I can deal with pretty much whatever when I travel. I'm not a bougie diva. The location was great and it was right on the river, so that was great. The room looked fine and perfectly fine for our two nights. I went to use a coffee cup and they were both dirty, so I washed them before I used them. But, when I got ready for bed, I went to take a pillow sham off of one of the pillows and I was pretty shocked. I don't do biohazard at hotels and lodging places. The pillow was brown from bodily fluids like sweat and drool. The bonus were the dried blood stains on the pillow! I really was gobsmacked that anyone would even think that was acceptable. I brought it to the office the next morning (mind you, when I arrived staff was out running errands and my key was taped to the door, and I'm not sure if anyone is around in the evening, but when I brought them the pillow, someone was just opening the office at about 11 am) and asked for a clean pillow. It took a few minutes for the staff member to find me a clean pillow. My observation of the office is that it was pretty old and musty. I could also complain about the beds, because they are obviously old and bad, but I think the pillow situation was plenty. If they upgraded the beds and made sure the pillows were clean, I would have no problem staying there again. The river is beautiful and it's only 6 miles from the national park.

We couldn't have asked for a better place to stay. It was exactly what we needed for a couple of nights, the A/C unit kept us warm and toasty, and above all that, the service, Michelle especially, was wonderful. Don't come here expecting luxury, it isn't that. Rather, its a homey, comfy place with small town charm, run by people who go above and beyond to accommodate you. Michelle even made us a bonfire when we mentioned making one ourselves. We would definitely rent here again.

We rented the Family Cottage #6 and it was awesome. Wonderful deck looking out at the Kaweah River. Our beds were comfortable, the A/C worked great, and the cabin was clean. There were a few tiny ants or ant-size roaches in the kitchen but for a rustic cabin experience, it s part of the ambiance. Michelle was wonderful and helpful at check in. My elderly mom and I had a wonderful time here. We will be back someday!

$300 and I come into dirty sheets and no working TV. Dirty sheets with hairs all over them are a no go. Glad we are here for only 1 night. They offer housekeeping check ins but the number they give you is not answering and you cannot leave a message.YUCK

Simple & unappealing tiny cabins on arrival.� Booked a cabin specifically knowing there would be kitchen utensils, a mini fridge & microwave there as a minimum. How wrong I was!! Not a plate, utensil of any description for our 2 night stay. Two basic chairs outside that just held us. No space inside the cabin to lie our cases down to open so no wonder there was no chair or table inside.� If you looked beyond the basic, old cabin & looked further to the running creek it made me feel better.Poor communication and the address we had was incorrect and the note on the door provided a phone number to call.All in all location excellent but service and lack of attention to detail a big problem.Rooms: Small and lacking basic facilities such as cutlery and a jug and tea making facilities.

Unheard of - stay away! Toilet wouldn't flush. Enormous holes in couch coating. Access to first floor bedroom directly dangerous. Filthy refrigerator with living insects. Dirty carpets. Located a few yards from the heavily traficked road. Poorest acccomodation you can imagine. We left after 10 minutes and paid for a proper room at the Comfort Inn & Suites across the road.

I loved my stay at this cabin! It is so close to the river. The manager was very helpful to me and my family. My husband and I are planning on going out there for another week. I do not know why the bad reviews, because honestly we enjoyed every day that we stayed up there in the woods by the river. Thank you Sequoia Riverfront Cabins it was a awesome vacation for my family and I !

It looked cool. Had too many bugs I had to leave. They did let me cancel next two days. Said they had just treated for them too. They are cool little rooms and in the river but those bugs were too much for me!!

Checked in, and the room hadn t been cleaned. Someone dirty underwear was hanging on the towel rack. Pictures made it seem like you have a view of the stream, but the plants are so overgrown that you don t. Grills were all broken, random bricks strewn everywhere. They were very disorganized and put me down for one night instead of two, and the phone number for booking didn t work. Everyone was plenty nice, but the cabins are just not well kept or well managed.

Great location, i would stay here again in a min.We did have 1 issue, the shower it was aweful, no water pressure, i mean none.. took forever to just get wet. FIX THE SHOWER!!!! We even took the shower head off and it was clogged somewhere in the pipe.. the sink was fine, great pressure.Cabin was clean, great heater, nice view of water, close to everything and the caretakers were very nice.Woman who helped us put a note on the bill about a credit so when we checked out, maybe a discount. That never happened..

