About this property

Riverfront Retreat + Spa • Private Deck • Game Room • View — Close to Sequoia NP

A true riverfront retreat with private spa, peaceful mountain views, and a spacious deck overlooking the water with an indoor hut tub and game room.

Welcome to your peaceful, magical escape in the heart of Three Rivers. This spacious riverfront home sits directly on the Kaweah River and offers guests a unique blend of tranquility, privacy, and relaxation — all just 18 minutes from the entrance of Sequoia National Park.

Whether you’re planning a family getaway, a nature-filled adventure, a romantic escape, or a healing/relaxing reset, this home is designed to help you unwind the moment you arrive. Enjoy private river access, a fully enclosed indoor spa/hot tub, an outdoor deck overlooking the water, a large side deck with a Gazeebo overlooking the water, a fun game room perfect for evenings together and a limited exercise room.

Unmatched Riverfront Location:

Step outside to your private riverside oasis.
Relax on the deck, enjoy outdoor dining, BBQ with mountain and river views, dip your feet in the river, or stargaze at night relaxing by the firepit. This part of Three Rivers is peaceful and quiet — you’ll hear birds, flowing water, and the wind through the trees.

There's an indoor/outdoor dining area and table which sits 8 overlooking the river where you can also enjoy your meals or a drink with the peaceful sounds of the river.

The river flows most of the year and is only steps from the back deck.

Although the maintenance folks could have done a better job, the private river front location and the easy communications with the owner overrode what may have been less than a 5 star rating from us. With a little TLC this property would be 6 stars. It's fantastic.

Relaxing Getaway

Kids, parents, and grandparents all had a fun relaxing getaway. The home was spacious, had lots of activities, and the window seats and river views were amazing. The sound of the river flowing once stepped outside was relaxing. Ladan, the host, was very kind and helpful when we had a few questions. If we go to Three Rivers again, I'll definitely look to rent this home again.

Had an amazing and relaxing time staying at this property. Our host Ladan was communicative and easy accessible with any questions or needs we had. This multiple acre retreat has a guest house on the property too. Our family loved the property and took daily and nightly walks. The sound of the river was tranquil and literally in our back yard. We would love to visit this property again in the summertime to take advantage of the weather and more outdoor use of the properties amenities.

Great location

The location of the property was great. However there were several small issues with safety, cleanliness, and the big issue was the jacuzzi. We had several conversations with the host about the jacuzzi not heating up and nothing was resolved. Being that the jacuzzi was the main reason we booked this property it is why I have to rate this stay so low.
Stayed 5 nights in Apr 2024
Response from VrboOwner on 2 May 2024
Abriana although I appreciate your good words on my property location, I have to say I disagree with you on the negative that you have written. I am not sure what safety issue you are talking about. In regards to the jacuzzi: It appeared from all your calls and messages to me that you did not know how to operate things. First you had messaged me about not getting the hot water in the shower and it turned out that you were not turning the correct knob. You also didn't know how to lock the door in the back., and you also couldn't get the jacuzzi to heat. I tried my best to do everything to help you by walking you through, then by scheduling a professional spa guy to come out the next day to see what's going on and you said no to that. Then I offered my cleaning person to come by to show you how and you also said no to that. There was nothing else I could have done. When you left I had the jacuzzi checked and it was working fine! I am sorry for your experience but I do not agree with the review you left.

Thank you Jeff for your review. I'm sorry you felt that way about the kitchen even though the kitchen is completely and fully stocked! Yes, up here in Three Rivers we have bats, rodents, bears, snakes... It's the wilderness. I do everything possible to control it from being inside of the house and I have been 100% successful by having a very good pest control come out often. But unfortunately outside is out of my control other than setting a bunch of traps and bait.

One of the 3 main doors that access the house and bedrooms was broken the entire time we stayed. I was promised by the property manager that the owner would compensate us for that but she would not do that. My wife and I could not sleep the first night due to that. Safety matters to me the most. We did not feel safe the first night at all. The handyman came the next morning and locked the door permanently with a 1” x 4” wood board. I thought of canceling our reservation the first day of our stay. I have requested one night to be refund but I was denied that.

