John and Dawn thank you so much for being so darn hospitable. Your home / bed and breakfast was more than we could have hoped for. The food was incredible, you are true gourmands. The atmosphere was so comfy and cozy. We will be back. Thank you for making your bed and breakfast so welcoming. The afternoon wine and cheese... More

My wife and I spent a long weekend at the Jabberwock staying in the Toves room. I was there to run in the Big Sur Marathon. The night before before the run, Dawn made a reservation for us at Vito's for pasta even though the place was already booked. Since the bus for the starting line left at 3:30am, Dawn... More

We are clearly in a minority judging by other reviews, but we did not enjoy our stay here. Our room was 'Mimsey' which is tiny with no bathroom. There is only room for the bed and 2 tiny bedside tables, no other furniture and nowhere to put suitcases so we had to climb over them to get into bed. Only... More

As owner of The Jabberwock, we do appreciate and respect the reviews of our guests - however, we find it very disturbing to read the above review from our British guests that stayed with us in April. The description of all 7 of our rooms are shown, with pictures, on our website and inasmuch as the "tour operator" booked their... More

The Jabberwock inn was a fantastic place to stay for my wife and my 1st year wedding anniversary. I wanted to go somewhere that we could just relax and rejuvenate. We stayed a couple nights in the Borogrove room, which I have to say was fantastic. The room was large and beautiful, complete with a nice view of the bay.... More

The Jabberwock is by far the best place to stay when visiting the Monterey peninsula. I have been coming back to this inn for the past 6-7 years. I always stay with John and Dawn during the car week activities each August, and whenever I can find an excuse to get out of the valley heat. One day I hope... More

The couple that run the inn are very friendly and go out of their way to make your stay special. Comfortable dial-a-number mattresses, great breakfasts, wine, sherry, brandy, hor d'oeuvres and wonderful cookies in the evening. [we liked the cookies at the Inn much better than the ones at the Tollhouse store on Cannery Row, which we found to be... More

My husband and I stayed at the Jabberwock Inn in celebration of our first anniversary. We really enjoyed ourselves. John and Dawn are very accommodating and nice, constantly making sure we were happy and well taken care of. They provide a wonderful spread of appetizers at the nightly reception, along with great wine, which is all included in the cost... More

We spent one night here on our trip down the coast, and it was one of the highlights! We arrived in mid-afternoon (after a great day at the aquarium!), with enough time to relax and settle in before wine & hors d'oeuvres were set out on the porch. Downstairs is a great indoor wrap-around porch to relax in. We met... More

This was our first bread and breakfast experience. It is a very different experience from staying in a traditional hotel. The inn keepers are very friendly, make good food, and are very helpful with where you should go to eat and what to do. The house has a very homey feel, and is very inviting. The location is great. Its... More
