This is an amazing property. It was wonderful to be able to sit and drink good coffee while watching and listening to the river flow. We enjoyed swimming in the cool water on a hot day. And we just soaked in all of the peacefulness. It was beautiful and comfortable, and it was nice to see wild quail and turkey on the road.

Lovely riverfront retreat

We had a wonderful time at the Kaweah Gem. The suite had everything we needed to chill out and enjoy the river. The swimming hole was exceptional. Beautiful landscaping outside and updated, cozy and clean interior. Owners were very responsive and helpful.

A Jewel Indeed

The River Jewel is more than a short-term rental, It’s an idyllic place that’ll make you go mental. In a setting that John Muir would’ve admired, it’ll make you wish you were retired, to be able to return next season, to enjoy this place, and for any reason!

So enjoyable with River song

The accommodations were great. It has only one sink but everything else was great. If you rent make sure your neighbors don’t have kiddos cause you can hear them upstairs. Overall once the kids checked out it was perfect. We would stay here again!!!!! Loved the area and all the nature around the rental.

Perfect anniversary

Having been married in Sequoia 50 years ago we chose The River Jewel for our anniversary getaway and were not disappointed. Our room, Kaweah Gem, was the perfect spot! Diana has thought of everything, from a refrigerator for your wine to a coffee maker for the next morning. And what a view of the river from the spacious shower. Highly recommended!

So Incredibly Beautiful!

The shower is absolutely incredible! Bed is nice and comfortable, and everything was decorated so beautifully. We loved the extra little snacks provided and the attention to detail. The walk to the river outside was gorgeous and we spent our New Years Eve by the fire pit listening to the river.

Magical Spot

Magical is the only way to describe this spot! We rented because of it's proximity to Sequoia Nat'l Park but I would have been just as happy staying at the property all day. Every detail from the quality linens to the top notch appliances in the outdoor kitchen to the thoughtfully placed hammock by the river made this one of the nicest rentals I have ever stayed.

Can't recommend highly enough!

It has all been said - setting is spectacular, suite is fantastic, bed extremely comfortable, owners couldn't be more helpful .... pictures just can't capture how nice the unit is and the beauty of the surroundings. Add to that the fact that Three Rivers is the perfect base to visit Sequoia National Park. We will be back I'm sure!

Stay Here - You Won't Regret The Decision

We stayed 3 nights at the River Jewel. It is located just outside the entrance to Sequoia National Park. The accommodations were wonderful and opening the windows to hear the river rushing by was a treat. If you are a couple looking for a great place near the park, stop looking and rent this one. The hosts live on the property but their house is several hundred feet and many trees away. Riverview Restaurant (dinner), Sierra Subs (lunch), and Gateway Restaurant (breakfast) were all good for the meals indicated. Get gas in Visalia if you want to pay a reasonable (for California) price. No Verizon cell service in Three Rivers but once you are at the River Jewel, you can connect to WiFi and make calls. I would also recommend that in addition to the park, check out Dry Creek Drive. Drive West on 198 from the River Jewel. After going around Lake Kaweah, turn right on 216 in Citro. Cross the creek and then turn right onto Dry Creek Drive. This is a fantastic drive with beautiful scenery, lots of bird watching and photo opportunities. Dry Creek will take you to 245 and a right turn will take you to Kings Canyon Park. Early morning is the best time for this drive. We had a great time and the three days went by much too quickly.

Excellent place/location

The wife is big on going through vrbo, myself give me a clean hotel and less expensive and I’m good. We have went through vrbo for years. That being said for the first time I was totally impressed with vrbo and this place. If all vrbo were this nice and in such a great location I would feel like money well spent. I’ve been telling all my friends about this place since we came home and even while we were still there I started talking to the wife about booking this location again for this coming spring. As far as the owners/managers they were outstanding never in your business but right there for you if ever needed. Location for sequoia park was great only about 5 or 6 miles away. Not a big city but you can get what you need, limited restaurants but the food was very good at the ones we chose to eat at. Keep in mind I am the penny pincher in my family so the question is would I spend the money to stay here again? The answer is yes without any hesitation . For once I felt like it was money well spent. This is the first time I can give a vrbo a five star plus.

Awesome setting, wonderful bed!

The River Jewel is just minutes outside of Sequoia National Park, with the most beautiful setting. We loved the extremely comfortable bed after a long day hiking and the easy access to the beautiful river right outside your door. We went to the market and cooked our meals in because we wanted to enjoy the peaceful, incredible setting as much as possible. If you’re visiting Sequoia, this is the place to stay!

Peaceful Oasis

My husband and I stayed at the Keweah Gem for our trip to Sequoia. We would highly recommend it. The room was clean, peaceful and beautiful. The grounds were enjoyable to walk around by the river but watch out for the slippery rocks. The river ate my phone within a half hour of arrival. Of course that was completely my fault. The sheets were so soft and inviting after a day of driving. We melted off to sleep. Communication with the owner was quick via text when needed. We would highly recommend a stay.

Beautiful Setting!!

This property is absolutely stunning. It sits right on the river. It was so wonderful to cook, eat, and watch the river all from the same vantage. There are surprising little nooks all over the property for quiet reflection and enjoying the river ecosystem. The bed was comfortable, the room was quiet and every detail was well thought out. The owners’ dog, Colt, was an added surprise as he greeted us each morning as we exited our room. We highly recommend this property and cannot wait to return.

Book this one now!

An absolutely beautiful stay - worth every penny. Out of the 7 places we stayed on our CA road trip, this was hands-down our favorite. Comfortable, thoughtful, private, well-appointed, and so infused with nature - the river is the selling point, but everything else offered is certainly noteworthy. We stayed in the Kaweah Gem and loved cooking in the outdoor kitchen and wandering the property. We easily could have spent 5 days here. Next time! Don't hesitate - just book this place and you will be happy you did.

Peaceful River Retreat

We so enjoyed our stay at the Kaweah Gem! Upon our arrival we were welcomed by Larry and Diana’s most precious dog, Colt. He paid us regular visits during our stay which was the highlight of the trip for me as he is so smart and polite and a delight to have around. The suite is beautifully decorated with attention to ALL the details. It was so peaceful that I felt like we were staying the night at a spa. Right on the river, you can sit outside and enjoy the sights and sounds or you can open the window and let the river sounds lull you to sleep at night (or maybe even for an afternoon nap!) The king-size bed is comfy and outfitted with super soft sheets and just-the-right-weight comforter to guarantee a wonderful night’s sleep. The mini kitchen has a fridge, microwave, coffee pot, and yummy snacks! The large bathroom with the super-sized shower was wonderful with lovely shampoo, conditioner, and soap. The property is beautiful with several seating areas right on the river and a trail to the water where you can walk out on the large boulders. Ask Colt to take you for a tour, he’ll be happy to oblige! We wished we could have stayed longer and would stay here again if back in the area!
