The Shady Knoll

The Shady Knoll was created and is managed by a great local Three Rivers Team. We really do care about all our guests in regards to your experience at our vacation rentals as well as your visit to "our neck of the woods". The ‘Knoll’ is located on a secluded and quiet lane only 2 miles from the Sequoia Park entrance and it really is on a Shady Knoll. The kitchen is fully equipped with utensils, pots, pans, dishes, spices, a blender, and a toaster, everything you would need to prepare meals in-house for those who love to cook. We also provide you with coffee and assorted teas, along with a few complimentary goodies. We provide plenty of local information and tips from your Host including where to go if you just prefer dining out! The bathrooms are always clean with plenty of fresh, clean towels. We also supply you with shampoo, conditioner, body wash. The beds are all top of the line King size and include all new linens. These beds are comfortable! We also use hypoallergenic pillow and bed protectors for your safety and comfort. The couches and the dining room table are comfortable as well. Yes, there is a large HD-tv and very good Wi-Fi. The Wi-Fi is good enough to stream movies 24/7 so we provide you with free Netflix! There is a BBQ on the deck and the living room is situated to take in views of the (often) snow-peaked Sierra Mountains. The views from the front and back are some of the best in Three Rivers and each is completely different. Relax on the huge back deck with a panoramic view of Moro Rock and Alta Peak! The small front deck looks over the whole town of Three Rivers. You will have a view of Eagles Peak and you can often hear the Kaweah River in the valley below. Always be on the lookout for photo ops of our local wildlife and those Selfie Shots! During your stay, you will have complete access to the home and privacy as well. If you have any questions or need anything I am available 24/7 however it is not mandatory that we meet. Most people just want privacy and of course a clean and comfortable stay. WE GIVE YOU THAT! COME STAY AT THE 'KNOLL'. YOU WON'T BE DISAPPOINTED!

Juniper Point Cottage Waterfront

4.95 out of 5 average rating, 148 reviews1 week ago

I spent 3 1/2 days in the Cottage and was lucky enough to have no one else booked at the same time as me so I had complete release from everyday life which is exactly what I wanted to do as well as fish. As soon as I got on the dirt road to the cottage, I knew it was going to be amazing! Deborah and her husband are the nicest people. I was greeted and given a tour of the compound and was left to do my thing. I brought my boat and Bob was kind enough to bring it to the waters edge so I could easily launch every day. The cottage is super cute and cozy and has an amazing view of that lake. I loved eating my dinner and being able to see the water from the table. Bed was comfy and bathroom was big. As for the fishing, It was incredible!! First day was rough due to winds but after that, I lost count of how many fish I caught. I brought enough supplies so that I didn't need to go into town except for fishing stuff and 1 night out to eat. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED if you plan to visit Lake Isabela!

My team had a great stay at this Airbnb! The place was clean, cozy, and exactly as described in the listing. The neighborhood was quiet and felt safe, with everything I needed close by.

California Hot Springs Getaway

4.86 out of 5 average rating, 258 reviews3 weeks ago

If you are looking for a peaceful secluded getaway, you can not do better than Bibi's place. There is no cell service, and very limited access to the internet. And that was exactly what we were looking for. It was a chance to detox from our digital leashes and enjoy life without screens, which was super refreshing. Highly recommend it if you want to recharge and relax.

The Playhouse at Spirit Walk (Off-Grid Tiny House)

4.92 out of 5 average rating, 260 reviews7 months ago

Beautiful place with lots of amenities and things to do. We stayed at the Playhouse and it was charming. Loved the water supply. Be prepared for the bees while eating by the benches but we are in the middle of the forest so expected. John was friendly and funny. Worth a visit and would come back here camping!

Small farm cabin near town

4.83 out of 5 average rating, 334 reviews4 days ago

Our stay at the cabin was lovely and relaxing. We loved having so much outdoor space to enjoy the nature and loved hearing all the farm animals. We even got to pet Marlene the cow! The cabin was perfectly located to explore Sequoia and Kings Canyon national parks. Three Rivers offered a good selection of food/groceries/gas nearby as well. The cabin was stocked with everything we needed. Overall, I would stay here again :)

Charming Home Inside Sequoia Park

4.77 out of 5 average rating, 327 reviews1 month ago

The space is incredibly spacious, with four double beds and one single bed, along with three bathrooms, which was perfect for our large family gathering. The living room offers a breathtaking view of the snow-capped mountains right from the window, and the surrounding natural scenery is simply beautiful. It was so peaceful and relaxing to unwind while taking in the scenery. However, there were a few minor drawbacks. Some of the furniture showed signs of wear and tear, and the double beds were a bit wobbly, which affected the overall comfort level. Despite these small issues, I would still recommend this place to others looking for a comfortable and scenic accommodation. With a few upgrades to the furniture, it could truly be a five-star stay.
