"Staying at Sequoia Falls is an amazing experience. "
Staying at Sequoia Falls is an amazing experience. The setting on the river is so serene and provided many hours of enjoyment for my entire family. The house is thoughtfully decorated and the kitchen is well stocked. The host/owner, Chris, was so gracious and prompt in his communication and provided us with many referrals and suggestions for the area including hikes, restaurants and day trips. We really enjoyed our stay at Sequoia Falls and we will definitely be back!

"This house was perfection in so many ways."
This house was perfection in so many ways. Came here with a few friends, and we were all blissed out by being there. So many things to love about this house, the location, the impeccable design, the plethora of great books and magazines, the steam room in the primary! Every last detail is thought of, they even laid out beds for our dogs, which they absolutely loved. I cannot wait to go back!

"This property is spectacular inside and out and just as pictured but in person, even more unbelievable if that was possible.."
This property is spectacular inside and out and just as pictured but in person, even more unbelievable if that was possible. The owner has made this property feel like your own personal resort. The surroundings are stunning as is the house and we have rented many upscale vacation homes but none have compared, even a beach property in Malibu Ca. Also the kitchen was equipped with any appliance one could need as well as an abundance of cooking utensils dishes etc. We were greeted with a beautiful, generous local gift basket filled with organic fruits, vegetables and delicious baked goods. So appreciated, welcoming and unexpected. There were ample fresh coffee beans for the week complete with a grinder , another great surprise. And there is even a beautiful guest house. The WiFi worked perfectly and each large screen TV came equipped with Apple TV and many other apps. My entire family can’t wait to return.

"Everything is designed so well, the surroundings are breathtaking..."
We love coming to this beautiful and thoughtfully prepared property. It’s our second time staying here and we can’t wait to come back. Everything is designed so well, the surroundings are breathtaking and the house has everything you could possibly need. Chris is a very kind, communicative and accommodating host. Thanks for everything!

"We left completely relaxed and at peace and are already planning our next visit."
We stayed at one of Chris' previous properties, Kaweah Falls, nine years ago for my partner's 40th and thought it would be fun to stay at Sequoia Falls for my 40th this year. As beautiful as Kaweah Falls was, Sequoia Falls exceeded every expectation we had. We arrived to beautiful baskets of fruit, a lovely note, and handmade muffins from Maria (the same muffins I had nine years ago, which were so delicious I talked about them for months afterwards). As other commenters have said, it's the details that make Chris' properties so special. It takes a unique talent to make people from around the world feel like a rental property is THEIR home but that's exactly what Chris does. I highly recommend exploring the property and taking in all the little touches that make this place so warm and inviting, from the heron weathervane to the countless seating options to the extensive library of curated reading options (John Muir's books were a favorite). We left completely relaxed and at peace and are already planning our next visit.

"The absolute beauty of and proximity to the river must be seen to be believed."
Sequoia Falls is one of the most extraordinary properties I have ever had the privilege of experiencing. Every inch of the residences has been thoughtfully considered. The absolute beauty of and proximity to the river must be seen to be believed.

"... our trip was fabulous because of the natural setting, beautiful home and Chris’ generous hospitality. "
I booked this beautiful home a year ago and was super excited for our visit. It did not disappoint, our trip was fabulous because of the natural setting, beautiful home and Chris’ generous hospitality. We were perfectly happy and comfortable staying riverside, inside or lounging on the deck. The house was well stocked and aesthetically pleasing with lots to look at and admire. I was thrilled to browse and borrow a variety of books and got to indulge with my favorite authors while dipping my feet in the cool river water. I look forward to being lucky enough to score some more days at Sequoia Falls in the near future.

"Everything at this beautiful place was exceptional!"
Everything at this beautiful place was exceptional! Not a single detail was missed in making sure that our stay was enjoyable, from the fresh basket of local baked goods and produce left for us once we arrived, to the gorgeous home that felt like a spa retreat, and in a setting that allowed us to enjoy all the best of nature. We can not wait to book our next trip here!

"Sequoia Falls was the best rental we’ve stayed at by far."
Sequoia Falls was the best rental we’ve stayed at by far. We had a group of family with kids ranging from 16 yrs old to 6 months and everyone had a great time. Chris has set up so many peaceful zones with plenty of swings, seating to make a chill spot for one or two people or the whole family. The inside of the house is super comfortable with very nice furniture, decor, extras to make you feel at home. We loved the beautiful ceiling fans, the soft sheets/blankets and the plentiful kitchen. I personally loved the body wash in the shower- smelled amazing! Chris was also friendly, responsive and super accommodating to us. I think the host makes this place outstanding. We followed his secret swimming hole advice and had a private swimming spot all to ourselves. If you are considering visiting this area, this property is worth every penny, we’ll be back for sure!

"Absolute magical perfection."
“Absolute magical perfection. This house has a perfect score for a reason. The property is peaceful magic and the house is so cozy with views from every window. There are too many fantastic places to sit on the property and relax and exploring the rocks and river never got old. Chris is a fantastic and fast communicator and host and every little detail is well thought out. We can’t thank you enough for a dream trip. We’ll be back!”

"The house is wonderfully comfortable and super chic."
“This is our third time at this house—we just can’t get enough of the beautiful setting! The house is wonderfully comfortable and super chic. Everything you need in the kitchen (spices, garbage bags, napkins, etc.) is readily available. A treat on all fronts!”

"What a place!"
What a place! The location is so beautiful that I liked it more than the visit to the national park. 10 mins to the park entrance and 5 minutes to town. Feels like you are all by your self at this property. Amazing beach for the kids to play (yes they have sand toys), and a great place to swim. The balcony is perfect for relaxing and enjoying the incredible view. House is well done, super clean, and has a great host. All the details are thought of to make this a great stay even for the pickiest of travelers. I don't know how another rental house can possibly be better than this one.

“I don't even know where to begin. The house truly exceeded expectations."
“I don't even know where to begin. The house truly exceeded expectations. The design of the house itself is great--super functional and really well-done. The setting/grounds are incredible. There are comfortable seating and dining locations everywhere. It seemed like every hour we found some awesome new place to take in the mountains and river. There was a lot of thought given to the house and the grounds, and it comes through. We had so much fun with our kids and my parents making a bonfire by the river, swinging in the hammocks, having drinks on the porch and laying out on the rocks. In addition, the house is very close to town and very close to the national parks. Chris is a true professional--very responsive and thoughtful. It felt like we were staying at a 5 star resort. We will definitely be back!”

“Chris has copious amounts of 5 star reviews for a reason... he has perfected the Airbnb experience."
“Chris has copious amounts of 5 star reviews for a reason... he has perfected the Airbnb experience. The extra love and care that goes into maintaining his home is obvious. The style, the details, the furnishing, the bedding, the lighting and more is all top notch and beautiful. Every turn on the property has a delightfully surprising gem of a hang out spot. Waking up to the sound of the river every day was magical. The only downside is that so many people know about this special property so it’s booked ALL the time! Don’t think too long about booking it... even if it’s 6-12 months away... just do it. You will be grateful that you did!!!”

"Simply amazing."
This home and property are the best thing in our lives for the last year. It is a home you want to just sit back and enjoy - listen to the river, unwind, and enjoy the open, quiet space. Simply amazing.
