“A fantastic glamping experience!”
+I loved the cleanliness of the grounds and the shower/bathroom facilities. The proximity to the river was really nice to enjoy!
−There was some trash left behind that I picked up, nothing to do with the owners, just probably others at the facilities who didn’t understand the concept of “pack it in, pack it out”. It would’ve been nice to consider adding a small flash light to the amenities to have in the tent, I had my own but just a suggestion. Otherwise, my stay was very enjoyable and I would go back!

+Very cozy, tents were all spread so you had no direct neighbors and noise

“A stressful, overpriced and misrepresented stay made significantly worse by an owner whose behavior”
+The surrounding nature and nearby river were the only real positives, but they were completely overshadowed by the experience with the property itself and the owner. Ultimately, the stay was nowhere near worth the price.
−This was one of the most disappointing stays I’ve booked, especially for nearly $700 for two nights. The problems started before I even arrived. The property was extremely difficult to find, and Apple Maps/car navigation took me the wrong way. By the time I realized I couldn’t locate it, it was nighttime, I had no service, and I was driving around an unfamiliar forested area. I contacted the property and ultimately had to spend roughly $300 on another hotel just to have somewhere to sleep that night. When I arrived the next day, the experience still did not match the listing or price. You have to load your belongings into a cart and haul everything down to the tent yourself. The tent looked far more elevated and cozy in the photos than it did in person, was extremely basic, and was incredibly hot and uncomfortable. Amenities shown as part of the experience were also unavailable (the sauna) and the bathrooms are unventilated and also extremely hot. The worst part was the owner. I kindly asked whether he would consider refunding the first night since I had been unable to find the property and had to pay for another hotel. Instead of simply responding through text, he aggressively cam

“0/10 Avoid this place. Trust the reviews, we didn’t.”
+Absolutely NOTHING
−EVERYTHING. This place is way overpriced and honestly nothing like the beautiful “glamping” experience shown in the pictures. In reality, it felt more like an overpriced, poorly maintained campground. Our tent got unbearably hot, and when we asked for help, there was basically no solution. We were pretty much told, “You chose this,” and to “go to the river.” In the middle of hot summer weather, that’s not only unacceptable, it can be dangerous. The kitchen was filthy and smelled awful, there were only two bathrooms for multiple tents, barely any lighting at night, and the outlet in our tent didn’t work properly. Luckily, we had power banks. But honestly, the worst part was the staff. They were hostile and dismissive when I asked for help, and I was harassed and mocked instead of being taken seriously. After reading other reviews describing guests being mocked when they raised legitimate concerns, it became clear that this isn’t an isolated experience it seems to be a pattern. For what they charge, the facilities and service are simply not worth it. Don’t be fooled by the pictures. Trust the reviews. Save your money and stay somewhere else.

+We spent the weekend at Paradise Ranch and absolutely loved it. We stayed in the Lucky Tent, it was spotless inside, with hotel-quality bedding and towels. The property is huge, and the tents are spaced far enough apart to give plenty of privacy. There’s a gym, sauna, kitchens, clean showers and restrooms with no lines, plus a beautiful mountain river running through the grounds with a well-made access point for swimming or just relaxing by the water. Overall, it’s the perfect mix of comfort and wilderness, you can cook dinner and enjoy all the essentials of a civilized stay, while still feeling like a pioneer fully immersed in nature. Just keep in mind, the road up to the glamping itself is an adventure of its own, safe, but definitely for drivers who enjoy a bit of wild fun.

“Incredible escape to experience natural design and raw nature.”
+This is one of the most special properties I have seen in California. I will be back as soon as I can. So incredibly thoughtful and designed down to the smallest consideration.

+The river.
−The dusty and uneven trail going to the tents and with added rugged, rocky trail going to the kitchen which was somewhat a little dangerous to navigate.

+The Ranch Inn was about 12 miles from Blossom Drive. The pavement road was done halfway through the journey to the ranch. Upon arrival to the ranch, no one was there to greet you. Beware it is a self-service inn. Hence, you have to read the instructional packet that comes with the booking. We rented one of the Glamping tents. It was equipped with a light mist fan that does not have a mist, a charging station, and a chargeable portable lantern. The bed was very comfortable. The ranch was equipped with starlink, a gym, and a spa. You can definitely cook your food. Be sure to check out the south fork river, but beware if you come in summer, the temperature can run to 100++. Overall, the place was beautiful. If you are a nature lover and with a thirst for adventure. This is the place to be. We just find the price on the high side, considering that it was a self-service..
−Our tent was the farthest from the rest. We have to go to a 2 shared bathroom in the middle of the night to do our business. However, the bathroom was nice, secured, and equipped with toiletries.

“Secluded Paradise with a few Quirks.”
+The South Fork Kaweah River inside the property is stunning, with plenty of photo-worthy spots to connect with nature.
−Paradise Ranch Inn is tucked deep in the mountains,about a 45-minute drive from the highway on a winding road. No cell signal, so download the welcome pack for Wi-Fi access,it’s your only way to stay in touch. Check-in is fully self-service not good for inexperience campers and summer heat made the tent uncomfortably warm (80s°F); portable AC would make a big difference. More “convenient camping” than true luxury camping. Be sure to prepare your own safety measures,you’re in a remote area with limited resources.
