Boasting barbecue facilities and views of quiet street, Kings River Reflections is a recently renovated homestay situated in Sanger, 33 km from Fresno Convention Center. This property offers access to a patio, a pool table, free private parking and free WiFi. Guests can make use of the outdoor fireplace or the terrace, or enjoy views of the river and garden. We could not have asked for better hosts. Teresa and Tim were so kind and generous, and their house was gorgeous. Teresa made sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed when we got to the house, and Tim cooked up an amazing breakfast the next morning (we were lucky - breakfast is only available if they have the time to make it!). If you're visiting the Kings Canyon and Sequoia parks, there is no better place to stay.

Offering mountain views, Morning Star Vista near Yosemite - countryside with mountain views is an accommodation located in Mariposa, 47 km from Yosemite South Entrance and 50 km from Yosemite Arch Rock Entrance. The homestay provides rooms with air conditioning, free private parking and free WiFi. Highly recommended for anyone who loves wildlife and enjoys deep, thoughtful conversations with smart and insightful people. I actually saw more birds and animals around this place than in Yosemite itself! The hosts used to be park rangers, so they have incredible knowledge about all the local wildlife — it was amazing for identifying species and learning more about them. Beyond that, our conversations went far beyond small talk — they were genuinely intellectual and engaging, which I really appreciated. The room was spotless, and the view from it was absolutely stunning. Since the hosts are former rangers, they also gave us fantastic daily advice for our trips, which was incredibly helpful.
