THE RIVER AND THE 2 DECKS::
You will find a beautiful trail that lead you to our picturesque river with endless boulders!! There you will find two large decks over the river and sitting areas along the river. This area is absolutely breathtaking!
The Southfork 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 lower 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 time especially near the river.  Please be cautious of current, especially during winter and early spring.
(The 2 decks are located at the river area. The river area where the decks are is just a short stroll  from the house.)

AROUND::
The Sequoias and surrounding Sierra Nevada mountains are some of the best that California has to offer. Centrally located, the house is about 15 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)

BEST TIME TO VISIT:: Year round

Perfect SNP Retreat
Our group of 8 had a wonderful stay at this property, including 4 kids ranging from 6-11 years old. The house was clean and nicely laid out so that we didn't feel at all crowded. We were able to make several family-style meals in the kitchen. Our kids LOVED the arcade games in the sun room and would go running to relax after long days of hiking. The quick access to the decks and river was great for a morning cup of coffee or an evening glass of wine. The host's communication leading up to our trip was top-notch, and even when we had a small power outage during our stay, he kept us well informed of the issue and even had his staff bring us ice to keep everything in our refrigerator cool. The nighttime view of the stars was breath-taking. We loved feeling remote, yet able to get down into town and to SNP relatively quickly. Everything about our experience was A++!!

Memorable Stay
We really enjoyed our time staying at this property. It offered enough space for everyone in our family and provided a great background to make family memories. It was located near to the National Parks and other activities of interest and we loved spending time in the secluded, private river out back. Highly recommend!

Celebrating the wedding of my brother and needed a place that we could both relax and help be close enough if needed to help prep for the wedding.

Prime time family time!
Visiting family 1 mile down the road. The home was great for accomadating our family from Oakhurst and New Jersey. 8 of us stayed, plenty of room. The kitchen was well stocked and the dining area large enough to host family meals for 10. The listing is accurate, the river was beautiful and the host's were easy to communicate with. We will definitely rent again on another family visit.

Fantastic home base for Sequoia and Kings Canyon!
Great property in a great location! We had a group of 6 and it worked really well. 1 of the bedrooms is a bunk room that would accomodate a larger group/family well. Three Rivers was an awesome place to visit with great food - all guided by our tremendous host. From the moment we committed to the trip, our host was communicating at a super high level to ensure the stay was all we imagined - and more. Coffee on the deck by the river was fantastic!

Great Home in a Beautiful Spot
The home was really nice and the property and surrounding land were even better than the pictures. Our kids really liked the game room and we were able to have fun down at the creek. Owners were great and helpful leading up to and during the trip. Internet is pretty slow due to how remote the property is, so I’d recommend taking advantage of being isolated and just not plan on relying on internet access much. I’d definitely recommend this to any families looking for a relaxing getaway, with good access to nearby activities

Relaxing by the River
From booking, we had excellent communication with the owner, providing us recommendations, advice, and check-in information for our stay. The house is beautiful with the open floor plan and areas to relax. There is plenty of comfortable seating and we found ourselves relaxing by the river or chatting and playing cards on the back deck of the house. The kitchen was setup with everything we needed to cook, even with dishes for our kids. I loved how open it was with the windows overlooking the back yard and into the game room. The beds were comfortable with pretty linens and pillows. There were plenty of towels (large bath towels, hand towels, and washcloths) for everyone. We did not use the washer and dryer but loved that it was available. Overall, the house was incredible, the host was amazing, and the location was perfect for visiting Sequoia.

The host was a great communicator. There were no issues with the home. The property is fantastic. We saw all kinds of wildlife, enjoyed the river, and got to town and the NP easily. Days were full of outdoor activities and evenings were cooking, games and time with family and friends. Plenty of room for 4 adults and 4 kids. Wish we had stayed 5 nights instead of only 4. Thank you for sharing your home. Sequoia and Three Rivers draws me back time and time again. It’s such a peaceful, beautiful place.
