Retro River House! Waterfront, Firepit🔥, BBQ, Gameroom, 1 min to Sequoia Park.
The Retro House on the River has Amazing Views of the Kaweah River from the house! You will go back in time and experience a one of a kind Retro House that has been renovated with that 1960s Retro Flair. The Retro House sits above the Main Fork of the Kaweah River. The view from the house are breathtaking and unbelievable as the water cascades down from the Pumpkin Hallow Bridge to just behind the house to a calmer / gentler flow which is perfect for swimming or fishing. You will make some awesome memories at this unique and family-friendly place. The size of the property is 6 acres extending to the pumpkin hollow bridge, so you have so much private river frontage space to explore. Many locals hail this as the Best swimming hole in Three Rivers. The house is only 1 minute from the Sequoia National Park Entrance Gate, so it is very convenient for those traveling to the Park.
The space :: 3 Bedrooms /2 Bathrooms ( 3 Queen beds - 1 per bedroom, 1 Futon in the living room :: Game Room :: sitting area over looking river :: Propane BBQ :: Ping Pong Table :: Foosball Table :: PRIVATE RIVER :: Beach ⛱ Area :: Firepit 🔥 :: Pool Table :: Arcades :: String lights at night :: 2 Smart TVs
THE VIBE:: Perfect for people seeking inspiration and renewal in nature. Come and relax in mother's nature and see all the abundance wildlife. Enjoy the beautifully landscaped property with stunning rock work. Cook outside with the propane BBQ and sit on our patio while connected to nature.
THE HOUSE:: This home is the ultimate Retro River House with big windows overlooking all the glorious River 😀 views. This home sits on 6 acres with a beautiful walkway all around. Upon entering the home, you will be greeted by beautiful RETRO details all over that can only be found in this home. All furnishings are all new, which set that "mountain modern" vibe for this home in the woods. It has 3 Bedroom and 2 bathrooms, and also a Game Room Room. All spaces have been curated with modern furniture, creating a calm and relaxing environment to sleep that stress away.
THE RIVER The Main Fork Kaweah River is beautiful all year round. Like all natural rivers, the Rivers has high seasons and low. In the spring and early summer, it is high and fast moving. As summer wanes, the river slows and lowers but never completely dies up. We are fortunate to have water year round so you will always enjoy the soothing sounds of the river. Children must be chaperone at all times, especially near the river. Please be cautious of current, especially during winter and early spring.
AROUND:: The Sequoias and surrounding Sierra Nevada mountains are some of the best that California has to offer. Centrally located, the house is about twenty minutes drive to the main entrance to Sequoia National Park station and both Slick Rock recreation areas and King’s Canyon National Park, and just a 10 minutes from Three Rivers town restaurants and shops. A nature lovers paradise, there are plenty of areas to hike, bike, fish, and swim; and during the summer months, world-class white-water rafting and kayaking. Lake Kaweah, surrounded by the golden hills of California’s lower Sierra Nevada mountains, is just five miles downstream and a hot spot for boating and fishing.
LOCATION:: Three Rivers, California. Nearest Airport: Yosemite/Fresno International (1 hr/70 miles)

Family trip to National Parks
We visited for three nights to go to Sequoia National Park & Kings Canyon National Park.
This house is a few minutes from Sequoia entrance. Once you enter the park, you have approx a 45 min drive up the mountainside to get to the popular park sites. The kids enjoyed the duck and Simpsons video game inside. This listing is for half of a house. The other half is a separate listing. There is a shared washer/dryer that can be accessed by both sides of the house through the backyard. There were guests on the other side while we were there and it did not bother us. We only saw their car. Did not see or hear them.

The property is delightful. The deck outback watching the river is really great. The owner sent us a lot of email links to different things you can do in the area and was super helpful. I would definitely recommend this place.

Property was exactly what we needed!
The property manager and the cleaning contact were instantly responsive and so helpful. They went above and beyond. The place was clean and had all the items it advertised. It was the perfect place for our family vacation. Our kids were just old enough (youngest 8), that they followed our direction not to go to the river on their own. If you have younger kids that might go out on their own, that is something you would want to consider. Would definitely stay there again!

Amazing Stay
My family had such a great stay at this house. The owner was extremely communicative and responsive. The house was a great location from the National Park and my family really enjoyed coming back after a long day in the park. The games were a hit by the kids and the house had everything in order to make a good meal after eating out for so many days.

Magical LOCATION!
If I close my eyes, I can still hear the rushing river as it threads its way through the massive boulders creating that magical sound that stays with you for a lifetime.
LOCATION LOCATION LOCATION. This adorable retro house is SO close that our adult kids could WALK to the hiking trails just within the National Park.
Also, you can walk to the nearby Lodge/ restaurant which is important because parking can be hard to find.
But it is the outdoor space at this house that I love the most. Large deck overlooking the river and access to the beach below – put your feet right in that water or swim if you are so inclined.
Every minute I was not on the hiking trail or looking at the trees – I was on that back deck soaking in nature. Overhead all sorts of birds flew by – the sound of the river, the smell of mountain air- PERFECT to relax. I spent a good part of the day in the hammock.
The house is roomy – ALL the bedrooms are a good size. I love the retro look – they have a game room which is amazing for after dark, when you are tired from hiking all day.
The manager was awesome, everything was smooth – easy and she gave us lots of very useful information.
I highly recommend it for a fun stay at a great location.
Beautiful place to stay, if you have Family of 4or more best place

Amazing place
The house is perfect, clean and with everything you need if you want to spend some days surrounded by nature. It has beautiful views and a private beach to the river just below the house, super relaxing! It is super refreshing to swim and play with the kids too! Lots of things to do!! Billar, barbecue, arcades, ping pong and restaurants a couple of minutes away :D The sequoia national park entrance is only half a mile away too! The owners are really nice and attentive people. They give lots of useful and detailed information.
Definitely would stay here again and recommend it to everyone!!!!!
