The place was quiet and clean. The beds and sheets were comfortable and everyone slept well. However, only 4 stars because we didn’t find it fully equipped for our stay, and lacked some basic supplies like trash bags and laundry detergent. Overall, nice stay- thank you!

Perfect accommodations

We all fell in love with this place. Super cute and clean decor. Accommodations were perfect for our group of five including 25 year old best friends who shared a room but had their own beds. Would definitely stay here again! Plus Hal was a great host!

Beautiful home

We had a great stay. We had a late flight the night of check in, but still easily found the home and had no issues getting settled in. Communication with host was smooth and he checked in on us to make sure all was well. The home is unique and lovely. We were able to visit Sequoia National Park and enjoy the beautiful area. Would stay again.

The house was unique and perfect for our family of 6. The location is in a charming neighborhood. It was clean and comfortable. The front gates were a bit wonky and a little difficult to open and close.

Perfect OctaFarm Escape

The property is beautiful and a very unique design! The inside is more spacious than it seems in the pictures. The sunken fire pit is an amazing experience and this house has a WOW factor when you check in. The owner was very communicative throughout the whole booking/stay. I would love to stay here again!

This house is in a really nice neighborhood. There was plenty of room for the five of us. The property could have been cleaned better prior to our arrival. The floors were dirty and some of the cooking utensils I had to clean before we used them because they didn’t seem like they were all very clean. The distance is not too bad to Sequoia snd Kings Canyon National Parks. It took us about 45 minutes, so it wasn’t a bad drive.

It was nice to not be boxed in like a hotel room would’ve been. There’s room to relax,eat,sleep,wash clothing,study,watch television, 3bd. 2ba. Pet friendly though didn’t bring mine on this trip. Can use and wash the on site dishes & cookware. Cook own food. Use fridge,microwave,oven and do laundry. 1 room has two beds. Covered patio with table and chairs. All around a really nice place to stay and plan to rent again soon.

Great for family gatherings

Everything from the pictures and the listings is spot on!! Without hesitation recommend!! Hal has been one of the best host I've ever dealt with!! However, looking back at the listing i noticed a coffee table as part of the patio set was missing during our stay. Luckily we had a folding table. Also, if you want to bbq there is no barbecue on site. Which was a bummer. Again, i would not hesitate to stay here again!! Roger
