Testimonials

“We brought our daughters and their families (10 of us) to Sequoia and stayed at the Wuksachi Lodge.  We had a wonderful time.  The staff was friendly and helpful.  The rooms were clean.  We ate several meals at the Lodge and everyone enjoyed them.  I have recommended Wuksachi to family and friends.  Hopefully we can go back in Summer to see more of the forest since some areas were closed for the winter.”
– Nancy and Ed C.
