Calm and quiet retreat off the beaten path. Really liked the spot and the hottub and laundry were great perks. Tons of things to keep the kids occupied and the wifi was fast if needed. Nice and close to the national parks as well.

We really enjoyed our 2 night stay here! We had trouble with the initial code to enter the door and host was very responsive. We loved how quiet and peaceful the property was. We enjoyed the hot tub after some long hikes. The kitchen was well stocked with cooking supplies and pantry staples. Would definitely recommend!

The hot tub was not not usable for the duration of our stay as it was only 72F on arrival and didn't heat to a usable temp until the day of our departure. Disappointing since it was a highlight for our work trip. Would have been a nice pain/stress relief for the physical labor we were performing. But the place is nicely appointed with good kitchen and general space.

My husband, dog and I loved our stay here! It was so peaceful and out in the middle of the wild, while still being close to Kings Canyon and Sequoia National Park. We enjoyed the hot-tub, watching the sunset, and the good wifi connection to be able to watch college football. We would stay here again if we were back in the area.

The cabin itself is much larger than the pictures give it credit for. Nice secluded location. A little further from the parks than I anticipated but it gave us a nice scenic drive.

Cute little place with amazing views! Driving around Badger is quite the adventure on all of the winding roads, but it’s totally worth it. We loved the comfy beds, hot tub, and large selection of games and activities.

Fantastic Harrier Hawks

Loved the bird watching. Place is as advertised (remote). About 30 minutes on windy roads to Kings Canyon visitor center. Only requests would be more hand towels and stuff like ziplocks and Saran Wrap for packing food. Our stay was great.

Absolutely Perfect!

This property was the best VRBO we’ve rented! The views, the amenities, the gracious host—all top notch. The road construction added some time and effort to get to parks, but even with that, we’d choose to stay here again in a heartbeat.

Just what we needed for our national parks trip. Close to both Kings Canyon and Sequoia. The neighborhood was quiet and remote. The roads are narrow and windy but worth it to see those views. The place was as described and had a lot for you to do while resting after a day of hiking (hot tub, puzzles, games, telescope) . Sarinah communicated an issue with us promptly. Would recommend!

I can't say enough positive things about this cottage! The host was incredibly responsive and you can tell a lot of details were put in place to make every person feel right at home. The views are immaculate from the property and a comfortable drive to the national parks. I would book again in a heartbeat if ever in the area!
