Absorb the panoramic ocean and mountain views, the lulling sound of the pacific surf and gorgeous sunrise each morning. Enjoy the fruit off of the trees such as plums, apricots, meyer lemons, and other citrus. Site fees apply for all event bookings.

Access: 1/2MILE up a narrow dirt driveway. Only in case of rain, 4 wheel drive may be required to get up the mountain. We get about 30 days of rain between November - April. In otherwise dry conditions, 4 wheel drive is not necessary and most all vehicles are able to get up the hill without issue. We greet all of our guests on HWY 1 and escort them up to the property so there is never an issue of guests getting lost or stuck on the hill.

During rainstorms, cars very low to the ground do not do well on our driveway and would be advised against. We do not offer power for electric vehicle charging.

    I had a wonderful stay! The property was absolutely amazing — I instantly fell in love with the breathtaking views. Justin and Filiberto were outstanding hosts, incredibly welcoming and helpful throughout my stay. I’d definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a relaxing and memorable getaway.

    Our family really enjoyed our stay-- reading and cooking by the pool, relaxing in the jacuzzi, and taking in the spectacular ocean views. Unfortunately PCH was closed just north of the property, so we weren't able to go further up the coast easily. However, we were able to spend time at Plaskett Creek, hike on trails just south of the home, and visit Ragged Point and Cambria. Justin is a wonderful host, and we would definitely stay at the home again!

    This was possibly the most beautiful view I have ever seen - but some of the other things made the stay not so perfect. The pool was filthy- and when I emailed her about it she did say I could leave for a refund - but we had no where else booked so that would have been a little tough. There were other things as well, turned over pots in the yard, children’s toys in the yard, screens broke or missing all together, faucet in the kitchen very lose, grill didn’t work, just basic maintenance upkeep not done. Another thing which was totally not their fault, just annoying, they were working on the road - so while we were trying to relax you heard the beep beep beep of machinery. Beds were very comfortable which was a big plus!

    Once you get up the rather treacherous road, all your worries just melt away. This property really is a little piece of heaven on earth. We had some guests that needed help driving up the hill, but most of us made it on our own. Justin and Crystal were very helpful both before the trip and during. We turned this setting into a venue for our small wedding for an extra fee, and it was an amazing decision! Our guests proclaimed that it was the most beautiful wedding they had ever been to. Crystal’s whole family was there and helped us with the heavy lifting of arranging the farm tables and setting up the chairs. It was a seamless event that will be remembered forever. Thank you for sharing your lovely piece of heaven with us!

    The view! Oh my- what a view! It was constantly changing with the marine layer. We loved the pool and the hot tub and used the fireplace every night. We slept like babies on the cozy beds. Chrystal and Monica were very helpful. We had to turn on the generator once and it was easy. Cannot wait to return…

    Our family loved this property… our grown children and their little ones, all enjoyed the houses, ocean view, pool, hot tub, homemade lemonade, hiking up and down the driveway and enjoying the nearby state parks. The furniture was not comfortable and could update but overall very nice , and clean . Thank you for sharing your property with us!

    We booked this rental for my daughter’s wedding. The gorgeous views were exactly as we had hoped. You get the woodsy side of Big Sur from one angle, and wide-open ocean views from another. We were in awe of both. This is an absolutely beautiful backdrop for any special event. June is chilly and often overcast, with speckles of sunshine. Now, for the houses on the property, they are just okay. Seemed clean for the most part but the build, exterior/interior and furnishings do not match the price point of the rental cost. I would say they are mountain-cabin-like in look and feel. If the views/surroundings weren’t so spectacular, I would have been very disappointed. Not what I expected. My daughter and new husband stayed two nights (we lodged elsewhere). On the plus side, both thought the bed/bedding were very comfortable but overall the homes are not well-kept. For those preparing for a wedding, expectations are pretty important, and that is the reason for sharing these specifics. The 2nd story house had only one small mirror, which made getting ready for the ceremony very challenging, but we made it work. We booked Chef Jesse for the wedding dinner. He was very organized, prepared and easy to communicate with from start to finish. He also helped with a small wedding cake on short notice, which turned out pretty cute. We felt the meal was good, but not great, compared to the cost. As others had mentioned, the drive up to the property is a

    We had an incredible stay this past Memorial Day weekend, even despite some electric power challenges. A perfect space for our group of 10. A great location for getting away from the crowds camping in Big Sur but still close enough to get to some great hikes up the Coast. The property manager was great in helping answer questions. We hope to make it back some day!

    The view, the pool, the hot tub and even the vibe, are just what you think you’re getting when you rent this property, and they’re all great. But the house is in need of some upkeep and the road, which is doable when it’s dry, is pretty scary when it’s wet. It is steep, narrow, and rutted with sharp turns. We were lucky and got in and out on dryish days but even so we left our 2WD car at the bottom. Just be aware and bring an appropriate vehicle. As for the house, it’s not bad, but for the price you would expect it to be kept up a bit better. And given that you really must plan to do all of your cooking there, you would expect to have a fully functioning kitchen with lids for the pans, knives that are sharp and a stove that is fully functional. These are all easily fixable and I hope they do make those improvements so that the price matches the property condition.
