More About Green Gables:
Green Gables is a Queen Anne Victorian mansion, built in 1888 and restored to serve as a bed and breakfast. The current owners first opened it to guests in 1975, and it opened year-round in 1983. The inn gives visitors panoramic views of Monterey Bay. Adventurous guests might prefer The Gable Room, which has a ladder to the cozy attic room in the gable.
Nearby attractions include Monterey Bay Aquarium, Historic Garden League Tours, Jazz Concerts at Pebble Beach and First Sundays at La Mirada -- an ongoing series at the Monterey Museum of Art which features art and classical music.
