John Muir Mini Cabin

These mini cabins are 10 x 12 foot (120 sqft) detached units with a queen bed on the ground floor and a queen bed located in the upper loft. The 10 x 6 foot (60 sqft) loft is accessible by ladder and is NOT recommended for mobility-challenged guests. These cabins are equipped with an air conditioner, fan, heater, free WIFI, and overhead reading lights. We consider them an economical and comfortable alternative to resort stays for your vacation in Kings Canyon & Sequoia National Parks. Save your money for the parks, spend more time in the outdoors!

A smart tv in the cabin connects to multiple free channels but you are welcome to login your own accounts to watch your favorite on demand or live tv. Remember to unlink your streaming service accounts upon departure.

With a seasonal onsite restaurant, you can choose to eat a professionally prepared meal or you can choose to bring your own food and book the communal kitchen stocked with a fridge/freezer, microwave, sink, stove top, air fryer, plates, cups, utensils, cooking utensils, pots and pans, and a coffee pot. Restaurant hours vary depending on the season. You can find our menu and hours here: https://www.genassierrainn.com/order-online

The mini cabins village is located at the base of the property and is enclosed by a white picket fence. Communal restrooms are located at the far end but not further than 75 feet from any unit. The bookable kitchen and laundry facility is next to the restroom.
