About this house rental
Welcome to Three Rivers - gateway to Sequoia National Park! This is the perfect time to escape from the city for a few days and spend some quiet time visiting the magnificent giant trees.
The Blue Oak Bungalow is nestled in the peaceful Alta Acres neighborhood of Three Rivers, only 3 miles from Sequoia National Park. The property is made up of 2 parts; the main house and a cozy detached studio just a couple of steps away. Built in 1956, this charming home masterfully combines the classic architecture from that era with a colorful modern flare that creates the perfect balance of old & new. The owner has lovingly restored, refurnished and redecorated the home with your comfort and enjoyment as a priority. Add to that the fact that he chose a manager whose houses have been voted "Best Vacation Home in Kaweah Country" for five years in a row, and you have the makings for a perfect experience.
The main house opens into a brilliant living room featuring floor to ceiling windows showcasing the Sierra Nevada mountains. You'll find lots of comfy seating, a woodstove, large screen smart TV and amazing local artwork adorning the walls. The open floor plan includes a dining table that will seat six and a full kitchen complete with a brand new gas oven & stovetop, new refrigerator/freezer, microwave, Keurig coffee maker, blender, cookware, dinnerware...you name it. The bedroom contains a brand new Cal King bed, large mirrored closet and a view of the garden and mountain peaks of Sequoia National Park. The bathroom features a wonderful claw foot bathtub with shower curtain enclosure, mirrored vanity, plenty of room, and towel sets for everyone. The temperature of the house can easily be controlled by a Nest thermostat. No matter how hot or cold it is outside, you will be very comfortable inside.
The adjacent studio (just a couple of steps away) is perfect for those in your party that prefer a bit more privacy. Inside you will find a bedroom with a new Cal King bed, outstanding views of the great outdoors, coffee service, mini fridge, big closet, cabinets for your storage and a full bathroom with tub/shower. We provide a double bed size Memory Foam fold-out mattress with linens if you need additional sleeping space in the studio. The studio's climate is controlled by a ductless mini-split offering both heating & cooling in an efficient and quiet manner.
We happily provide unlimited hi-speed internet (Spectrum approx 75Mbps download speed) for our guests who like to stay connected or are on a working vacation. The smart television is not connected to cable or satellite, but does offer Netflix and guests are welcome to access their own accounts as well (don't forget to bring your password).
The front garden is a cornucopia of colorful plants and fun seating areas. A propane BBQ grill is provided.
The town of Three Rivers, population under 3,000, has its own elementary school, several churches, hotels, gas stations, grocery stores, cool restaurants, a brewery, hardware store, a bank, and a handful of unique stores offering local arts & crafts. The town's boundary runs right up to the park entrance so you can't get any closer to Sequoia than Three Rivers if you are looking for convenient lodging while exploring the giant sequoias.
Come, be our guest at the Blue Oak Bungalow where you will feel the warmth of our hospitality, and the memories you take home will be enhanced by your stay in our little neck of the woods.
If you are traveling with four-legged family members, we do welcome them but ask that you follow the guidelines explained in the "Pet Addendum" portion of our Rental Agreement.
**Please trust that we will go above and beyond to exceed your expectations. Thank you for including the Blue Oak Bungalow in your accommodation options.**

What a beautiful home! We loved the layout and all the amenities that came with it. Extremely comfortable and very convenient to the Park entrance. Robin was spot on with all communication and recommendations. Could not ask for a better home! The wildlife of the neighborhood was a sweet bonus too! Highly recommend!

The pictures did not do this house justice. The pictures aren’t bad, but we found the house(s), its abundance of natural light, and the views to be quite beautiful. There is a main building and a close but detached studio, each laid out well to maximize space and with thoughtful mid century modern design touches. The home is well stocked, better than most we’ve stayed in. There was laundry detergent for the washer, personal care supplies in the bathrooms (soap, shampoo, conditioner, basic bandaid or ailment supplies, extra toothbrush, etc), and the kitchen had a full assortment of cooking utensils, k-cup machine with coffee pods, leftovers containers, an assortment of towels, and a full rotating spice rack. The stove looked brand new. Robin is a conscientious communicator and even had a fresh loaf of sourdough waiting in the kitchen when we arrived. We used it to start each morning with homemade avocado toast with over easy eggs. It was delicious. The residence is four miles from the Sequoia NP entrance which was very convenient in helping us avoid park traffic for our earlier morning Crystal Cave tour reservations. We have stayed at a couple of luxury homes with full on game rooms, and don’t get me wrong, those are fun experiences. But this is the house my kids asked to come back to, because it feels like an intimate home. They said we could skip the parks next time and just relax at Robin’s house and play her board games or read her books. :-)

This house and property were very well set-up and maintained and a great location for exploring the national parks. We loved sitting out in the backyard in the evening. The house itself was immaculate and very well thought out with lots of little touches that made us feel right at home. Great communication with the host and check in was super easy with the code. We use VRBO all the time and this was one of our favorite stays!

Our stay at Blue Oak Bungalow was absolutely amazing. The property is beautiful, cozy, tastefully decorated, and conveniently located within minutes from the entrance to Sequoia National Park (disclaimer: from the entrance to the park, you still need to drive about an hour to get to the trees). An abundance of natural light flows into the home through its many windows, allowing you to take in the views of the surrounding area and observe local wildlife enjoying the grounds. We saw plenty of squirrels, birds, and a couple of wild turkeys. The layout of the home, with the second room being its own casita off of the main house affords privacy, which my adult son enjoyed. My only regret is that we weren’t able to stay longer. 10 out of 10; highly recommend!
