Like another review on here, my problems began with the road getting washed out making this place inaccessible. Because of this my wife and I want to book an additional night in Monterey on our Pacific Coast trip instead of staying in Big Sur. A major disappointment for us, but it is out of everyone's control. I contacted them to cancel given the issues beyond our control and they are refusing to give us a full refund. They say they are only giving full refunds a week out. Seriously?! A week out we will already be on our trip and we need to ensure we have a place to stay when we get to that area. The operators of this place are greedy and short sighted, caring more about their bottom line than treating customers with respect and understanding. I would avoid this place. They do not know how to run a business.

We have been coming to this place off and on for 30+ years have enjoyed every visit kids always enjoyed the playground and what used to be called happy hour where they could get two ice cream cones for the price of one I've camped in tents and stayed in some of the cabins it's been a great place for us to visit and gi to the surrounding areas it was a very reasonable priced place to camp but recently tent sites have been out if our reach and have stayed closer to home instead of visiting this beautiful area if California we were planning on coming up this year saved up but now looks like with the road closures we wont be able to visit maybe next year and maybe even the new owners will rethink their $100+ tent sites and no happy hour and please no RESORT FEES we could shower for free before and I could buy or bring my own cups tea coffee and hot chocolate and buy firewood kind of strange to charge a RESORT fee to use the facilities that used to be free but nowadays anyway to price people out of where they llked to go

I made a reservation from Friday 3/29 to Sunday 3/31. On Thursday, there was a Wind Advisory in place for Big Sur with over an inch of rain fall expected. Given the obviously dangerous weather conditions, I tried to reschedule the reservation, but the Big Sur Campground declined the request knowing they are putting guests in danger.

Lo and behold, a landslide destroyed the road to the campground on Saturday, leaving thousands stuck in harzadorous conditions. The campground then stated that they are cancelling all reservations through April 8th, but have not responded to my email requesting a refund.

This money-grabbing business knowingly puts guests in danger. Either hope you get lucky with the weather when booking a stay here or avoid at all costs!

깊은 산골 첩첩산중에 있는 산장 숙소에 하루 체류했고 흔히 볼 수 있는 평범한 곳이라고 생각했는데, 이 곳 마트에서 근무하는 어떤 아주머니가 만들어주는 치킨 샌드위치가 정말 터프합니다~???? 과자 느낌이 들 정도로 바싹 구워서 딱딱해진 샌드위치 사이에 커다란 치킨을 잔뜩 넣고 짙은 쑥색 상추를 줄기째 넣어 상당히 강렬하고 터프한 느낌을 소비자에게 제공해주고 있습니다!!????????????

An absolutely gem of a location. Close to nearby state parks, convenience & gas store. Camp sites are clean. There's hot water for showers. Restrooms are cleaned frequently.
The only thing missing is campsites dont have water & electrical points.

Wow, this was our favorite place in the area to camp, I'm disturbed to read in the latest reviews that an out of state interest bought the place for 28 million, and has doubled prices to try to make it a cash cow. Funny thing is my wife and I have always talked about buying the place when we won the lottery and LOWERING the prices so more people could enjoy it. Looking into surrounding area opportunities this year.

** This is our very most favorite place to stay in the Big Sur area! We have tried all the modes of camping here, the tent spaces are great and we have always managed to get something along the river, their cabins are really cool, and offer many different amenities unit to unit, and they have plug in spaces too! They even have a laundry room and private/ public showers for everyone too! Add to this free coffee and soft serve cones for the kiddies and idk how this place could get any cooler. This really is an awesome place to stay, a little pricey but way worth it in my family's opinion.

One of my favorite all time campgrounds. Amazing sites, good bathrooms, FANTASTIC (but freezing) river. Extremely solid campground, every time i come back its a joy!
Notice: if you have small kiddos make sure to supervise them if they go in the river, as the higher up you go the water gets quite deep, fast moving and potentially dangerous. Shouldn't be a problem for careful older kids/ adults.

Enjoyed a fantastic stay at Big Sur Campground & Cabins. The site is conveniently located near various hikes and gas stations. The pristine river within the campground provided clean and fresh water, and the delightful hot showers and well-maintained bathrooms added to the experience.

The staff, particularly Max, were incredibly attentive and went the extra mile to help us with RV issues. A heartfelt thank you to Max for his exceptional assistance! ????????

Really sorry to say that this place has as its primary driver making lots of money out of clients. Charges $25 for their resort pack (two mugs a torch and some wood). When we said that we were not in need of this, we were told that it was compulsory. Free tea and coffee from 8 o’clock the next morning but had to leave at 6:30 so we couldn’t even use the mugs! Had to ask for firefighter and matches which were not spontaneously offered and please note that there is no Wi-Fi available in this resort…..no surprise they charge $20 for access to the Wi-Fi and you have to be stood next to the office. Even the staff seem to be uncomfortable with these money making schemes.

My family really enjoyed staying at a cabin here. Excellent service and location! We will definitely be making it our base camp next time.

Unfortunately there is not a lot of offer in Big Sur. Considering the high price, could be much better:

-If you arrive after 7pm (online they claim 8pm), you will have no wood for a bonfire.
-They charge you 30$ for a kit of 2 mugs and a flashlight which we didn’t need, just adds more waste to the planet.
-No WiFi, which can be a problem as there is no cellphone reception.
-Cabin 064 had no duvet for the sofa bed, so we were cold. The sofa bed was dirty too.
-Receptionist was quite rude over the phone.

We camped in our 37' fifth wheel and it was an amazing experience! No cell reception in this area of Big Sur, but not far north of this local, there is! We can't say enough about the hospitality and friendliness of the staff! Upon checkin, we were given a welcome gift that includes thoughtful gifts for campers! The grounds, restrooms, showers, playground (including basketball courts) were well maintained and clean! We will be back and planning to return with our kids and grandkids to make memories! Great spot for families! (And dog friendly!!)

We loved our campsite right along the creek, sleeping to the sound of the water running was a treat. Lots of beautiful redwood trees. Some late night raccoons scurried through the sites and ransacked the camp next to us that left food out. There were LOTS of kids when we went, and seems like this is a regular family spot. Some parents had children under close watch and were respectful of privacy and space and peace, others not so much. We had kids regularly running through our campsite, picking up equipment on our picnic table, and playing unsafely on the rock ledge over the water. Kids rip through on their bicycles too which I’m sure they enjoy but when it gets dark, and no lights, can be hard to see - so drive slow (speed limit is 3 mph throughout). That’s my only qualm. It was perfectly quiet at night with quiet hours 10pm-8am, but would be nice is parents had a closer watch of their kids so everyone could enjoy their slice of nature how they intended.

Extremely fun and community-type of campground with lots of local Big Sur outdoors attractions close by. The only thing I can complain about is the wi-fi only being available in one area. But, we're here to disconnect and enjoy nature so it's not much of an issue unless you're expecting big news/ emergencies ???? Go camp here,bring a few friends/ family and enjoy a few days of the beautiful animals, river, beaches, hikes and make some fun memories.
