Dennison House is your private wooded retreat on 15 acres only two miles from the Giant Sequoia National Monument at 2800-feet elevation. Surrounded on three sides by oak woodland, it has a spectacular view to the north of Dennison Peak and the snow-covered Sierras. A private wildlife and fishing pond is a short walk from the house and there are 15 acres of woodland and creeks for rambling with your dogs and kids.
The 2900 sq ft house is recently refurbished and tastefully furnished with rustic country antiques and cool cowboy poster art. Cozy up to the wood-burning stove and play games, enjoy our DVD collection (stocked with cowboy movies and kids' favorites), or read a book from our fiction collection. The house has 2 queen bedrooms, 1 double bedroom, 1 bedroom with 2 twins and 1 bedroom with 1 twin. The living room has 2 queen sleeper sofas.
Drive up the mountain and hike or ski to untouristed ancient Giant Sequoia groves and idyllic mountain lakes at Balch Park or Ponderosa or use the house as a hub for some of the best bicycle and motorcycle touring roads in the Sierras. Bring your horses for great backcountry riding or rent horses from our local Ranches or Pack Stations. Our mountain region is a mecca for rock climbers, snow mobilers, back country horseman, and hang gliders.
There are many opportunities for fishing on Success Lake, the roaring Tule River and beautiful mountain lakes. Water sport enthusiasts will enjoy local Lake Success for jet skiing, boating and water skiing. Our area also has Eagle Mountain Casino for gaming, and River Island Country Club for golfing. Naturalists and Bird watchers have wildlife wiewing galore in our untouched part of the Sierra. Roadsides, pastures and woodlands come alive in the Spring with native wildflowers and blossoming Redbuds and Dogwoods.

We are nearby the quaint untouched village of Springville with lovely gift shops and diverse eateries from downhome to upscale. Go for a tour of Tulare county's many murals in our historic old west towns or drive the Blossom Trail in April-May for miles of Apple blossoms in local orchards.
