2 nights at Buddha Room RV glamping, Redwoods
This is one of the greatest places i’ve ever stayed!! I’ve stayed at a lot of glamping-type places, and this one is top tier. Every bit of the space is SO beautiful, so thoughtfully done and beyond relaxing. It’s a perfect mix of comfort & has really nice balance with the indoor/outdoor areas - there’s a nice cozy RV pod for sleeping, lots of heaters everywhere & the outdoor kitchenette & outdoor shower are both soo lovely. Stayed in the middle of February and was very warm at night with the heated blanket in the RV :)) Melissa is a phenomenal and super welcoming host who really cares about her guests! I would absolutely recommend this place is you find yourself nearby!!

Weekend Trip to The Coastal Redwood Cabin | Creek
This is a lovely place to go for a little R&R! Easy to get to, serene location nestled within the redwoods. There's stairs that lead you to the river. Comfortable bed and good quality bedding, complimentary snacks and coffee. We went in November so the hottub was perfect for the cool nights. Close by Capitola, which we love to visit and did some hiking at Nisene Mark's State Park. We recommend this spot and may be back next year.

The best dog-friendly glamping sites near Seaside guide
Where to go
The Monterey Peninsula
Just south of Seaside, the Monterey Peninsula offers tons to see and do, from taking a scenic seafront drive to visiting Point Pinos Lighthouse, which dates back to 1855. Don't miss Carmel at the southern end of the peninsula, where you can tour an 18th-century mission or simply stroll around town checking out its famously quirky storybook houses.
The San Francisco Peninsula
North of Seaside, the San Francisco Peninsula features a mix of sandy and rocky beaches and a whole lot of redwood trees. This area makes for a great hiking day trip from Seaside, though you may want to stick around to set up camp in one of the many inland state parks.
California's Central Coast
Stretching south from Monterey Bay until the southern end of Ventura County, California's Central Coast is known for gorgeous beaches—many of which have year-round campgrounds—along with some of the state's most lauded wine-growing areas. The Big Sur coast, a short drive south, offers some of the finest views in the region along with dense forests full of hiking trails and camping spots.
When to go
Like Monterey, Seaside has a mild climate and gets a lot of visitors throughout the year. Summer weekends are particularly busy, as is the third full weekend of September, when the annual Monterey Jazz Festival brings tens of thousands of visitors to the area. Come in winter to see migratory whales make their annual journey past Seaside's shores.
