The Pfeiffers and the Ewoldsens, Big Sur pioneer families, began a vibrant tradition that continues to this day in the operation of the Big Sur Inn: fine food, excellent service, comfortable accommodations and warm hospitality. We are pleased that the Pfeiffer descendants who still reside in Big Sur take an active interest in the River Inn, and we strive to continue their legacy.

The Big Sur River Inn makes a spectacular setting for Big Sur weddings. We are proud to offer services that can help make your wedding the most romantic day of your life! We offer full service catering, lodging, music, flowers and photography. Our Special Events Manager can work with you to fine tune your unique Big Sur nuptials.

The River Inn is also a memorable location for all kinds of Big Sur events: rehearsal dinners, family reunions, birthday parties, anniversaries and more. In addition to dining at our restaurant here in Big Sur, you can enjoy diverse live music on Sunday afternoons, shop for exotic gifts at the Heart Beat Gallery, or just spend a lazy day listening to the sounds of the flowing river!
