Excellent Stay!
Very unique property. Simple and modern build. My family really enjoyed the access to the river right in front of the property. We visited in early July and the water was flowing well. I imagine the river thins out as the summer goes on. Exceeded expectations overall. Would highly recommend

Loved our visit
As a retired architect with dust allergies, I choose vacation homes based upon design and materials. This property did not disappoint with the bonus of a beautifully scenic location.
The living room and upstairs bedrooms furniture have been rearranged from the locations illustrated in the photos. I like the photos better.
A few minor cleaning and maintenance issues but not more than we usually find at other short term rentals. Overall, I would highly recommend.

Spacious House, Great Stay!
We had a great stay at this house. The house is spacious and has everything you need. Located close to shops and restaurants and only about 15 minutes from the entrance to Sequoia National Park. I would recommend arriving in daylight as it may be difficult to locate in the dark. Would love to come back in warmer weather!

Perfect spot for our visit to Sequoia and Kings Canyon. Great spot by the river. Guest Equity was easy to reach when we had questions. Would book this spot again. Comfy beds and just as pictured.

Great location and home
This property is an excellent spot for a family or small group of adults (4-6). Efficient and functional, it served as a comfy homebase during our adventures to Sequoia, with a super relaxing river front to lounge by and dip your toes in.
After settling in we realized the property was missing a number of essentials (dishwasher detergent, detergent, wine opener, garbage bags) and the management team quickly responded and offered to reimburse us if we were able to purchase. While the offer was kind and understanding, it would have been great to have those basics there - but other than that the stay was great and we managed just fine :)

Sequoia National Park jumping off point
This tidy riverside 3 BR cottage was a terrific rental for our visit to Sequoia National Park. The house was clean and nicely furnished, the bathrooms were also clean with fresh towels and linens.
Guest Equity did a nice job of communicating the check-in and check-out procedure and all went smoothly.
The house is roughly a mile from a nice little shopping and restaurant area in the charming town of Three Rivers alongside the Kaweah River as it finishes its journey down the western slopes of the Sierra Range.
We had good meals at Ol Buckaroo and especially enjoyed the coffee, breakfast and sandwiches at Sequoia Coffee.
The only small quibbles we had is that the mattress in the master bedroom is a bit on the soft side and water pressure in the showers isn't great.
Overall, it was an excellent accommodation and a good value.

Sequoia Stay in Three Rivers
Great location and lovely home! Communication with host was great! We appreciated the nice decor and personal touches. The home was perfect for our needs and it was great to see the horses each time we came and went from the property. Close proximity to 3Rivers restaurants and the National Parks.
