Roam+Board :: Glen Oaks Big Sur

[trip style = active & adventure + weekend getaway]

{Editor's Note: Last week we introduced Trip Styler's new look and told you about a new feature we'd be starting this Friday called Roam+Board! R+B will publish almost every Friday, as Fashion Friday continues to hit the runway once a month. Showcasing hotels, resorts, vacations rentals and glamping in oft and less visited destinations, with cool features and a focus on design, R+B will cycle through a variety of trip styles from the approachable to the aspirational. Enjoy.}

What Picture Glen Oaks Big Sur as your woodsy weekend hideaway or road trip retreat. This series of forest cabins with green sensibilities and thoughtful design, warms guests with fireplaces, Pendleton Woolen Mills blankets and feather duvets.

Where 150 miles from San Francisco and 300 miles from LA off Hwy 1 {Note: no ocean views}.

When Because the outdoorsy cabins are set in a redwood forest, retreating to Glen Oaks any time of year is a cozy escape. Spring and summer will be warmer.

Who/Why For those who want to read a book by the fire, enjoy the quietness of the forest and do a little hiking on the side.

Cost The smallest cabins start around $200/night {Includes wifi, but no TV, so leave the remote control - and Fido - at home}.
