Country Garden Inn was perfect for the three days in the Carmel/Big Sur area. They were very gracious and gave us lots of good tips on sights and nearby restaurants. They serve a lovely breakfast. It was a quiet and very sweet place to come back to after being out and about each day. Simple and clean and charming.

My husband and I needed to make last-minute revisions to our travel plans and l called Country Garden Inns just in time to get the last room. I was going to run the Big Sur Marathon and was concerned about getting the right location (close by to catch the bus for the Marathon), finding a good restaurant with pasta for... More

My wife and I stayed at the Country Garden Inn during the Big Sur Marathon in which I was running. I can't say I was surprised because I had read many good things. We loved everything about our stay. A great setting surrounded by beautiful hills, very quiet setting but right around the corner from great local restaurants ( a... More

This is a pretty Inn that has nice views as you sit outside of the surrounding hills. The rooms are older, but ours was very clean and the bed was very comfortable. It had a nice gas fireplace. The breakfast was better than most - incredible cereals and fruit - above average! Very pleasant atmosphere and close to the wineries... More

While traveling up the coast between business appointments, my wife and I "strayed from the Pacific Coast Highway," and ventured inland for a delightful stay at the Country Gardens Inn. We thoroughly enjoyed the relaxing patio, the easy walk to nearby restaurants, and the marvelous hospitality provided by the staff. Manager Dirk Oldenburg was particularly kind and helpful to us,...

The room was very clean and everything we expected. We also enjoyed the patio sitting area in the morning and looking out at the mountainside and the pool area. The breakfast was great. We... More

I am heartened by the timely and just response I received when I and two of my friends (guests staying at the Acacia Lodge) found a water pipe leak that soaked a portion of the room and some of our luggage. The pipe likely cracked due to a frost that occurred during the night. I thank Country Garden Inns for... More

Although the accommodations are a little dated as some other reviews have noted, the hospitality of the General Manager and staff by far makes up for this. When you compare the room to the size of other rooms in the area, this is still a good value. The breakfast room is very comfortable and the breakfast was nicely done. Just... More
