Dan's house in Pacific Grove is unique, fascinating, and well-located in a popular vacation spot between Monterey and Pebble Beach and quite close to Carmel. It was the perfect size for our group of 6 adults, and the photos he provides barely do justice to its many amenities and features.

The weather was cool and foggy during most of our stay, so we didn't get to take full advantage of the several outdoor areas adjacent to the house, although the spa hot tub felt wonderful after a day at the Monterey Aquarium.

The house is easy to reach from Highway 1, there's a Safeway and Trader Joe's nearby, and downtown Pacific Grove is delightful with several nice restaurants and far fewer tourists than Monterey.
