Shady Knoll was a great place to stay when visiting Sequoia NP. Sitting on the deck or the front yard provided us with fantastic views of the surrounding mountains. Our host was more than accommodating and provided us with everything we needed. We couldn't have asked for a better location during our visit. We would highly recommend!!

This home in Three Rivers was perfect for our 2-night stay for Sequoia/Kings Canyon. The home is located just a few short miles from Sequoia NP. It was fully stocked for everything we needed plus some. A welcome basket with snacks and wine were waiting for us upon arrival. The beds and sheets were extremely comfortable, the house was spotless and the views in the multiple sitting areas outside were gorgeous. I spend a lot of time reviewing possible rentals on VRBO by reading comments and checking locations and I highly recommend this home. Tip – We left Yosemite for our 2-nights at SEQ/KC and our Maps app took us to KC first. We decided to head to the house around 6pm from KC, and didn’t realize that we were actually 1.5 hours away from Three Rivers. The drive that our Map app took us was a very winding, narrow road. We were very thankful that we didn’t make this drive at night! The better route would have been KC through SEQ National Park then Three Rivers. The road would have still been very windy in parts but a better road. Had we known this, we would have put “Three Rivers, CA” in our map app from Yosemite then visited both parks from SEQ. I should have asked the host, Mark, his thoughts on this route beforehand and I’m sure he would have directed us better. Mark was extremely responsive in several aspects – letting us know before our arrival of the fire (didn’t affect our trip) and when the house was ready for check in. This was one of our favorite VRBO rentals to date!

The property was amazing! We had all the amenities we needed plus the views of the mountains were unforgettable. Mark was a terrific host. He promptly answered any questions we had. Also the info given pre-trip was helpful along with the info inside the home. Mark really thought of everything. The home was plenty comfortable for four adults and was impeccably clean. The snacks and wine left by Mark as a welcome gift were greatly appreciated. We all greatly enjoyed each of the many outdoor patios both front and back. We’ll never forget the beautiful sun and moonrises and sunsets! Gorgeous. The home was also close to restaurants and provisions. A memorable stay. I’d love to return some day.

This property is thoughtfully decorated and appointed. We were deeply impressed by the location and the views! And because the kitchen had plenty to support cooking, we were able to successfully pull of a Thanksgiving meal with our daughter and SNL. If we had any questions, Mark, the manager, was so responsive to our calls. Thank you Mark! We would be blessed to return and enjoy more time at The Shady Knoll!

We were greeted with a nice welcome gift which included a bottle of wine and various snacks. Views from the front and back yard sitting areas were beautiful. Great location for visiting the Sequoia National Park. The kitchen was well equipped and living areas comfortable. Only negative was the master bathroom needing a little TLC and some areas a bit more dusting.

I cannot say enough great things about The Shady Knoll! The communication leading up to our visit was awesome, Mark made sure that we had up to date information about the National Parks and the status of the roads. And the house is just awesome, the outdoor spaces, the views, the patio built into the rocks, I could have spent a lot of time just enjoying the house, but it is just a couple of miles from Sequoia National Park, which is amazing, and then a short drive further to Kings Canyon, which is also amazing. The kitchen is great, but there are also good restaurants in town if you don't want to cook. I cannot recommend this place enough! You will not be disappointed if you choose this great place to stay!

Stayed at the cabin as part of a 3 week west coast trip with my family. The home was a great spot for us to relax after a day at Sequoia. Easy access to the park, and great communication with the owner. He provided good options on local spots to hit while we were there. Would definitely stay again if in the area.

The property was amazing! We had all the amenities we needed plus the views of the mountains were unforgettable. Mark was a terrific host. He promptly answered any questions we had. Also the info given pre-trip was helpful along with the info inside the home. Mark really thought of everything. The home was plenty comfortable for four adults and was impeccably clean. The snacks and wine left by Mark as a welcome gift were greatly appreciated. We all greatly enjoyed each of the many outdoor patios both front and back. We’ll never forget the beautiful sun and moonrises and sunsets! Gorgeous. The home was also close to restaurants and provisions. A memorable stay. I’d love to return some day.

The Shady Knoll is a very comfortable home. We found everything we needed. It is very close and convenient to Sequoia National Park. We enjoyed the beautiful mountain views from the house in the daytime and looking at the starry skies at night. We highly recommend this place!

