Wuksachi Lodge Temporary Closure

The health and safety of our employees and guests is always our highest priority. California has issued a stay-at-home order for many counties, including Tulare county, to help prevent the spread of COVID-19. We are temporarily closing Wuksachi Lodge through Thursday, February 11, 2021. We are contacting guests with reservations to provide them with refunds or to reschedule their visits. We will be welcoming arriving guests back to Wuksachi Lodge on Friday, February 12, 2021.

Kings Canyon Lodging Seasonal Closure

Due to ongoing challenges related to the COVID-19 pandemic, effective November 1, 2020, all Delaware North-operated lodging and restaurants in Kings Canyon National Park will be temporarily closing for the winter season. We anticipate re-opening John Muir Lodge and the Grant Grove Cabins on April 2, 2021, and Cedar Grove Lodge on May 6, 2021.

Kings Canyon National Park and Sequoia National Forest remain open for day visitation, including sightseeing, big tree groves, hiking, camping, and snow play. Limited food and beverage, snow shoe rentals, winter apparel, snow chains, and more are available at the Grant Grove Market (open 9am-5pm daily).

We appreciate your understanding, and look forward to returning to full operation.
