Map & Owner's Profile
Yosemite Creekside Retreat Inside Yosemite Park Sleeps 8
Year Purchased: 1995
Why the Owner Chose Yosemite National Park
The cabin in Foresta that we were buying in 1990 burned down - along with most of the other cabins - while it was in escrow. We subsequently bought the lots that became available next to Crane Creek, and built our new cabin in 1995. As our second home, it became a vacation rental in 2003.
The Unique Benefits at this House
Yosemite Creekside Retreat is safely nestled inside Yosemite National Park in a quiet forest setting next to a year-round creek. The creek provides restful water sounds on warm nights with open windows. There are no street lights to spoil the view of the heavens, and only an occasional distant hooting owl sound to break to silence of this location.

Thank you so very much for this opportunity to stay at your very deluxe and super complete home in Yosemite National Park. It is hard to imagine there is such a beautiful and comfortable home – out of nowhere in nature. We are so glad our daughter found this place for our short vacation. This is 100% much better than the hotel residence inns that we have been to. I hope you will keep this place as is for many years to come.

Thank you for providing such a wonderful cabin for us to stay in! Such a fantastic location for hiking in Yosemite and a great home to come back to after a cold day in the snow. We will certainly be recommending your place to others to stay in, winter or summer.
