If you are lucky enough to find accommodations within the park, I would take it despite the high prices. I have stayed both inside the park and outside the park and it’s not worth the extra two hours round-trip driving if you stay outside the park. Staff was always super friendly. There’s even a convenient gas station at the hotel. Sure, it is overpriced but the convenience makes it worth it

The property was very dirty and unkept. The front entry was filthy and looked like it had not been swept in months. The rooms were okay with some mold in the shower. The hotel has potential but needs an engaged staff that cares.

This was a great property remember it's very old and rustic with that said, I wish I had known there was only fans for cooling and they had not been cleaned in forever so when you turn them on dust flies everywhere or at least in room 5...other then that... The room was clean and fresh and the staff was very nice and the food for breakfast was all fresh and wonderful...

Stony Creek Lodge is in a favorable location on the edge of Sequoia National Park. The location saves significant driving time leaving the park to find better lodging. Otherwise, it is an old, rustic property with paper thin walls and limited food offerings of poor quality.

Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
The location to the park was good, the check-in and check-out process was easy, and the room was quiet. It also had breakfast included, a restaurant on site, gas pumps on site, and a little convenience store/gift shop. The rooms were outdated and a little run down, the matress was old and bouncy, and in my opinion overpriced. The staff were friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable of the parks.

For $295 (including tax) we had a bathroom where the sink faucet only dribbled out water. We had to wash our hands and faces in the shower with cold water. Property is overpriced and in very poor condition. The staff was nice but inexperienced.

Ok for a night stay

We decided to stay here as it was the only convenience location available in the park. It’s an ok place for a night stay. You sacrifice comfort for convenience. Could use some updates. The staff was super friendly and helpful!
