We had great fun at Motecito Sequoia! Plenty of activities (like sports, water activities, hiking, games...), beautiful lake, good food (3 meals included), very friendly stuff. The rooms are OK, much or less what we expected. Staying there was the best choice we made. Exceeded our expectations.

My wife made the reservation over the web and was worried the whole way there. When we arrived her concerns evaporated. Beautiful brand new "cabin" that was quiet and relaxing. It is more like a summer camp environment which means, wonderful for children, families. Their staff was wonderful and very accommodating. Only thing they may want to improve is how... More

The door at the top of the stairs was torn from it's hinges. The smoke alarm in the next room was chirping from low battery.... More
