Everything was perfect. The cabin is in a wonderful quiet location, it was really well equipped, comfy beds and sofas and large beds perfect to ease tired hiking legs in the evening. My only regret is we were not here long enough! There's a beautiful fireplace that we had the fortune of enjoying. Hope to return one day

We loved everything about this cabin, from the comfortable beds, comfy couches, full kitchen with everything available to cook with including a great propane grill. The house was beautifully decorated and clean. The owners were available for questions too. We cooked two full dinners with food purchased at the local store. Yosemite was amazing, and it was great to return to a quiet house and sit out on the lovely deck. We would return in a heartbeat!

Found the outside area of the property to be messy, areas of the inside cottage to be unclean - dusty glasses, cobwebs on the windows and blinds behind the tv, rugs in bathroom and bedspread in the small bedroom need cleaning. The vicinity of the property to the park was excellent. The cottage had a well stocked kitchen.

Great stay! Has everything you need and there is stores near by. Only downside is hardly any signal. There is wifi at the cabin. Cabin is clean and spacious for a family. Will definitely rent again.

Peaceful

Annual trip to the May’s cabin. It’s nice and quiet, allowing for much needed decompression from hectic life. We were pleased to see the new stove/oven and dishwasher. The window A/C in the master was a nice bonus upgrade as well. See you next year.

Mom/daughter Yosemite trip

Total cabin snob here, and I have to say that I was over the top happy with everything this cabin had to offer. Clean, great AC, comfy beds, well stocked, perfect for traveling with dogs, and great location! Only suggestion is to bring floaters with you for the creek which is just down the street!

We really enjoyed our stay. The cabin was very nice, clean, and in a great location. A couple of window a/c units in the bedrooms would've been nice. Over all, wonderful place.

About the host

Host profile image
I have been coming to Yosemite since childhood and dreamed of someday owning a cabin in Wawona. As a native Californian, we visited Yosemite often as a family. My family hiked, rafted, and spent time together in this magnificent wonderland.

Why they chose this property

We chose this location due to the close proximity to the South Fork of the Merced River. In the Spring, you can hear the river and enjoy the seasonal stream. There are oaks and pines on the property and the location is perfect for relaxing on the deck.

What makes this property unique

The peacefulness of this location and the charm of the cabin makes one feel right at home.

For pet owners, there is a small fenced area for your dog to roam.
