Big Sur Rocks

I really enjoyed that your reservation includes admission to 3 parks locally - that is part of the reason why I wanted to stay at the Big Sur Lodge. Looking forward to returning to the Lodge sooner than later!

Great area to see amazing redwoods, hiking, outdoor unhooking from the stresses of electronics.

10/10 Exceptional

We enjoyed the location and that it was in the state park with several trails.
Monica, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

The location is beautiful, but the lack of Wi-Fi in the rooms is a bit annoying I have to admit. It was very expensive and not exactly a luxury hotel. But again it was a great location and we were just stopping by for a night.

Amazing time in Big Sur
Ira, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Lovely Location

The cabin was lovely, and the location excellent, but as other reviewers say the food is mediocre, and much better to eat down the road at Fernwood. They may be even a better place to stay overall for the price.
Zizi, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Peaceful, electronics free stay.

Great room, no TV! All good apart from the quality of the Wi-Fi. Great location.

Within the forest

An unexpectedly lovely, spartan series of cabins within a redwood forest. Very peaceful and the aroma from the trees truly memorable
Raphael, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

We loved our stay here and it's proximity to the trails. The restaurant and cafe were great. Rooms could be updated.
Rhonda, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

We were locked out of our room on checkout day at 10:30 am for an 11 am check out. Some of the staff appeared to dislike their jobs.
