Beautiful surroundings and delicious food! We used the tennis courts and played basketball also. It was a but chilly fir swimming so we didn't use the pool or take a canoe out on the lake. The lakeside room was nicely furnished with comfortable beds.

The property itself has seen better days and the access road to get there is pretty long- we thought it was just off the main road. The rooms and hallways were in need of an update/thorough cleaning. All that said, the employees were the nicest people we encountered! The food was plentiful and good, and the dining area/great room was warm and inviting. We didn't get to experience the grounds as we were in the national parks all day, but the lake was lovely. A great family destination, but I would recommend that they limit the hot tub to adults.

Even though their bridge was still out and the drive in was an adventure, the lodge was a nice change of pace. The staff was incredibly friendly and accommodating. All meals were included and amazing! They made sure to provide labeling and alternatives for people with food allergies. As a mom and grandma of boys with allergies, this was great to see. We did not take advantage of the daily activities, as we explored the park, but were impressed by the offerings. If we returned to Sequoia National Park, we would stay there again.

Montecito Lodge is a peaceful, rustic stay near Kings Canyon. The location is beautiful, staff are friendly, and meals are hearty. Rooms are simple but clean—don’t expect luxury, but it’s perfect if you want comfort and nature in one place.
