"Peaceful Riverfront #1" only 6 miles to park entrance

Reviews...if you are see a review that makes skeptical please ask about it. Guest tend to leave bad reviews when they are called out on breaking the rules. Usually they have booked for 5 then bring MANY MORE or they bring a pet.

We Disinfect, Sanitize And Spray for bed bugs after every guest. We apologize but due to all the additional sanitizing/disinfecting that has to be done we had to change the check out time to 10am & check in time to 4pm.

We also own the house next door, listed as "Peaceful Riverfront #2" so we can accommodate up to 25 people. contact me for more information (805)720-0545

This is a very nice home with THE SOUTH FORK OF KAWEAH RIVER FLOWING THROUGH THE BACK YARD, AND AMAZING MOUNTAIN VIEWS. It is furnished for comfort. 2500 square feet of living area. All the rooms are nice sized with spacious bathrooms. Large great room for family gatherings, with a large brick, corner, wood burning fireplace (Seasonal restrictions apply and We supply some wood from Nov. 1st thru March 15th ) It has a nice large front yard, large stamped concrete drive, lots of parking, and beautiful brick work. There is a nice rear yard with THE RIVER flowing through it, and beautiful trees.
The great room has a comfy sofa, chaise lounge, 2 recliners, 65 inch 4G Smart TV with CableTV, DVD/VHS player, a small selection of movies, large windows with VIEWS OF THE RIVER THAT FLOWS THROUGH THE BACK YARD AND BEAUTIFUL MOUNTAIN VIEWS. There is a sliding glass door leading out to the large deck.
The dining area seats 8, with more seating at the counter. There are 3 beautiful tall windows that provide a VIEW OF THE RIVER and MOUNTAINS. A well equipped kitchen opened to the living and dining areas WITH A RIVER VIEW, island cook top, built in oven, French door refrigerator, dish washer, microwave, toaster oven, blender, mixer, dishes, pots & pans, crock pot, wine & martini/margarita glasses, spices, toaster, eating & cooking utensils, knives, and then some.
There is a laundry room with washer and dryer, laundry soap, and softener sheets just off the kitchen. We do spend quite a bit of time there, so the house may be better equipped than investor properties.
The large master bedroom has a sliding glass door with VIEWS OF THE RIVER AND MOUNTAINS, which also leads to the deck. There is a Cal King canopy bed, a 55 inch 4G TV with cable, and furniture that provides plenty of room to unpack.
The large master bath features a cedar lined walk in closet, double vanities, and MY FAVORITE is the LARGE JETTED TUB with two large windows with VIEWS OF THE RIVER/MOUNTAINS (Pour a glass of wine, and it doesn’t get any better than that).
Bedroom #1 has a twin daybed with trundle, a desk, some books, and an armoire for your clothes. It also has an old style TV with front jacks for the kid's video games.
Bedroom #2 "The Blue Room",. is very nice, with lots of natural light from the 3 large windows over looking the large front yard, and the large sycamore and oak trees. It has a queen bed with a very comfortable mattress topper (can be removed if you require a firmer mattress), large dresser, 32” flat screen with cable, and a nicely sized closet.
We also have 2 roll away beds, and two sleeping pads.
There’s a large rear deck with, propane fire pit, Gazebo to shade from the sun or rain, tables and chairs, seating for 11, an umbrella, and a propane BBQ grill. You can enjoy watching the family play on the lawn while soaking up THE SOUND OF THE RIVER FLOWING AND THE AMAZING VIEW OF THE FLOWING RIVER AND MOUNTAINS. Or, enjoy your morning coffee while watching the squirrels, or the many different beautiful birds, turkeys and quail among them, as well as the occasional ducks in the river and deer.
The family can have fun with board games, cards, croquet, volley ball, and bean bag toss.`

Keep in mind the house/Three Rivers is located in a country mountain area so there's wildlife including bears, mountain lions (I've never seen one), turkeys, quail, squirrels, snakes and plenty of insects including fly's, spiders, bugs and mosquitoes.

This is a "No Host" rental, but we do have someone local in case of an emergency.

The housekeepers do an excellent job, however they are human and may miss something especially during the busy season. Feel free to contact me with any problems.

Please keep in mind that the amount (if any)of water in all rivers in Three Rivers will vary depending on the time of year, how much rain and mountain snow melt and how hot the summer is.

