Big Sur Lodge

Big Sur


What you’re paying for here is the peaceful location inside Pfeiffer Big Sur State Park. Duplexes each have a deck or balcony looking out into the redwood forest, while family-sized rooms may have a kitchenette or wood-burning fireplace. Note that the outdoor swimming pool is closed in winter. There are excellent walking trails close by and an onsite restaurant (mains $16-32).
