My wife and I stayed at Dan's place in Pacific Grove over the 2017-2018 New Year. It's a large home with beautiful, very private outdoor spaces and an upstairs great room with a terrific view. If you enjoy cooking, there's a well-stocked (with cookware and equipment) kitchen and a gourmet oven. Dan phoned day-of to ensure we had checked in and everything was as it should be. There's also a terrific, detailed guide to the home so nothing will go unanswered. The location is a two minute drive from several grocery stores and a five minute drive from the heart of Monterey. We would definitely stay here again!
