This restaurant and lodge makes you want to come back. I did just that, 6 weeks later. The owner and staff are exceptionally friendly and eager to please. The food is excellent and the views are even better. Stayed in room 6 (this trip) and room 7 last time. Both offer great views of the river and surrounding mountains.
Thank you Glenn, Susan, Kyle, Ruthie and Lauren!

Enjoyed our recent stay. Great value at $99 per night. And with the big hills of Sequoia National Park, it was great starting out with a full charge thanks to the two onsite Tesla destination chargers. We also enjoyed the restaurant. We drank in the bar upon arrival and ate lunch before we departed the next day. Great food and river views. We’ll definitely stay here again.
Stayed at the Gateway Lodge in room 1 thinking I would have had some access to the river other than the Restaurant, but NO! The room I picked was the closest to the hiway. It was not so bad except for the antiqu ated mini fridge & the hard bed, the TV was maybe 28" but I was able to hook up my laptop & watch Netflix. The Wifi was descent that is why I am giving them 2 stars instead of 1. Bang for the buck $$$$ it was the worse I've ever experienced. I would not ever stay there again, a lesson well learned. $199 on weekdays & $249 on weekends? Who are you kidding?
Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. It saddens me to read this review as this is so far from the typical customer experience. We encourage you to reach out to us directly to discuss your stay in greater detail. Thank you.
My friends and I were hoping to find a way into Sequoia National Forest and were unsuccessful, but we found this really cool little Restaurant and Lodge. We stopped by to grab a bite to eat. We were allowed to eat out on the patio next to the river. We were mesmerized by the beautiful mountain views and the sound of running water. We were loath to leave. The waitress approached us and informed us that rooms were available and they would offer us a whole cabin for half price. The cabin was rustic with well worn and comfortable furnishings and the patio had plenty of outdoor seating. We made a run to the local grocery store for some snacks and alcohol. We spent the evening on the patio listening to the sounds of nature, watching the cattle graze in the high mountains and conversed about the craziness of life.
We really enjoyed our stay and the food at the restaurant was delicious. We had lunch and breakfast at there and both meals were fresh and plentiful.
We really enjoyed our stay and will stop by again whenever we are in the area in the future. We really appreciated the hospitality and friendly service!
Thanks for the review of our business! It means a lot and we are thrilled you were able to come across our business on your travels! Come back soon!

Mary, we're very grateful for the kind words. We're happy to hear that we are able to provide our customers with a five star experience!
Actually this is a review of a Christmas day dinner at this restaurant in 2018. I had reservations that were not honored because of a crowd of wannabee diners lined up outside the door. Most had no reservations. When my family was finally seated it was by the door leading into a very noisy kitchen. Conversation with my family was impossible. Dinner was expensive and the gratuitity was automatically added to our bill because staff had volunteered to work on Christmas. I wish the dinners themselves had been worth the expense. We should have just hoofed it to a Denny's.
We are sorry to see this review. We intend to provide the utmost in quality products and customer service. We welcome you to return to our establishment for a chance to earn back your business. All the best.
