About this property
Moon River Cottage • Loft • River Access • Fireplace • Peaceful • Near Sequoia
.Take it easy at this unique and tranquil getaway with direct river access. A magical healing place to relax by the beautiful river, enjoy a picnic and BBQ during the day, kickback and stargaze at night. This quiet river Guest House is close to restaurants, shops, grocery store, art studios and only 15 min from the entrance of Sequoia National Park as well as Kaweah Lake. Activities available nearby: rent a boat, kayak, jet ski, fishing, hiking, river rafting, mountain biking, horseback riding.
The space
The 5 acre property offers plenty of room to spread out and enjoy the peaceful mountain and river views. Kaweah River runs through back side most of the year.
The house is very clean and ready for you to occupy. The spacious master bedroom has a queen size bed and a wood burning fireplace. The loft upstairs has 2 queen size beds, making it a great fit for couples, families, or a small group of friends.
Cozy living room with wood burning fireplace and smart TV.
The kitchen is stocked with dishes , pots and pans, stove , refrigerator, toaster, microwave, basic cooking spices, coffee, tea, and sugar will also be provided, everything you need for simple, home-cooked meals.
Step outside to enjoy the deck, outdoor seating, BBQ, and beautiful mountain and river views. Guests love spending their days hiking, fishing, kayaking, or exploring Sequoia, then coming back to the cottage to unwind, play board games, and stargaze at night.
Extras: Washer and dryer, board games, plush towels and linens, shampoo and conditioner
This is a nature-focused property surrounded by trees and wildlife, so it’s ideal for guests who appreciate a more natural, rustic mountain environment rather than a city-style setting. For the right guests, it’s a calm, magical place to reset and reconnect.

NATURE & WILDLIFE
You’re staying in mountains and wilderness. Wildlife such as mice, bats, snakes, bears, and insects is part of the environment.
We blow leaves and clean before each stay, but dust, pine needles and wildlife return quickly. This is part of the mountain environment.
Perfect for nature lovers — not suited for those seeking a fully city-like experience. This is a truly unique retreat, a dream. We think you'll find the setting truly special and magical.
We also do professional monthly pest control
Keep doors and windows closed (or only open screened windows) to avoid unwanted visitors.
You are responsible at all times for your children and other guests. Please be responsible and safe around water! All children must be accompanied by an adult in the backyard and around the riverbed area. Children can be easily swept up and taken down the river by the current.

About the host
Hosted by ladan
We believe time in nature restores the mind and spirit — and we created this space for others to experience the same peace we feel here. We take pride in providing a clean, comfortable, peaceful stay
Why they chose this property
We fell in love with Three Rivers for its peaceful beauty, wild nature, and gentle sound of the river. It feels secluded yet convenient — near markets, shops, art studios, and the entrance to Sequoia National Park. It’s the kind of place where mornings are quiet, nights sparkle with stars, and nature is always present.
What makes this property unique
Moon River Cottage is a rare find in Three Rivers: a cozy guest house with true private river access on a peaceful 5-acre property, just a short drive from the entrance to Sequoia National Park. Guests love that it feels tucked away in nature, yet it’s still close to restaurants, shops, and local art studios.
The cottage has a warm, cabin-style feel with a wood-burning fireplace, a loft with two queen beds, and plenty of space for couples, small families, or a few friends traveling together. Outside, you can relax on the deck, listen to the river, enjoy a BBQ, or stargaze at night under the clear mountain sky.
It’s a great fit for nature lovers who want a quiet, comfortable place to come “home” to after exploring Sequoia and Kings Canyon — with the added bonus of your own riverside spot to enjoy.
