My daughters and I stayed at Sequoia Lodge recently, and it was a true delight. We spent three nights there, and the experience was wonderful. The place was spotless, surrounded by beautiful nature, and within walking distance of the river—just down some steps! It's accessible, charming, and I absolutely recommend it 100%. My girls and I would gladly return, and we wholeheartedly recommend it to others!

We had a great stay at the Sequoia Lodge. Location was perfect. Just far enough out of town to get a slice of the river to yourself. Great access to the river edge. No scrambling. There are stairs. Great advice in hikes in the area and right across the street from the deli and a must see coffee spot. Roasted on the presence and lots of interesting stories and semiprecious stones. And it’s dog friendly. Highly recommend
