Nice clean campground. Sites are kinda small. If we had more then one tent site one would have been problematic.

The glamping tents are perfect, so beautiful in the trees, great service on arrival, the bathhouses for the tents are really nice and clean. Having the water and insta hot water at each tent is really convenient. Love it here.

Great campground! Highly recommend this as a spot to stay in big sur if you are up for camping. Sites are a good size and fairly flat. Bathrooms are some of the cleanest I have ever had at a campground. Plus beautiful to wake up in the heart of a redwood forest. Will be back.

Absolutely beautiful space to camp! The trees were gorgeous, the staff was friendly and our campsite (hike-in #60) was very spacious. However there are definitely some cons to note: - showers are $2 for 5 minutes but only stay warm for about 30 seconds before turning cold - staying at a hike-in campsite is a big time pain! Very far away from restrooms and the parking lot. - wide range in quality of sites. Some are spacious (like ours) but many were right on top of other people. - quite expensive for what you get!

Can I take an 8 person tent?

Anibal Rubio | Oct 31, 2020
Kris Carlos | Nov 1, 2020

The sites differ a bit but I would say you are fine. We had a 6 person tent (10'x10') and we had plenty of room.

Are you able to visit and check out the sites before hand so you know which one you like to book?

No idea but might be worth calling them to ask before making the drive there.

The website mentions that each campsite can accommodate 2 tents. But the campsite descriptions are different from one another. How do you confirm that you are getting a site that can accommodate your needs?

Pat Jones | Sep 1, 2020
Evan Weinman | Sep 2, 2020

I'm not sure you can get any confirmation. I did a loop around the site when I was there two days ago and I can pretty confidently say that most areas are capable of fitting two tents. The difficulty with your questions is based on the size of each tent. I'd say if each tent is 3 person or less you'll be more than fine. I can't comment on anything bigger.

No rv's, no hook ups - saw this on their website They offer a glamping area, which is an already setup campsite or they offer spaces for you to setup your tents.

Do the glamping tents have locks on them

Erin Goward | Jul 22, 2021
Reverend Cook | Jul 23, 2021

They do not lock but you can lock it with a personal lock but when I went to, I locked stuff up in my car when I left the site that I was worried about. Although the stuff I did leave out wasn't disturbed or stolen.
