Family-friendly vacation rentals in Porterville

Wonderful stay! We used the property as a base for exploring the local national parks - very convenient location! The property/house was clean - we notice small things and think the cleaning crew does a good job. It is rare today that online pictures accurately display the current condition of a property, but all online pictures are very representative of the property! Obviously the pool/hot tub were amazing, especially upon return from a day of hiking, the afternoon heat of California and with kids! Perfect dwelling for a young outdoor family looking for a resort like feel at a fraction of the price! Furthermore, the privacy and quietness of the location will best any other place in town. Excellent stay and the hosts are very responsive, often immediately responsive, and offered great recommendations. Overall, great property, location and value.

We stayed here for a few days while exploring the Sequoia National Park. The home was easy to get into and was nicely clean. The living room was spacious and warm, allowing it to be a nice center point for relaxing and hanging out. The appliances like the washer, dryer, fridge, and dish washer worked perfectly. The hot tub was also a very nice addition, be sure to read the provided instructions, especially if you are unfamiliar with hot tubs. Water was consistent and high pressure. The neighborhood was very welcoming and overall quiet. Would definitely book again if in the area.

Everything was great! We have no complains! house was specious and very clean!

Great Airbnb. Everything was as described with the exception of the hot tub which was not in service when we arrived. Besides that this a big spacious airbnb, very good for big groups

Ava is very responsive and proactive about communications about the house. The place is spacious and clean. Long ways to gas and food and Pine Flat is very isolated. Surprisingly number of houses for so little services. If you’re looking for a jump-off spot to some sequoias or are in town for work like us, this is a great option.

Robert has great taste on designing his place! You can really tell he put in a lot of thoughts about making this place unique! The cute backyard garden is definitely one of the selling points for a group trip! We will be back!

Kathleen's cottage is an idyllic escape outside Sequoia. The river is truly spectacular. at the time we visited it was too high to swim but sitting on the rocks listening to the water was an amazing escape. The house is spotless and just as pictured and Kathleen was so helpful giving us a tour when we arrived. It's convenient to Three Rivers but be aware you're driving in windy country roads to get there (and everywhere). To get to the main section of Sequoia takes about an hour. 2 hours to Kings Canyon (don't skip this, it's worth it!). Wish we had had more time to enjoy the property. Recommend having at least a day where you're not driving into the parks to just enjoy where you're at.

Pete was such an incredible host! My wife and I enjoyed our stay very much and will definitely be coming back. It is so peaceful and so quiet. We saw a few deer and lots of little animals in the surrounding area. The trees are beautiful and the air is so fresh and crisp. There’s so much to do in the house with dozens of board games, a bunch of movies and shows on dvd, a gaming console, fire place was so cozy, the hot tub was easy to work and was a great way to wind down our day! Definitely take advantage of the local sites like Trail of 100 Giants. The local market is adorable and everyone is so friendly. Looking forward to staying again soon!

The Sleepy Racoon Cabin is a small, simple house in an incredibly beautiful and peaceful setting. A wild turkey was often nearby. So many birds - a joy to watch - flocked to the feeders. There were quail and lizards - we loved it! Convenient to King's Canyon, it made a great home base for our exploration of the park. Kim's hospitality was truly wonderful. She was there to welcome us, answer questions, and she made us feel welcome and at home. If you're looking for a quiet, peaceful retreat - if you want to spend time in Kings Canyon and Sequoia National Park - the Sleepy Racoon is a great place to be.

Great location and a lot of privacy. It was peaceful and extremely close to the entrance of sequoia national park. Will definitely stay here again

We first stayed at this cabin in January 2019 and I’ve been wanting to revisit ever since. I cannot believe somehow 6 years passed! Our second visit over this weekend was even better than the first and the cabin was just as charming and cozy as I remember it. The beds are really comfy, and the lack of solid cell service makes it a perfect place to disconnect and enjoy the huge DVD, VHS, and record collection, Thanks so much, Niel! Can’t wait to visit again.

Margaritas place was absolutely what I expected, great area, a lot of patio space for my family and my dogs to be, she was easy to reach when ever i needed something… would definitely rent there

Stayed in Kernville for two nights. Very much enjoyed the house, the beautiful surroundings and I will be planning on staying here again.

We had a fun stay at Jake’s place. Cozy, clean home with a well stocked kitchen. Prime location to Kernville and beautiful view of the mountains. We felt right at home.

My family enjoyed the stay. My two dogs had plenty of space. Very private and enjoyable.

What a treat to stay here. If you’re an animal lover this is your paradise! We got to feed and pet the horses and the hosts’ two dogs greeted us and were so cute and friendly and loved the pets we were eager to give. Gorgeous property. Amazing hosts. Comfortable and relaxing place to stay very close to local town restaurants and brewery. A great place to stay while visiting the beautiful Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Park.

My stay here was absolutely magical! Such a beautiful area, and a lovely unit to stay in with everything you need. Loved seeing the cute little pigs, the big white friendly dogs protecting them and the peaceful river lined with gorgeous trees. The hosts are very responsive and kind. The town of Kingsburg is so quaint and charming as well. I hope to return someday!

This place was what I was looking for, disconnecting myself from the rest of the world for a weekend. My family really enjoyed the stay so much that they wanted to stay longer. The host such a nice lady always greeted us with a smile. Hope I can come back soon. Thank you Michal sorry my daughter still some these juicy great fruit of yours she loves fruits.

The place, the people, the atmosphere, was absolutely perfect. If there was something I needed it was figured out within minutes and yet I felt that I had all the privacy that I needed. It was quiet and VERY clean. It was beautiful and open, and I was completely in my own surroundings and still felt comfortable to come and go as I please. This is a place for families, or couples without children, or elderly couples there’s something for all family situations. you cannot go wrong with this place Robert, Sarah, and Grace have nailed it as hosts

We had a wonderful stay at this Airbnb—an ideal home base for our family of four (with a six-year-old and a four-year-old) while visiting Sequoia National Park. We spent four full days exploring the park with minimal planning ahead of time. Alena and Peter were incredibly helpful, offering thoughtful suggestions on what to see both in and around the park. Each day, we ventured into the park to explore a different area (Hospital Rock and the water behind were stunning!). After a few hours of hiking and sightseeing each day—just about the limit for our youngest in the summer heat—it was such a gift to return to the house and cool off in the beautiful pool. The home itself was perfect: a comfortable master bedroom for the adults, and a cozy sleeping space in the living area for the kids. In the evenings, the kids would unwind with a movie on the bed while we relaxed outside under a clear, star-filled sky with a with a drink in hand. It was truly peaceful. We highly recommend!!

Robert and Sarah's place was adorable. It was homey, comfortable and well equipped. We enjoyed coffee a few steps from our front door down by the river. Iit was a beautiful setting. We picked Tasty Fruit from the trees. We would love to be back for a longer stay next time.

Their place was perfect! Definitely exceeded our expectations. By far the best place we’ve stayed at in Visalia. Super safe and clean. Would love to stay here again when we’re in this area.

We loved the location, which is within 3 miles of Sequoia National Park entrance. The pool area had a child protection gate/fence around it, which really put our minds at ease. The balcony views were lovely! Really loved the interesting art work as well!
