I shared a spacious room with my 2 adult kids at Lazy J"s and we were very comfortable. 2 queens AND 2 singles . Clean comfortable bedding, extra blankets (our trip was in Nov) , enough towels in the bathroom. Maid service replaced everything correctly each day. We drove up from LA and arrived at 8:45 pm but were still welcomed at reception.Very friendly atmosphere. Parked right in front of our room. As it was dark when we arrived we had no idea what lovely views would greet us the next day. Great place to drive into Sequoia National Park each day. Room had fridge & microwave & coffee machine so we were able to eat in room. Had a wonderful stay. Humming birds galore!!!

I loved everything about this place! The property was decked out for Halloween, so fun. If we had had more time, I would have loved to use the pool, as it was very hot on our arrival. Our room was almost too clean -- the smell of cleaning products was overpowering when we entered the cabin, so we opened all the windows and turned on the fan to air it out. Highly recommend!

Everything was great from check in to check out. People were very friendly and helpful. The units are older but in excellent condition and very well maintained. Very clean. Only 6 miles from the entrance of Sequoia National Park. Thank you for a great stay.

Beautiful setting
We loved our family stay here. Perfect place to base yourself before heading into Sequoia national park. Stunning setting with mountain views all around. Nice pool. Seats dotted around the place to enjoy a coffee looking at the view. Friendly welcome on arrival. Would definitely stay again.

The Lazy J is an old style motel with two rooms per small building, where you park right in front of your room. The room was clean and had been renovated at some point in the past. The beds were ok. The room had a window air conditioner which kept up pretty well in 95 degree heat. They have a pool which we didn’t use, and there are restaurants within a mile or so. It’s not *5 star* like I’d give to an urban hotel, but I’d say it was good value if you’re looking for a clean place to stay close to Sequoia National Park.

Cute motel worth a visit
This was a cute little motel, room was clean and even had a working fridge which is important to someone with meds that must be cooled. There were a couple of little tecnical issues which were quickly solved. The front desk person was very couteous and good.

This property was so cute. It was quiet and the parking was convenient. The room was very clean, updated and the staff was very friendly and helpful. It had a nice pool with a volleyball net and a swing set. There is even river access. We will be staying here again!
