Inn at the Pinnacles
Set amid 160 acres of hilltop vineyards overlooking the Salinas Valley and the coastal Santa Lucia Mountains, this Mediterranean-style bed-and-breakfast is an oasis of comfort just off the winding road leading to the park's western entrance. The pool beckons to dusty hikers after a hot day on the trails, and the owners make guests feel like family, especially on Saturday evening's cheese-and-wine-tasting hour featuring the estate's own Brousseau wines. This place is especially popular in the milder spring and fall months and during astronomical events such as meteor showers, so book ahead.
