Good amenities for a national park. WiFi needs some work as it’s only available in the two main buildings. Could use some updating.

The onsite dinner was nice. Best feature was how quiet it was, and my run the next morning. The trail was as close as one could imagine it, and offered great views.

We stayed at the lodge for 3 days with 3 teens. We had a LOVELY time, and that is saying a lot! The rooms were spacious, and every day, they delivered firewood and started for the fireplace at no charge. There is no internet ANYWHERE in Big Sur, but we had great connection at the convention center as well as the lodge. Also, the water pressure was great and we always had hot water. The staff was top tier. They had great recommendations for

We liked the facility overall, though it was very outdated. The staff was friendly & helpful, but the check-in process was timely. The surrounding area is beautiful & the hiking trails are well marked & maintained.

The lodge is exactly what we wanted. Set back off the main road, in the middle of the redwoods, and that 80s style summer camp vibes. No tv’s or wifi but the fire place and coffee in room gave a feeling of having everything we need. The check in process seemed frustrating for other patrons but staff was pleasant and accommodating. We will go back.
