Looking for any suggestions or tips on places to stay near the Sequoia National Forest in California. This is just going to be a quick weekend visit, probably flying into LAX. I've read a lot of people suggesting to stay at the park in one of the lodges, but I don't think any of those are affiliated with any point programs. Since we plan to only visit the park for one day I'm thinking of staying somewhere nearby and just driving in and out of the park on the same day. Problem is that LA is 4+ hours away by car so I'm hoping somebody has some suggestions for nice hotels that are closer to the park. I have points with Hilton, SPG, Hyatt, and Club Carlson. Thanks!