It s not the ritz......but it s a dry place to sleep. Its indoor camping at it s finest.I would recommend that you bring your own bed linens and towels because cleanliness is NOT a priority at this establishment. They do provide you with bottled water at check in which was nice.The gentleman that checked us in at the store down the road was very friendly.If you need comfort and cleanliness then this is not the place for you.We came to enjoy nature and sequoia park and just chalked it up to- you get what you pay for.Cheap stay for a last minute booking.

This had to be a joke, but it's not. The owner was there when we pulled up. The man was rudeness his tome and Told us there is a surcharge that had to be paid in cash for 2 vehicles. This guy wanted an extra 75.00 for us to park a second car. Since we are on a budget we couldn't do it. My wife cried most of the way home. Happy birthday babe...... never again, HOTELS ONLY from here on out. See it was my idea to get a cabin. Thought it would be romantic and she loves the woods. Buuuut no. Run from here as fast as u can....

This is a complete ripoff. The description of a cabin was completely inaccurate. It was not a cabin. It was a very small room, as part of a larger home, that had no chair to sit in, just room for the queen size bed for $250 per night. Without touching anything in the room, I returned the keys immediately, still prior to the check-in time for a 2 day stay. I asked for a refund and was refused even though they had it it for two days to rent. Outside the room was trash, rusted equipment and generally a very ugly outdoor scene with no place to sit in the shade. Do not do business with these people. They gave me a big runaround and no refund.

Terrible place !!! . spider under pillow, dirty, ( long over due for deep cleaning and paint job ) , towels good and nice view but poorly maintained. No towel bars or place to hang clothes, french doors are ready to fall off and locks on door poor.Outside lights burned out. Did not feel safe.!!! shower awful and mattress poor. Never go back. Much better places to stay. Pictures on website were not accurate of present condition. We had two cabins and neither one good at any price.

The reviews for these cabins are all over the place, but it was last minute and only 1 night so I took a chance. It turned out to be a really cool experience and I enjoyed my stay. You check in at a "general store" that has all kinds of necessities and from food to beauty products, and also run down cars, taxidermied rattlesnakes, and general junk/treasures. I had to holler for help, but the guy was very friendly and we made a few jokes. Marissa, a cheerful young lady did the check in. She told me everything about the cabin and where I was going, and gave me a gallon of cold water. She seemed like she really cared and is trying to get the place turned around. She gave me an entire bottle of shampoo when I told her I forgot mine, and checked up the next morning to see how my night went. This is a very small, family owned business. It is not a 2 star hotel like Google has it listed, it's several seen-better-days buildings down a very steep dirt road, (my SUV was fine but if you have a sports car or something else low you won't make it) and right next to route 198 and the entrance to the national park. I stayed in cabin 9 with the wraparound deck and the extra bedroom upstairs. These aren't log cabins, they have stucco walls and terra cotta roofs. Mine smelled like Fabuloso immediately, which may be what others are referring to as pesticide. Come on, you all really never smelled Fabuloso? As far as the bugs go...... you're in the middle of a forest so there's just gonna be some bugs people. Any cabin along the river is going to have a few that make it in. It's part of the experience. My place had a full kitchen, it wasn't pretty but everything worked and there was coffee. It was fully stocked so someone could cook and serve a whole meal for a large family. Temperatures were in the high 90s to low 100s when I visited, and the 2 air conditioners got the place cooled down quicker than I expected, but still took a bit, so in the meantime, I went to the river and stuck my feet in the cool, crystal clear river. It's the wild west back there, it's not a park so play at your own risk. The bed was great, memory foam mattress, and the shower had super high pressure. It looks like they just fixed it. The satellite receiver was gone so there was no TV, but I didn't care. That's not the point of this place. This isn't lodging so much as an experience. There's no cell service here and the wifi didn't reach my cabin either (it did work 100 ft outside the door though). What's great about this place is you can just hang out on the deck and listen to the river carry away the stresses of home,work,family, etc. When it's dark, the stars are on a whole other level from what we in the coastal big cities see. There's what seems like millions of them really twinkling. I could see clearly the milky way and the dippers without even looking for them. So just chill out, drink some wine, smoke some , listen to the river and the crickets and just be with the forest. It's the reason we come, right?

