Yosemite West is this national park's premier neighborhood. Nestled into a mountainside central to both main gates, it is minutes from the park's main attractions in both directions, and close to some of the world's most famous vistas and popular hiking trails.
*CELL SERVICE for Yosemite and surrounding areas is VERY LIMITED for ALL providers. Your signal WILL be spotty.
Lots of nice hikes close to the neighborhood. View points and even winter recreation/summer golfing are also nearby, but you will need a car to get to those and Yosemite Valley from the house.
Wireless reception in Yosemite National Park is very spotty for ALL providers. We provide Starlink at the homestead for you to connect your personal devices!

Never thought to ask about having electrical power or AC. Upon arrival at 4pm. We realized the unit had no power. No power meant no wifi, and no phone signal. After finding the breaker box and trying that, we decided to make our way down the hill to find a way to communicate with hosts. I sent a text "help" around 4:30pm. I finally found a phone number for a rental company, and gave a call, they told me- Power is out in the entire park- and to find a way to "entertain myself". Upon arrival back at the unit, STILL no power. We opened all the windows- the screen on the front door is ripped, and bugs were coming in, so that got closed. The themostat downstairs read 89 degrees. No fans, no lights, no flashlights. We all were uncomfortable. WE had a tour booked the next day for 8:30am. Still no power. We arrived back at until at 6pm and finally saw message from host- They were informed at 6pm no power, and that the power would be back on at 9am. We arrived again, to a VERY hot house. There is a portable ac unit upstairs that eventually got the house cooler- UPSTAIRS, but downstairs remained 85-87 degrees. The people downstairs had two nights of horrible sleep. We decided to depart a day early. Once the unit got so hot for two days- it was impossible to really get it to a tolerable level. Host needs generator Was told the power outtages was VERY common in the park. Wish I had known that before booking. Best we can say is "At least it was clean".

The house was perfect, clean and very comfortable. The back deck had a great view. Loved staying inside the park. We would stay here again.

Perfect place to stay in Yosemite
The house was located in a beautiful community only a 30-45 minute drive from all Yosemite Valley destinations we wanted to see plus Wawona and Mariposa! Comfortable place to eat, sleep, and recharge while enjoying the wonders of Yosemite!

EXCEPTIONAL place to stay!
I can’t say enough about this place! It was absolutely perfect for our trip to Yosemite! Location is perfect; contemporary decor with comfortable mattress; unbelievable sunsets from the balcony and a host/owner who’s a great communicator. I would say the photos don’t even do the place justice. Would 100% return and hope to do so one day. Thank you Kay, for sharing your place in such a sacred land!
