great place! we would stay here again. The view of the deck is awesome and it's about 55 minutes to yosemite valley and 15 minutes to mariposa grove, and 15 minutes from the south entrance. Great location - host was amazing and responsive.

This cabin was absolutely perfect. The beds were very comfortable. The pillows were great and sheets were soft. The views out of the house are stunning and you can hear two creeks outside as much as you want. Leave the windows open and you get to hear it. 24 seven. We saw a deer crossing the stream at one point, which was such a great surprise. We didn’t use much but the coffee maker, but the kitchen seemed well stocked, and the appliances were high-end. The neighborhood that the cabin is in is absolutely adorable and perfect for walking and there were also a couple different ways to get down to the river and I’m old and it was an easy walk for me.The host was very responsive to my questions which I very much appreciate. The location of the cabin was remote yet close to a lot of sites and scenery away from the neighborhood. The little market up the street was absolutely perfect and has a little bit of just about everything.I would highly recommend this cabin to anyone going into Yosemite.

In a word: incredible! Yosemite was a bucket list destination for us, and we wanted to stay somewhere that was comfortable, scenic, and allowed for relatively easy ingress/egress. Riverside Retreat checked all those boxes and then some. The view of the river from the deck alone was breathtaking. The home was clean and cozy, the beds comfortable, the kitchen stocked with everything needed for cooking. Our group was three adults, but we would have had more than enough room even with a group twice as large. We absolutely will stay here on our next trip - which, hopefully, will be sooner rather than later!

My son and I absolutely enjoyed our stay at this cabin. I booked this trip very last minute and the host was able to accommodate. I read the great reviews and it didn’t disappoint. The cabin was very cozy and being able to see and hear the river flowing directly behind the cabin was so peaceful, exactly what I was looking for. The bed was so comfortable, we slept very well and the host was very nice, offered very helpful information and was easy to contact. There is a market just a short walk/drive up the road that was pretty well stocked with items needed that I forgot to get at the grocery store on the way up there so that was pretty convenient. We did have to change the dates due to a power outage caused by a recent snow storm but that actually worked out in our favor bc had we went the original dates I had booked, we would not have had the opportunity to experience seeing the FireFall at El Capitan bc it was not visible during the days I had originally planned on going so my son and I were very happy about that. 10/10 highly recommended and will definitely book again. I hope I can come back in the summer
