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.

This place has it all when it comes to cleanliness, comfort, location, and friendly hosts. This location is located behind a gated home and has a country feel. We booked through the website, and arrived onsite the day of our reservation. We were greeted by Lydia who gave us a quick tour around the room. The room includes a small fridge, microwave, sink, and useful glass, cups and plates. It also have a k-cup coffee machine and a light assortment of snacks and coffee. The place is immaculately kept and felt brand new. It is open, spacious, and comfortable. The small throw blanket was useful on the cooler nights and robes are provided. We really enjoyed the patio furniture and ate dinner each night at the room (Each room has a private outdoor area). The weather was great and soo too were the sunset views. The home is about 10-15 minutes away from restaurants and shopping but I recommend you bring groceries with you for convenience. It's not that the drive is so long as you don't want to leave, it's that nice! :) The bed is by far the most comfortable I have ever experienced staying somewhere outside my home. The sheets, comforter, pillows, and down blanket gave a cloud type experience. The black out shades were awesome and enabled us to sleep in and maintain privacy. There are four units so it would be great for a couples get away or family vacation. Andrew and Lydia did check on us once during our stay but gave us the space to relax. They were also there for us several times when we had questions. Checkout was a breeze, no real requirements behind leaving the key and gate operator behind. We loved it so much we have already booked for next year.

The property manager was so easy to get ahold of, even late at night which was very helpful for answering any questions we had about the property. Also the management team was incredibly considerate and accommodating - we had initially booked the villa for another date but couldn’t make it due to a medical emergency and the management team rescheduled our stay free of cost.

I liked that it was close to the village. The room was ok. The bathroom was scary. It was old and rundown. There was no way i would ever shower in there. It looked dangerous. Seems like it would not be legal with all the piping everywhere. The window screens were broken. It was super rustic and i thought way over-priced. It was clean and host was responsive. Rustic is not for me. Lesson learned.

Beautiful little spot just a short 5 min walk (no sidewalks beware!) to village. Terrace is wonderful overlooking the lake. Just a few minutes walk to local brewery. Breakfast/snacks/drinks available. Good parking, good internet! We had the room ’la petite 9’ small fridge, coffee maker. Comfy bed, smallish bathroom but fine. Only downside, the fan was loud but did not much good.. very, very hot in room.. It’s a little gem, so recommended!!

We stayed in the yurt village and it was such a beautiful little get away. The yurt was extremely comfortable and had everything we could possibly need. There’s a river that my son enjoyed playing in and it’s only a 10 min drive to Yosemite.
