The babbling brook next to the restaurant was beautiful, and it is the closest hotel to the Sequoia National Park entrance. The hotel rooms are quaint and homely. Parking can be a bit of a difficulty during night hours as it is a popular place for the bar. I would heavily recommend enjoying the waffles from Sequoia Coffee Co. and the pizza from Pizza Factory. Both are about 15 minutes out, but also delicious.

Disliked: Cleanliness

Room had overpowering bad musty smell. So bad. Needs new carpet or a dehumidifier or something. No where to walk dog(all gravel, no outdoor area except parking lot), I ended up going behind lodge next door where they had a nice “backyard” area. Parking lot for rooms is very small and right at the back door for the restaurant so the dumpster/trash stank. Restaurant was delicious but expensive. Would eat there again but would not stay at the lodge due to room smelling so bad. Very convenient location to Sequoia Natl Park

My family spent one night here. The room and bathroom were very clean. The bed eas extremely comfortable. I usually have a difficult time sleeping with two hip replacements but this was like home to me. I left something in the room when we left and the house keeper brought it out to my car for me. The food was great, the staff was excellent. I’ll definitely be back.

We expected the property to be closer the the park and were surprised that it was over an hours drive from our destination. The restaurant was great. The staff was pleasant but not helpful. We were ready to go at 6:30 but the restaurant/office did not open until 8:00 so we stayed longer than anticipated to check out. Room was clean, warm and comfortable. Beautiful stream side location.
