Carmel Valley is a beautiful place. You will find wonderful weather, (probably the best in California) and nature overflowing beyond the valley rims. You will see extraordinary oak trees, pines, and majestic redwoods. Mountains overtake the scenery while  giving  you a sense of tranquility. Driving along Carmel Valley road is a joy  to say the least....One will find points of interest every few miles,  with country style shops, wineries, nurseries, barns, and beautiful parks. Carmel Valley is also home to three championship golf courses and the Garland Ranch Regional Park. The park offers miles of nature and equestrian trails which wind throughout this 3,100 acre area rising from the Carmel River to the slopes of the Santa Lucia Mountains. There is an average of 283 sunny days a year here and Carmel Valley is regarded as the sunbelt of the Monterey Peninsula.

Carmel Valley is located 12 miles east from Carmel via Carmel Valley Road.
