Overview

This is the park’s catch‑all resupply stop inside Big Sur Lodge—open every day, year‑round, from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. If you forgot something essential or want a small memento after a hike, this shop keeps you covered without leaving the redwoods.

What You’ll Find

  • Local and handmade gifts that actually feel Big Sur: jewelry, art, clothing, toys, and books.
  • Trail fuel and creature comforts: snacks, cold drinks, beer and wine, toiletries, and other essentials.
  • Camping basics when plans change: tents, sleeping bags, cook stoves, and firewood.

Good to Know

  • It’s located right in the main lodge, steps from trail access and the restaurant.
  • Cell service on the property—and across Big Sur—can be spotty, so plan accordingly.
  • There’s also a separate Big Sur Campstore that operates seasonally May–October (Thu–Mon, 10:30 a.m.–5:00 p.m., closed 2–3 p.m.); in the off‑season this lodge shop is your go‑to.

Best Time to Visit

Anytime during its 8 a.m.–8 p.m. hours. If you’re visiting outside May–October, the seasonal camp store is typically closed, making this the most convenient place to stock up before or after your hikes.

Pros

  • Open daily year‑round (8 a.m.–8 p.m.) for reliable resupply
  • Stocks camping basics plus snacks, drinks, and beer/wine

Cons

  • Cell service is limited around the lodge

Tips

  • Open daily 8 a.m.–8 p.m. year‑round—easy pre‑ or post‑hike stop.
  • They sell firewood, tents, sleeping bags, and cook stoves if you’re short on gear.
  • Expect limited cell service around the lodge.
  • The separate Big Sur Campstore runs May–Oct and closes 2–3 p.m. daily.
  • Highway 1 conditions can change—check for closures before you drive.
