We rented this for the location, which offered us walking access to point Lobo State Park across the road. This well maintained renovated barn offered a large, single living room, kitchen, sleeping areas, pool table, and foosball table all in one space. It was great for us and my boys loved the pool table, foosball table, and a music area with a guitars and a keyboard. there’s also a very nice outdoor patio with a gas grill and fire pit. aside from Point Lobo State Par One of my favorite outings was to Carmel River beach where my boys swam in the river and there were lots of pelicans in an inland estuary. ##### Ronald W.

Across the street from the beach and great trails, cows to feed, basketball hoop, musical instruments, and even a treadmill! The property owners are the sweetest hosts.

This was a perfect pick for our family of 5. The location was perfect for us to explore, steps from Point Lobos! While the open layout concept might be tricky for light sleepers, it worked perfectly for us. Especially with the outdoor space/fire pit for parents to escape at night. Seemless check in/check out and wonderful suggestions from owners. And… cows! The kids were in love. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Nichole C.

Morning walks to Point Lobos and Monastery Beach were our highlights. We were beyond fortunate to enjoy 3 perfect weather days in Carmel and cars begin to line up across the street on PCH to walk into Point Lobos. It felt like such a privilege to be able to leave our car and walk there from the Barn. Playing pool and foosball with our daughters was great entertainment. We all needed R&R and all slept so well in the very comfortable beds. The heated floor in bathroom was a very nice touch. We like picking up local coffee and there were multiple options a short drive away. Most importantly, Rich and Daryl are like your new favorite uncle and aunt--there for you if needed. They have their own active lives going on, so you might see each other in passing. We are very grateful they've chosen to share their slice of Heaven in Carmel. ##### Nichole C.

Rich's historic barn turned chic rental property is an amazing stay for anyone. We booked it as a place for my groomsmen to have the day of the wedding to get ready at, but we also used it the night before, my brother (best man) and I, to hang by the fire pit, play some pool and enjoy everything else the barn had to offer. By the way, the views are unbeatable. Rich met us upon arrival and gave us the grand tour. He is so easy-going, kind and responsive and made the stay stress-free, which is exactly what I needed for my wedding weekend. Can't wait to stay here again and I've already recommended it to every friend I know getting married in the area. Thanks so much, Rich! ##### Ryan P.

Aug 5, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Probably the best location in the area We stayed at the Brown Barn for a few days in August and had a wonderful experience. Our favorite things about this rental were the location, property, and activities on site. Our kids loved watching the cows being fed, playing pool and foosball and roasting smores. We’d highly recommend the Brown Barn for families up to 6 that want to be able to walk in to Point Lobos. ##### Tom H. Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Diego N.

Stayed 3 nights in May 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Anna May 26, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Excellent host average experience Rich was very accommodating to allow us bring our dogs and addressed the cleanliness issue in a timely manner. What went well: the cows are really cute! Beautiful yard, perfect for throwing a ball with your dog, there were turkeys and geese as well. Lots of games and things to entertain kids, and a really awesome bathroom. What could have been better:Since the main host was on vacation I think we ran into some issues others didn't. We were supposed to meet and get the key from a back up host but we couldn't get in touch with them. We ended up waiting a long time before calling the main host to get the key. We also didn't get a run down of the property and there isn't a guide or directions onsite, so we may have missed out on some stuff (feeding hay to or petting the cows that others had mentioned would have been awesome).The bushes have grown a lot since the photos (to block the highway) and we couldn't see the ocean from the house. This was a bummer since we were so close. You can see the ocean from the back yard but we couldn't hear it due to the busy highway. ##### Anna Stayed 2 nights in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Elizabeth G. May 12, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Fantastic This was a weekend stay for my husband and our two adult sons. Excellent communication with host. Check-in was seamless and they appreciated the orientation tour of the property. There are too many amenities to list, but the pool table and guitars were definitely a hit, as were the many TVs and comfy furniture. There was plenty of room to spread out and relax, and everything they needed was provided. The view was described as “sick” by one of my sons and they all wished they were able to stay another day. ##### Elizabeth G. Stayed 2 nights in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Dmitry B.

The property was amazing, both inside and out. Rich and his wife were incredibly kind and welcoming hosts, making us feel right at home. The location was unbeatable—convenient and surrounded by beautiful scenery. Our family especially loved the open floor plan, the pool table, foosball table, and the outdoor grill. We would love to go back again! ##### Chad M.
