About the host
Hosted by Hari Tatrakal
We created Casa Rio as a place where guests can truly relax, reconnect, and enjoy the beauty of the outdoors without giving up comfort or convenience. We love hosting people in a space that feels peaceful, fun, and memorable, with thoughtful touches for families, couples, and groups of friends. Our goal is to offer a stay where guests can unwind, enjoy quality time together, and experience something special from the moment they arrive
Why they chose this property
We chose this area because it offers a rare mix of natural beauty, privacy, and convenience. Casa Rio is surrounded by beautiful views and a peaceful setting, yet it is still very close to downtown, Bass Lake, and the Yosemite gate. That combination is hard to find. Guests can enjoy the calm of a private retreat while still being close to some of the area’s best attractions, dining, and outdoor adventures
What makes this property unique
Casa Rio is unique because it offers something truly special: a private all-season creek right on the property, giving guests a beautiful and relaxing natural setting without needing to leave. It is the kind of place where you can have fun and make memories without even going out. With games, entertainment, scenic views, and inviting spaces to gather, Casa Rio blends recreation, comfort, and location in a way that is rare to find. Being so close to downtown, Bass Lake, and the Yosemite gate makes it even more exceptional.
