This is a beautiful little hotel in a fabulous location. Our room was big and had everything we needed. We would love to have stayed longer but we were only travelling through this area. The staff are really lovely. I didn’t use the pool as I had a cold but the others in my group did. The fire pits in the eve are a great place to relax and unwind.

We had a lovely stay. We had a small problem during check-in, but Angela from Kacey’s next door was incredibly helpful. After that it was all smooth! Exceptionally clean, spacious, quality furnishings and towels. Windows on both sides so it’s easy to get a breeze going and air out the room. I would definitely recommend!

Don't miss Big Sur! A truly beautiful spot.

Don't miss Big Sur! A truly beautiful spot. A highlight for us was the hike around Lobos Point where the wildlife is abundant and the scenery breathtaking. Eating out was pricey but we stayed at Big Sur campground and cabins where we able to cater for ourselves. During April the roads were reasonably quiet, making the drive along the coast super easy.

Big Sur was a lovely place to visit.

Big Sur was a lovely place to visit. I hike a lot in Mt Tam area because of the views. But the Ewoldsen trail at Julia Pfeiffer Burns state park was a real gem. If you have to hike one trail in Big Sur, I would do this one. Nice meandering trail with a great view on top. Pretty remote with no cell service so be prepared to just enjoy the moment and the scenary.

Beautiful sceneries driving down highway 1 to get to the lodge. Once there, loved the location (surrounded by large trees and forest) and the room's layout. Its a shame there was no internet connection, and no television in the room. So nothing much to do after dinner.

Big Sur is absolutely stunning.

Big Sur is absolutely stunning. You must have a car to get around, and wifi is very limited. We stopped at a restaurant along the road that had no wifi either. I would absolutely return. It's a great place to unplug and connect with nature.

What isn’t there to like about Big Sur?

What isn’t there to like about Big Sur? Beautiful forests and oceans, lots of hiking opportunities, and just all-around peaceful, at least it was in November. I would recommend it to anyone who wants to get away from it all for a while and chill out.

Big Sur was my first visit. Loved the area and the hikes.

Big Sur was my first visit. Loved the area and the hikes. Opted for a lodge rather than an Airbnb to make sure to change our rooms or at least provide clean towels every day. No towel racks in the room so difficult to dry towels and reuse. We are four in our stay and this was a deal breaker. Will not stay at this inn next time.

Such a lovely & special location in Big Sur Wife, kids & I loved our time there. Surrounded by nature & tranquility. No wifi in the rooms was lovely to disconnect (wifi just outside in lodge & rest hall 50-100m away) Free roaming Turkeys & Deer were a real highlight/treat :) Really appreciated help from the front desk & management with recieving parcels from Amazon which we couldn't get delivered to a locker. Massively helpful for international visitors :)

The room was gorgeous, as I remembered from previous stays and that is all I can say about our use of the facilities because it rained both days and so the park and hotel staff closed all the trails and the beaches as well. The restaurant was empty as were the cabins and rooms. It was dead.

The idyllic location and the thoughtfully planned amenities will make any stay memorable. Highly recommend this slightly different stay experience. If you don't want to stay in motel, hotel, or inn, Big Sur Cabins and Campground is an excellent choice.

Lovely location in the middle of Big Sur. Nice room with big and comfortable bed. We had dinner at the pub/restaurant with decent pizza and a fun pub quiz! Market/cafe next door has anything you might need.
