Both accommodation and food disappointing in-fact so is Sequoia and General Grant . We booked Tent-Cabin and asked girl booking us in if it had a fridge only to be advised by her manager at check in . It’s in the name ! Tent . So no electricity. So is Cabin in the name and cabins have electricity . Manager was very curt with her juniors and in front of guests embarrassing her staff. Cabin was comfortable but with nowhere to store food overnight most produce was wasted. Restaurant was unbelievably understaffed , in fact no one to take orders . There was a kiosk where you placed your order and paid but because it was right by the entrance door there was a huge line that was there for an hour and half going out of the building . With a burning sun it wasn’t pleasant nor was the food. Won’t return

It was very vintage and appealing to stay in the park! Being able to enjoy sunset and sunrise was amazing! - Please note the cabin did not have AC or Wifi signal so if that is urgent perhaps consider another option. The cabin we were in was close to the John Muir Lodge and just around the corner from the store/restaurant and post office - so very convenient. For our stay we rather enjoyed some star gazing and time together without devices. My husband/daughter needed to check on a few things, so we took a trip to the main lodge. We had only planned to stay 10 minutes or so, but were delighted to find they had puzzles and also some books & games. They also have tea and coffee. I enjoyed a cup of tea with my daughter and we also took in the mountain view from the rockers on the porch. If it is warm you may want a fan of some sort and an eye mask if you are sensitive to sleeping with lights on (which I think the cabins do for safety lighting/bear deterrent). We made amazing memories and loved the experience. The girls had time to journal and sketch and no shortage of views for inspiration. The staff was professional and friendly! We plan to be back and have already referred several friends who are planning a visit.

Overall, the cabins were great. Exactly what we needed for our family to stay for a few nights and explore some of the bigger attractions within the park. We had quick, easy access to Hume Lake, Big Stump Grove, Panoramic Point, General Grant Grove. It was a very manageable drive to General Sherman, the tunnel log, the Parkers Group, and Tokopah Falls hike.

Stayed one night after spending the afternoon in Kings Canyon NP and then the following day in Sequoia NP after checkout, in a summer tent cabin. Its a small wooden structure with a canvas roof, nil electricity so bring a torch and power pack. It has two small double beds. Amazing spot! Small cabin numbers so was really peaceful, the stars were incredible! We self catered but there is a restaurant on site and a small store if you needed to buy food (pot noodle, can of soup etc they had a microwave and boiling water). The toilet and shower block were what you would expect of a campsite, clean and functional. I would stay again it was great.

We went in mid May and the weather was wonderful! There were no crowds anywhere. Some roads were closed due to the season. With 4 days in the parks we visited all the main sights we wanted to see and didn’t have time to do anymore. Next time we’ll go in the busy season and see different places. Try booking a place to stay way in advance, accommodations fill up quickly.
