    This is a beautiful guest house tucked away along the South Fork of the Kaweah River. It's lovely hearing the river, which is just a short walk away. We had everything we needed for our few days visiting Sequoia National Park, with a comfortable bed, well-outfitted kitchen, and cushioned patio furniture to relax outside and listen to the river. The host was exceptionally responsive. Definitely recommend for a secluded, comfortable getaway!

    It was the perfect size for my family of 4. It was nice and quiet. We had a good time and the river behind the house just hearing it alone was peaceful.

    The cottage was perfect for what we wanted, which was a quiet place away from the city. We took walks with our dog in the mornings down to the river. The river creek was literally in their backyard! The nature setting was a beautiful site to see. The cottage inside was nice and cozy. The only drawback was the no oven or microwave, but it wasn't a biggie, we managed. The owner Lada was great at communicating and would check on us daily. Definitely going back on my next break.

    The property is very close to Sequoia National Park, which is what we wanted. We traveled as a family of five (2 parents, 3 kids), and the space was perfect! The kids loved the loft, and my husband and I had our own room to relax in. Everything we needed was there so we could cook or meals in the morning and evening when we weren't at the National Park. The air conditioners worked well and kept us comfortable when it was the mid 90s outside. The space was very clean and cozy and we enjoyed our time.

    Nice spot, it worked well for me, my husband and two teens. The south fork of the Kaweah river is right in the backyard, and it was nice to wade in the river and cool off on a hot July day. The a/c did a good job of cooling off the house and loft bedroom. Easy access to Sequoia National Park. I think it would also be really cozy in the winter since there are two wood burning stoves. Note that this is a cottage that shares the property with a larger main house that is a separate rental. I wasn’t aware of that and was surprised and a bit confused on arrival, but it was my mistake for not reading the property description carefully enough. However, the cottage is far enough away from the other house that it’s plenty private and it has its own separate river access. We would stay here again for sure. Check in was easy with a lock box and the host was very communicative.

    Located off the beaten track by a river, this cabin had three queen sized beds making it very comfortable for three senior ladies. It is also about 30 minutes from Sequoia National Park, and a great place to return to after a long day.

    The property is spacious, beautiful, very close to the river, and close to the entrance of Sequoia National Park. Check in was very easy. Owner communicates really fast. The place has two fireplaces, a full kitchen - equipped with what you need. The location is very relaxing as you can hear the sound of the river while you eat breakfast and while you sleep. Will definitely go back.

    Stayed while on a trip to explore the Sequoia Forrest. The location was perfect. Nestled away from main roads you feel very secluded. Great place to unwind and enjoy nature. Lots of small wildlife so perfect for nature lovers. The cabin had everything we needed. Was exactly as pictured and very clean. Would definitely stay again.
