    indigenous culture
    spacious bathrooms
    guided hikes
    overpriced dining

    We enjoyed the beautiful location near Kings Canyon and found plenty of opportunities to immerse ourselves in the area's rich Indigenous culture through guided hikes. The kids loved the spacious bathrooms and the onsite restaurant where we could relax after a long day of exploring.

    In my wife’s opinion, the prices for food and drinks were outrageous. We wish there were more family-friendly dining options at reasonable prices.

    The highlight of my stay was the fantastic view from our balcony—absolutely stunning! The room itself was nice, but the air conditioning was noisy. Would recommend for the view alone! 🌄

    gorgeous scenery
    noisy air conditioning

    Waking up to gorgeous scenery was incredible. The quiet atmosphere complemented the spacious room, and the breakfast selection was delightful, introducing me to local flavors.

    However, the air conditioning struggled, making it hard to stay cool during the hot nights. A few maintenance concerns were also noticeable, but they didn’t overshadow the beauty.

    Those home-made muffins at breakfast were the real MVPs, soft and bursting with flavor! Plus, the location was spot-on for exploring Kings Canyon. The staff was friendly and the room had some modern perks, like a spacious bathroom with a rain shower.

    local trails
    shared bathroom upkeep

    The pool was fantastic for the kids, and we enjoyed easy access to nearby walking trails that showed off the amazing local bushland. The common area was a great spot for breakfast, and it made family meals enjoyable for all of us.

    My kids wished for a daily cleaning of shared bathrooms.

    The best part was having a spacious room with a view to relax after hiking! Super cozy beds, but the air conditioning unit outside was really noisy at night. 😴

    small pool area

    We had a wonderful time exploring the gorgeous surroundings. The room was spacious and clean, perfect for our family. There were tons of fun activities to do like hiking and enjoying the peaceful atmosphere, making it a great family getaway.

    comfortable stay
    helpful staff
    scenic views
    maintenance issues
    run-down areas

    I enjoyed a comfortable stay and appreciated having a warm breakfast option. Being so close to the canyon was convenient for hiking. The staff was helpful, which made a difference in my experience. The scenic views from the balcony were a highlight for relaxing after a long day. It reminded me of road trips in my home country.

    The outside of our room had maintenance issues that needed attention. Some areas of the resort felt a bit run-down despite the otherwise pleasant stay.
