The Bottom Line

Our Rating: Five Stars

At Sequoia High Sierra Camp, you can enjoy all the pleasure of camping in the wilderness with none of the inconvenience. We seldom give any property a five-star rating, but the Sequoia High Sierra Camp earns our highest praise in every aspect. Not only are the accommodations comfortable, the views stellar and the cuisine yummy, but it's an excellent value for money as well.

Pros

  • Beautiful location in the mountains
  • Location close to a trailhead makes it very easy to get to
  • Comfortable beds
  • Good food
  • Friendly, helpful hosts

Cons

  • During wet weather, the trail into camp can get quite muddy. Be sure you wear good hiking boots
  • Because of the remote location, guest provisions are ordered and transported in advance. Your credit card will be charged in full when you reserve. Cancellations and changes must be made at least 30 days before the scheduled arrival date or you will forfeit your payment. If you're unsure about whether you'll be able to go, we suggest buying travel insurance.
