Aug 21, 2024 #### Lovely and calming home with everything close by This was the perfect base camp for our vacation to Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks. The house had everything we needed, including fun tetherball and cornhole games in the backyard. The neighborhood is quiet and the house is within walking distance to downtown Exeter's shops and restaurants. The hosts were quick to respond to all inquiries. Highly recommend! ##### Melissa M. ## Explore a world of travel with Expedia - [Lodging](?equalTargetTab=tab-0) - [Flights](?equalTargetTab=tab-1) - [Packages](?equalTargetTab=tab-2) - [Cars](?equalTargetTab=tab-3) - [Vacation Rentals](?equalTargetTab=tab-4) - [Things to Do](?equalTargetTab=tab-5) - [New 4B Home + Loft near Sequoia, EV](https://www.expedia.com/Fresno-Hotels-New-4B-Home-Loft-Near-Sequoia.h100443463.Hotel-Information) - [A Relaxing Retreat with Pool and Heated Jacuzzi near Sequoia Parks](https://www.expedia.com/Fresno-Hotels-A-Relaxing-Retreat-With-Pool-And-Heated-Jacuzzi-Near-Sequoia-Parks.h74534337.Hotel-Information) - [Charming Family House Near Sequoia Park](https://www.expedia.com/Fresno-Hotels-Charming-Family-House-Near-Sequoia-Park-W-Jacuzzi.h46383595.Hotel-Information) - [Sequoia Riverway Studio, Visalia Central Nest, 45 minutes to Sequoia Visitor](https://www.expedia.com/Fresno-Hotels-Sequoia-Riverway-Studio.h100602040.Hotel-Information) - [Spacious 4BD Home w EV charger near Sequoia Ntl Pk](https://www.expedia.com/Fresno-Hotels-Spacious-4BD-Home-W-EV-Charger-Near-Sequoia-Ntl-Pk.h83466302.Hotel-Information) - [Large Groups Sequoia Park, CA Coast Wineries, Skiing.
