The Best Western Fireside Inn is located at the southern tip of Big Sur, and is your gateway to a breathtaking stretch of the California coastline. If you are driving south through Big Sur, you should consider the Fireside Inn as an ideal place to end the journey. Alternatively, if you are driving the California coastline in a northerly direction towards Big Sur, then an overnight stop at Fireside Inn will refresh you. Start your day with a morning tour of Hearst Castle, a perfect segue to a leisurely drive along the spectacular California coastline known as Big Sur.
The Big Sur area remains relatively undeveloped. You will only find three gas stations and not a single chain restaurant or supermarket. What you will find here is roadside views that are stunning and well worth the drive. Highway 1 hugs the western edge of the mountains, hardly ever losing sight of the shimmering Pacific. Other activities that many visitors to Big Sur enjoy are mountain climbing, hiking and bird watching. Big Sur also boasts nine state parks, so be sure you allocate some time during your visit to the Best Western Fireside Inn to visit this unforgettable part of California’s coast.
Other nearby points of interest include the Piedras Blancas elephant seal rookery, numerous wine tours and the Morro Bay Estuary.
