The staff was very snotty and unfriendly. The restaurant had only one employee working it and serving the customers. The continental breakfast was cold. They didn't start serving until 8:00am.

The staff are very very nice! From the moment we arrived Todd offered to take our cooler upstairs for us. He’s also the cook and makes a great breakfast! The breakfast is awesome with hot and cold choices and more. The lodge itself is ok. The history of the place is interesting and has a number of old pics to look at and appreciate. The common room was nice and big and has a coffee machine and microwave to heat up food for dinner ( the onsite restaurant closes at 8 or earlier if it’s not busy). The maintenance of this place though has been deferred for quite sometime. The walls are paper thin and the air vent for the wall heater is open to the exterior hall. There’s no A/C but they have a ceiling fan and a portable one also. There’s no fridge but the one cool thing is they give you a bag of ice each day for your cooler. The room and the bathroom was clean but there were some areas with a good amount of dust. Bathroom sink was pretty slow to drain. The room entry is by card ( they put your room number on it). The staff all leave by 8 or 8:30pm and there are some that live in a separate building on site that you can call if needed. One night another couple’s card key stopped working and they had to call a manger to come and make a new one. They lived over an hour away and they didn’t get into their room until 11. That’s kind of different! Loads of parking and also a trail access and there is a gas station! Great place to see the Milky Way!

We thoroughly enjoyed our visit to the Stoney Creek Lodge, with its charm and superior customer service. The rooms were clean and functional. The staff were warm and helpful with advice on outdoor excursion recommendations. The one item that surprised us was the small diner that included more than pizza as we had seen in advertisements. They also included a complimentary morning continental breakfast.

Out in the middle of the national park, a comfortable lodge. Nothing fancy, but it was clean and comfortable for a night's stay. There is a convenience store and a small restaurant. We had pizza in the restaurant and it was mediocre. But it is the only restaurant around so at least it was a hot meal! The morning breakfast was quite good, however. We enjoyed our stay.

We enjoyed staying “in” the park. The lodge was quiet at night. We could see so many stars! No AC, but ceiling fan and a fan were provided. The room was clean, but there was a strong, unpleasant odor from the cleaning solutions I guess? If you stay in a National Park, this was just right.

The room smelt heavily of cleaner fluids, even while leaving all the windows open. Other than that, we loved the convenience of the location in Sequoia National Forest in between Kings Canyon and Sequoia National Parks.

Not Recommend for Summer Days
We decided to leave and find another hotel outside of the park area after we checked-in to Stony Creek Lodge. After reading all the reviews I was prepared for a basic stay, but it didn’t even live up to that standard, the place is certainly lacking maintenance. But my biggest issues are: 1. no air conditioning, I understand the climate is usually cool in the park area, but if you visit during hot summer days, it can be very unpleasant for most of the day. 2. Location wise, it’s not very convenient either, still 10-20 miles away from main attractions/visitor centers in Sequoia or Kings Canyon, keep in mind, the road is winding, such distance takes much longer to drive 3. They do have wi-fi, but very spotty, we basically can’t connect it the whole time there. 4. Hot water takes 15 mins to get.

It was very convenient to be in the park - and this property was in the middle of sequoia and kings canyon national parks. It’s an older property and rather dates. No air co sitting g in the rooms. There is food on site but the restaurant hours are very limited. Other restaurants ra in the park aren’t too far and have better hours. Staff was okay though not super interested in their lodge customers. Would stay here again due to location.

I would never use the word "resort" for Stony Creek Lodge. It's basic. Served its purpose well. Had a bed and a bathroom. Lukewarm breakfast was included. The building was older so nothing fancy. It all depends on what you're expecting. It doesn't fit my definition of "resort" or even "hotel room" but location was awesome and it was wonderful to be in Sequoia and King's Canyon National Parks. I highly recommend it.

The view is beautiful. The room was adequate and clean. It was great to finally be able to stay in the park. There’s an unmarked trail behind the parking lot that leads to the creek. The lodge has its own gas pumps. The staff was friendly and accommodating. I think my only complaint about the room itself is that I like to have a chair and table where I can work on my computer. The food was very good. However, it’s not really sustainable to have one guy taking all the orders and doing all the cooking. Maybe consider making a change that would improve the experience for everyone (including the cook). For instance, stick to one type of item (burgers or pizza, not both). Create an organized system for taking people’s orders. Prioritize the orders of lodge guests over people walking in off the street. Also, consider making the wifi for guests only, even if it’s only after a certain time at night. At night, swarms of teenagers from local campsites would sit in the parking lot and eat up all the bandwidth. I see people complaining about the price. As someone who takes a lot of road trips and stays in or around nature areas, I would consider the price for Stony Creek Lodge to be quite good. You are not paying for a 4 star hotel. You are paying for easy access to a national park, and Stony Creek is right in the middle of it. I would definitely stay here again.
