Property details

The Sequoia River Cabin is a rustic cabin on the Main Fork of the Kaweah River with private river access. Relax by the river during the day and enjoy the fire pit in the evenings while stargazing.

The Sequoia River Cabin is nestled in the Sierra Nevada foothills, in a quaint hamlet known as Three Rivers, Gateway to the Sequoias. We are just 5 miles to the Ash Mountain entrance of Sequoia National Park.

Our cute and cozy cabin has a well-equipped kitchen and a Weber propane BBQ. The rear deck is just steps away from the Main Fork of the Kaweah River.

We are conveniently located on Sierra Drive, the main road through our small town, with the main fork of the Kaweah River just steps from your back door. The private river setting allows for a true romantic getaway. There is a fire pit by the river to enjoy an evening fire and we do supply firewood.

Relax in the Sundance Spa / hot tub on the deck overlooking the river, listen to the sounds of the river and marvel at the Blue Heron and many birds that call the river their home. You just might see some deer at the river's edge getting a drink.

River flow varies seasonally; water levels are typically highest in spring and may be very low during late summer and fall.

In the evening, relax in the lounge chairs by the river and be mesmerized by the spectacular star-studded night sky.

In the springtime, you can sit on the deck and catch a glimpse of the whitewater rafters and kayakers as they make their way down the river.

This historic cabin was originally built as a fishing retreat decades ago and has evolved a number of times since then. In the '70s it was Little Rainbow, the workshop of our local silversmith. After that it became a private residence, and later a trendy coffee house named The Cabin. The Cabin later became The Buckaroo, also a restaurant offering hamburgers and sandwiches.

We offer plush towels, quality linens and bath amenities for our guests. DirecTV and Spectrum WiFi are available as well.

IMPORTANT ITEMS TO KNOW:

TRAVEL INSURANCE
It is essential for our guests to have travel insurance.
We are in a high Fire Severity Zone. Fire season is typically August-October.
In the event that a travel disruption occurs, we ask that you are covered as we don't issue refunds or extend stays due to usually being fully booked — and recommend you contact your insurer to assist with the cost of disrupted travel arrangements.


As shown in the pictures, we are located on the main road through town and you will hear some road noise at times.


The river behind our cabin is not deep enough for swimming. When it is deep enough for swimming, it is flowing too swiftly to safely go in but makes for excellent river rafting. The water level does get low at the very end of summer / beginning of fall, until we get some rain. You can walk downriver to where the north fork of the Kaweah River joins the main fork to a swimming hole.

PLEASE NOTE: If you choose to not respect our rule for occupancy, which is 2 adults only, there will be a charge of $100 per night per additional person.

PLEASE NOTE: NO VISITING GUESTS. Only the 2 guests who have reserved the cabin are permitted to stay per our insurance carrier, because they only cover the guests in the reservation.

AIRBNB DOES NOT ALLOW THIRD-PARTY RESERVATIONS. The person who makes the reservation must be present during the stay.

CHANGING RESERVATION TO A FUTURE DATE:
You’re welcome to add day(s) to your reservation or subtract a day. Understand our cancellation policy, we cannot allow a change to a future date.


NO SMOKING INSIDE THE CABIN. We are located in an extremely high-fire hazard area.


PLEASE NOTE: NO ANIMALS of any kind are allowed at this property. Members of our family have asthma and are extremely allergic to pet hair/dander. This poses a severe health hazard to hosts' family members and therefore there are no exceptions to this rule. You will be assessed a $300 deep cleaning fee if you bring your pet(s).y

Guests will have access to everything in and around the cabin.

Since we are located on Sierra Dr., which is the main road through town, you will hear some traffic noise at times. The road is a 2-lane road (as shown in the pictures) with a posted 40 mph speed limit.

Such a beautiful little cabin on the river! Richard and Jeanie went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and comfortable. They were easy to reach when needed and were very helpful. The cabin itself had everything we needed and more!

Absolutely adorable Airbnb. Highly recommend staying longer than two days, I did not want to leave. We actually shortened our time at Sequoia National Park to relax back at the Airbnb because it was so relaxing and peaceful. Appreciate all the fine details, decorations, items we may have forgotten, and the nice card and bottle of wine welcoming us. Response, accommodating, and friendly host. Check-in/check out was easy. Close by restaurants: River View Bar and Grill (amazing views with delicious cocktails) and Gateway Restaurant steak was amazing - worth the price, huge steak. Tony’s Greek restaurant was also super cute with a gentleman playing an instrument and delicious food. Local coffee and ice cream shops - super friendly. Such a cute little town. Highly recommend!!!

We had a magical stay at this cabin! The private yard and hot tub was so beautiful day and night, we saw a family of deer cross the river 2/3 mornings. Excellent location if you’re planning on visiting Sequoia National Park. This is the kind of place you could come back to stay again and again. Richard and Jeanie were so kind and very responsive. Highly recommend!
