John Muir lodge is the only place where to spend the night outside the north part of Sequoia Park. Very basic lodge for the price. Limited water pressure in shower. Clean and large room. No A/C only heater. Coffee in the room but no breakfast at the lodge. The restaurant is 5 min walk from there to offer basic lunch, diner and breakfast.

It's showing its age a little bit but the rooms have everything you need and the location is to die for. The restaurant is nearby and has a basic but adequate menu.

We couldn’t sleep because of an intermittent noise the whole night! We thought it was the heater but after struggling to sleep the whole night we found out it was the refrigerator unit that was old and was making that sound! The keurig coffee maker had water left over from who knows when… so we chose not to use it since couldn t clean it…Also the dining choices were very limited and the only restaurant in the property food was like can food😩. Hope they improve that too. But otherwise rooms were clean😊
