The John Muir lodge was a quiet escape. The rooms were clean and close to the parking, which was included in our stay. I highly recommended this lodge!
Beth, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This was a great way to see both National Parks in a timely and convenient way. We went in May, so the rooms not having air conditioning was fine. The restaurant wasn’t running at normal hours, so that was a bit frustrating, but we navigated it and overall enjoyed our stay.
Pamela, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

John Muir Lodge is great for those wanting a basic inside-the-park experience. The rocking chairs on the porches were delightful! Our two queen room was nice and clean and included a small fridge. The only dining in the area is the park run concession which is pricey and not very good. Convenience of having a nice place to sleep close to the sights is worth it though since it is a long drive to just about any of the other available lodging.
Candace, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Friendly Staff, decent rooms. Except the shower was really short. Loved the location. Loved the rocking chairs on the decks. Would have liked a few more microwaves in the main area. But the service at the Grant Grove village was super slow and they were way under staffed! However, we Definitely will come back again! But with more of our own food!
Jessica, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Great setting and staff. Very limited parking and some outdated facilities.
John, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

John Muir Lodge was a nice hotel in a rustic setting. Close to trails and the General Grant tree. We wish their were more dining options near by.
Kenneth, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Very convenient being in Kings Canyon National Park. The rooms were quite dated & loud. Room 102 should be turned into the housekeeping closet since it is right under the stairs & you can hear every step. The restaurant didn’t have a lot of options & was slow but it was something. There is a microwave & coffee in the lobby so that was helpful.
Jason, 3-night trip

Quaint facility. Beautiful environment.
Martha, 1-night trip

Really enjoyed. Great location for King's Canyon and Sequoia NP. Wifi was surprisingly good. Fan, but no AC, so keep this in mind on a very hot day.

Convenient location for the National Parks. Restaurant was around a 7 min walk from the hotel and the food was basic and had to be ordered via screens in the lobby and was then delivered to your table. Rooms dated but clean. The
Julie, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

A nice property especially being within the national park. The room was functional and well equipped but basic. It offered everything we wanted and was very clean. The dining facilities are limited to the restaurant within the national park and a small grocery store. Any other dining options are a long way from the property. Staff were friendly and the common areas in the lodge were warm and comfortable.
Charles, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

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.