Three Rivers has many festivals and events. It offers an abundance of riding/hiking trails. The Sequoia National Forest is world renowned for it’s beauty, Giant Sequoia Trees, and the famous General Sherman's Tree. There are plenty of places to eat, a grocery store, mini-markets with gas, medical facilities, fire station, library, post office, thrift store, gift shops, museum, gallery, antiques, and even a new brewery.
This home is located in the beautiful “Cherokee Oaks Community”, which has beautiful oak and sycamore trees, maintained roads without the city traffic, lights, or noise. The area is perfect for family walks, and riding your bikes. My grandchildren love to ride their bikes while we are there, and I am comfortable they’re safe.

Lake Kaweah is only 1.5 miles when it’s full, otherwise it’s about a 10 minute drive. Great for fishing, boating, jet skiing, and swimming. They offer fishing and patio boat rentals at the marina

There’s a 3 day minimum requirement for holiday weekends.

Small events may be considered. Message me with details and authorization prior to booking.

Quiet time is 9pm.

For security purposes we have cameras in the front only.

Feel free to text or call me with questions 805-720-0545.

Due to allergies absolutely no pets. Violators will be charged a $250.00 deep cleaning fee.

Quite getaway!

Our family, had a wonderful stay. My son was able to ride his bike around the neighborhood discovering turkeys and peacocks walking around. My daughter completely enjoyed the backyard with the river right there. The house was warm and comfortable. Location is great, super close to the National Park. Host was a great help and friendly. We thank you for our family forever memories.

pleasant stay by the river

I have to give a mixed review, since the location and comfort were very good, and we enjoyed our experience with Sequoia National Park. The property could use some repairs, however, especially the shower water control, which had a paper instruction, that didn't work. So we only had one working shower. Also the fan control in the master bedroom did not work, and the electric outlets did not support the modern chargers. Also the grill control didn't work, and the grill needed cleaning. I left a list of improvements for the host. Overall did enjoy our stay very much.

Amazing house for families with littles

My husband and I have a 3 year old boy and our friends have a 1 year old girl. This house and property were very child friendly (including a large lego set) and no breakable relics lying within reach. The entire house is carpeted so we did put a towel under the kids when eating meals. The three bedrooms, 3 bathrooms came in handy with 4 adults and a potty training 3 year old. The mosquito net could use replacing on the deck as there were a ton of mosquitoes so we generally stayed inside (it was also a heat wave and over 100 degrees the whole time) Kitchen was great for cooking large family meals, couch was super comfy for nap time and the bonus was an arcade game in the 3rd bedroom with Pac man and Galaga. The house has 2 temperature sets (one for the living room and and one for the bedrooms) which was awesome that we could keep part of the house cooler than the other when not in use. Only 15 minutes from the Sequoia national forest and only 2 minutes from the lake. The gentleman living next door was very kind and told us some history about the creek behind the house and the other neighbor is also a short term rental. This house is tucked away in a cute little community so there isn't a ton of traffic driving by and there is a very large driveway so no worries about the kids wandering into the street. Overall spectacular!

Great stay

We had a fabulous stay here. It's right on the river and the house is very large and spacious! Lot's to do and a great location near the town and not too far from Sequoia National Forest. The turkey family visiting every morning and the deer in the backyard were also a plus. A coulple things I wish I would have known before my stay. No filtered water. The state websites state it is not safe to drink the tap water in Three Rivers, and their filtration system is not working. So we had to purchase tons on drinking water from the store. It's also a VERY old home. Lots of things need fixing and replacing. With that all being said, we would defintily still come back. We also definitely appreciate the amazing air conditioning system they had! Kept us wonderfully in 110 degree weather. Thank you!

The house was spacious, listening to the river was wonderful. the beds were comfortable, but they could invest in some new pillows as they were very flat. we would rent this home again as the town offered plenty of places to eat, but i would suggest if you're going cook bring food in as the prices are very expensive in the local market.we loved that it was very close to the sequia n.p.

