At the Log House Lodge every effort is made to keep the modern world at bay. With old-fashioned music on the cathedral style radios, classic films in the parlor in the evening, and rustic antique furnishings, you are taken back to a simpler time to make you feel right at home. Your stay at the Log House Lodge puts you in the center of a laid-back atmosphere that’s perfect for relaxing or as a base camp for outdoor adventure.

You'll start your day with a luxurious country breakfast that you'll never forget. Then, whether you prefer hiking, sightseeing, whitewater rafting, or simply reading and snoozing in front of a warm wood-burning stove, the Log House Lodge is the perfect starting point for a memorable getaway.

A successful partnership of many years has led Mauriene and Tim Landry to open The Log House Lodge. Mauriene, originally a farm girl from Wisconsin, comes from a catering background, a field in which she operated her own business in the San Fernando Valley for several years. Tim still works full time as an Imagineer for the Walt Disney Company. His passion lies in crafting whimsical environments and settings that can transport guests away from the cares of modern living. So it was only natural that upon finding the hidden treasure of sleepy Three Rivers California, Tim and Mauriene should combine their talents in bringing the joys of a simpler life to their guests. Perfecting and polishing the Log House Lodge is their on-going hobby and their delight, along with sharing their own enjoyment of Kaweah country and the Sierras with their guests in style, simplicity, and comfort.

Jack and Monica Pizura welcome you to join them on their working organic orange ranch and to step back in time as you enter their gracious turn-of-the-century home. Designed in 1901 by a Pasadena architect for Monica's ancestor, Illinois State Senator Fred E.

Choose the peaceful Juliana Suite with 360 degree views of trees, mountains and sunsets, the Lucy Harding Room with its vintage queen-size bed and private bath or the Garden Cottage with stacked beds (the top a twin, the bottom one a full-size feather bed), intimate enclosed garden shower and private patio entrance.

Wicky-Up is a member of the slow foods movement, buying fresh, organic and locally whenever possible. A candlelight breakfast of culinary delights features fresh-squeezed orange juice from the ranch and is served on Villeroy and Boch china  in a dining room appointed with  19th c. antiques.   Classical music quietly plays in the background. Some favorites are baked french toast naranjo, fresh dill egg souffles, omeletes with roasted rosemary potatoes, lemon ricotta pancakes, lavender/honey glazed organic grapefruit.

Little "extras" include Wi-Fi, beverages on the verandah, in the garden, or by the fireplace, fresh cut flowers, fluffy bathrobes, gardens with cooing doves, a detailed tour of the historic home, and unforgettable, old-fashioned hospitality. Monica's careers have included school teaching, flight attending for American Airlines, law office administration, British tour booking, motherhood, and managing three small businesses. Jack's hobbies, which are becoming a cottage industry, are woodworking and copper sculpture. He uses his building skills to renovate old properties to rent. He has a background in electrical/mechanical engineering which he applies to their heating/cooling business. He finds farming a healthy contrast.
