The place is poorly maintained and very dirty. Old rotten carpet with insects and spider webs. Very limited and rusty sanitary facilities. We had to leave the same evening with our young children in order to find another option for the night. The host was not polite to us and we lost our vacation day on December 24 because of this bad accommodation. On top of all this the price was way too expensive and the refund procedure is very complex and we are still waiting.
Awesome gateway to Sequoia & Kings Canyon National Parks
Decided to base our visits to Sequoia & Kings Canyon National Parks from the fantastically located and charming property. Best decision ever. The cabin is extremely clean, well appointed and comfortable - and the bit of quirkiness adds to a great experience (although the shower is indeed narrow! There is no hallway to the 2nd bedroom so its either an outside exit or a walk through of the other bedroom). The internet was fast and reliable. The driveway to the cabin is demarked by a small sign visible only in the uphill direction of Hwy 245, so it might be a bit difficult to locate for the first time if driving in the downhill direction (you get good driving instructions after booking, but do rely on the given landmarks.).
Our host (Sandie) was incredibly responsive but totally unintrusive. My inquiries were responded to in a matter of minutes. We had absolutely no issues with anything not working at the cabin, so even though it is rustic, it is well maintained and highly functional. There were tons of birds and deer on the property, so morning coffee on the veranda was pretty idyllic.
It took us about 20 minutes to reach the Big Stump entrance to Sequoia / Kings Canyon National Park, which is ideal if you're interested in exploring the canyon. It's also an easier drive to the main Sequoia groves than driving from the south entrance to the park.
The property is very close to the north gate of the park about 20 minutes the area around the cabin is beautiful. The cabin is rustic but nice has everything you need and the keep extra stuff in case you forgot anything the host is very nice and checked several times to see if we needed anything we would most differently say here again
Comfortable stay close to Sequoia and Kings Canyon
Comfortable stay for our family of four, gracious host welcomed us and checked in to make sure we had everything we needed. It is a short 25 mins from Grant Grove and Sequoia is not too far either about an hour away. The place was cozy and well provisioned. Enjoyed our stay.
Amazing rustic cabin nestled in the kings canyon, it is a dream! I took my family for the 4th of July to explore the giant sequoia trees in the nearby national parks. The cabin is cozy, very clean, and complete with WiFi and fresh flowers. It is equipt with all the essentials of a home. Make sure to take a screenshot of the WiFi password, key code, and prepare your phone to use maps offline before driving into the mountains towards the cabin as the roads will provide very little connectivity. The drive is worth it! The scenery and wild life are gorgeous! The hosts are wonderful and even provide a cute guest book to sign and leave a cute memory.
Super adorable cabin with vintage touches, porch with awesome BBQ and view of nature. Nearby farm has sweet sounds of farm animals and the pond below is home to bullfrogs. Peaceful, quiet neighborhood, we loved our stay at the Kings canyon rustic cabin and our host was very friendly.
This is the best place we have been till date around Sequoia and we loved it. The host was wonderful and the cabin has everything that you need and more. The host was kind enough to keep some food as a backup as places close early around. They checked-in with us incase we need anything throughout the stay.
All EV car people, yes there is a 110 outlet outside if you need provided you have the adapters.
We would definitely come back here as this feels like our perfect vacation home around that side.
