We are a family of four (2 adults, 11 and 9 year olds) and we stayed in here as part of a 3 week holiday in California. We really enjoyed our 3 day stay at the Lodge. It is right in the middle of the forest and is so quiet that we saw deer just outside the window. The check... more

You are either a fan of National Park Lodges or you are not. This one is about as close as you can get to traditional "parkitecture" in Sequoia/Kings Canyon; it's really a modern Days Inn type structure with a lot of lipstick to make it feel like a National Park Lodge. The fact is that the original classic Sequoia/Kings Canyon... more

No complaints. Quiet. Plenty of room. Comfortable beds. Beautiful Scenery. Very close to Visitor's Center, Restaurant, Grants Grove and other things. My wife and I took our two 8 year old granddchildren and had a great time hiking, going on nature walks with the rangers, going to the great visitors center, enjoying the campfire and talk by 'John Muir'. Meals... more

When staying in a NP I always go into it expecting the least and hoping for more. Muir Lodge is a newer building and the rooms were surprisingly big. Also had internet access in the lobby/sitting area. Food options in Grant Grove are expensive and limited. Only stayed 1 night but if I had more time would definitely stay here... more

We've stayed at many national park lodges and cabins before and knew to expect the accommodations might be 'rustic'. In fact the John Muir Lodge is quite modern compared to most having been built in 2000 (per a plaque on the building). We had a quite large room with 2 queens. The furnishing was a little sparse and the lights... more

No need to hype the location--couldn't be better. But the rooms are poorly furnished, poorly attended, and poorly lighted. Our group had two rooms and we all had the same general complaints. 1. Sinks and showers drained very, very slowly. 2. Towels were tissue thin. 3. One toilet was completely missing a seat lid. 4. Housekeeping was very poor: used... more

We stayed 2 nights on Jan 19-21, 2008. Finally, there are no TV. We could talk to my small kids and play cards at night. more

We did not expect much, but we were surprised, the rooms were large and very clean. However kids ran up and down the halls for about an hour after quite time. Besides that nice stay for the price and location more

My wife and I stayed here, at Grant Grove, for the second time recently, not because we thought it so great 3 or 4 years before when there, but because there seemed to be no real alternative which suited the limited time we had and where we wanted to visit in the park. Having been before, we knew to expect... more
