Our neighborhood is a spacious rural area just off the North Fork of the Kaweah River. We are located down about a mile dirt road past the Lions Roping Area and right next to the world-renowned Riata Ranch International. A performance and trick riding organization that offers daily horseback trail rides around the ranch, along the river and amongst the beautiful foothills of the Sierra Nevada mountain range. There is minimal traffic and noise in our area and we respect and value our neighbors who call this area home year round. We hope that you will do the same. It is a peaceful and majestic place. You can walk along the dirt roads and see many horses, cows, ponies, birds and even deer. We are also only about 3 miles from a local shops and restaurants.

Respectful Considerations & House Rules
We ask that you treat our home with the same respect that you do your own.

No open flames or candles are allowed on the property. Fire danger is a concern in the summer months so please NO fires or open flames. You may use the wood burning stoves inside the Lodge during the Winter/Spring months October-March. Please dispose of cooled ashes in the metal ash can prior to leaving so the stove is ready for the next guest. Do NOT put ashes in the regular trash can put them in the metal can labeled "Ashes" that is located on the deck.

This is a non-smoking home. A $300 fine for odor removal service if weed or cigarettes or smoke is detected inside.

Please respect the neighborhood and those around you by adhering to courtesy quiet hours after 10 pm for our neighbors. Also sound tends to echo a lot as we are located in a ravine between two mountain ranges.

Only guests who are on the original booking are allowed stay overnight. The primary renter is required to disclose exact guest count (adults, children & infants) upon booking and/or prior to arrival. Limit to 10 overnight guests and limit on additional daytime guests to 4 people. In the event that the occupancy maximum is violated guests will be asked to leave without refund.

Absolutely no parties or weddings on the property.

We do have 2 exterior security cameras located on the garage and the front door. This is to ensure that the property is safe and secure while not occupied and to fulfill our responsibility in monitoring compliance with county requirements on occupancy restrictions.

Safety Considerations Around the Property

There's plenty of wildlife since our lodge is nestled in a majestic mountain/ranch area. That can cause unexpected wildlife appearances on the property ranging from ants, spiders, scorpions, snakes, raccoons, bobcats, to bears. Please be mindful that this was their home first before we harmoniously moved into share their territory. If wildlife visits during your stay, as our backyard is the National Forest, we will not issue a refund if this occurs. We warmly suggest booking elsewhere if this will be an issue for you and your guests. Please be respectful and cautious of the wildlife during your stay and do not feed them.

Watch for Rattlesnakes around the property during the warm winter months as the sequoia national park area is home to these incredible reptiles.

Insect & Pest Control Sprays bi-weekly but the Sequoia's is home to insects, spiders and scorpions. The scorpions are not deadly but do sting much like a bee sting. If you see a scorpion on the floor (even if it looks dead) don't pick it up or step on it, swat it with the fly swatter and dispose of it.

Do not mess with or enter the jacuzzi tub that is located on the deck. It is out of service and being renovated. We hope to have it operational by 2024!

Watch your step when going down stairs and around balconies. The game room has a very small unique sized step down so watch your step there as well.

There are two twin bunk beds, please use caution when climbing ladder to get on and off of bunk beds. Do not leave children unattended on bunkbeds.
