About this property

Stay at the "SILLY OL' BEAR" cabin and enjoy a day at Yosemite or Bass Lake

Venture into our version of the 100 acre wood & Winnie the Pooh along with all his friends. Rediscover the joys of family life, the value of friendship and to appreciate the simple pleasures in life. Our cabin sits on a fully enclosed yard of just under 1 acre surrounded by large white oak trees. Enjoy a day hiking at Yosemite or swimming at the lake, then return to a relaxing evening BBQing, playing games, or star gazing in the backyard. Our 3 bedroom 2 bathroom cabin was built in 1959 which give it alot of "woodsy" character. There has been modern updates but still does retain the feel of old fashion cabin living. Located less than 3 miles above the center of Oakhurst, 4.5 to Bass lake Forks Resort and 18 mile to the south gate Yosemite entrance. There will be plenty to do during your stay. We look forward to sharing our place with you, where you can make memories to last a lifetime.

Tamara is very thoughtful and made the cabin with warm touching from inside-out. We loved the greetings from the adorable forest creatures in the yard as well as the BEARS in the house. Tamara accommodated us with earlier check-in and called us to confirm that we had everything we needed (the house is very well equipped). It has all for us to relax after exploring the Yosemite. On the 3rd day of our stay, we listened the PH records (John Denver, Pavarotti, Paul Anka and more) while watching the rain outside of the window, which brought a lot of good memories back. We are very grateful to be given the chance to stay in "SILLY OL' BEAR" cabin and will for sure be back to if visiting the Yosemite again.

Great vacation home in Oakhurst!

Very enjoyable stay, beginning with very cordial hosts meeting us at the property upon arrival, making sure to answer any questions we might have. House was very clean, well stocked, and had everything we needed for our 5 night stay. Location was perfect - we had business in town in Oakhurst, went to Bass Lake and also drove into Yosemite twice for day trips. We would definitely stay here again and recommend it to friends.

Perfect place!

Not fancy, but everything you need. 3 bedrooms and one bedroom has 2 twin beds in it. So 4 beds! Wow! Kitchen was well stocked with everything needed to cook a meal for 4. Washer and dryer was helpful too. Property close to grocery stores, gas, and fast food options. Only 30-45 minutes to Yosemite gate on hwy 41. Wonderful option!!

Nice Location and Clean

The house is in a good location and was clean but very outdated. The beds were very uncomfortable and the shower heads were terrible. We only stayed one night and didn’t use the kitchen so I don’t know how that was. We barely were in the house because we came for a wedding so just showered and slept but not well because the beds were so uncomfortable. It was clean and location was ok.

This is a great location for family. Not too far from the fish camp snow park with a big backyard. It is decorated really cute and homey. We woke up to snow this morning! This is our second time staying here. The owners are really nice and accommodating. We recommend.

Great stay

This is a truly home away from home. Nice secure big yard and close proximity to the restaurants, grocery stores and everything you need. We stayed there first weekend when Tioga pass was open and left early enough to be at the park by 6 am. Cooler was able to keep up with a 100+ degrees weather. The day of checkout, unfortunately, we lost power, but while it was triple digits and we were there - it was great! Host was very easy to reach and answered all my questions - this was very helpful and we felt like we knew everything before we even arrived! We will be back. :)

Beautiful property in a beautiful area

Perfect for our party of 4 but 6 would have been fine with the two twin beds in the 3rd bedroom. Our only complaints were the slow drain in bath 1 and the squeaky but comfy beds. Please fix those because we cannot wait to stay there again. Very nice!

Yosemite Waterfalls for Mother's Day

Great location. Would've been 1 1/2 to park if the lines hadn't been so long! House was just what we expected. TV is all streamed so no local news, etc... Saw a couple of deer and a wild turkey.

Overall good but missing a few items

Overall good but missing a few items like a Tea kettle and a normal coffee pot. There was only a Keurig with horrible maxwell house pods so if you actually care about coffee and you brought your own good coffee there was no way to make it without getting super creative. Fortunately we had brought a strainer so we sort of made our own French press and were able to strain through different pots but it was pretty silly. Kitchen supplies a little skimpy generally but overall the rest of the house was lovely we were very comfortable the outdoor furniture was great it was nice and cool

Family trip to the snow

Had a great stay here at silly ol bear, honestly I didn't really need to take anything besides food since everything was there. I celebrated my daughters 2nd birthday here and it was nice and we went to the snow. Tamara had let us barrow her snow sleds after we checked out which was very nice of her. The back yard is huge my two children loved it so much! There were toys for the kids to play with, my daughter loved that and also loved the little stuffed animals that were on the bed in the kids room. Over all our stay here at silly ol bear was great! And we will be booking again! Thank you Tamara! - Lopez Family

Very comfortable stay

We had a great experience at the Silly Ol' Bear cabin! The house was very clean and comfortable. The kids loved the Winnie the Pooh themed decorations and variety of kid games in the closet. The backyard was spacious for them to run around. The cabin is a convenient distance between Bass Lake and the Yosemite entrance.

Perfect place to stay and enjoy Yosemite and still be able to enjoy other things around the area. House was the perfect size for my family to connect and be together yet still have our own rooms to go to at night. Hosts were fabulous and very helpful as well. Will definitely come again when in the area! Thank you for offering your home to others. Truly enjoyed our time there and will have forever memories.

Location if headed to Yosemite and need a place to stay

Initially the idea was a spot close to Yosemite and it’s an hour n a blad away from location. Still a great spot to stay if wanting to stay for a few days. Close to all the stores and lakes close by also. Great host, host made things accommodating to me with a few questions and clarification regarding the location. Kids enjoyed the games, I enjoyed the quiet & hubby loved the grill. Everything felt like home away from home. Thanks so much!

About the host

Hosted by Tamara cuneo

Host profile image
Grew up in a small town and moved to an even smaller town, Coarsegold, 17 years ago. Being able to work in the same small town gives me plenty of time to do what I enjoy, gardening & hiking.

Why they chose this property

Our family spent almost every summer vacationing at Bass Lake. Camping, learning to ski and swimming at the lake were such a big part of my childhood , I decided to purchase a home in the area where I could enjoy those things once again. Since I am unable to spend all my time at my vacation home, I would like to share it with others. Great memories are the best part of looking back on our lives.
