Wonderful getaway near Yosemite

We used it as our home base to take winter hikes in Yosemite. It was lovely! The single tiny downside was not being able to leave our very old dog in the home while we were away. But overall a very comfortable home.

Gem in the woods

Adorable clean, spacious cabin, close to town but feels private and remote. Charming decor from living room to bedrooms with comfortable beds and bedding. So many usable spaces- front porch, back porch, and ample space in living and dining area. The host has thought of all needs including toiletries, snacks, coffee, towels for hot tub etc. Good communication online and thorough instruction book with checkout info. Wish we could have stayed longer :)

Nice getaway

It was a perfect location for Yosemite. The house was mid clean as the bathrooms were a bit dirty(both showers) and there is an ant issue in the kitchen. But the hosts had loads of games and entertainment and the property was lovely.

Yosemite Visit

Yosemite was the last National Park on our family’s 3 week trip out west, and the cabin was a great place to conclude our trip. Great accommodations, and easy access to Yosemite and to Mariposa. Owners provide great instructions and details on the property and surrounding areas, would definitely stay again if in the area.

Yosemite getaway

We LOVED this property. It looked like it was a property that the owners use themselves. Had EVERYTHING that we needed even down to an iron, ironing board and steamer for a wedding we went to after this stay. Great recommendations for food & restaurants, favorite hiking trails and an espresso machine! Definitely recommend!

Awesome vacation!

This house was so perfect for my group of 4 people. We stayed in this house so we could go to Yosemite. It was about a 35-40 minute drive from the entrance to the park. The place was pretty remote which was nice for watching the stars. We enjoyed the hot tub the most!

Great house/cabin close to Yosemite

I would recommend this rental. It was very comfortable for our stay (2 adults). Lovely grounds, nicely appointed and appreciated the hot tub after a day of exploring the park. It is about an 8 minute drive to Mariposa with many restaurants and stores. The drive to Yosemite entrance was a beautiful 35-40 minute drive. There would be plenty of room in this rental for 2 couples or a couple with children. Kitchen had all the basics covered!

Great base to explore Yosemite

Our main purpose was to explore Yosemite, and it took us 30-45 minutes to drive to the entrance of the park. The house was very comfortable and well equipped. There's a good grocery store about 10 minutes away. The only problem we had was the heater in the den area was a little strange and would sometimes blow cool air. I would stay there again if I made another trip to Yosemite.

Wonderful Property

My family had a great time here. The house was clean, updated, and comfortable. It is located about as near to Yosemite as you can get without staying inside the park. This made for several great days exploring the park as a family. The hot tub was a great way to relax after long days of hiking. We also loved watching the wild turkeys and their babies running around the yard in the morning. Would highly recommend this place!
