This place can be called "rustic." The room is tiny, but functional. Clean, quiet, comfortable bed. But the location is awesome! Just minutes from Kings Canyon. A longer drive to Sequoia. Surrounded by the foothills of the Sierras. Gena is a delight, the restaurant is great.

10/10 Exceptional

I stayed in the creekside cabin, which was a wonderful for some privacy and a little extra space. It's a cozy room, but big enough for a few folks. I was traveling solo for a job in Kings Canyon and loved the solitude with green nature out the door, and a good space to do yoga while looking out on the landscape. Keep in mind, there isn't much to cook with other than a microwave, so plan accordingly. Beyond that, I had a lovely time in this space.

We love Gena’s!

Great home base for seeing Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Park! Perfect location, friendly staff, we stayed two nights in the super cute motel and ate at the restaurant - the food and local beers were delicious! I stayed here a few years ago and loved it so much I was sure to book a stay at Gena’s again for this trip. We will be back!

Close to the Kings Canyon park entrance, which is what we were looking for! Rooms are small but decent. Pretty good amenities given how far away it is from the city.
