Who let the dogs out!!!
The bird’s eye picture of the property made me think it was secluded. We have a Belgium Malinois that is aggressive with other dogs. The neighbor up the hill has his white dog off leash that sits on the dirt driveway of his home. Our rental property has a barb wire fence around most of the house but the entrance is wide open. Luckily the lady at the Seven Oaks Market referred me to a secluded open area called Gome flats located 1/4 mile from the property. We also took the dogs off leach up the hill behind the property but that was not fun for us old folks but the dogs loved it. Overall we accomplished what we came here for is to “let the dogs out” off leash and run crazy!!!!

Spent two nights with our dogs to escape valley and noise. Property was private and shady and a creek nearby. Enjoyed the air conditioning and cable. This is not a fancy place but it was clean and spacious and well maintained. Great place for a getaway with your dogs.

Home Away From Home
We had a project in Porterville; The vacation home was very quiet and allowed my crew to relax and unwind. We felt very welcome by the host and community. 2023 experienced unusual snow and rain fall for central California; the host and community very helpful to make sure all went well. This job, due to the vacation home, was a vacation even though we worked every day. We enjoyed 3 1/2 stay!

Ok
The owner, Mark, is very responsive and clearly worked hard to make visitors informed and feel welcomed. There are signs everywhere to explain things and a great house manual. The property is large but the home does show its age. Some areas of the home have been nicely redone, but others seem ignored. The furniture was in similar shape. This was our first time renting through VRBO, but we regularly use vacation rentals and I believe our expectations are usually reasonable. We just look for somewhere clean and safe for our young kids and dogs. We try to see the silver lining and did appreciate the quiet and the beautiful stars at night. The locals we encountered were friendly. The hot springs visit was pleasant and we enjoyed the sequoias. Overall the stay was ok. The house isn’t our cup of tea, but we made some great memories.

Perfect if you’re looking for a peaceful and quiet retreat. About 30 mins to the 100 Giants trail - very nice. HVAC kept the place nice and cool during 100° weather. Full kitchen to cook meals, and a grill outside. Mark is a very helpful and attentive host.

Only a short drive to Trail of 100 giants
My family and I had a great stay. Mark is great with communication, and very helpful. The house has everything you need. Just remember to bring your food. There is a little store down the street but they don’t have everything. Awesome family trip. Would book with mark anytime! Thanks for everything, Mark!

Nice getaway!
Mark was clear and thorough when it came to providing directions and explaining the check-in/check-out process. The cabin is simple, but met all the basic needs required for a short stay. The area is quiet and remote, perfect for that off-the-grid experience. The air is so fresh and the nearby Trail of 100 Giants was really special. Thanks for a great, affordable getaway!

Amazing little getaway!
We LOVED this place! Driving up, we were excited to see how private the place felt. We definitely took advantage of the “disconnectedness” from the screen time. We brought games to play with the kids (frisbee, uno, guess who, etc.) and we played outside with them often in the front yard. Mark provided a book for the place complete with local/easy to follow instructions for nearby activities. The kids had a great time exploring with us, waking to the waterfall & driving to the Trail of 100 Giants. We will definitely visit again. Thank you, Mark!

Wonderful Weekend Getaway!
My husband and I, along with one of our friends, took our two dogs out for a weekend of hiking and relaxation. We have a German Shepard who is afraid of other dogs, so it’s always a relief to find a wide open space for her to play. And play she did! We had an absolute blast hiking through the trails that were listed in the House Binder. If you’re looking for a quite place to get away from work emails and phone calls, while seeing some amazing scenery, this is the place.

Had a very relaxing time. The property was private but not isolated which is exactly what we were hoping for. Mark was very helpful and so was the book for hikes. Unfortunately it rained a bit while we were there. The patio area stayed completely dry though. We were still able to sit outside to read and play games. The trees and birds were beautiful!

Serene Getaway
We went for my daughter's spring break with our two dogs. We all had a very good time here! If you want a quiet place with the sounds of nature, this is where you wanna go. Decent trails close by. Even when the road to "trail of 100 giants" was closed, Mark was very helpful in suggesting alternative things to do! Since we booked for 4 nights he also gave us a complimentary day pass for the California hot springs. We sat around the fire place outside and stargazed till late night with owls announcing our presence. The owner is prompt in communicating given the only connection up there is through wi-fi. Yes, no cell signal! It was a really good detox for us from the city life and electronics. A must-have experience! Please do being your food as the supplies up there are a bit limited and almost everything closes at 4.

Loved our second trip out there
This was our second time staying at this property and it was a wonderful experience, again. Very peaceful and relaxing. Just be prepared for the fire detector to go off every time you cook anything and you're all set. Pro tip open the windows and the back door before you cook and it should be fine. Other than that, kick back, relax and unwind in this picturesque home.
