Rainbow beaming down into Sequoia National Park as seen from our property.
Location: Three Rivers, Sequoia, Kings Canyon, Gold Country & High Sierra, California, USA (two miles from Sequoia National Park's south entrance)
Accommodations: House, 2 Bedrooms + Other (See Description), 2 Baths (Sleeps 4-6)
Keywords: House
The Sequoia Park View House is set right on the Kaweah River, two miles from the entrance to Sequoia National Park. The spectacular views from all rooms stretch from the main fork of the Kaweah River all the way to the tops of Morro Rock and the snow capped Alta Peak in Sequoia National Park. Even the Three Rivers natives say, "WOW, WHAT A VIEW!" when they first walk through the front door.
There are two bedrooms with queen beds in each and a double sized futon in the lower river room, which has a wall of windows from the floor to the vaulted ceiling 18 feet above. The upper river room shares the same vaulted ceiling and overlooks the lower river room. It has a TV/DVD/VCR and stereo, ceiling fan, and dining table and chairs. It opens into the kitchen area, which is equipped with ceiling fan, dishwasher, microwave, refrigerator, oven/range, and all the necessary dishes, glasswares, and cooking utensils.
The lower river room opens onto the covered upper deck, which includes a ceiling fan and the outside dining table and chairs. A lower deck is seven steps down from there and is perched over gigantic boulders on the edge of the river.
The master bedroom also has a TV/DVD/VCR, a vaulted ceiling with ceiling fan, and adjoins the spacious master bath/dressing area. The hallway bathroom has a tub and shower with a Sequoia Park view as well. The guest bedroom also has a TV/VCR; however, it is not connected to the satellite receiver like the televisions in the living room and master bedroom.
There is a gas barbeque grill outside, and up a walkway you will find another deck overlooking horseshoe pits and expansive views of the foothills and mountains. The house is privately situated on one and two/thirds acres at the end of a 400' paved driveway. There is satellite TV reception and a phone for local calling, 800 numbers, and emergencies. This 2,100 square foot house was built in 1994 and has central air conditioning and heating
You will find sitting on the river deck so mesmerizing and relaxing that it will be hard to pull yourself away to enjoy all that Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks and the Three Rivers area has to offer.
NO SMOKING IS ALLOWED IN THE HOUSE!
PLEASE NOTE THAT ALL OR PART OF THE $500 RESERVATION/SECURITY DEPOSIT WILL NOT BE REFUNDED IF THE HOUSE HAS BEEN SMOKED IN OR LEFT IN AN UNUSUALLY DIRTY CONDITION OR IF THERE ARE ANY DAMAGES TO THE HOUSE OR PROPERTY.

Amazing Stay, We Will Be Back

Review Submitted: 08/16/11
My family and I spent a full week here and had the most amazing time. My two young boys loved swimming and fishing in the river. The close proximity to the park and town made our entire vacation much more relaxed and enjoyable. We just got back and I have already recommended the property to several people. The house was clean and well kept. The kitchen was perfect for cooking our own meals and the bedrooms were roomy and comfortable. Definately the icing on the cake for an overall great trip.

The most amazing element of this location is the fact that you can hear the rushing whitewater rapids at all times. You could have a great time without even leaving the house. It has a great kitchen for cooking your own meals. There are shelves and shelves of good books and many classic movies to watch in the evenings, many games available. The bedrooms are roomy and the beds are comfortable. It is very spacious and airy. The outside deck is a great place to take in the view. We saw several rafters and kayakers zoom by. The person who assisted us with check-in was very knowledgeable and helped answer all our questions about everything from which hikes to take, to where to find vegetarian friendly restaurants. We would definitely recommend it, and will stay there again as soon as we get the opportunity.

Second time stayed in this house

My family stayed 3 days in this house in Sep. 2008 and had unforgettable experience. This time I came with my parents who were visiting me from China, they loved the house and the river. The river in spring is different than in fall, this time we were not able to get into the water because the newly melted snow water was too cold and running too fast, but listening to the nature sound was so relaxing. My kids had a lot of fun screaming to the quickly passed rafting people from the deck. The house was literary 5 minutes from Sequoia park, we spent a full day in the park and didn't need to worry about long driving with seniors and juniors in the car. The house manager was very nice, each time he waited for us and led us to the house and explained everything. The owner mailed me a full refund check within a week. I have to specially THANK the owner's hospitality - he bought us a bottle of wine! My family really had a good time. Thank you very much!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Sequoia Park View House. The location of the home could not have been better. We had a gorgeous view of the mountains and just steps away from the crystal clear river. Many thanks to the owners for allowing us to enjoy their beautiful home. We will definitely recommend this property to our friends.

House on the river

The home was spacious for my family of five and very clean. The river just off the patio deck was very beautiful and relaxing. The large windows in the front room brought the outside scenery into the comforts of the indoors. Close to the Sequoia National Park for exploring and the lake for riding SeaDos. A great vacation spot with all the amenities.

My family of four and my in-laws stayed here in July. Amazing location right on the river and very convenient to the entrance of Sequoia. My two young sons (3 & 6) loved watching the rafters go down the river and playing on the porch. The house is very clean, spacious and exactly as appeared in the photos. The rental agent was very courteous and helpful. We would definitely stay here again. **Also, I completely agree with the other review re: The Gateway restaurant. Over priced and dirty.

This home was everything we expected and more! The view of the mountains and river was unforgettable! The deck is 3 boulders away from the very chilly Kaweah River. The house was very spacious and clean! Three Rivers is very quaint and the grocery had everything you need. This was the ideal vacation spot for our family of 5. Thank you for sharing your home!

My wife and I stayed at the house for close to a full week in mid September. We enjoyed our stay very much. We enjoyed the adjacency to the river, the scenery and the Three Rivers Area. The house is immaculately maintained and handy to hiking off the South Branch road. We travel quite a bit and really liked this trip. The only problem is it is a bit hard to pull away from relaxing by the river and doing something else! Jack Bernhardt & Sandy Weber Bernhardt

My husband and I stayed here to celebrate our 25th Anniversary in August. It was hard to pull ourselves away from the river to go to Sequoia Natl Park. The house is gorgeous and literally sits on the river. We ended up eating most of our meals on one of the decks on the river. Very relaxing. We hope to return again to check out the roar of the river in the spring time.

This house is one of the best vacation rentals ever! We just had a great time there for the Labor Day weekend. The house is spacious, clean, well furnished, has great views and at a great location. It just can't be better! Our kids even swam in the river. I highly recommend this place and we are definitely coming back.
