MCPR Says: The trickling fountain greets you when you enter The Quail & Olive, located in The Village at Carmel Valley, CA. A large table sits under an awning and is used for special events and tastings. But on a quiet day, you can take your time tasting more than a dozen varieties of...
Ewingjr98 Says: About 10 miles from Carmel, right along Carmel Valley Road, you will find beautiful and expansive Garland Ranch Regional Park. This 4500 park ranges in elevation from 200 feet along the beautiful Carmel River to about 2000 feet at Snively's Ridge overlooking the entire...
fotobrad Says: Visit Holman Ranch, just up Holman Road from the Carmel Valley Village. Call ahead to arrange a one or two hour trail ride. You will climb up to ridges to experience some of the finest scenery on the West Coast. And the horses are great too.
Lhenne1 Says: There is an abundance on vineyards in Carmel Valley. A weekend trip may be able to take advantage of all of them, but I can't guarantee it. You can stay at a hotel in Carmel Valley, or take one of the wine tours from Carmel-By-The-Sea and Monterey (I suggest the MST Carmel...
Kim3 International Furnishings
Ewingjr98 Says: Kim3 is an amazing acre or two of great antiques and rare modern Asian furniture, sculpture, pottery, art, and even full-scale pavilions. I was amazed at the collection, particularly in the outdoor area that includes $26,000 Indonesian pavilions, $8,000 Buddha statue heads,...
Ewingjr98 Says: Located in the heart of Carmel Valley Village is the Carmel Valley Community Park. This well-groomed park is a favorite of local dog owners. They have nice barbecue facilities, children's playground and a swimming pool. The path around the park is lined with memorial plaques...
Ewingjr98 Says: Laureles Grade Road or County Route G20 is a scenic shortcut between the town of Carmel Valley and Highway 68. The total route is just six miles, but the road climbs about 1000 feet in elevation and offers some stunning views. From the Carmel Valley side you have a few nice...
Ewingjr98 Says: The other day I was heading from Monterey to Soledad, so I looked on a map...about 45 miles and the route via Carmel Valley looked about the same as the route via Salinas on 68 and 101. Boy was I wrong...instead of taking about an hour, the drive took more than two hours...
Book Some Time At Tassajara Hot Springs
jedlegalroadwarrior Says: Not for the faint of heart! You must book reservations at this Zen retreat in the deep wilderness. You must have a vehicle that can withstand the dirt roads, but once you are out there, you can bathe nude in the river, swin in the pools, soak in the sulphur hot springs or...
jedlegalroadwarrior Says: One of the single best "close in" activities in Carmel Valley is to hike the expansive Garland Regional Park. There are plenty of flat paths as well as long, precipitous trails veering off in all directions. This is your single best bet to see a variety of flora and fauna...
Wine Tasting at Chateau Julien
orcoastgirl Says: This is the first winery you will come to when you enter Carmel Valley from Carmel Proper. It is a very nice place to wine taste and they have won several awards for their wines. You can taste in the main lobby area or take your tasting out to the small, enclosed patio area...

Carmel By The River RV Park: Nice RV Park in the Carmel/Montrey Area
kellinwood Says: This is a nice, secluded, full-service RV park in Carmel Valley only 5-10 miles away from Carmel and Monterey. The park is clean and offers full hookups, wireless internet, showers, lounge/game room, and a store. This RV park is very quiet because it is off the highway quite...
Lhenne1 Says: Cafe Rustica is an Italian restaurant in Carmel Valley. We stopped in on a sunny day in the valley while we were out for a drive. The lunch menu consists of a few light appetizers, salads, pizzas, ciabata sandwiches and a few dinner-type items. The dinner menu is fairly...
Ewingjr98 Says: Cafe Rustica is one of the top casual restaurants in Carmel Valley. We stopped here one warm, quiet Wednesday afternoon in the early fall and had a very quiet lunch. We sat in the shade on the umbrella-covered patio near the front entrance. I started with a Beck's, Laura had...
A motor cycle cop hides at the corner stoplight at Carmel Valley Road and State Highway One. The reason is that although there is a right-turn-only lane turning into Highway One north towards Monterey coming west on Carmel Valley Road, the right turn is not permitted on a red light. I got a $500 ticket not realizing that the turn is prohibited on red even though the traffic coming from the left cannot use the right lane that I turned into. The cop appeared withing five seconds while I was still making the turn. I can see why this would be a big money maker ticketing tourists who are unfamiliar with the intersection.
