This is the best location. We stayed for 2 weeks and enjoyed working remote from here. Once we settled in, we rarely used the car. We walked 15 min to town, where there's a weekly Farmer's Market on Mondays and a very nice laundromat. We also walked 15 min in the other direction to Asilomar State Beach, and from there about another 15 min along the beach to Spanish Bay Inn, where a bagpiper plays at sunset every day, rain or shine. We enjoyed dinner over sunsets and bagpipes a few times. :) For a longer, weekend trek, we walked an hour along the waterfront Recreation Trail to Monterey. This area is also a cycling paradise; I enjoyed a 20 mile loop through Pacific Grove, Carmel, and Monterey. Dave & Lee are super responsive to questions / issues. I'd love to stay here again.
