The perfect cabin
This was the perfect retreat away from the city. The location was perfectly situated near the base of the national park + not too far from Visalia for grocery shopping. The kitchen was fully stocked so we were able to cook anything. The living room and bedrooms were very cozy and the cabin stove was a definite plus! Our dog loved the fenced-in yard. I would totally recommend this place for a family stay and or medium sized groups.

Cozy Cottage in Great Location and Wonderful Host
Took a girls trip up to Seqioia National Park and found Maile's Cottage to be just as advertized, a cozy historic cottage with ample amenities, located in a great location with access to dining and fuel. Only 5 miles from the park entrance with a nice drive to get there. Robin was very communicative and even had a lovely note and sign welcoming myself, my group and even my pup. She also swung by to drop of some special coffee beans that she forgot to bring beforehand. She was very welcoming as was the home. Only item of note, when the heater is in use, the upstairs bedroom gets really warm.

Perfect Cottage
Great location for exploring Sequoia National Park! Very comfortable, well-furnished house, perfect for family and friends gatherings. Spacious inside and out. The three bedrooms and two baths allowed for spreading out and privacy. The kitchen had everything we needed and the owner, Robin, provided a few extras for our Thanksgiving cooking. We were so happy to find this gem in the heart of Three Rivers!

Perfect Seqouia getaway
Took our teens to visit Sequoia national park. This house was perfectly situated close to the park entrance and with walking distance to a nice little brewery on the river. We felt very welcomed and the house had everything we needed. Would love to visit again.
