Riverside Campground and Cabins is a pet friendly establishment.

We allow pets in our sites, cabins and rooms. In fact, Riverside is the only campground in Big Sur that permits pets within cabin accommodations.

We charge $5.00 per night per dog in our sites, and $30.00 plus tax per night per dog in our cabins and rooms. We allow a maximum of two pets per site, cabin or room. We ask that pets be kept on a leash, that they not be left unattended, and that the owner pick up after their pets. Pet owners staying in cabins will be asked to read and complete the pet owner agreement.

Big Sur is a small, tight-knit community situated in a rugged, rural landscape. The residents of Big Sur are deeply connected to the land and the ocean, and many have lived in the area for generations. Despite its natural beauty and popularity as a tourist destination, the community faces numerous challenges, including limited access to healthcare, education, and other essential services, especially during crisis, like the recent wildfires and storms. To support the residents of Big Sur, Riverside Campground & Cabins partners with local organizations to provide critical resources and funding. By investing in the community, we hope to foster a stronger, more resilient Big Sur for generations to come.
