Great stay
The property was very clean and comfortable. Mark was very thoughtful to text me on the day of checkin to make sure I copied down the instructions. Mobile network was a problem, which he warned me in advance, so we came prepared. The recommendation to hike to salt creek was the best. My family enjoyed the walk and kids had fun in the nice little creek. The property is in a perfect location to drive up the mountain to see the giant groove. Overall it was a beautiful and a pleasant stay.

Wonderful, close to the NP, house
The house was clean, stocked with basics, also had snacks and a bottle of wine for us! The living area was great to watch movies with my family. There were 2 bathrooms, which made it easier for us to all get ready. There were deer and California Bluebirds that were on the property, especially in the am. The stars at night were so visible due to not a lot of street lights. We loved our stay at this house!

Excellent Location
Traveled from Sarasota, FL for a family vacation to Sequoia National Park and Kings Canyon. Stayed at the Blue Jay and had an enjoyable experience. The Blue Jay was in an excellent location, only a 15 minute drive, to the entrance of the park. Mark was very responsive when we requested extra supplies as well as instructions to check in. The house/property was well maintained and in a quiet neighborhood. We had plenty of towels and the kitchen was well stocked. We were also provided with shampoo, conditioner, and body wash in each bathroom. The beds and pillows were so comfortable! This was greatly appreciated after long days of hiking. Thank you for making our vacation amazing!

Definitely a Return Place.
Our only difficulty was the street sign name change was a bit confusing, especially arriving after dark because there are no lights at the cross road exchange. Next time we know to bring more groceries as we didn't see any places to shop for them nearby. But the house had everything we needed except: more blankets, we wanted to get cozy on the couch will watching TV & didn't want to keep turning the heater up & couldn't use the fire place. Also, an Air Fryer would be useful for faster meal preparation.

Your home was excellent!!! It was very clean and comfortable unfortunately we did not to get to spend too much time there we got there late at night and left pretty early in the morning….but we did have 8 deer in the front yard in the morning which was pretty cool. I would definitely recommend staying there to anyone who wants to stay in that area.

Would stay again!
Although we only had a brief stay for one evening, it was definitely a place we could have stayed longer. Big COMFY couch to relax following a busy day of hiking, three comfy bedrooms. Host left us snacks/wine which we didn't use but were greatly appreciated. Short drive to restaurants/brewery. Close to southern park entrance and a definite recommendation if you are visiting Sequoia National Park!

We had a great time at this quiet retreat in Three Rivers. Our host was great at providing local knowledge about the area and let us into the property early too. Patio dinners were a highlight as were morning coffees watching the sun rise over the mountain.
