Our “cabin” was supposed to have 2 queen sized beds and a bunk bed. The cabin was actually a 10x12 storage barn with a separate communal bathroom/shower building. The queen bed was a mattress in a loft above the rest of the room accessible by a rickety ladder. The A/C had been left off so the shed was very hot when we checked in. I had to climb the ladder to adjust the A/C to max. Took a shower and discovered the shower floor was a made of concrete pavers and gravel. . We decided to eat dinner at Gina’s . Limited menu. Ordered 2 salads , they gave us the wrong ones. We sent them back and waited 15 minutes to get the correct salads. Observed our waitress take the trash to the dumpster and grab a smoke break just before returning with our salads. Overall not a great experience

Glamping…. In a tough shed….bed was comfortable. Shed had tv, and ac, and did have two queen beds, but the “stairs” to reach the loft bed was really a ladder which made the second bed unusable for us. No water in the room and toilet facilities were shared. There is only one restroom/shower shared by all guests. Was a bit shocked when I walked in to find a person of the other sex using the same facilities. Locking door to facilities was unlocked when I used them in the middle of the night because the door does not lock automatically and other guests did not lock it when they left. Management offers free earplugs because the sheds are close to the busy road. It is close to the national parks and so is very convenient. This was not what we thought we reserved, but stayed one night of the two we reserved and payed for because we wanted to visit the national parks. We left early to stay the night elsewhere at a motel with water and plumbing in room……

The room was very small, just big enough to put a Queen bed, a chair and a night stand. For the price that I paid, I could not complain much. It is only about 20-mile away from Kings Canyon National Parks entrance so it is convenient. It is right next to the Highway 180 so there are a lot of traffics. You would be waked very early in the morning if you are a light sleeper.

The chalet was a glorified tool shed, but the pictures and description can kind of tell you that. It was peaceful outside by the little stream. The bed was as hard as a rock and it was bright in the morning because of no curtains. We ate dinner there, it was ok but we didn’t expect much. The staff were nice but not open the next day.

Had to switch from cabin to a hotel room because the cabin door had no handle. We also decided we preferred the private bathroom rather than a shared one used for the cabins. Food was good with nice portions.
