Cottages, Gardens, and Contatas

Cottages, Gardens & Cantatas, the Carmel Bach Festival’s home tour, invites you to experience the charm of five unique homes in Carmel. Each home offers something special, from a cozy “treehouse” overlooking Pescadero Canyon, filled with artifacts and artwork collected over six decades, to a beautifully remodeled childhood home. Discover the whimsical mosaic art of one homeowner, admire the architectural significance of a mid-century modern gem, and step inside a Christmas-themed chalet nestled in the pines. As you tour, talented young musicians from the community will perform in each home.

These homes are located on the North side of Ocean Avenue and into the Carmel Woods. Three of the homes are within walking distance of each other along scenic trails and streets, while the other two require a short drive.
