We had an amazing stay here! Chris was super helpful and responsive, and the house itself was clean, beautiful, and so comfortable. The pool and hot tub were so much fun, and the views were absolutely incredible. It was the perfect place for our trip. Highly recommend!

Nice place with great views
Great property in a good location. The house is beginning to show some signs of aging, as is to be expected, but no deal breakers. Would recommend anyone visiting the Sequoia area to stay here.
We had a great multi family stay at this house. The views were amazing. House had everything we needed. Everyone had a fantastic time including the kids, adults, and dogs. Easy checkin and communication. No complaints!
The perfect family and friends paradise retreat - amazing house and views
A fabulous property, exactly as described (if not better), fully kitted and with the most amazing views! The pool, hot tub and deck/grill were in constant use and loved by all. Host Chris couldn’t have been more helpful with any questions. Overall, a complete ‘real deal’ - wouldn’t hesitate to book again.
Excellent Location to Sequoia (with spectacular views)
It was me, my husband, three boys (6-12) and our two mothers/grandmothers. The house is just 6 miles from Sequoia entrance! The views of the house are amazing. The pictures dont do it justice, specifically the front! We watched all sunsets from the front porch! The owners are amazing and respond almost instantly! It was a great house for our Sequoia trip!
Property was beautiful, well appointed, the views are incredible. We loved the pool in the hot tub. Lots of space to spread out. Chris was very responsive and helpful, he even heated the pool up for us ahead of time to make sure it was comfortable. Would definitely stay again!
Breathtaking views and amazing property. Minor details on updates to the house but overall well worth it and great to experience the area. BEAUTIFUL PROPERTY!!! Host was very helpful on questions and very accommodating.

A fantastic property to enjoy nature and lspend time with loved ones. I was lucky enough to celebrate my birthday here with family and friends and everyone had a great time and complimented the house and location. Host was exceedingly helpful and prompt with answering questions and solving issues, I would 100% stay here again. Even my dad had a great time and he rarely smiles!!!! Thank you Chris for a great stay!
This property was so easy to check in and out, and the property was perfect for our student council retreat. The big deck outside was perfect to gather and plan. The host was extremely quick to respond and I do t think it could have gone any better.
