Accommodations & Rooms
Buckeye Tree Lodge offers 6 rooms and cabins with private patios overlooking the Kaweah River or the Sierra Nevada mountains. Each room includes a kitchenette, air conditioning, and a private bathroom, with cabin-style accommodations providing full kitchens and separate living areas. The Falcon Cabin and Forest Cabin feature private entries, while the Riverhouse and Dogwood Cabins can accommodate groups of up to 12 guests.
Wellness & Recreation
Guests have access to a natural saltwater swimming pool integrated with the local granite landscape, open year-round with a poolside view of the river. On-site wellness services include yoga sessions and massage therapy, with a deep tissue massage available from therapist Dai. The lodge also supplies pool/beach towels and provides a tree swing and picnic area along the riverbank.
Family & Pet-Friendly
Buckeye Tree Lodge is a family-focused hotel with spacious cabins that have bunk rooms and multiple queen beds, such as the Glacier Cabin with a balcony view of the Sierras. Board games, puzzles, and DVDs are available for guest use, and the shallow end of the saltwater pool is safe for children. Select cabin accommodations are pet-friendly for guests traveling with dogs, with a pet fee applied.

The lodge sits 2 minutes from the entrance of Sequoia National Park, providing direct access to hiking trails and the Giant Sequoias. Case Mountain is a 10-minute drive away for additional hiking with dogs, and Slick Rock Recreation Area and Pumpkin Hollow Bridge are also within short driving distance. Kaweah River runs through the property, offering guests private river access for fishing and stargazing.
