This National Park Lodge is the nicest place I have stayed in the many parks I have visited. My only issue was the very soft bed in the ADA room we stayed in.

Loved our stay. The only issue was that our room was directly next to the stairs so we heard every time someone would walk up and down. It was very loud

Parking for guests was limited but we had no issue parking in spots in the times we arrived. The attentiveness of the staff and amenities in the lodge were great. Coffee, games, tables and chairs, mini store, water filling station were great. The room was perfect for this time of year not needing air conditioning.

John Muir Inn was well maintained and situated with all the other Kings Canyon buildings including a restaurant, gift shop, and the Park Welcome center. Our stay was great. Vincent the evening staff at the counter made us fresh baked cookies each night. The inn has a “lodge” feel, and many of the guests met in the main open area downstairs in front of the fireplace to eat or play games in the evening. The Inn provided many family games that you could take and play. Overall was a great experience and recommend the stay.

The Lodge was excellent. The only complaint was at the Grant Grove Village restaurant, which is the only close place to eat, and within walking distance, was very, very, under staffed. Expect long waits.
