Property is nice and clean

But I really didn’t like that the beds are super hard. The pillows are super bulky and a lot of light comes from the big windows so for me it was very hard to fall asleep and to stay asleep. But overall, it was a good stay .

Great Location

A beautifully designed rustic lodge with vaulted rooflines and ceilings. The house is located inside the park and offers great views. The layout is quite open, though unfortunately, the master bath is located behind the kitchen, away from the bedrooms. The cabinets and fixtures throughout the house could use an update, but the kitchen appliances are fairly new. Many of the lights in the kitchen and living room were out, making the ambiance of the house quite dim.

A Fantastic Time with a Critical Hurdle

This charming property in Three Rivers is in the heart of Sequoia National Park. While it is well-lit and inviting, it could benefit from better management, as some details were overlooked. The most serious issue we encountered was the driveway leading to the main street. The road is steep and narrow, making proper maintenance of potholes absolutely essential. Unfortunately, those potholes turned into a nightmare when our van got stuck, leaving us completely immobile and blocking the narrow road entirely. This was an incredibly frightening experience, especially as the sun began to set and darkness loomed.When we reached out to the staff for help, we were met with disappointment. The lady quickly pointed out a disclaimer about the driveway on the site but showed little empathy. While she referred us to a towing company upon request, her hurried and indifferent response added to our frustration.We ended up involving the local police and the towing company, which took several hours and incurred expenses of 300 (cash), along with damage to the rental vehicle. These costs, along with the time and stress involved, could have been avoided with proper road maintenance. The tow driver even mentioned a similar incident that occurred the previous year. If you are traveling in a larger vehicle, such as a van, we strongly advise caution, as you may face similar challenges.

The over all stay was excellent and very nice! The hosts were very helpful and informative in the instructions and expectations, but one thing i would have wanted to have were curtains for the downstairs area, would have love to put a 5 star overall rating if it wasn’t for it. The house was VERY clean and VERY comfortable as well as very spacious. We enjoyed our stay at this property and would have loved to stay longer. The scenery was breathtaking and the overall view was amazing! Everything is either in walking distance and or driving distance. And again, I would have loved to have left a 5 Star overall review but it did lack privacy in the downstairs area.

Very spacious with plenty of rooms for our 4. Recommend trying to arrive during daylight hours as the drive is very steep and a little tricky to see in the dark.

Peaceful stay in Sequoia NP

We just finished a really peaceful, relaxing week at Sequoia National Park. The house was a good base located just inside the park. The weather being unseasonably hot made the house a little warm in the afternoon thanks to the huge windows, but it was much more comfortable after the sun went down. It’s not a luxury property, but if you want a convenient location with lots of character, this is a great place.

Beautiful home!

Beautiful, rustic lodge - type property. This is the place to go to get away from it all. The Mountain views are incredible, as well as star gazing at night. There were plenty of beds and bathrooms for our family of five including 3 teenagers. Plenty of space for all. The Pizza Factory and Sequoia Coffee Co. are must- do places to go, and driving up to Sequoia National Park is wonderful as you’re already inside the gate. My only recommendation would be to fix the big pit hike in the driveway just before pulling up to the house.

Amazing Views

We found these accommodations to be just what we were looking for while staying in Sequoia. The kitchen and living area were modern and spacious with beautiful views. There was plenty of privacy. The host was friendly and easy to contact. Being inside the park was a plus as we stayed for a week and did not have to re-enter each day. It was convenient to a Visitor Center, hiking trails, points of interest, and also shopping in Three Rivers. So happy we found this place for our visit to another national park.

Our base at Sequoia National Park

The location was wonderful, just within the park. The size was great for our family of five. It could easily hold more comfortably. The beds were all comfortable as was the rest of the furniture. The kitchen was well stocked with cookware, etc. Three full bathrooms were great. The only shower heads could use updating, but we all were able to get clean. We all agreed that we would rent this house again.

Very nice comfortable home within the park!

We were very pleased with this location and amenities. Served as a comfortable home base for our hiking and fishing activities all week. Nice views right from the deck. House is very comfortable and has all the amenities you'd expect (laundry, nice kitchen, grill, good a/c, nice bathrooms, satellite tv that we didnt even turn on, wifi internet, etc). Note the park and Three Rivers does not have Verizon cell signal - AT&T only - so the wifi was an important link back home. House owner was very accessible and greeted us upon arrival. I have no hesitation booking another stay!

Sequoia National Park vacation

Our cabin was beautiful. The location is incredible. The views breathtaking! There are however a few things that need attention at the cabin. Hot water was inconsistent. That was a bit challenging. The kitchen could use a good cleaning and updating of the appliances and such. It’s an older cabin with some old charm but there’s definitely a need for some overall cleaning and upkeep. I know it’s a full time rental and it probably gets a lot of west and tear but I think upkeep is quite important.
