautifully decorated with an extraordinary attention to detail—from the charming molding around the doors and ceilings to the thoughtful touches throughout the interior. Every corner reflects care and creativity.Inside, the space was cozy, spotless, and equipped with everything we could possibly need. Outside, we were surrounded by a peaceful, forest-like setting that offered multiple seating areas to relax and soak in the beauty. The private hot tub was an unexpected treat—perfect for unwinding under the stars.What truly made our stay special, though, were the hosts. Diane and Chuck were incredibly friendly, helpful, and welcoming. It’s clear they take great pride in their property and genuinely care about their guests' experience. We thoroughly enjoyed our conversations with them and appreciated their warm hospitality.We’re already dreaming of coming back. Highly, highly recommended!

Summary: I stayed with my daughter during college visits/tours and we both enjoyed coming back to spend time in the incredible outdoor space. The hot tub was wonderful after all the walking we were doing, the lush greenery and birds helped to create a super peaceful experience. The space inside was much tighter than anticipated, especially with the sofa bed open. And, given that the bathroom and compact kitchen were essentially in the bedroom, it was a little challenging logistically. That said, if a single person or a couple were staying, it may be just right for them. There were a few spiders and some ants just in the front door, but given the location near a wooded area, that wasn't surprising. Overall, we enjoyed our stay but the size wasn't ideal for our circumstances.

Summary: Chuck and Diane are great hosts: there when you need them for help or trip ideas, and totally unobtrusive when you don't. Enjoyed meeting them.The location is fabulous for easily getting on Hwy 1, yet far enough away for peace and quiet. We got good leads from our hosts about local trails and were pleased by all our walks.The only minor observation was that because there are windows between the rooms (bedroom and living room, and bathroom and bedroom), if you are not a couple and have different night light preferences, you will need to adjust accordingly. Pleasant, quiet, and safe. Great little spot.

Summary: Moonglow was a perfect little paradise for my husband and I. The location is close to the airport and Carmel, but you wouldn't know that anything else was close once you drive up the driveway. It's secluded and serene. I wish the weather had been a little nicer to sit out on the deck. Diane and Check were great to visit with. We had a wonderful time, even sitting in the hot tub while it was raining. So many thoughtful touches- handwritten note, a bottle of wine, and chocolates.
