Grant Grove Cabins

My wife & I really enjoyed staying in one of the tent cabins with our two kids (5&3). The beds were incredibly comfortable and the bedding provided was perfect for the cool temps. We visited at the end of July and enjoyed the cool mornings. Will definitely be staying here again!

We got a cabin in Grant Grove. We chose accommodations that had no power or bathroom. I didn’t know what to expect but it was great to semi-rough it. Toilet/showers were close and very clean. The bed was heavenly and the blanket was thick. It’s the perfect central location.

We stayed in a tent cabin at Grant Grove. It was clean and comfortable. It provides a great compromise of more comfort than traditional tent camping and a hotel room. You are closer to nature than a hotel room, but have the comfort and convenience of a bed and a place to secure your food and belongings. There is no electricity, but there is internet and phone reception. There is a central bathroom with showers. This is also in one of the most beautiful places on earth! I highly recommend it.

Great location! It was clean and the electric heater provided warmth. Hard to find when dark at night, but the 24/7 check in lodge had games, snacks you can buy, and WiFi. No cooking inside the rooms, but seems like can cook on camp stove outside rooms.

Lovely little cabins, though I honestly expected a little more in terms of amenities in the cabins themselves. I wasn't expecting the clean linens for everyone to be left outdoors on picnic tables to the elements, and it seemed like old linens were left in the cabins which were very stained and dirty lumped up on the beds (did not look anything as nice as the pictures some people posted on their reviews - maybe cleaning staff just had an off day). Thankfully the linens that were outside were stored in a pillowcase and seemed clean enough, but we were expected to change the bed linens ourselves which was a lot to manage after a very long day of driving and hiking. Besides that, the location was gorgeous and the communal restrooms and showers were quaint but well kept, and I'd absolutely go back. Park staff at the visitor center and John Muir Lodge for checkin/checkout were very kind and helpful as well. We only stayed one night, so a cabin like this was perfect. Any longer of a stay and I'd probably have preferred the lodge since we were having trouble keeping dirt off our belongings in the cabin.

Really loved our stay at the Grant Grove Cabins; my family can't wait to come back. Beds were comfortable and there was always hot water in the bathrooms and showers. We were astounded to find hotel quality fluffy white towels provided for us in the cabins and toiletries in the shower stalls. Kids enjoyed playing outside the cabins where there was plenty of space around the picnic tables. If you're noise-sensitive, bring a pair of earplugs - we had neighboring campers up and talking in the mornings at 6 AM and at night until 10 PM, so you just need to accommodate for this, especially if you have kids. We prepared for our own breakfasts and lunches - you can secure food in the hard sided, elevated tent cabins without having to use a bear locker - and treated ourselves to dinners in the park restaurants. We saw other families setting up elaborate camp kitchens in front of their cabins but we just brought our camp stove for boiling water and cooking eggs and pancakes. Most families rinsed dishes in the bathroom sinks (bring your own bin for washing and straining the dirty water) as there wasn't a spigot and drain doing this in the campground.

The tent cabins are just that, a tent with no power yet comfortable. Bring your own flashlights and something to charge your phone if you need. Bathrooms are located near the cabins with showers. I did not use the shower so I won't comment on those. One thing I will say is the staff has to be some of the kindest, most accommodating group I've ever dealt with. They took care of us like no others have and it wasn't the accommodations, it was personal need for change. They are the best and I'd recommend Grant Grove Cabins anytime.

We arrived in the early morning to Sequoia and immediately started exploring attractions. After a day of fun and adventure, we made our way to Grant Grove where we checked in at the John Muir Lodge. The lady at the front desk was super helpful in giving us our room key and room number. My kids were delighted to see all the games and snacks the lobby had to offer. They were reluctant to leave but I assured them we had packed plenty of snacks and games for ourselves to play in the cabin. We were staying in the tent cabins so after checking in we drove to the parking lot next to the cabins and started unpacking our car. There were plenty of wagons available so we didn't have to carry all our things by ourselves. We packed two wagons full of stuff and the kids had fun lugging them to our tent cabin while my wife and I pulled a wagon with the massive cooler we brought. The tent cabin itself was pretty nice. Our family is used to tent camping so this was a step-up for us. There were two beds nicely made with 4 pillows to each bed, a dresser, two bedside stands, an open closet along with some hangers, and a safe. The tent cabin itself is pretty nice as well. The whole thing was made out of wood, with no roof of course. There was a canopy type situation being held up by wooden beams. There were two windows on either side of the cabin with curtains. Although it was a little warm at first, we had the windows open, and it ventilated amazingly. We really liked Grant Grove Cabins because it's not like a lodge where your REALLY indoors, here your living in the wilderness. You step outside your cabin and you see sequoia trees all around you. There is also tables outside each of the cabins, which we found very helpful for preparing and eating meals. The shower and bathroom situations were just the topper. The bathrooms were awfully clean and had several mirrors. The showers were amazing! The water heated up so quickly and actually STAYED hot. Everything was perfectly clean too. My son did wake up with several bug bites but no matter where we're staying that always seems to occur. Waking up to the sequoia trees around you and the birds and chipmunks is just magical. On our evening walks we even saw a couple deer. One was right in front of us and my son followed it all the way to the cabins. But overall I loved this experience, my family loved this experience and we would definitely recommend to anyone who likes nature.
