Retro River House! Waterfront, Firepit, BBQ, Gameroom, 1 min to Sequoia Park.
The Retro House on the River has Amazing Views of the Kaweah River from the house! You will go back in time and experience a one of a kind Retro House that has been renovated with that 1960s Retro Flair. The Retro House sits above the Main Fork of the Kaweah River. The view from the house are breathtaking and unbelievable as the water cascades down from the Pumpkin Hollow Bridge to just behind the house to a calmer / gentler flow which is perfect for swimming or fishing. You will make some awesome memories at this unique and family-friendly place. Many locals hail this as the Best swimming hole in Three Rivers. The house is only 1 minute from the Sequoia National Park Entrance Gate, so it is very convenient for those traveling to the Park.
The space :: 3 Bedrooms /2 Bathrooms ( 3 Queen beds - 1 per bedroom :: Game Room :: sitting area over looking river :: Propane BBQ :: Ping Pong Table :: Foosball Table :: PRIVATE RIVER :: Beach ⛱ Area :: Firepit :: Pool Table :: Arcades :: String lights at night :: 2 Smart TVs
THE VIBE:: Perfect for people seeking inspiration and renewal in nature. Come and relax in mother's nature and see all the abundance wildlife. Enjoy the beautifully landscaped property with stunning rock work. Cook outside with the propane BBQ and sit on our patio while connected to nature.
THE HOUSE:: This home is the ultimate Retro River House with big windows overlooking all the glorious River views. Upon entering the home, you will be greeted by beautiful RETRO details all over that can only be found in this home. All furnishings are all new, which set that "mountain modern" vibe for this home in the woods. It has 3 Bedroom and 2 bathrooms, and also a Game Room Room. All spaces have been curated with modern furniture, creating a calm and relaxing environment to sleep that stress away.
THE RIVER The Main Fork Kaweah River is beautiful all year round. Like all natural rivers, the Rivers has high seasons and low. In the spring and early summer, it is high and fast moving. As summer wanes, the river slows and lowers but never completely dies up. We are fortunate to have water year round so you will always enjoy the soothing sounds of the river. Children must be chaperone at all times, especially near the river. Please be cautious of current, especially during winter and early spring.
AROUND:: The Sequoias and surrounding Sierra Nevada mountains are some of the best that California has to offer. Centrally located, the house is about twenty minutes drive to the main entrance to Sequoia National Park station and both Slick Rock recreation areas and King’s Canyon National Park, and just a 10 minutes from Three Rivers town restaurants and shops. A nature lovers paradise, there are plenty of areas to hike, bike, fish, and swim; and during the summer months, world-class white-water rafting and kayaking. Lake Kaweah, surrounded by the golden hills of California’s lower Sierra Nevada mountains, is just five miles downstream and a hot spot for boating and fishing.
LOCATION:: Three Rivers, California. Nearest Airport: Yosemite/Fresno International (1 hr/70 miles)
BEST TIME TO VISIT:: Year round

Excellent location as our base for exploring Sequoia NP, and still convenient to a few dining options and groceries. It was fun to be able to enjoy the river for a cool refreshing experience after a long day of hiking. I would definitely recommend.
Had a great time at this beautiful home. Location was perfect for fun in the river and access to National Park. Host was very easy to communicate with.

Thank you so much Paul for such a kind review. It was truly an honor getting host you and your family.
Perfect spot. Seconds from the entrance to the park. Sipping coffee by the river in the morning. Evenings playing games and enjoying time on the patio grilling. Just amazing
Loved it here! Cute retro decor. Kick ass bbq grill. Beautiful view (and sounds) of the rushing river out back. Location is fantastic. Water temp and pressure is great, beds too! Plenty of kitchenware, 2 big screen tvs and arcade games and a mini pool table gave the kids something to do. Host was easy to contact and responsive. Just be careful of the steps going down to the river if you have littles. Bonus: the ducks on the river came to visit us every time we sat on the riverbank
Loved it! The location right on the river is truly superb — the views are beautiful, and being able to hear the river from the room was incredibly peaceful and relaxing. The home itself is cute and retro with lots of charm, very spacious, and the beds were extremely comfortable. It was also conveniently close to restaurants and grocery stores, which made everything easy. The host was amazing, responsive, and very accommodating throughout our stay. We would definitely come back again. Thank you!!

Beautiful place to stay, if you have Family of 4or more best place
Charming property and great location for exploring the national park. Great communication and check in process. The kitchen is a bit small if you plan on cooking but there is plenty of space for a family of 5-6. Great river side backyard without a ton of river noise. Bring your own coffee setup if you're a serious coffee drinker but otherwise amenities are well appointed.
This retro house was perfect for our visit to the Sequoia National Park. The kids loved all the games and we loved the view of the river from the spacious deck. The host was extremely responsive and even provided restaurant recommendations nearby. Would highly recommend staying here to anyone planning a visit the Sequoia National park.
You can’t beat this location if you are going to Sequoia National Park. Our kids loved the game room, and my husband and I loved the river! Perfect resting spot after a day of adventures.
Fabulous location 1 mile from Sequoia National Park entrance on a river where we relaxed for hours, nearby restaurants and supply stores. Also enjoyed all the games.
My family had such a great stay at this house. The owner was extremely communicative and responsive. The house was a great location from the National Park and my family really enjoyed coming back after a long day in the park. The games were a hit by the kids and the house had everything in order to make a good meal after eating out for so many days.

Thank you so much Page. It was an absolute pleasure hosting you and your wonderful family. Thank you again for being such wonderful guests.
The property is delightful. The deck outback watching the river is really great. The owner sent us a lot of email links to different things you can do in the area and was super helpful. I would definitely recommend this place.
Doesn’t get any closer to Sequoia National Park than this. Great view and great location. House is clean with plenty of room. AC units are a bit loud but even in the heat of summer it’s possible to cool bedrooms to allow the units to be turned off for the night.
This home is definitely retro (some items frankly just old). That said it's a fun home and great for families. The location is scenic and extremely convenient, 2 minutes from Sequoia entry. The checking information and communication ahead of time regarding attractions, local shops/stores was extremely helpful. The check-in/checkout process was easy and the host was very responsive and insured we had everything we needed for our stay.