We booked cabin #10 online. Arrived unpacked and and the owner pulls up and tells us to leave that the cabin was given to us in error. If that wasn't bad enough he acuses us of trying to take advantage, trying to get something that we didn't pay for. So we threw everything in the car and were driving 400 miles home. Ruined fathers day for everyone.

The place is not clean. Neglect is written all over the place. The chairs at the dining table are very stained.There was no Wi-Fi in our cabin. There is a lot of trash outside. One of the two driveways is so broken that one has to be careful not to damage the car coming in. The instruction in the room says that there is wi-fi outside the office so one can sit in front of the door at a table provided there and use it. The rooms are not cleaned daily and towels not refreshed. Upstairs one of the two light fixtures did not work. In the bathroom both florescent bulbs were burnet. The patio felt like it was about to fall any minute.We felt ripped off considering lack of services and the high price of the room. As mentioned by someone else, one is warned that if the rooms, other than the bed and towels, are dirty $100 charge will be added to the price of the room. In case you decided to clean the room so it is clean for the following guests make sure you do not use the white towels to clean. There is not suggestion what you should be using for that purpose.

Cabin's location is pretty good. It's by the river ,and it's very close to the Sequoia National Park . The cabin itself how ever was very neglected, and needed to be repaired in multiple places. We woke up one morning and found some dead roaches on the floor. I talked to the manager , but he called me a dreamer ,and did not do anything about it . The price is definitely too high for a cabin with this condition

Our experience was awful! The cabins were dirty. The window sills were dusty, stove and microwave oven were dirty and glass doors disgusting. The pictures from the website were deceiving. It was a true crap hole! The plants outside the camp ground were over grown. Ugly dried up tall grass every where. It made it impossible to walk to the creek behind our cabin. In pictures it looked like the creek was near by but in reality it was over 100 feet away . In my opinion, it was not safe! They also had these creepy guy renting long term a cabin next to ours. As a woman, I felt unsafe and begged my husband not to stay there. We ended up getting a room at the Comfort Inn down the road. Chad and Monica refused to give us a refund.

Beautiful river and connection with nature. New comfortable rustic cabins. We saw deer outside from our balcony. 1 less star for fact that we had to get our own towels but overall a great fancy camping experience that brought bank great memories and made new ones!

I loved it.....had a blast. The river had lots of water so it was peaceful. The owner Chad made a big flat area in front of the cabin to alow a full view of the water. The cabin came with a bbq. The room we picked was priced very fair....I now found a new place to stay with the family!!!I wish all the hotels in the area had the same vision.

We booked a cabin 6 months ahead for our anniversary celebration but one day before our anniversary, the manager called us and said you cancelled your reservation and I am calling to confirm it and we rented it to the others!!! We never cancelled it and she lied and also she did not have any evidence to prove it. They RUINED our anniversary and our best long weekend.

Not sure what people were talking about, but this place was clean and awesome. The staff are adorable and sociable. For people who complain about no WiFi, etc, why rent a log cabin when there is so much you can enjoy without that. Would highly recommend and you can t beat the river view in the back!! Thanks for the hospitality and was perfect for part of our anniversary weekend -Chris and Gloria Parker

If you have kids get the room with upstairs beds. Cabins are new rustic. The guy from Alaska that works at the general store is awesome, superb customer service. We rented #5 and #6. Number 6 has a kitchen and it is fantastic, made the room so worth it. More to report later.

We ve had a horrible experience. The place was overpriced and broken down. The wifi and satellite tv don t work from cabin 6-9. I needed wifi for homework. But, when I asked the maintenance person for help, and he told me I could check out and go somewhere else. Not helpful at all. We promised a balcony, but it was broken. The place has potential, but it needs a lot of work. I honestly wouldn t recommend it until they fix up the site.

Let me start off by saying .GREAT LOCATION beautiful. Great for family perfect space for a great weekend loved it..with that said..No iwldnt stay here again..for what this place charges I expect minimum good AC we were dying! A small simple Wall AC unit for a 2 bedroom house..because they're not cabins .. You will find spiderwebs in every edge of this place like they don't dust .nights were very unsettling. Outside we cldnt hang out in porch because same is very unkept you will get spiders just sitting in a chair...if I paying a close to thousand dollars I expect better
