A place of rest

We arrived later than expected but were thankfully found along the road by our host who was out looking for us. The location was wonderful, twenty minutes from the park entrance. Very quiet and serene. Would definitely go back.

Great for our visit to Kings Canyon & Sequoia NPs. Kim was a great host & was quite nice!

This was a great place to stay for our week of sight seeing and hiking! The views here were a sight of there own and the bird life was a dream! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. It was quite comfy! Be aware this is a very remote location so have all supplies before you get there, also roads are very narrow and winding.

Great Get Away

An amazingly cute cabin nestled in gorgeous nature. About a 15 minute drive from Kings and Sequoia National parks its perfect for a real turn-your-phone-off get away. Cozy inside and out with everything you need! Tons of books, games, puzzles, movie, and windows to get lost in the present. Kim was also an amazing host and made sure I was prepared and had everything I needed.

Lovely retreat off the beaten path

Very much enjoyed my stay at this property! Hosts were very friendly and helpful and made sure I made it safe. Close to Sequoia & Kings Canyon National Parks too. Be sure to get there during the daylight as the roads are very twisty, turny. Definitely would recommend!

Tranquil Cabin

Cabin was perfect for 2 people. The place was fully stocked and clean inside. We got to meet Kimberli, our host. She was very sweet and made us feel right at home. It was a perfect location as it was in close proximity to Kings Canyon and Sequoia Nat’l Parks. Highly recommend this property!

Great place for a relaxing stay near the sequoias

This is our third (or maybe fourth) time at this cabin, and it's always been great. The owner is super helpful and friendly and accommodating. The place is always clean, and it's well stocked with everything we need (except food, of course). It's a close drive to the sequoias, which is why we go, but secluded, so no traffic or neighbor noise. Beautiful sunsets and star-gazing are an added bonus.

A slice of heaven

My husband and I had the privilege of staying at the Sleepy Raccoon this weekend and throughly enjoyed our stay. The location is beautiful, the fire pit was lovely. Everything about this stay was exactly what we were looking for. If you want to unplug, unwind and disconnect from the world, the sleepy raccoon is your place!

The place is great! We stayed a whole week. it's in the mountains, and it sniwed while we were there. That was exciting for us. Kimberli was very attentive, checking in frequently, lending a couple of things to make our trip more enjoyable. She's also a pleasure to talk to. I definitely recommend.

Lovely quiet setting in a great location!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Note to owner, the mouse you suspected might be around made an appearance - it climbed down from the kitchen cabinet and disappeared behind the TV. It was fine with us but might freak out a future guest.

Why they chose this property

WILDFLOWER ARE ARRIVING EARLEY!!!!
The Sleepy Raccoon cabin is off the road but very accessible excellent for stargazing
quit place to come and get away from the noise of the city unplug and pick up a book or bring your arts and crafts! set out on the deck and grab your guitar or favorite instrument and jam with the sounds of nature and don't forget to bring something to Bar-B Q,
Please be up front with the number of guest and pets that will be staying, I charge $25. per child aged 13 and up. BE HONEST PLEASE

What makes this property unique

I have tried to put everything in the cabin that I think I would want to have if I was coming up to a home away from home but keeping it simple and uncluttered.
The only thing you will need to bring is your food supplies and toiletries. and personal items.
