Welcome to Hummingbird House! Set in the Sierra Nevada foothills, 25 minutes from the entrance to Kings Canyon National Park, this quiet and cozy home provides a place to rejuvenate or a base from which to explore the magnificent Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks and surrounding national forests. Featuring four distinct seasons, there is beauty year round. Enjoy the scenic drive through the Sierra Nevada foothills on your way to the house.

Outside the house is fifty acres for you to explore. Take a walk to the creek or the pond. Watch the deer and wild turkeys wander through the yard. Enjoy the zillions of hummingbirds! There is a deck in the back yard and a pellet grill for outdoor cooking.

Absolutely Fabulous
Fantastic house with wonderful views outside of not only many hummingbirds, but wild turkeys also that walked by several times a day past the many windows in the house. A couple of turkeys would even knock on the sliding glass door by the dining room with their beaks. Of course when we would move towards the door they would quickly walk away. It was fun to watch the two male turkeys try to prance and impress the 9 females that we counted. House was great as was the host.

Fantastic Place!
We stayed here several nights while visiting Sequoia and King’s Canyon National Parks, and absolutely loved it! The house was super clean, had all the amenities needed plus extras, such as a styrofoam cooler and ice packs, games, and books with info on the National Parks. The location was secluded and private, with tons of wildlife, including songbirds, turkeys, California quail (all of which came right up to bird feeders to eat!), a gray fox, and of course hummingbirds. The Wi-Fi worked great, and we also had pretty good cell service with Verizon. The beds were super comfy, and the shower had great water pressure. We also loved the provided breakfast of farm-fresh eggs, fresh fruit, and a selection of juices and cereal. We really enjoyed having dinner outside on the patio to enjoy the nice weather and wildlife. Joni was very nice and personable and left lots of information on where to get food, park information, and how to navigate the back roads with the park road closures (from winter damage due to historical snowfall). We love to travel and this was one of our favorite places we’ve stayed ever! If/when we are back in the area, we will definitely come back to Hummingbird House!
