Relaxing and quiet resort close to King’s Canyon.
Jeff, 1-night trip

The room was felt new and very comfortable. Loved the atmosphere around the resort. Felt like going to an adult summer camp. Very low key, happy hour, live music at night, killer sunsets. Would highly recommend.

6/10 Good

We enjoyed our stay at Kings Canyon resort. Disappointed that the restaurant was closed. When paying $500+ per night don’t expect to have just pub meals for dinner. Staff were excellent
Jann, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We landed our plane at nearby Kings Canyon Station. A staff manager from Discover came to collect us. They also dropped back to our plane the next day. They were most helpful, unlike Kings Canyon Station staff (manager) who were not very friendly (except for the lady at Reception taking our landing and overnight Fee who was nice)

Basic hotel

One room was great the deluxe the other room really nit worth the price a bit like sleeping in a container there was an awful smell and the air conditioner not great a lot of money for basic accommodation
karen, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Would recommend but just for one night

Room was okay for one night- tired paintwork but clean enough and toilet block and showers were clean with plenty of hot water in the showers The bar was great- good value happy hour and large selection of food. Food was a little dry but okay. Had the buffet breakfast which was good value Would recommend if passing through and need a place for one night We stayed in the basic room- double bed but not en suite