Response from VrboOwner on 3 Sept 2025
Thank you for your feedback. I take all guest concerns seriously, especially when it comes to safety. I'd like to clarify a few key points for accuracy. When you informed me on your first night that you were having trouble with two door locks, I responded immediately and tried to help via FaceTime. When that didn’t resolve the issue, I contacted my handyman, who came out first thing the next morning. He found that one of the locks was functioning properly but required a specific way to operate, and the second lock needed a specialized part due to the unique design of the door. That part had to be ordered, but in the meantime, the door was securely reinforced to ensure guest safety. At no point did I promise any form of compensation, nor was there a property manager involved—I personally handled all communication as the owner. I also want to note that at no time was I informed of any desire to cancel the reservation or check out early, which would have allowed me to assist further. I take pride in maintaining a clean, safe and secure property. The home is located in a very safe area, and I’ve never had any incidents involving unauthorized access. I’m sorry this stay didn’t meet your expectations, but I acted promptly and took every possible step to address the issue during your visit.

Teresa, Thank you for your review. As I replied to your message you had sent me, I do agree with you for the carpets being stained which I explained that I had scheduled a professional cleaner to wash the carpets. They have been washed after your visit. The yard is being taken care of every 2 weeks. It's a 5 acre yard ...The grill gets cleaned after each guest, I don't even comprehend how there could be bowl movement when all the house gets thoroughly cleaned!

Not very comfortable

The house has a lot of potential and the owners are super sweet. I just think they have staff that are not doing a very good job at keeping up with their property. The main things that made out stay uncomfortable was: the spa never got warm, also there was chunks of dirt at the bottom & the water felt slimy, the ac set “set to schedule” which ranged from 73-75 degrees. But, the house was never below 79 degrees which made it really hard to sleep at night. Also, the back door didn’t lock at all which made us all very uneasy so my husband and I slept in the living room. The master bedroom was super hot & none of the outlets worked. Also, the grounds were very unkept and all the furniture outside was very dirty.

Thank you Mykayla for your review. I would like to respond to your concerns: The spa works an gets hot if you follow the instructions. I had guests before you and after you with no issues. Plus I stayed there myself 5 days after you and it was working just fine!! In regards to the back door, again there is a trick to that door and it's in the instructions I had sent you before your check-in. If you would have read it, you would know! The AC you have a choice to have it on a schedule or let it be on all day and night. It was literally just one button on the screen you had to touch. I wish that you would have raised your concerns with me right away and you could have had a better experience rather than just assuming these things don't function! I am always available for my guests and get back to them right away.

I love creating peaceful, welcoming spaces where guests can relax, reconnect, and enjoy nature, and feel at home. As a longtime local property owner and a small-business professional, I take pride in offering clean, well-maintained home with thoughtful touches and prompt and clear communication. My goal is always to provide a peaceful, smooth, and memorable experience for every guest. I’m here to help before, during, and after your stay, and I want you to feel confident that you’re in good hands.

Why they chose this property

I chose this location because it offers the best of both worlds: Peaceful beauty of the mountains and river, and the convenience of being just a short drive from the town and the entrance to Sequoia National Park. Three Rivers is known for its wildlife, scenic views, friendly small-town charm, and endless outdoor activities —and of course Sequoia NP

What makes this property unique

One of the rare homes in Three Rivers with real private river access, an indoor hot tub, and a game room, offering peaceful water views and direct access to the River- steps from the back deck. The setting feels secluded, quiet, and immersed in nature—yet the house is only minutes from the entrance of Sequoia National Park, restaurants, shops, and Kaweah Lake.

Featuring a private indoor hot tub/spa room, perfect for unwinding, a game room in the converted garage, equipped with a pool table, ping pong, air hockey—ideal for families and groups.

The outdoors:
-a large riverfront deck with outdoor dining and seating
-a BBQ area for cooking with a view
-a peaceful gazebo
-private pathways that lead down to the water

The home sits on a 5-acre property, offering privacy, beautiful trees, wildlife sightings, stargazing at night, and a calming, nature-immersed atmosphere that guests consistently describe as “magical” and “healing.”

Whether you want a quiet, relaxing getaway or a home base for national park adventures, the Riverfront Retreat provides a unique combination of scenic views, spacious indoor and outdoor areas, entertainment amenities, and unmatched river access.
