We love this place. Great view of the surrounding mountains. There was a nice cat in the office and a lot of humming birds outside. Very peaceful.

Beautiful setting
We loved our family stay here. Perfect place to base yourself before heading into Sequoia national park. Stunning setting with mountain views all around. Nice pool. Seats dotted around the place to enjoy a coffee looking at the view. Friendly welcome on arrival. Would definitely stay again.

The Lazy J is an old style motel with two rooms per small building, where you park right in front of your room. The room was clean and had been renovated at some point in the past. The beds were ok. The room had a window air conditioner which kept up pretty well in 95 degree heat. They have a pool which we didn’t use, and there are restaurants within a mile or so. It’s not *5 star* like I’d give to an urban hotel, but I’d say it was good value if you’re looking for a clean place to stay close to Sequoia National Park.

I was hesitant to stay at a 2 star hotel but the reviews were good. We agree. The motel was clean, and the staff were friendly. There were lots of personal touches to make the experience nice. We recommend!

Cute motel worth a visit
This was a cute little motel, room was clean and even had a working fridge which is important to someone with meds that must be cooled. There were a couple of little tecnical issues which were quickly solved. The front desk person was very couteous and good.

We loved this property. It was a lovely spot. The room was comfortable & the A/C worked well. It was nice to visit the goats & sheep in the morning. The only thing we didn’t like was the overly fragrant cleaning supplies & the room was full of stinky fake fragrance. We prefer non toxic fragrance free cleaning products.

Not very comfortable
We stayed only one night so we could his Sequoia park. This is a good place to stay at and was OK, except for the bed. The bed was so soft I got a backache after one night on their bed.

Convenient, comfortable traditional motel .
Comfortable established motel in Three Rivers. Very convenient for an overnight stay before a short journey into Sequoia Kings Canyon National Park. Comfortable bed, clean room, air con and a bonus of a ceiling fan. Situated in very well kept gardens adjoining a river. Small outdoor pool was handy but the water could be a bit cleaner. No food options and nearby eclectic mix of restaurants are a drive away and some close quite early. We would happily stay there again.

Really special little gem. We were greeted with friendliness when we arrived. We spent most of the evening swimming in the outdoor pool, surrounded by beautiful scenery. The room is cozy and smells nice and clean. The beds are more firm, which I like. Everyone slept well. I would love to stay here again if I’m in the area.

This is a very cute and family friendly property. The units themselves are average, bed was decent. Good to have a table and chairs to sit at. Laundry facilities are available and that is a plus. We had some issues with scents in the room. We got there in time to ask for a fan to help vent the room and that helped but didn't remove all of it. Most people do not have issues with scents as my husband does but this room was too strong for him. Staff was friendly and helpful.
