Deetjens invites you to relax in comfortable, cabin-like rooms nestled among the redwoods of Castro Canyon. Deetjens Big Sur Inn, located on Highway 1, is convenient to hiking, mountain biking trails, and sea kayaking. The surrounding landscape offers white crested waves breaking against the cliffs of Highway 1, the azure blue of the Pacific and the ever changing colors of the sky. The Deetjens' settled in Big Sur in the 1930's. Almost immediately they began offering hospitality to the adventurous travelers of the brand new Highway 1. The Inn and restaurant have attracted artists, writers, and peace-seekers alike--often bringing together Old Hollywood glamour and the eccentric bohemian Big Sur lifestyle. There's a little something indescribable about a stay at Deetjens. The Inn exists today because when Helmuth Deetjen died in 1972, he left the Inn to be forever enjoyed by transient guests wanting to experience the peace, friendship, and beauty that can be found at the Inn and in Big Sur. The Inn is on the National Register of Historic Places by the US Department of the Interior.  It is operated on a non-profit basis by the Deetjen’s Big Sur Inn Preservation Foundation. Rooms & Cottages Rooms at Deetjens are cozy, rustic and decorated with a blend of antiques and funky treasures from the past. "Grandpa" Deetjen designed each room and oversaw the building of Deetjens Big Sur Inn in the 1930's. We have tried to preserve the look and feel he created in the style of his native Norway.  Each room has a unique personality. A charming mix of French toile, cotton floral prints, velvets and crepe cover the beds and drape windows that look out onto lush redwood forest. Some rooms are decorated with furniture made by Grandpa himself with his assistant Stokes Evans. We work to maintain a peaceful environment for you, extraordinarily different from the buzz of everyday life. To this end we have no televisions, stereos or phones in the rooms. Cell phones do not have reception at Deetjens. On the property there are two pay phones for you. Rooms can be locked from the inside only. Our historic buildings have single-wall construction, and are far from soundproof. To insure a peaceful stay for all our guests, we can accommodate children under 12 only if you reserve both rooms of a two-room building. Please, no pets. All rooms are non-smoking. Prices based on high-season and weekends rates.
