THE SPACE::
Walk through the front door and find a gorgeous view of the mountains all around!
Side doors lead out to the back patio where you can find your own private backyard seating areas, outside dining table and bbq and a propane firepit. 
Take a stroll on the property and head down the path to access the river. The walk is a short distance from the house. We are also only 20 minutes from the amazing trails at the end of south fork (like lady bug trails).

THE HOME::
Our home is located in a 6 acre parcel nested in between trees and gorgeous river. The property is full of wildlife, birds, butterflies, wild flowers and wild berries. It is the perfect spot for a family to get into nature and recharge.The kitchen has full size appliances, white cabinets, quartz countertop and a walnut bar table with four bar stools.

Outside space is so serene and peaceful.
The whole backyard is  surrounded my mountains views. You can hear the river from the cabin. There is a fire pit, ample sitting area with outside dinning table and a bbq. It is the perfect spot  to unwind from your day at the park.

RIVER::
THE RIVER AND THE 2 DECKS::
You will find a beautiful trail that lead you to our picturesque river with endless boulders!! There you will find two large decks over the river and sitting areas along the river. This area is absolutely breathtaking! The Southfork River is beautiful all year round. Like all natural rivers the  Rivers has high seasons and low.  In the spring and early summer it is high and fast moving. As summer wanes the river slows and lower but never completely dies up. We are fortunate to have water year round so you will always enjoy the soothing sounds of the river. Children must be chaperone at all time especially near the river.  Please be cautious of current, especially during winter and early spring. (The 2 decks are located at the river area. The river area where the decks are is just a short stroll  from the house and shared with only one other home)

AROUND
The Sequoias and surrounding Sierra Nevada mountains are some of the best that California has to offer. Centrally located, the house is about twenty minutes drive to the main entrance to Sequoia National Park station and both Slick Rock recreation areas and King’s Canyon National Park, and just a 10 minutes from Three Rivers town restaurants and shops. A nature lovers paradise, there are plenty of areas to hike, bike, fish, and swim; and during the summer months, world-class white-water rafting and kayaking. Lake Kaweah, surrounded by the golden hills of California’s lower Sierra Nevada mountains, is just five miles downstream and a hot spot for boating and fishing.

LOCATION::
Three Rivers, California. Nearest Airport: Yosemite/Fresno International (1 hr/70 miles)

BEST TIME TO VISIT:: Year round

DISCLOSURE:

Beautiful Spot
Srey was incredibly responsive and informative. The retreat was spotless. Beautiful, but remote, location. Would be best if you plan on hanging out there for a good chunk of your trip - even not considering a line to get into the park the retreat is >1hr from General Sherman etc...

OK but wouldn't come back
It was terribly difficult to find. Need better signage. Couldnt turn on the heater unless you disarmed the smoke detector. Bathroom faucets are backwards, toilet paper is behind you. What is that about? Sorry, but we have vacation rental property and I am much more particular about the experience our guests have. The water and decks in back were beautiful. The space was very clean.

Great place to enjoy Sequoia!
There are several things that made this a really great experience. First is Srey, the property owner/manager. I have stayed in several VRBO’s over the years, and she is by far the best communicator I’ve interacted with. In addition, she provided a wealth of information about the area - restaurants, markets, things to do - that saved us a lot of time. The house itself is very clean, well maintained, and in a wooded, private setting. The nearby property, which Srey also owns, was not an issue. There were people staying there while we were there; we never heard or saw them. The river is a short walk away and can be heard from the house. The internet is good which was a pleasant surprise given the remote location. I look forward to staying here again.

Perfect for Sequoia
We rented this is to have a place to sleep and hangout between our adventures in Sequoia National Park. This property is less than 15 min from the visitors center. The cabin is clean, the beds are comfortable and the property is beautiful! I highly recommend staying here. I advise checking in while it’s still daytime because the location is hard to find.
