Suiattle Riverside Camp

I wish I could give Riverside more than five stars. Our experience was excellent before we even arrived! My friend and I spoke to Will and Pam upon booking, and they kindly suggested we come one night later than we originally planned because of the weather, which was really good advice! We had great weather the whole way down and back to the Bay Area. We arrived just before dusk, and Will met us at the turn off, checked us in, and showed us where to go. Riverside is incredibly cozy, quiet, and surrounded by gorgeous redwoods. The cabins are also extremely comfy - luxurious! We had a wonderful night in cabin 2. Our trip was truly made by Pam: she saw us having some trouble starting our fire, and she came over with extra newspaper and took the time to show us how to get a big bonfire going. The next morning, we met her at the camp store with the unofficial Riverside mascot: Oatmeal the French Bulldog ❤️ needless to say, our trip couldn't have been more pleasant. Look no further for lovely accommodations on your trip to Big Sur! Riverside is the best!

I'm thinking they must be under new ownership because this year was not good. I've been going with my family for 18 years except the year my daughter was born and in 2020. I've always loved my experience there and my kids have made great memories... This time not so much. We were made to change cabins to a much smaller one with the front door having a window kicked in... They are charging $5 for a single match book... I seriously thought they were kidding... They used to give out matchbooks with their advertising now they're charging for a basic white one one matchbook... The prices went way up for the cabins themselves... It was interesting because many of the cabins were not filled and I've never been there (I go the same time every year) when they haven't been booked solid. I always felt like family... Not now... I've recommended it over and over and have had many friends stay there... Not anymore
