Just stayed for one evening before visiting Sequoia National Park. Room was clean, comfortable, and quiet. Check in was easy. Staff was great. Had dinner at the River View Bar & Grill. Hamburger was excellent! Had breakfast the following morning on the way to the park at the Gateway Restaurant (along the river) and it was excellent as well. If staying in Three Rivers, the Lazy J would be the place to stay!

It's a great solution to get away from the fireworks with your dog. Staff was nice. There were some stains on the comforter and I had a lot of trouble trying to get cold water from the sink faucet. There was also only one channel on the television. But they did have a DVD player. The deadbolt didn't lock on the door. Other than that it was good.

Highly Recommended Quaint Motel

Probably one of the best managed hotels I’ve stayed in. Easy check-in, friendly staff, ample amenities, very helpful on recommendations for local attractions, and facility was very comfortable, clean and host very welcoming. Owners were obviously personally involved in operating motel and it showed.

Amazing for adventurous families

Jane and her whole family were amazing. We had so much fun with the baby goats, they were adorable. The brown cow in the front yard greeted us every morning on our way to pick up a fantastic homemade pastrie and eggs AND every evening upon our return from amazing local journies. The place had everything we could ask for during our stay, we would definitely stay again!

Lazy J motel had great rooms and amenities. Check in was seamless, more like a little cottage room. Housekeeping did a wonderful job keeping us stocked on items. Animals in the back with a beautiful view. I would recommend this Motel for anyone visiting the national park. They were very welcoming and friendly.

My husband and I loved staying here during our first visit to Sequoia National Park. The manager was very helpful with providing a map of the town and a list of restaurants sorted by distance to the motel. This is a really nice, family friendly motel with farm animals, a pool, a playground, and a library of movies to rent. I only marked down one star because the TV in our room seemed to buffer a lot, but that could just be due to the mountain location. Really not a big deal though. The location is very conveniently close to the park and many local restaurants and shops. We definitely plan to return here when we have our own family of little ones to entertain!
