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.