Amazing stay at a beautiful location! The view off the front and back porches were breathtaking. We drank our coffee out there in the morning and had our cocktails in the afternoon. Love that we were just a few miles away from the entrance of Sequoia. Correspondence with Mark was amazing. Would highly recommend.!!

The Shady Knoll is all you need and more! The proximity to Sequoia NP is perfect. We loved that even when we got back to the house, the views didn’t stop! Watching sunset and stargazing from the porch was a major highlight! If we ever make a trip to Sequoia again, this is the only place we plan to stay.

The Shady Knoll was the perfect place for my family of 4. It has everything you need, and the views are incredible. We felt right at home, my 2 little boys enjoyed seeing the wild turkey and quails visit. It's close to everything, Sequoia & Kingdñs Canyon National Parks, and the shops. I would definitely recommend!!

We were so pleased upon arriving and seeing that Shady Knoll exceeded our expectations. The house was beautiful, comfortable, and had everything we needed to cook all our meals. Enjoyed sitting on the decks and catching up with my family who I hadn’t seen since before Covid. Would return in a heartbeat. Thank you Mark for your attention to all our needs.

This little cabin in the mountains is awesome! The location is wonderful, just outside of Sequoia National Park. The cabin itself is nicely updated. Perfect for my parents and I. 2 full bedrroms and 2 bathrooms. Very clean! The entire home was very well stocked from the kitchen to the bedrooms and bathrooms! We really enjoyed the views, spending time outside on the front and back decks and we even used the gas grill. I would highly recommend staying here when in the Three Rivers/Sequoia ares! Mark, my only suggestion would be to add some sort of writing paper and a pen or 2, but our stay was wonderful!

We enjoyed staying at the Shady Knoll as it was the perfect base for visiting Sequioa National Park and provided us with a very relaxing place to start and end the day. We especially enjoyed the various outdoor sitting areas around the property with terrific views in all directions. The local shops and restaurants are also recommended, especially those with areas to sit by the river. Mark was an excellent host and provided information and help to us beyond our expectations without any delay. Recommended!

Really nice property overlooking all of Three Rivers. Mark provided laundry pods and other things like snacks, which was a really nice touch. We appreciated getting all of the information on restaurants and things to do ahead of time plus it was printed out for us when we got there. Wish we had stayed a second night.

I cannot say enough great things about The Shady Knoll! The communication leading up to our visit was awesome, Mark made sure that we had up to date information about the National Parks and the status of the roads. And the house is just awesome, the outdoor spaces, the views, the patio built into the rocks, I could have spent a lot of time just enjoying the house, but it is just a couple of miles from Sequoia National Park, which is amazing, and then a short drive further to Kings Canyon, which is also amazing. The kitchen is great, but there are also good restaurants in town if you don't want to cook. I cannot recommend this place enough! You will not be disappointed if you choose this great place to stay!

This was a perfect house in such a quiet area. The owners were so thoughtful. The house is very well appointed. The views from all around were spectacular. Lovely places to sit and enjoy the heat of the valley and the view to the snow capped mountains beyond. We didn’t go to any of the surrounding restaurants opting to use the fantastic BBQ and all the kitchen equipment. The Generals Highway was closed and Mark provided helpful information about alternate routes. Might have to come back, travel the Generals Highway and stay again.

This property is thoughtfully decorated and appointed. We were deeply impressed by the location and the views! And because the kitchen had plenty to support cooking, we were able to successfully pull of a Thanksgiving meal with our daughter and SNL. If we had any questions, Mark, the manager, was so responsive to our calls. Thank you Mark! We would be blessed to return and enjoy more time at The Shady Knoll!

House is very spacious with modern amenities. Host was very welcoming, providing much info about Three Rivers' food and necessities prior to our arrival. It was a plus that there were snacks and wine as welcome gifts. If you are staying to visit SEKI, the deck has a great view of Moro Rock and the Sierras.

We stayed two days at the Shady Knoll and absolutely loved it. From the open communications with our host to the wild turkey that decided to pay us a friendly visit on our first morning. The house is wonderful, the location is not only convenient, but breathtaking. The host made everything easy and the house was exactly what we were looking for. If/when we make another stop at Sequoia, we’ll schedule our trip around the availability of this house.
