About this property
A Very Sweet Retreat: The S Fork River is flowing. You can see, hear & touch it!
You will enjoy yourselves in this spacious 2 story home with mountain views in the friendly neighborhood of Cherokee Oaks. We are only one mile from Lake Kaweah and you will find it is a lovely drive thru our town and along the Kaweah River to the Sequoia/Kings Canyon National Park entrance. Included is the South Fork River that flows behind the house. The rivers and streams flow because of all the rain and snow melt we have each winter in the Mountains that house the giant Sequoias. Don’t miss out. This home away from home has a spacious fully equipped kitchen and all new appliances including custom kitchen cabinets and a beautiful granite topped island for those who really enjoy cooking. The back patio houses a BBQ for enthusiasts as an option to the stove. Table too. There is a built-in entertainment center beneath a gorgeous wood and wrought iron staircase which takes you to the balcony area where you can sit and relax and look over the railing to the living room below. There are two spacious master suites, one upstairs and one down. A laundry room is also available. The upstairs master bedroom opens to an expansive deck that is great place to sit back and gaze out over views of the surrounding mountains. Seasonally you can enjoy the sound of the South Fork River and the stars are out in masses on a clear dark night. The large downstairs second bedroom with patio access is also very nice and comfortable. The third bedroom is off the master bedroom, smaller but suitable for children or a couple, we have two air mattress for extra guest upon request, three bathrooms, everyone has plenty of room to get ready for a day or evening of activities. When the rain has arrived in the fall and the South Fork River is flowing we see/hear the river's mighty flow. The sound of the river will delight you while enjoying time on either of the patios. Think Rain! Make this your Sweet Retreat and experience the open spaces this luxurious home away from home offers. Book now!!

This is a beautiful location and home. We enjoyed our stay and would come again. Housekeeping is not the best, and hope that they improve.The host was very helpful and responded quickly to our needs.
River in the back yard you are in nature 15 min to sequoia national park perfect for day hiking and coming back to a comfortable home to relax . Home is spacious and comfortable.
We loved our time at this beautiful property! The hosts were communicative and made sure we had everything we needed. The home was well equipped and comfortable. We loved coming back here after a long day of hiking at the Sequoias! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

The pictures make you think this place is the best VRBO you'll ever comes across. It will be.
Esther and Linda were super prompt anytime we had a question. There's a river right outside the home. Yes, a river. The inside of the home is amazing. They have plenty of beds and the entire home is completely modern. The bathrooms have decked out showers and the living room is super spacious for hanging out. In the morning, we made coffee and just sat outside taking in the river. Sequoia is really close by. If I ever come to Sequoia again with a group, this is where I'm staying.
Gorgeous home & beautiful area made wonderful fall family getaway!
This home is stunning! It is also perfectly clean, very comfortable, and was better stocked than any other rental we’ve ever stayed at. The bathrooms have plenty of toiletries, there are games and a karaoke machine and the open chef’s kitchen has everything you could ever need! We loved the sounds of the river and enjoyed our morning coffee outside each morning. The location to the park is great. We definitely plan on returning!
This home has tons of potential, needs upgraded mattresses, and the living room furniture is not comfortable. River access has loose stepping stones. home is very well equipped and very easy access to Sequoia.
We had a great stay in Three Rivers home. It was more spacious than expected ,had sitting room for everyone to watch TV, and comfortable beds. We would recommend staying at this beautiful home for exploring Sequoia National Park. Linda and Esther thank you for allowing us to stay at your home and thank you for your black book on maximizing exploring the park.
The house was absolutely outstanding! We loved our stay there so much. Such a laid back, cool vibe to the house and whole surrounding area. Linda (our host) was so responsive and nice. Will definitely stay there again!
We had a great stay! The house is beautiful, spacious and relaxing after long days of hiking. Very clean with any amenity you wish. It is located just a few miles from the SNP entrance. From there we reserved shuttles to take us into the park and used the shuttles inside the park to get to the trails. Loved it!
Stayed at this rental property with a handful of friends for the weekend and we all had a blast! The property was a short drive into town and very well kept. It was spacious and had everything we needed for a relaxing weekend away, such as items for cooking, sleeping, lounging, etc. We all loved it and would definitely stay here again! Thanks for being such great hosts :)
Beautiful home with peaceful river views and natural light. Perfect for a family vacation. Awesome family room; patio for yoga. You can tell the owners and management co take great care of this home. Well design house!
This house has a great floor plan both downstairs and upstairs.
Everything is well thought out, the owners touch with not only their friendliness but also with their generosity and helpfulness, takes the overall experience to a different level of satisfaction and joy.
It’s hard to walk-in to this beautiful place and not instantly recognize the love and care that have been given even to the smallest details. We simply loved the house and the experience and looking forward to go back asap.
If you want comfort and convenience to the National Park, this is a great choice. As there are not a lot of amenities in the area we we glad to have a house for cooking meals and spreading out. Really enjoyed sitting out back and watching and listening to the river.
Loved the location of the home. The little river that runs by the backyard made it so relaxing. The home was beautiful and had plenty of space for a big group. The only downside was that the upstairs heater did not warm up very well. Other than that, we had a great experience and would love to go back.
The house is spacious clean and close to the river. The river in the back yard was dry due to drought but the main river was very close. The kitchen was big and spacious my mom loved her bday get away. Thank you
We enjoyed staying here with our adult children and their friends while we visited kings canyon and sequoia national parks. It was spacious with ample seating and bedding and bathrooms and accommodated us very well. The light situation was a little stressful as we wanted to follow the instructions and be respectful and it was hard to find the outdoor light switches and sometimes they would come on on a timer maybe? and we’d have to turn them off again. Overall a wonderful place for our family to enjoy being together. Thank you!

About the host

Why they chose this property
This home is an unusual visual experience. Hi ceilings and overlooking balconies with an upstairs outside deck. We are located close to the Kaweah River Lake where you can swim and rent boats. It is a pleasant close drive to the entrance to the Sequoia National Park as well as the center of Three Rivers for easy shopping and eating experiences.
What makes this property unique
We have a fully equipped kitchen for all cooking needs. There is a large parking lot for off road parking. The river roars seasonally out off the backyard and that is a wonderful sound enhancing the mountain experience with decks to enjoy the outdoors and beautiful mountain views. We are located in a quiet neighborhood.
