Julia Vasanthi, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

The lodge and its employees are amazing! Everyone is very friendly. WiFi and cell service are spotty and not extremely reliable if that is important to you. The location is amazing if you are spending time in Kings Canyon or Hume Lake. We look forward to returning!

Juliette, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

This was a great way to see both National Parks in a timely and convenient way. We went in May, so the rooms not having air conditioning was fine. The restaurant wasn’t running at normal hours, so that was a bit frustrating, but we navigated it and overall enjoyed our stay.
Pamela, 3-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Super friendly and very nice stay!

Staff super friendly and helpful, all commodities as they state online, very happy with our stay!
Linda, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

John Muir Lodge is great for those wanting a basic inside-the-park experience. The rocking chairs on the porches were delightful! Our two queen room was nice and clean and included a small fridge. The only dining in the area is the park run concession which is pricey and not very good. Convenience of having a nice place to sleep close to the sights is worth it though since it is a long drive to just about any of the other available lodging.
Candace, 1-night trip

Lydia, 3-night trip

8/10 Good

Friendly Staff, decent rooms. Except the shower was really short. Loved the location. Loved the rocking chairs on the decks. Would have liked a few more microwaves in the main area. But the service at the Grant Grove village was super slow and they were way under staffed! However, we Definitely will come back again! But with more of our own food!

Ray, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

It's showing its age a little bit but the rooms have everything you need and the location is to die for. The restaurant is nearby and has a basic but adequate menu.
