“What strikes me is the chance to nestle among the trees in a quiet suite. With kitchen facilities and a swimming spot down by the river, there's an appealing lodge vibe here that encourages a slower pace. It seems like a solid base for exploring when the Big Sur road is open, but equally rewarding if you end up staying put.”
