Montecito Sequoia Lodge

Beautiful location. Looks like a great place to vacation with kids. Food was good. We booked one of the new "architecture designed cabin in the woods" at @ $450 a night. The cabin was lovely with a wonderful deck to sit on and enjoy the view. The cabin had at least 8 kitchen cabinets and 4 drawers that were all empty . No dishes,no wine glasses, no corkscrew. Plenty of paper cups, packets of coffee, packets or sugar and creamer. We asked for wine glasses at the main lodge and were told "glass is not allowed in the cabins.🤗🤗🤗 Seems to be a resort in transition, but doesn't understand how to do "luxury".

Perfect place for family time.

Very pleased with out staying. Rooms are comfortable and the food id delicious! Trivia night at the lodge was fun! Snacks are available for the kids and adults all day. For sure we will come back.

The lodge is located inside Sequoia National Park, elevation about 7400 feet. We visited General Sherman tree and after our night stay at the lodge, it was a short drive to Kings Canyon to see General Grant tree on the other side. This quaint and rugged lodge was easy to find and parking was on site. It is family friendly with three meals included. My son enjoyed the family style hearty meals. It was a bit heavy and salty for me but I'm a senior. There were fruit, salad and other light selections. There was a roaring fire and smores after dinner. We enjoyed a gentle canoe ride on the lake before dinner. The room was clean and functional. We had a magnificent view from our room of the forest. The staff for the most part were pleasant and helpful. I highly recommend for families with children. Price was a bit high for the accommodations, but I booked late. We visited mid September and it was a bit cold at night and early morning.

We loved the property, play area for the kids and adults. The porch and the lake area to sit on in the evening. The rooms were below average and not cleaned properly.

The manager was rude. No WiFi. Didn’t offer room paid for and was told that my two little kids that they can refuse service because I raised concerns when they quoted me another price outside of what I paid for using hotels.com. It was almost 10pm and was willing to put us out. I ended up requested my money back and checked in elsewhere

No comments: just very good place with great accommodations and family friendly

For $300 a night, we got an unfurnished cabin w/o AC or bathroom, in the center of Sequoia National Park in early July peak season. However, this includes free breakfast, lunch (they also provide packed sandwich bag w/ snacks and fruits if your reservation includes it and you order the night before), dinner (salmon, rib, salad, ... It ends at 7PM, arrive at least 30 min before that!), as well as kayak, stand-up paddle, pingpong, foosball, ... Kayaking in the small lake is fun and relaxing. At night, they have camp fire and marshmallow for kids too.

The location is fantastic, beautiful scenery, camp look and feel. Many activities, pool, spa, lake, hiking, horses, etc. Food is a step above what you would expect in a kids camp with some upscale items thrown in here and there. Coffee is disgusting. Nice little bar that opens after 6pm I believe. The activities staff are great!! The hotel/other workers are either super friendly or rude. There was a billing/reservation issues and check in issues that occurred. My kids and wife loved the experience, I'm still on the fence.
