About this property

Next to Sequoia National Park Entrance and Pet Friendly!

Surrounded by oak trees, it was easy for us to name this location Oak Tree Hollow! We are less than a mile from the Sequoia National Park entrance and have spectacular views of Morro Rock—plenty of space for you and your family pet to enjoy during your visit to the national park.

The house's layout is very open, with cathedral ceilings in the living room and dining areas; the master bedroom offers a private setting as it stands alone at one end of the house. The wood-burning stove is visible to guests in the dining and living rooms. Plus, our amenities include WiFi, Cable television, a fully stocked kitchen, and all linens and towels are included. The front yard is large and gives you plenty of space to throw a ball around, and the back patio gives extra privacy from the main road.

The kitchen offers plenty of counter space to cook fabulous dinners for your friends and family. A large pantry provides extra space to store your food during your visit, so there is no need to leave grocery bags full of food on the counters. Unpack and stay a while! The kitchen offers a bar area, perfect for other family members to sit and socialize with the family's "Chef" while staying entirely out of the way!

The master bedroom is on one end of the house, and the other two bedrooms are on the other end, which gives mom and dad great privacy from the children or grandma and grandpa from the rest of the family!

The master bedroom provides a queen bed, a seating area for reading your favorite book, and plenty of closet space to store your belongings. Please note that the bathroom is not attached to the master bedroom. A door off the dining room separates the hallway, leading to the master bedroom. During the day, guests can easily access this bathroom without traveling through the bedroom. You can close the dining room hallway door at night; the bathroom is yours!

On the other end of the house are the guest bedrooms. One bedroom has twin beds, perfect for the children, and the other has a queen bed. Both rooms offer plenty of closet space for your personal belongings! A queen-size air mattress is available for an additional two guests or eight people.

The second bathroom is located in the hallway and is easily accessible for all guests staying in the house.

The back of the house offers a patio table, multiple chairs, and a propane BBQ. This area separates you from the main road and provides a peaceful setting for the gorgeous Oak Trees found in this area.

The rooftop patio has plenty of space for everyone to hang out! Play some cards, drink a glass of wine, read a book, and most of all, enjoy the view!

Update on past reviews:
We have added a filtration system for sulfur smells and updated the pressure system for our water.

Great fall getaway

This property is very clean and stocked with all the amenities. The air conditioning worked great which was lovely considering how hot and dry it was when we visited the national parks. Having a washer and dryer accessible made our packing light and easy. The rooftop deck was a nightly hangout spot to watch the stars. Very spacious living room to all hang out. We would definitely visit here again!

An Amazing Rental Seconds Away From Sequoia Nat'l Park

The property is better than the pictures even represent. My wife and I just spent five days there, using it as a springboard to visit the Park. The amenities are plentiful, the grounds beautiful, the kitchen well supplied, and the property managers extremely responsive. I would absolutely stay here again, and I recommend it without hesitation. Signed, Alan K

Great vacation!!

Loved the house and the areas, very close to the park and the house was very well equipped. There were 6 of us and the house was very spacious.Close proximity to the little town with nice brewery. Owners have everything in the house that you need, we cooked a lot and were satisfied with the kitchen supplies. Highly recommended.

So close to Sequoia National Park and Very Clean

This was the cleanest VRBO we have every stayed at. Even the outside tables were clean! I appreciated the detailed communication before and during our stay, and the binder that had useful information such as a hard copy of the check out instructions. The kitchen was well stocked with dishes, utensils, pots, pans, a few spices, etc. It had everything we needed. The AC worked great and the ceiling fans also helped us stay cool. Although it is on the road leading to Sequoia National park, which can be busy at times, it was set far enough back that the road noise wasn't an issue for us. It was pretty quiet inside, though that may not be the case if windows were open. We did go up to the roof top patio the first night, but we never spent much time at that table or the table in the back, we primarily used the inside table. It is nice to have options, and when the weather is cooler the outdoor tables could be fantastic. We didn't use the TV, but we appreciated the ice maker in the freezer and the washer and dryer. The beds were not the most comfortable, but they are okay. It was nice to have three separate bedrooms for my family. There was enough room for us to have some space alone when we needed it. The sitting area in the master was nice, there was plenty of closet space and room to sit or move around. If we ever go back to Sequoia we will definitely try to stay here again.

Falsely Advertised and no help from VRBO or property owner

We checked into the home later in the day around 7 PM to find there was no hot tub - which was advertised on the site. When I messaged the host to ask about this, apparently this was "my fault" as there are no photos or reviews about a hot tub on the listing, so how stupid of me to assume there was a hot tub just because it was listed as an amenity. Instead of an apology, Sheila continued to say "I don't know what you want me to do - I cant install a hot tub. You can check out tonight and get a full refund." We had been driving for over 6 hours with my elderly mother (who had flown in from New York) and 10 month old who needed to go to sleep - everywhere in the surrounding area was booked - there was no where else to go. With no other options, we had to stay and the owner begrudgingly refunded me a little less than $300 for an expensive stay for three nights. Unprofessional, unapologetic, and unwilling to help. I'm trying to file a case with the Better Business Bureau for VRBO to refund me and she won't even help me get documentation. She's arrogant and rude and shouldn't be in customer service. Don't stay here. Oh and also the fireplace didn't work. So glad I spent our entire vacation fund on this place. What a let down.

Outstanding home about 5 minutes from Sequoia NP. Easy to find and very well maintained. There are somewhat limited restaurant options so we recommend cooking. The kitchen is very good with all needed items.

Sequoia Kings Canyon trip

The location is absolutely the best for visiting the parks, its just outside the entrance on the main road. We stayed 3 nights. Kitchen is big, fully equipped, we cooked two nights. We loved the rooftop patio, you can see Morro Rock and the neighbors propane tanks. Beds were comfortable. Everything in working order. Its not fancy but perfect for our stay. I'd recommend to any group planning to visit the parks.

Comfortable cabin

We enjoyed our stay. The place was overall clean and orderly . We did not cook meals it seemed that it had all necessary items. One thing that we did not like was the fact that there was a light in the living room that was on a timer and this turned on at a specific time and turned off at 10pm-it was unswitchable. No Smart TV options to watch Netflix etc., they did have Direct TV. One of the conditioner bottles provided was empty -but luckily my daughter took her own toiletries. We personally did not find the beds very comfortable as they were too soft-but for some that may be a preference. The Backyard was mainly brush not really a place to play -this could have been due to the season. Having a well working central A/C was great since it was in the 90 degree weather when we went. Despite the very few issues, this property is comfortable for a family to have an enjoyable mini vacation at sequoia.

Lovely weekend at this beautiful home

This home is even more beautiful than the photos! It's gorgeous, clean, cozy, and spacious. It had everything we needed for a great weekend with friends. We enjoyed cooking in the kitchen, making a fire in the fireplace, playing board games, and relaxing in a peaceful setting. It was so easy to access Sequoia National Park, too. I would stay here again!
