Great house...but heater didn't work at all
I wasn't sure what to put overall, cause house is really nice, clean and looks exactly like on photos. We booked 2 nights and when we've arrived late in the evening - heater didn't work at all and as it's November - it's been 59-60 degrees inside all the time. So nothing could be done in the first night and no guarantee it could have been second before the second one. So we've left after first night. Host has been responsive and agreed to do a refund for us. But in general, it's kind of a bummer, cause we had weekend plans and really loved a house, but it's hard to enjoy when you need to be in a jacket inside (also we had small kid and elderly parents with us which unleveled the uncomfortable levels)

Perfect!
This was our 3rd visit to Sequoia NP but our first time staying at this property. This location is very convenient to the amenities of Three Rivers and an easy short drive to the park entrance. The home was clean, tastefully decorated, and had everything we needed. Communication with the host was easy and prompt. We had an issue with the coffee maker our first morning (we need it to function!), and Candice resolved it immediately!!! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would choose this property again.

Family vacation to the Sequoias
My family and I really enjoyed our stay. The house had everything we needed, including a washer and dryer which was a big plus. The kitchen and laundry room were very updated.The neighborhood is quiet and everyone in the area is very friendly. The host was easy to reach, and communicated everything clearly. Because this house is so close to the park entrance, it is further out from big box stores. The closest Walmart/Target is in Visalia about 30 minutes away. Cell service is spotty, but the wifi worked well.

Perfect Sequoia Getaway
We had the best time. The kids loved the bunk beds and it was wonderful to have such a nice home base from which to explore the two National Parks.

Worst Stay Ever – Avoid at All Costs!
If you value your sanity and comfort, STAY AWAY from this disaster of a rental. This place was a complete nightmare from the moment we arrived. First, the air conditioning was completely non-functional. With temperatures soaring to 100F outside and a stifling 86F inside, we were left baking for three agonizing hours waiting for a repairman. He temporarily fixed the issue. Some of us, who are sensitive to heat and have heart conditions, had to flee to a nearby hotel to survive the first night. To add insult to injury, the WIFI was dead on arrival, and most of our cell phones had zero service (we were a group of six). Only one phone had any signal, which we used to reach the owner. The bathroom sinks were a horror show, with water pooling and refusing to drain for what felt like an eternity. The owner had the gall to offer us a reservation cancellation, which we accepted, thinking it meant a refund for the first miserable day and night. We lost half a day of our vacation dealing with this chaos. Here's where things went from bad to worse: the owner re-booked our reservation without bothering to notify us. VRBO sent an email about the new payment due, but guess what? We couldn't see it because the WIFI WASN'T WORKING! On the third day, we returned from the park to find ourselves locked out in 105F heat. The owner had changed the door code because we hadn't paid – payment we couldn't make without internet access! Frequent travelers beware: avoid this house like the plague

Very cute place
It was a very cute house, pretty clean over all. Had most needed items for a house. It was cozy and inviting. I liked it here was 25 mins from the wedding we were attending. The host was friendly and easy to communicate with. The beds were so soft it was a problem for all of us as it made it difficult to sleep. Also notice in the bathroom if the window was open there were lots of small flying bugs coming in. Over all happy with our stay and would definitely recommend this place.

Nicely remodeled/quiet neighborhood
All in all, we were very happy with our stay here. Our biggest complaint was with the cleaning service, which can be rectified, I am sure. We did end up having to buy our own toilet paper! Once again, a cleaning service problem. We would stay there again.

Great property with great amenities
This place is back in a quiet neighborhood off the main road. It is far enough away that you dont have lots of traffic, but you can sit out on the private deck area and hear the river. We loved the great kitchen for cooking. They didn’t skimp on the cheapest appliances like some places do. We loved our stay and would greatly recommend this place to anyone looking.

Beautiful in three rivers
Our family enjoyed the layout of this home. Comfortable beds. Plenty of kitchen items. Short drive to Sequoia park, grocery, dining. Gave a 4 because of issue with coffee maker (we are big coffee drinkers) that i brought to owner's attention but never heard back about as well as a bug infestation in the bathroom. Overall it was an excellent stay at this home.
