Buckeye Tree Lodge

My overall experience was very good. We rented the Falcon cabin. It was an upstairs cabin of a 2 story cabin with a private entry. It was somewhat challenging carrying luggage up & down the stairs. The cabin was spacious, clean & well equipped. Nice size fridge & eating utensils if you choose to cook. The cabin is not very well lit. If you are taller than 6’4” you will troubles in the shower due to ceiling & beam height. You can’t beat the location if you are looking to be close to Sequoia NP, however the drive to King’s Canyon NP is a haul, whether you chose your go thru Sequoia or go around the park using hwys. The cabins are only walkable to a somewhat pricey restaurant, so you will have to drive 10-15 min for groceries or other restaurants. I would consider staying here again, but Id research other cabins also.

This place was wonderful. View off the balcony was right over a river. And only 2 minutes from the park entrance. Clean, comfortable beds. Movies to borrow. Great local advice. Staff was very friendly and accommodating to any needs we had. Will definitely stay here again

We stayed at the Dogwood Cabin for 6 nights. The cabin was amazing and our entire family (4) which included our two boxer pups fit perfectly. The location of Buckeye can’t get any better, you are literally less then 5 mins to the entry gate of Sequoia National Park and about 10 mins the opposite directions is Three Rivers where you can access the Kaweah River through several marked areas. Not to mention the Kaweah River is right behind Buckeye Tree Lodge, you can hear it if you just open the windows. Our trip was relaxing and fun. We will definitely come back in the near future. Also the staff at Buckeye were amazing, nice, Friendly and helpful. Thanks for an amazing stay.

My friend and l had a fabulous stay at Buckeye Tree Lodge - literally 1/4 mile from entrance to Sequoia Natl. park and located right on the Kaweah river with beautiful views which you can access from your back door. The staff was super friendly and helpful and the room was awesome - very roomy with a mini fridge, microwave and coffee maker and all the amenities you would need for a short stay - and super clean on top of it all! Definitely will be our choice next time we visit the park!

The place is magical. We stayed as a family of four. The place has it all. It’s half mile from sequoia foothills entrance. There is a very good restaurant beside the lodge with a discount since we are staying at the lodge, their food is great by the way 😀,there is a swing for your kids by the river, there is a river by the balcony of our place, we did picnic by the river after a long sequoia trip. This place is a gem. The beds are comfortable and we all slept like babies. Rose is wonderful, she assisted our every needs, gave us some tips on our trip to sequoia. She is lovely. ❤️❤️❤️😍😍😍😍😍Love this pace and will recommend it to family and friends.

I've spent many nights in towns outside National Parks and good accommodation can be hard to find. I'm very pleased to have found the Buckeye. Booking was easy, the follow up phone call courteous, and the room (#5) was updated and comfortable. The bar/restaurant next door meant the location outside Three Rivers had no downside. The proximity to the park made an early start easier. My only regret was that I only stayed one night.

I led a women's retreat here and it was the most amazing experience. Not only was Shannon (the owner) an absolute delight to work with, the actual lodge is a very special place. The grounds were beautifully kept with benches and tables to sit by the river. We stayed in The Riverhouse which was a perfect central gathering place for attendees. Nice and cozy, plenty of room, great views. The beds were comfy with plenty of pillows and blankets. Bathrooms had sustainable bodycare products that were a welcomed complement since so many places only offer single use items with harmful ingredients. We had the yoga loft as part of our retreat rental and it was full of all the yoga props we needed for our restorative yoga classes: bolsters, blankets, blocks, straps, and even sandbags. We could open the windows and hear the sounds of the river down below. The lights were dimmable so it created a calming ambience for our classes. Being so close to the entrance of Sequoia National Forest was a huge plus too! There's little to no service which helped us unplug and slow down enough to enjoy the beauty all around. There is WiFi that worked for basic things like texting, calling, emailing, and scrolling. All in all, I can't recommend this place enough! And if you're leading a retreat there or bringing a group and want a private chef, hire Ari Noelke! She was so so accommodating of the various dietary restrictions some of the attendees had. She was also a delight to work with and the food was so delicious! And if you want a hiking guide for the park, hire Krista from Sequoia Guides! She offered a beautiful blend of science and sacred while we met some of the giant sequoias and made the whole experience that much more special for all of us.

Had rooms 8 & 9. Very comfortable with great balcony near the river. Friendly service. Less than 1 minute from the entrance of Sequoia NP. Nearby restaurant (100 feet) with very good food right on the river

The front desk personnel were friendly and helpful with all our questions regarding the lodge. Wonderful garden with bbq’s, chairs and umbrellas just steps away from the river. Bob repaired the A/C promptly. A 3 inch foam mattress cover would help with the hard bed. The room was very small but freshly painted and clean. Well equipped for an old motor lodge. We brought yogurt and granola for breakfast. They provided local coffee beans , a grinder and a 4 cup coffee maker and the extras, cream and sugar for morning coffee at the indoor table. We called it the cafe. The pool was open but very cold, so we didn’t get in. Very close to Sequoia Park entrance .
