Loved being so close to Sequoia Park, and truthfully we mostly used it just to rest before and after the park. I did find myself wondering why the quilts were ugly-side-out. The area around where the rooms are was a little worse for wear. But the room was clean enough, and I really, truly loved the sheets that were on the bed.

If you’re looking for a tiny (5 room) road side place to sleep this motel serves that purpose. It’s about a 40 minute to the entrance of Sequoia and there are no services near by. Host was very pleasant.

Squaw Valley peaceful stay
The place is quiet. I love that the place is only 30 mins away from Kings Canyon. There is also a Dollar General store across so you can always drive back and forth for some necessities. Pet friendly, with very minimal fee. Bed was comfy, room was well kept with quaint designs, makes you feel at home. It will be nice to have more coffee selections, the coffee had in our room was blah. Overall it was an awesome stay!

The property is dated and in need of a little upkeep. Although we arrived in the late afternoon, during standard check-in hours, the office was locked and it was challenging to figure out how to check in. Unfortunately the pool was out of order, and given the hot August weather, it would have been nice to use the pool.
Overall we enjoyed our stay, and it was a good value considering the proximity to King's Canyon National Park.

The is a very quaint little travel motel that is perfect for an affordable alternative to in park lodges. The rooms are small and maybe a bit over decorated. The only complaint I have is the AC unit is high on the wall in a corner over the bed. You literally have to stand on the bed to adjust it. Who thought that was a good idea?!
That said I would definately stay again just for the value.

Probably should be rated 1 or 2 star
Spent one night here on a larger trip. The exterior doesnt present well but the room was clean. It was very small. Quiet,comfortable bed. Fine if you manage your expectations. It is a roadside motel afterall. Probably should be rated a 1 or 2 star.

I can’t believe this motel is in business. The property is disgusting, the walls in the room are dirty, and the man checking us in was either drunk or high. We walked away from the motel and drove to a Hampton Inn. The manager refused to refund me my money. The write-up online made the motel sound like a family run well taken care of motel. Instead it was the most disgusting place I have ever walked in to. I have traveled across the country for over 60 years and never felt so concerned for my safety.

The room was small, but well kept. The shower had an odd nozzle that was more like a pressure washer. The soap provided was a small, broken bar. I'd recommend bringing your own and shampoo/conditioner. Check in was easy, however no sign they were open, a faded white board had a phone number on it/ ring door bell was how you'd be able to get in to check in. Office reeked of cigarette smoke. The gentleman who checked us in was polite and was quick.
Heard there was a pool but didn't go by since during the day we were gone.
