Built in the early 1900's, The Homestead offers the quintessential Carmel experience, blending the traditional "Carmel Inn" charm with the conveniences offered by its proximity to downtown Carmel. Clint Eastwood purchased The Homestead in the early 2000's and renovated/remodeled it in 2004. He kept four of the rooms rustic and affordable so "everyone has the opportunity to enjoy Carmel."