Overall good

Like another reviewer mentioned, I didn't get an access code for the rental and wasn't able to get a hold of the owner through messages or by phone, so on the day of our rental, I had to call VRBO customer service. They were able to get her on the line and we cleared things up. Turns out she hasn't been reliably receiving messages through VRBO. She was very apologetic and things resolved well, but we were nervous about if we'd get in or not. The rental is as described. It's very clean and well taken care of. My kids enjoyed the video game machine and the backyard is absolutely beautiful. Keep in mind you are only allowed to explore the river directly behind the house, as there are neighbors to either side. The house is dated - there is carpet in 2 of the three bathrooms and some damage to the wall in the master that should be addressed. But the layout is great and the rooms are large and comfortable. It's about 20 minutes to the entrance of Sequoia National Park, which is what we were looking for.

The photos don’t do justice. This place was old but beautiful. It was bigger than expected and water was flowing peacefully. We took advantage of jumping in the water and using the DVD player. Old style cabin, old movies was amazing. The host was also kind and helpful. If you book through Verbo and Expedia the number they have is incorrect. Use the app to make the call because there is a glitch messaging the host through verbo. Would definitely book with them again. We actually had stayed at their other cabin on the right side in 2020 which the river was dry but the cabin was still amazing.

Horrible Communication

The house is comfortable, aged but we didn't have any issues with the home itself. It was perfect for my family which includes two kids and my elderly parents. My issues are with the owner. I was looking at two houses in Three Rivers and picked this house specifically due to the great interactions other renters have had with her based on their reviews. Unfortunately this review section only allows 1499 characters and my situation requires more than that (the treatment and communication were that poor) but long story short, we ended up leaving a day early because the interactions or lack thereof by the owner made me uncomfortable. I showed up to a house in the process of being cleaned. I was questioned - when did I rent it? Did I rent the one story or two story? Does it have a game room? What’s the address? “This house isn’t being rented until Tuesday”. These questions were being asked of me by the cleaning lady with the owner on the phone who didn’t answer my 3 previous calls. The owner mentioned that something was going on w/ Vrbo and she never got the notice that I rented the property. She was aware the Friday before (because I had to call for the entry code) we were to arrive (Sunday), however between Friday and Sunday she apparently did nothing to figure out the discrepancy. By Tuesday, I was so worried another family was going to show up, we decided to leave. I cherish the little time I get to spend with my parents and this trip left me regretful and disappointed.

Relaxing in Three Rivers

We enjoyed the house. We ate in and we ate out. The kitchen has everything you need and a good supply of seasonings. We did no do any grilling, so didn’t check that out. In town our two favorites were River View restaurant and Reiner’s candy and ice cream shop. Due to the unusual winter weather we weren’t able to play or fish in the river, too much rushing water. Sequoia National Park was only open a short way into the park. We went as far as we could and enjoyed some of the hikes.mostly we relaxed. After a stressful year the relaxation was what we really wanted. The back deck and backyard were great places to read books and take in the river. Inside was comfortable in the AC. It was very safe and enjoyable to walk through the neighborhood. There was no problem contacting the owner and the caretaker. They were both great.

About the host

Hosted by Cyntha Bolding

Host profile image
I am retired, with 3 grown children, and 4 grandchildren 1 great grand child. I purchased this home as a family vacation home, a place where we could make some wonderful lasting memories, and start some new traditions. We are happily accomplishing both. We love the unique area, and the location because we are so close to the beautiful sequoias, and a lake. My 15 year old grandson loves to fish, or at least trying LOL! 3 of my grandchildren have autism and they love Three Rivers. I recently purchased some property with vision of stating a day camp for special needs children with many fun activities for them to enjoy.

Why they chose this property

I’ve wanted a home in this area for a few years, but it had to be on the river and they don’t come on the market very often. I fell in love with this house because of the sound of the river flowing, the yards, the great room with the brick fireplace, and all the windows with a river view. When I walked in the door I said, “This is the one”. I couldn’t be happier with my decision.

What makes this property unique

The location makes this home unique. We are on the river front, one of the few houses on the south fork river that you don't have to climb down many boulders to get to the river and you can see the river from most of the rooms in the house, about 6 miles to the Sequoia National Park entrance. We are close to everything, easy to find, and kid friendly. It’s also only 1.5 miles to the first entrance to Lake Kaweah, when the water is high. When the water is lower, it is still very close. The marina rents patio and fishing boats. We love the lake and the mountains. The area is so peaceful and beautiful.
