What campers say

Fernwood Resort and Campground sits in a striking Big Sur riverside setting with easy access to Pfeiffer Big Sur State Park trails. It offers a mix of campsites, RV hookups, tent cabins and motel-style rooms, plus a convenient camp store and an onsite restaurant/tavern. Many guests praise clean, well-maintained grounds, accessible river frontage and useful amenities (water/electric hookups, pet-friendly). However, some visitors report inconsistent housekeeping in cottages or rooms, uncomfortable mattresses, occasional loud private gatherings, and a strict cancellation policy that felt inflexible. If you prioritize location and amenities, it’s a strong choice; those seeking guaranteed quiet or flawless room service should be cautious.
