Great Views - 2 Miles from Sequoia National Park - DOG friendly

This is a custom home on a mountain side that is full of oaks and natural rock. I've always had the impression that it was designed by an architect but that children of the 60's made it their home. The inside of the house is comfortable and a little quirky with antiques, stained glass and artwork scattered among the contemporary furniture.

Whenever my wife and I travel we really look for something that is "user friendly." For us that means reasonably priced and without excessive fees and rules. We have tried very hard to make this home that kind of rental. We have also been very aware of safety to make sure you, your children and pets are safe in the house and on the decks.

Even though this home is located less than a half mile from the highway, it has a sense of wilderness to it. We find it tranquilizing to sit out on the large elevated deck with view of the valley to the west, the sounds and sights of the river below and the Sierra Nevada Mountains to the East. The evenings might be best however, with sunsets over the valley and the stars against the black night sky.

Quail are commonly seen here. Deer, wild turkeys and bear are seen occasionally throughout the year and hummingbirds visit during the warmer months.

The house has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, central heating and air conditioning, cable television with both English and Spanish channels, WIFI and a blue ray player with roughly 1,000 DVDs to choose from. The elevated wrap-around deck is gated and completely fenced to keep your children and pets safe. There is also a picnic area with a propane barbecue and picnic table.

There is about 1,000 square feet of outdoor decking to relax, star gaze, have an adult beverage, read a book or do a little bird watching. The options are abundant and completely up to you! The deck is enclosed by fencing for the extra safety of children and your family pet. There is also a separate deck for barbecuing and having a picnic.
