Fantastic location for Sequoia National park and the sunsets were breathtaking from the balcony. The property was stunning with all we could have expected; like home from home!

I do not like wasting time in the car just to get from point A to point B. Location is perfect! It's 2 miles from the park entrance. This place had a great working A.C.! After spending a day in the park, it was nice to relax in a nice, cold house. The kitchen was well stocked with supplies. Mark left some snacks, which was a nice touch. The bed was so comfortable! This places was easy to find. I had no cell service, so taking screenshots of the map and Mark's directions helped.

Amazing cottage close to Sequoia National Park. The house was really clean and the location is perfect. Just a few minutes away from Sequoia National Park. Very spacious place, great for a family of 6. Mark was great, besides providing a great amount of information about the Park and the surrounding areas, he was also quite receptive. We will definitely be going back. Everything was great.

We had a fantastic stay and would definitely return. Amazing attention to detail with kitchen items—spices, cooking spray, etc. Great hot water & air conditioning was fantastic. If anything, there could have been more paper products like Kleenex and paper towels, but overall absolutely everything we needed was here!

We loved this space! The house is huge, much bigger than we expected! It would easily a big family. The biggest plus for us was proximity to Sequoia. You’re just a few miles from the entrance (about as close as you can stay without staying in the park) but we found we were also super close to a nice lake the other direction. Mark was super responsive, and accommodating. He even added some snacks and a bottle of wine. Which were so nice after a long drive up. And thankfully the house had a washer/dryer with detergent available because our daughter was a mess after the drive up! Also, the house was SO clean, which is probably my number one requirement for an Airbnb. I’d totally stay here again, and I would recommend it to friends visiting Sequoia National Park.

This house is spectacular. The location is amazing up a steep hill that overlooks the Three Rivers Valley. You fee that you are up on top of the world. There are a number of outside seating areas where you can watch the sunrise or set. The beds are very comfortable and the amenities are great. It is located 2 miles from the entrance to Sequoia National Park although it is a 40 minute to an hour drive up a very steep winding road to get to the sequoia forest. We did not find the restaurants that great although pizza at the market was okay. So we cooked in the house which has great cooking essentials. We had lovely meals overlooking the valley and then watched a full moon. It was a magical stay for us.

Mark was quick to reply and his house was even better than we expected. The space felt newly renovated and clean, the beds were comfortable and the view was really great. We were also happy to see his local recommendations and how close the house was to the Sequoia entrance. Would definitely book again!

We found the Quail’s Nest to be a wonderful place to stay for our visit to the national parks. Perfect location with beautiful views. It was very comfortable, nicely appointed (newly remodeled) and included a fully equipped kitchen with a wide array of spices. The bottle of wine was a very nice touch. Mark was very responsive throughout and quickly handled a small issue during our stay - a true professional. We would definitely stay again at the Quail’s Nest!

The 'bluejay' was well stocked and very comfortable. We cooked dinner most evenings and there were plenty of supplies available in the kitchen. The bathrooms were stocked. The EV charger is a great asset in the town. Mark is a great host. I highly recommend! 5 Stars
