FACILITIES, AMENITIES, & COMFORTS

Turning off of Carmel Valley Road and approaching Del Mesa Carmel through its tree-lined drive, you realize you’re entering a special world.  A stop at the guarded security gate gives you the feeling of safety—and you know this is a community that cares about residents’ well-being. Continue up the driveway . . .

Amenities for Fitness & Pleasure 

 

Coming to the top of the entry drive, you emerge onto the mesa.  On your right, you’ll see the Clubhouse and on the left, you’ll see the Fitness Center with its indoor pool and spa, as well as a room full of exercise equipment.

 

A full-sized lawn bowling green is next to the Fitness Center where residents meet three times a week for friendly games or a bit of practice. New players are welcomed with open arms and there’s no expectation that they need to become experts in the game.  Camaraderie is key and some residents come just to socialize after games are finished.  

​

A putting green rounds out the area that allows many residents that are avid golfers to sharpen their skills at home before going out to play on one of the Peninsula’s many courses. 

​

Group exercise classes are held in the large Redwood Room of the Clubhouse on a weekly basis.

Clubhouse & Restaurant 

 

Across the road from the bowling green is a generously sized Clubhouse that is the heart of so many Del Mesa social gatherings, events and activities. 

 

Here you’ll find Woody's at Del Mesa  restaurant, as well as meeting rooms that double as card and game rooms, a library with a kitchenette included for gatherings, and a large game room with a pool table and large screen HD television. In the basement, there’s a woodworking shop. And of course, there’s the Front Desk and administrative offices where you’ll get questions answered, reservations taken, and other services. 

​

Meeting Rooms in the Clubhouse may be booked for private events with family and friends.  Catering is available to help make your event a special one.

​

The Gallery Hallway is used by the Art Association to hang displays of residents' art as well as works by other artists on the Peninsula.  A wine reception is usually held so that residents may meet the artist.

Art Center 

 

From the Clubhouse, follow the road around the bend and downhill to find the Art House—a place where painters and crafters can gather to chat while they work or attend the occasional art class.  There are cubby holes available to store personal art supplies for those who don’t want to take them home each day. â€‹If you join the Art Association, you’ll find camaraderie, and occasional group trips to museums and places of interest.

Guest Units 

 

Follow the curving road toward the top of the hill and you’ll pass the Guest Units situated among the trees on the right.  There are six tastefully furnished rooms, each complete with two queen beds, microwave, coffee maker, hair dryer, iron/ironing board and all the comforts of home away from home. It’s a great way to keep visitors close to home while letting them enjoy a bit of privacy and the ability to come and go.

Garden Plots & Dog Park 

 

At the top of the hill, you find the Green Thumb Community Garden where residents can tend personal garden plots for fruit and vegetables or flowers. And among the trees, you’ll see the Grassy Paws dog park where residents can take their dogs to play while the pet parents sit and chat. 

Beautiful Grounds & Hiking Trails

 

While in Del Mesa Carmel, you may see numerous residents out for walks. There’s a choice of wandering the landscaped walkways on the flatter mesa terrain or choosing an aerobic walk up the hill among the homes on the forested inclines.  For ambitious hikers, there are trails connecting the top of the hill with Jack’s Peak Park to the north and with Roach Canyon Park to the east.

​

Many residents of Del Mesa Carmel enjoy hiking and get together regularly with other residents to either saunter at a snail’s pace or do some serious hiking on nearby trails of the Peninsula, Garland Park, Toro Park, Point Lobos Park, Big Sur and more.
