Excellent B&B
Branded Calf is a treasure of a B&B. Hostess Connie is a treasure trove of advice about the area and serves a wonderful breakfast. Our room was comfortable and spacious. B&B is only 30 minutes from entrance to Kings Canyon NP. Highly Recommend!

What a dream find! Connie (the host) is so great and knowledgeable! Her breakfast each morning is perfect (veggie omelet or scramble with coffee, OJ, biscuits and fresh fruit). There are adorable dogs on property, and a TON of hummingbirds! Highly recommend this absolute GEM of a place!

Amazing!
I don't think it gets any better. Location, Connie's food, 204 acres of bliss, cleanliness, size of room and bathroom and common areas. Was a great two day stay in Connie's place. Both mornings we had delicious breakfast served at 7:30. It's about 30 minutes to Grant Grove Village and Fresno. If it's hot, go for a morning walk on the property when the temperature is perfect. Your stay will basically be the emobidment of the American experiment. You'll enjoy the beautiful nature and eat breakfast with other guests from all over the world. We will definitely be back.

Connie was a most convivial host. She was always friendly and helpful. Her knowledge and advise for navigating the Parks was outstanding. Her house is spacious, with a lot to do, and our room was huge and well appointed. To top it off, she served us a lovely breakfast each morning which set a great tone for our day.

Great B&B near Kings Canyon and the Sequoia Forest
Great B&B! Very clean, very nice. Great breakfasts. Connie is a great hostess; we enjoyed talking with her and the other guests at breakfast. She is very knowledgeable about the area and gave us a couple of great tips for places to see. My sister joined us for one night -- she was not on the original reservation -- Connie accomodated her in our room and for breakfast at no extra cost. Highly recommend this place.

What a phenomenal place to stay. If you’re looking for place nearby look no further. Connie is extremely warm and welcoming and knowledgeable about the area. She also makes the best breakfasts, which is incredible way to start a long day of hiking! The place is on a beautiful property with friendly dogs only 30 mins away from the entrance to Kings Canyon. I would absolutely stay here anytime I’m in the area and cannot recommend it enough. I was also able to purchase an amazing wooden hiking staff that her son made. Connie I got it through TSA!
