Saltbox - Pacific Grove House - Two Blocks to Beach and Downtown!

Ready for a great vacation in “America’s last hometown?” This is it.  You’ll find vintage charm around every corner in this classic Pacific Grove home. The cozy living room (with seating for four) opens to the dining area (with a table that expands to seat 6) and a coffee station (with a Keurig and a drip coffee maker).   Sparkling quartz countertops and a beautiful tile backsplash highlight the kitchen, which includes a four-burner gas range with a griddle, a rolling butcher block island, and a 24” dishwasher. The laundry room is behind the kitchen, along with a full bath with a curved shower.  The light-filled bedroom off the entry has a Queen bed, comfortable reading chair, and an adjoining office with a desk. A narrow stairway leads to the master bedroom (King) and a third guestroom with twin beds. The upstairs bath has a clawfoot tub/shower.   Relax in the sunshine in the Adirondack chairs out front, barbecue out back, stroll to the beach, or head downtown to explore restaurants, cafes, galleries, boutiques, antique shops, and a cinema. With everything in easy walking distance, you may park your car and never use it.  Street parking only.   Pacific Grove Transient Use License #0472

Loved staying at Saltbox!
I recently stayed here with my sister and brother in law while we were visiting Monterey. The house was very cute and well maintained with comfortable beds, great central heat, and a lovely kitchen. Check in was clear and easy! Would highly recommend for a cozy retreat.

Loved Saltbox!
The house is located in the perfect spot. The house was clean and very comfortable to relax in. My friends and I loved how we could easily access downtown Pacific Grove. We rented a car and enjoyed being so close to enjoy Monterey, Carmel by the Sea, and Big Sur. The house will have everything you could possibly need. The only recommendation I would make is to have one full length mirror. Definitely recommend Saltbox!

Perfect place for home base
We enjoyed our stay here. The location was great as there are walkable restaurants and the beach and walking trails nearby. I had one question that I emailed the property manager and he was super fast and professional with his response. My only complaint was that parking was sometimes tricky, as we had to park a block or two away when the spots in front of the house were full. But overall, the house served our needs perfectly!

Nice place, good location
Very clean, well kept property within equal walking distance to the beach or to downtown shops and restaurants. Parking is only available on the street and can be a challenge. Good communication on the check in process from the owner. Overall a nice place and I would recommend.

Chad & Julia’s wedding
The property was perfect for us. My Mom, sister and I came for my nephew’s wedding at the Memory Gardens. Perfect location and convenient to local restaurants and only 1 block to the beach. Good Old Days festival was a bonus!! Would definitely rent again! The only complaint from my companions was the lack of a full body mirror… lol

Saltbox
The property was wonderful. We love the location. Convenient walk to restaurants, bars, and the ocean. Only problem was poor communication from our host. I emailed him prior to arriving looking for a business center to print out some documents. I then texted him. I never got a response. On a second night the power went out around 8:30 PM. I immediately message Tim looking for candles, or flashlight. Again, zero response. So the rest of that night was in the dark.

What a Ride
The house was very nice, plenty of room for our 2 families, and just minutes to walk to Lover Point and the ocean side walk. One thing I would change is to bring the King size bed downstairs for the older folks not interested in climbing stairs. The Rental agent was very helpful when the power went out on the entire penisula and beyond. Would stay again.
