8.8 Very good
Pros:Was a beautiful lodge we throughly enjoyed our stay, the hotel is beautiful with the wooden structure and the property is stunning, only downside was the restaurant though the food and service was excellent the decor left little to the imagination , was hoping the restaurant would have a more lodgey environment rather than the plainess it was but overall very very happy!!
A
8.3 Very good
Pros:The staff is very friendly and the lounge area is roomy and well arranged with several tables and chairs, couches, single comfy chairs with lamps for reading and a large fireplace. In the summer, there are nice benches and chairs for sitting on the porch areas in the shade. The lodge is perfect if you don't want to camp, but still enjoy hiking and outdoors of Sequoia and Kings Canyon.
Cons:The pillows are not very comfortable and plush. There is no internet in the rooms.
