Overall, this was an excellent stay in every way. The room not only contained the amenities listed, but also some items relevant to a visit to Sequoia, including pamphlets and booklets with lots of information on the parks and bug spray (which I forgot to bring). Victoria was prompt in answering my questions and was just an overall great host. 10/10 would stay here again
Fantastic home with beautiful yard, pool and hot tub. The owner is very kind and thoughtful. It's a perfect place for one person. I hope to stay there again!
In a word, this stay was excellent! Victoria is an incredible host...she is inviting and ensures her guest is comfortable and has everything they need. The studio is clean and private but is also situated beautifully on the property grounds next to a green area, a large oak tree and pool not to mention a stunning historical home. Thank you for a wonderful visit and experience!
I've stayed in numerous rentals over the years and this is easily one of my best experiences. The host was incredibly thoughtful with the considerate amenities she had provided upon my arrival and was very easy to communicate leading up and through my stay. The room itself is perfect for one person, and is attached separately from the house so I was able to come and go as I pleased. And the property is amazing. I was able to easily work from home in the backyard and enjoy the patio, pool, hot tub, yard, etc. It's ideal to still be in a town but also right outside Sequoia National Park. She also voluntarily offered to let me keep my puppy out and about her yard to play with her two dogs while I went to explore the park and without having to worry about him being in a kennel for too long. Can't recommend it enough!
I had a great experience staying here. Vicki is very thoughtful and accommodating, and the location was great. The building and town history are fascinating, it’s a great place for a short vacation!

About the host
Your host
I love to travel and have been out of the country for a few years. I knew I wanted to end up in a quaint town. Exeter reminds me so much of my life in Europe. It truly is the hidden gem of the Central Valley.
Why they chose this property
I live in the original hospital in Exeter. Built in 1913. Of course, it looks nothing like a hospital today. You have to see it to believe. Stain glass windows, craftsman architecture. You will never see another house like this one.
