“Fun place to stay. Super quiet and peaceful. The food was absolutely amazing! Had the tacos, soup, veggie burger while staying here. Breakfast was tasty but a bit pricey. The hikes are super close to the lodge. Keep in mind that internet service is not working here so bring a hotspot or starlink. We went to the near by library to get internet to do homework.”

“Our family enjoyed the delicious Thanksgiving Day feast at the Big Sur Lodge. Nestled under the redwoods on the patio we were able to reflect on our gratitudes, unplug from the business of everyday life, and eat the best pumpkin pie ever.”

“Fires in the fireplace of #19 (I think the exact, lovely room where we stayed 20 years ago), walking in the redwoods, and easy access to all sorts of great places to hike and eat good food.”
