among the redwoods february 2020

Sad to read that this very special and historic spot along Hwy1 at Big Sur is closing. You’ll be missed @deetjensbigsurinn #hwy1 #bigsur #deetjens #inn #coast #cacoast #highway1 (at Deetjen's Big Sur Inn) https://www.instagram.com/p/CEfv-qWp2I1/?igshid=11w933egfqwpk

Excactly one year ago I drove from San Fransisco to Los Angeles with this wonderful crew of friends, Kaja, Erlend and Amund. Rainy, gray Norway really makes me miss it. January, 2016.

We were quite enamored with our Dutch door balcony at Deetjen’s Big Sur Inn; built in the 1930’s & as quaint as can possibly be! Then an amazing dinner at the gorgeous Nepenthe to end the dreamy day. ❤️ #pch #pchroadtrip #pacificnorthwest #bigsur #deetjens #nepenthe (at Deetjen's Big Sur Inn) https://www.instagram.com/p/CCR5EdXphDR/?igshid=1sfa7nwoum6o

We had an incredibly peaceful and much needed sojourn at @deetjensbigsurinn for my birthday this past week. This is a place we drove by years ago along the oh so popular coastal Highway 1 (PCH) and made a pact to stay one day. It exceeded all expectations. I’ll be posting images of our stay for the next few days. Ironically, the first photo I’m posting is what’s left of the old Stokes building on the Deetjen property, which was damaged in a storm in 2017 and hasn’t been renovated yet. But it still sits beautifully in the canyon, like a little fairytale cabin. The Deetjen property nestles within Castro Canyon in Big Sur, California. The buildings were built by Helmuth Deetjen with his homeland’s traditional Norwegian techniques. Along with his wife Helen, they created this magical refuge amongst the redwoods in the late 1930s, which is now on the U.S’s National Register of Historic Places. // #BigSur #California #Deetjens #BigSurInn #deetjensbigsurinn #nationalregisterofhistoricplaces #america #highway1 #pch (at Deetjen's Big Sur Inn) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bs586YBlxbj/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=j854vnet8ddw
