About this property

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

The Shady Knoll

The Shady Knollis trulya great 'BnB'. Itwas created and is managed by a dedicated local Three Rivers Team. We really do care about all of our guests as you visit to "our neck of the woods". The ‘Knoll’ is located on a secluded and quiet lane only 2 miles from the Sequoia Park entrance and it really is on a Shady Knoll :)
The kitchen is fully equipped with utensils, pots, pans, dishes, spices, a blender, and a toaster, everything you would need to prepare meals in-house for those who love to cook. We also provide you with coffee and assorted teas, along with a few complimentary goodies. We provide plenty of local information and tips from your Host including where to go if you just prefer dining out! The bathrooms are always clean with plenty of fresh, clean towels. We also supply you with shampoo, conditioner, body wash.
The beds are all top of the line King size and include all new linens. These beds are comfortable! We also use hypoallergenic pillow and bed protectors for your safety and comfort.
The couches and the dining room table are comfortable as well. Yes, there is a large HD-tv and very good Wi-Fi. The Wi-Fi is good enough to stream movies 24/7 so we provide you with free Netflix!
There is a BBQ on the deck and the living room is situated to take in views of the (often) snow-peaked Sierra Mountains. The views from the front and back are some of the best in Three Rivers and each is completely different.
Relax on the huge back deck with a panoramic view of Moro Rock and Alta Peak! The small front deck looks over the whole town of Three Rivers. You will have a view of Eagles Peak and you can often hear the Kaweah River in the valley below.
Always be on the lookout for photo ops of our local wildlife and those Selfie Shots!
During your stay, you will have complete access to the home and privacy as well.
If you have any questions or need anything I am available 24/7 however it is not mandatory that we meet. Most people just want privacy and of course a clean and comfortable stay. WE GIVE YOU THAT!
COME STAY AT THE 'KNOLL'. YOU WON'T BE DISAPPOINTED!

The Shady Knoll

The Shady Knoll is a very comfortable home. We found everything we needed. It is very close and convenient to Sequoia National Park. We enjoyed the beautiful mountain views from the house in the daytime and looking at the starry skies at night. We highly recommend this place!

Awesome Views!

We had a great stay at The Shady Knoll. The house had everything we needed and more. The beds were very comfortable and good to come home to after a long day of hiking and sight seeing. It is really cool to look out the back window at Moro Rock and know we went to the top! Thanks for sharing your home with us.

Big trees and the great outdoors!

We enjoyed staying at the Shady Knoll as it was the perfect base for visiting Sequioa National Park and provided us with a very relaxing place to start and end the day. We especially enjoyed the various outdoor sitting areas around the property with terrific views in all directions. The local shops and restaurants are also recommended, especially those with areas to sit by the river. Mark was an excellent host and provided information and help to us beyond our expectations without any delay. Recommended!

Son's 30 Birthday Celebration - National Parks

The property was wonderful! Exactly as described. Kings Canyon/Sequoia visits. Literally minutes from an entrance. Nestled in the hills with wide sights. Baby deer set off the motion lights, Excellent host notes, food choices from 3 guest books recommendations.

Awesome seating areas for soaking in the beauty.

This place was absolutely amazing with numerous areas to just relax and see the beauty. The only downside was that the kitchen appears to have been overlooked in the deep cleaning process as there was food from previous visitors under the burners and the shower in one of the bathrooms had hair in it. I would still recommend booking, but would ask the owner to instruct the cleaning crew to be more thorough.

Awesome views and great host!

My family came from NC to visit Kings Canyon and Sequoia. Unfortunately due to road damage the close entrance was closed due to road damage. However Mark provided so much helpful information in advance of our trip as well as plenty of maps for us to use. It was amazingly well stocked with various kitchen amenities. The view! The pictures do not do the view Justice. The back deck was our favorite spot for the short time we were there. Highly recommend and we hope to come back again one day!

Wonderful Family Getaway

Beautiful view and great location, two miles from the Sequoia NP Ash Entrance. Wendy loved her quiet time every morning on the Boulders deck. Spectacular view of Moro Rock from the back deck. Mark couldn't have been nicer, and was responsive to our every need. It's a very nice neighborhood on the side of the hill on the way to Mineral Spring. There was a foot of new snow up in the Sierras that made our hikes perfect. An unforgettable experience at a wonderful property. Thanks Mark!

Amazing house

I cannot say enough great things about The Shady Knoll! The communication leading up to our visit was awesome, Mark made sure that we had up to date information about the National Parks and the status of the roads. And the house is just awesome, the outdoor spaces, the views, the patio built into the rocks, I could have spent a lot of time just enjoying the house, but it is just a couple of miles from Sequoia National Park, which is amazing, and then a short drive further to Kings Canyon, which is also amazing. The kitchen is great, but there are also good restaurants in town if you don't want to cook. I cannot recommend this place enough! You will not be disappointed if you choose this great place to stay!
