We had a great get away

We come to Three Rivers alot and have probably stayed at almost every single vacation rental and this place rates at the top of my list. We relaxed, re grouped and caught up on some much needed sleep. Our four kids had plenty to do to keep busy. We hated to leave but we will visit again soon. Thanks

Relax Away

We really enjoyed this property. We explored around the house and found the old log flume. The kids really loved the game room. The layout is different so the 3rd bedroom is separate.

Great Getaway House!

This house was really wonderful for our stay with our friends and children while visiting Sequoia. The game room was the biggest bonus to keep the kids occupied when we were home and give the adults some extra quiet space. The house was also very spacious and we had everything that we needed. We found the location to be great and the views and sound of the river is very peaceful. We would absolutely be happy to stay here again next time we visit the area.

Clean & pretty but watch out!

The property was as described. Everything was satisfactory with the property. The only issue with the property itself was that the spa took 24 hours to finally warm up enough to use it. I was more so disappointed actually upon checking out. Days after leaving, I was hit with a property damage claim stating a rug was damaged in the master bedroom. The only thing that was brought into that room was bottled water we kept on the nightstands. I cannot possibly see how a rug was stained. They’re asking for a whopping 800 to replace the rug! Also, they were stating damage was caused to the spa & spa cover. We were in the spa for a total of 15 minutes as stated in their rules. I was in there with my 2 small children- we didn’t cause ANY damage! Yet, were blamed for 3 separate incidents of damage. I have NEVER been accused of property damage in the past & am honestly insulted to be accused of such. Those interested in staying here may want to take pictures as soon as you arrive in order to protect yourself in the event the property owner decides to file a claim against you. Definitely won’t be coming back & will be taking pictures of EVERYTHING going forward.

Great location and accommodation

The property is located very near the Sequoia National Park and is secluded and private. The owner was very prompt in replying to questions. The only negatives were the air conditioning had trouble cooling during the heat of the day and there were a lot of ants in the kitchen. I think it is also important to note that the third bedroom is on a lower level with no direct access to the house without going outside

Lovely home just a few minutes down the road from Sequoia NP

Saadia is a wonderful host. Her home is spacious, clean, well stocked and offers really nice views. The pictures and descriptions are very accurate and she does an amazing job at communications. We are from the Boston area and were travelling from Yosemite to visit King's Canyon & Sequoia NP. We had no real knowledge of the area but Saadia's directions were perfect and we found her home without issue. After a very long drive, we especially liked the hot tub waiting for us already pre heated for a long soaking!!! Finally, for those of you familiar with staying near our country's national parks, you may know that some locations can be pretty rural. Saadia's home and the Three Rivers area proved to be a convenient spot to stay. Just a few minutes to the park, close to a small grocery store and gas stations and convenient to a few restaurants. If we are back that way again, I would definitely stay at Saadia's home again!

Wonderful home- beautiful location

We stayed here during spring break with hopes to go to sequoia NP. With the weather that did not happen. However we had a lovely time in this beautiful house. It was immaculate, had an AMAZINGLY stocked kitchen (we appreciated spices, olive oil, coffee and tea!), a wonderful hot tub and the best game room ever! The house overlooks the mountains and river and is peaceful and beautiful. Everything worked great, the host had a great info site and access was easy. I highly recommend this wonderful property and beautiful home!

Beautiful views!!

This property is exceptional!! There was plenty of space to spread out in the house and plenty of space to gather together. My kids LOVED the game room and were there playing first thing each morning and late each night! The house was beautifully decorated, spotlessly clean, and the furniture, beds and linens were comfy and appeared to be new. The kitchen was well equipped and we enjoyed making breakfasts and dinners there. We were in the area to visit Sequoia National Park and it did not disappoint! Please be aware that severe bad weather over the winter/spring has caused some areas of the park and roads to close…but we pressed on and took the long away around and still got to see all of the parks highlights. Only wish we had more time to enjoy the gorgeous property!!

Amazing Mountain Retreat with Modern Amenities

Myself and my friends absolutely LOVED our stay at Three Rivers. The host was super communicative and they even supply a document that’s amazing as a quick reference for house rules, directions and how to access the place. Saadia even accommodated an early check-in time which allowed us to get some hiking in! The house decor was spacious and homey. And the views of the mountains were BREATHTAKING! Waking up and sipping coffee on the large deck was a highlight of my trip. My friends and I were able to cook using the appliances and the cookware provided (group of 6) for the entire weekend, since the location is somewhat remote, but theres a few restaurants nearby as well. It’s probably one of my favorite rentals that I’ve ever stayed in. So peaceful, charming, and modern. One of my friends even wants to return with another group later in the year!

Relaxing & Beautiful Location

Stayed 3 nights to celebrate our daughters birthday and it was very relaxing. We are a family of 4 (kids 6 & 13). There was plenty of entertainment within the home between the game room and just enjoying the property itself. Having to keep the kids entertained was not an issue and allowed my husband and I to rest and relax. The kitchen had everything one could need to cook meals. The location is conveniently close to the Sequoia's as well. Overall the home is perfect for families, very well maintained, and clean. Just an fyi for future families, the 3rd bedroom is a nice beautiful little studio outside the house. Its attached to the home but one has to go outside and take stairs that lead to the lower level to get to this particular room. Not a negative for us at all. But worth mentioning for other families to be aware of. Could be great for bigger families. We loved our stay and appreciate the prompt response when we got lost on the way to find the home. Thank you for the great service all around!

Superb Sequoia getaway

Shepherd's Heights was a very well outfitted, beautifully decorated home with excellent views of the river. Our family of 4 thoroughly enjoyed our short stay. The game garage (so many different types of games!) and large TV in the living room were much appreciated along with the tastefully appointed and comfortable furniture. Beds were incredibly comfortable (a huge plus!) There is absolutely no cell service at the house but wifi worked well. Also, it was quite confusing for us at first as we had no idea where the 3rd bedroom was... it is indeed a private entrance and at the lower level of the home accessed separately (I was a bit nervous at first but one lucky kid of ours really enjoyed it). All-in-all, a really great rental in very close proximity to Sequoia National Park (though, unfortunately, not during our stay as the entrance was closed due to the winter wash outs... but a 150+ mile one day trip later, we did get to see General Sherman!!!) Oh, and the wild life. Multiple sightings of deer on the property really amused the kids. Only a bear sighting could have made it better!
