Everything we wanted it to be

This was a place to have a family get away. Close to the Monterey Bay Aquarium and Lover's Point, a very walkable area with cute beachy cottages and open spaces. I would definitely stay again. Well equipped kitchen, comfortable enough beds,(although I am kind of old and missed my own mattress)

Just what we needed

The house was perfect for us. We had everything we needed. So happy to see new restaurants and pubs. We walked everywhere and enjoyed it all. PG is our favorite place to visit. We would definitely rent this house again. Cocktails on the upper deck was so nice. Playing cards at the dinning room table was so much fun. Thank s again

This house was perfect! Beautiful property and it was right on the race course....the kids got to cheer me on from the front porch! We loved staying here and would absolutely recommend it to any family visiting the area. The garage and driveway made this an especially good choice for the neighborhood. made this

Great Location and Perfect House

We enjoyed an extended ladies weekend at the Gingerbread House. It was only a 1 block walk to Lighthouse Av and the quaint shops and restaurants. We also used the house as our start/end point for a walk out to the Point Pinos Lighthouse along the walking trail near Ocean View Bl. The Gingerbread House is also walking distance to the Beach House Restaurant (highly recommend this restaurant).We loved the size of the house. The 3 bedrooms and 2.5 baths were exactly as depicted in the photos. The kitchen, dining room and family/living room were all very spacious. The garage was very large and held a mini-van with plenty of space to get in/out easily. The house was clean and extra linens were easily accessible.We would stay here again.

Beautiful home in convenient location

Extremely clean, well stocked property in a very convenient location. Short walk to Lovers Point or Downtown restaurants and shops. Beautiful homes surrounding as well. Love the deck and office nook. Was slightly warm upstairs on arrival, but convenient upstairs windows provided great airflow and cooled the upper floor in a short time. Overall excellent experience.

Perfect rental

The house was spacious, comfortable, and two blocks from the beach. We saw otters swimming in the ocean every day and walked to the marine sanctuary to watch the seals. Coffee shop and restaurants were two blocks in the opposite direction. The neighborhood was quiet, too. I absolutely fell in love with Pacific Grove and was so happy we stayed there instead of Carmel or Monterey. Sleepy beach towns are the best.

Gingerbread house

This is the third time my family has stayed at the gingerbread house. It’s very charming and suits us very well! The rooms are comfy, the kitchen is well-equipped and the location is fantastic. An easy walk gets you to the beach, into town, to a playground, and for us it’s an easy walk to our relatives home. My only suggestion would be to install a grab bar by the bathtub in the upstairs bathroom. Kate Wright

Great house, even better location

I have 0 complaints about this house which is rare for me. I have rented many homes over the years and this one did not disappoint. It was just as described and pictured. The accommodations were great, really good kitchen setup (important to me as I like to cook). The location was fantastic - walking distance to restaurants and the Ocean! I definitely recommend this property!

Great location and lovely home

We had an overall great stay. The kitchen and bathrooms are nicely equipped and clean. It was unseasonably warm for this time of the year and the temperature in the house was over 80 for 3 of the 4 days. There's no AC, but there were fans to try to cool off the house. All things otherwise were 5 stars.

Wonderful home

My husband and I stayed here with our son and daughter in love and their two girls. It could not have been better! It was so comfortable and fun. There is a secret room that our 2 year old granddaughter just loved! The location was perfect. We walked everywhere and enjoyed the aquarium, beach, coastline and great meals - both out and take-in. We will definitely be coming back! Even met the neighbors across the street and found out they have a home near us in Reno.

Great house in a great location. Just couldn’t get the guest shower to work. Called the maintenance phone and got a message explaining how it worked (which I already knew). No follow up. It was ok, just took baths.
