Great little home away from home

This cute cabin was a great little home away from home. Close to the parks and plenty of room. Peggy was a wonderful hostess, very attentive and provided everything we needed to make our stay pleasant and comfortable. Rustic comfort at its best. Definitely recommend!

Clean property and gracious hosts

Overall the property was very clean and the hosts were great and very accommodating. Kitchenware was very dated and many items could not be used due to poor quality. Drive to Sequoia was at least 1.5 hours.

Cozy, natural and well equipped! Our first impression as we pull up in to the parking space was “WOW”!! The views of the valley and sunset from the property itself are a treat! The accommodation was perfect for a family of 5 (grandparents and kids included) along with our dogs. All rooms were well equipped and the walkin closet is more than enough to store and change clothes! It does give you a country feel! The resident quails and bunnies will occasionally greet you and will scamper as they hear you walk out the door!We really enjoyed sipping the complimentary bottle of red wine!

Peggy, our host, is awesome and very responsive. We had instructions ahead of time and were able to find and enter our location smoothly. A few quirks, since the location is remote and surrounded by darkness, is that our kids were a little freaked out that one of the bedrooms has a connected dark storage room, separated by a drape, which scared them at night. A door would be preferable. Also, since the location is remote, people should be ready for ants, spiders, and rodents. Otherwise the beds were comfortable, and we used the kitchen to make food.

Peggy was excellent to communicate with and the check in was extremely easy. Our biggest concern was the description of air conditioning in the listing…it was a swamp cooler. It was definitely not air conditioning. There was also some lingering smells from the laundry and cleaning products used, which probably wouldn’t be an issue for a lot of folks, but I have an extreme sensitivity to smell (side effect of Covid), and it did cause some issues.

We stayed 3 nights in June. The host, Peggy and Mike are very nice and responsive throughout our stay. Bedrooms and bathroom are clean which is a plus for me. There’re ants, spiders and other bugs inside the house but it’s understandable given the remote and rural area. Dining option is very limited so be sure you prepare food prior. We didn’t use the outdoor grill but hope the host cover it to avoid dust since it’s a very nice grill. Kitchen has everything you need for simple meals. There’re a complimentary bottle of wine plus a bag of ice in the freeze which we found convenient and thoughtful of the host. Overall, we enjoyed the stay.

Cozy and quiet retreat close to Sequoia NP

Easy check-in, property is secluded but also a quick drive away from Sequoia NP which made it a great place to relax after spending the day exploring the park. Photos are accurate and property is clean, beds are comfortable, and has a spacious common area. Appreciated the complimentary wine upon arrival - will be sure to reserve a tasting next time!

As any normal person I was skeptical that it was going to be as pictured but I was not disappointed. Everything was amazing and beautiful! The area is great and the distance to get out into nature and reconnect was within reach here. I felt safe with my three small kids and didn't feel embarrassed with their rowdiness because it was just our family enjoying the sun and nature during the day and being bathed in stars at night. Thank you to the host, Peggy for her great hospitality and supplying all the things needed for a great stay. Pet friendly!!

National Park Adventure

This property was a great spot for our visit to Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks. From the location we could explore each park and relax in comfort in the evenings. The space was great for our family of 4 (2 adults, 2 kids) with room and beds to spare. Check-in and check-out was also seamless.

King's Canyon Getaway

If you are looking for a vacation home close to King's Canyon that is not located within the park, this is a great option. About a 20 minute drive back and forth and the experience of staying more remote than rooms in the park. Bear Mountain pizza was awesome!
