The largest living creature on earth, the General Sherman tree, is close to 2,200 years old. Imagine; the tree was a mere seedling when King Solomn built his temple in Jerusalem, a sapling when Christ was born.

The General generates enough wood each year to produce a 60-foot tall tree of average size.

Dozens of giant sequoia are neighbors to the General; the half-mile downhill trail into the Giant Forest offers access to the General and all the beautiful and hardy creatures. Just be aware returning to the parking lot requires a gentle, uphill walk. It was certainly worth the trip.

5/5 Excellent

"Cabin was spacious yet very cozy. The owner was great about responding quickly to any messages and was very accommodating. The dogs and kids loved the outside space. I was pleasantly surprised by how well stocked the kitchen was. It’s probably the best stocked kitchen I’ve had at a VRBO. Overall it was a fantastic rustic cabin up in the mountains. "
