Living in Southern California with family in the Bay Area we find ourselves driving long distances around Christmas time to visit relatives. We decided to detour from our normal direct route and take a side trip through Big Sur. Although naturally beautiful, Big Sur has been touristed to death with overpriced and poor value food and accommodations at every turn.... more

I actually didn't stay, but made a reservation which I later had to cancel. I gave them 5 months notice of the cancellation and was charged $35 fee. The website implies that there is a 7 day notice required but upon re-reading it I see the "and" a $35 fee. This feels like someone just stole $35 dollars from me,... more

My husband and I stayed here for two nights at the end of May. I can't say enough positive things about the place. The yurt was wonderful, comfortable, and provided the deepest sleep I've had in a long time. The bathroom facilities were a short walk away and were clean. Neither of us minded the walk and having the restrooms... more

Treebones is great! My husband and I were looking for a relaxing getaway back in April; I also love finding different or original places to stay. This place absolutely suited our needs and desires. The location is amazing and the yurts are unique, large, and very comfortable. The bathrooms, lodge, and pool area were all immaculate. We brought our own... more

I was looking for was a campsite with: an ocean view, not too many people around, nobody would drive by at 2:00 AM, nor a drunken party next door. Treebones is serene and it was everything I had hoped for. It is like staying at a bed and breakfast, but bring your own bed for $65 a night. Which was... more

We stayed at Treebones for a couple of nights as part of our honeymoon trip down highway 1. We can't say enough good things about the place! It was a really peaceful and friendly place. I definitely recommend it if you want to stay somewhere different tot the usual hotel or guest house. Location was unbeatable, food was great and... more

My family (2 adults, 2 teens) stayed at Treebones in April 2008, and liked the overall experience of staying at an "alternative" resort that was definitely not your run-of-the-mill hotel. The setting is beautiful, with mountains on one side and the ocean on the other, and although it was a bit expensive for a "yurt" without a lot of amenities,... more

We stayed here one night over the Memorial Day weekend and loved it. The full ocean view yurt we had was really great and so unique. Yurts are sort of a mishmash of a cabin/tent/teepee that look like little circus big tops and have hard wood floors, nice beds and a gas fireplace which keep the yurts nice and toasty.... more

Big Sur is an incredible area, so that's the best thing that the yurts have going for them. Otherwise, save your money and go sleep in a tent in one of the many state parks nearby. The yurts are basically a glorified tent anyways. They have a wooden floor, vinyl sides and plastic windows. The wind is very strong off... more

This is one of the most unique places - a beautiful setting in the Big Sur area. The Yurts are pretty nice...comfy bedding and a sink in each one. Some of the yurts have an oceanfront deck with awesome views (plus the deck of the lodge also has a deck overlooking the ocean). The waffle breakfast and the dinners (dinners... more
