7.5 Acre Sprawling Sequoia Estate with Hot Tub, Private Pond and Flume hike

Host was helpful and responded quickly to needs. The home was clean. The property was nice, especially the hot tub after a long day of hiking! We would have appreciated written instructions for the wall heat/ac and some teaspoons. Otherwise it was very good.

Perfect for our one night stay while visiting Sequoia National Park. Spacious , clean home with extra large primary suite, super comfy bed and everything we needed. Kids loved having their own rooms. Back patio was a tranquil spot for morning coffee. Wish we had more time to explore the grounds! Perfect location with a quick drive to restaurants and the national park.

We came in July to visit Sequoia National Park. It was hot in Three Rivers when we were there-each day over 100 degrees. The house was comfortable despite that. The nearby town was cute and had some places to eat and shop. The park is spectacular. Appliances worked well. Insects not surprisingly sought refuge in the home.We would love to return-when the temperatures are a bit cooler.

We booked our stay for 07/18/24-07/22/24. Due to the condition of the home we checked out 2 nights early. The manager has not honored my request for two night refund. He refused to give me his phone number to send him pictures/video of the home and went by the word of his handyman & cleaner. 1. There wasn’t a pond on property. It was drained. The backyard was not kept up. The patio furniture & umbrella were full of dirt, leaves, and cobwebs. 2. The sun room had not been cleaned. The room was dirty. We were unable to use the area. 3. The ceiling fan in the kitchen did not work. 4. The couches were dirty with stains. We had to use an extra set of sheets to cover the couch. 5. The primary bedroom was always hot. The portable AC requires the window to stay open. There was also a large cut in the screen easily allowing critters to enter the room. The primary shower light didn’t work. 6. During our stay a neighbor came to the home to obtain the property manager’s contact info. She stated she has made several complaints about the maintenance of the home. Unfortunately, I was never given contact information. All communication was restricted to the VRBO app. 7. A code enforcement officer came to the home for inspection while we were at Sequoia national park. 8. The home needs a deep clean. The windows and ledges haven’t been touched in quite some time. There are thick layers of dust. 9. Linens and towels are worn out. 10. The dishwasher hasn’t been cleaned. It’s dirty.

We were so excited to explore Sequoia as we had never been , but we did not like the vrbo. I knew it looked a little older in the pictures, but I trusted reviews of others who enjoyed their stay. Our experience included ants and a mouse in the kitchen the first night. I know we are among the wilderness but this house was a bit dingy. And I’m. It even going to mention the stuff in the garage. The critters grossed us out so much that we left after one night, although we booked three nights. Suffice it to say the owners version of clean and ours are not the same. We were uncomfortable here. The owners said they would send pest control. So I will give them that. But that was not enough to keep us here. We drove 5 hours home the next morning.
