John Muir Lodge | Kings Canyon National Park, Los Angeles | Virgin Atlantic Holidays

Kings Canyon National Park, Los Angeles

3 stars

John Muir Lodge is in an excellent location for exploring Kings Canyon National Park and giant sequoia country. A warm welcome awaits under the lodge's open beamed ceiling and in front of the stone fireplace, ensuring all guests get to feel right at home. Accommodation follows suit and you'll discover recently renovated rooms with hand crafted furniture and local artwork adding to the instant appeal. After a good night's rest there's nothing better than an early start to soak up the sun rising over the sequoias. Picnic supplies can be picked up at the general stores opposite the lodge and once you've packed up the fishing tackle, charged your camera and hit the trail, it's time to discover just what John Muir fell in love with way back when.

“John Muir Lodge was a great experience!!”

Sep 16, 2025GoofysDad

Loved the lodge!! The folks were super nice. The shower wasn’t great (the shower trickled out which made it tough to rinse off) but they did have a water challenge which I thought was a great idea-but with the trickle-made it impossible to achieve). Other than that, it was great. Loved the location!!

“Would not recommend”

Sep 08, 2025Kristina C

Rates for rooms are overrated for what you get. 2 channels on TV and they go in and out no air conditioning. Staff is very friendly. Restaurant is subpar

“Great lodge facilities, location, and staff. Just don't expect great food, unless you like junk food.”

The facilities are excellent. Staff are friendly and efficient. The restaurant is sub-par for what you are paying for the rooms. There are NO dinner entrees; only lunch is available. So sandwiches, salads, and pizza. They have you order at a kiosk. You will need to provide your own utensils and water. They bring your food, and they never check up on you. They appeared to be short-staffed. Only two people. One at the front desk with the kiosk, serving as host and cleaning the tables. The other delivered you food. The location is perfect if you want to hike the upper part of Kings Canyon and the southern part of Sequoia National Park, both of which are only an hour away. Fresno is an hour away, so easy access to the airport.
