The Loft was perfect for our trip to Yosemite. It was very comfortable and we had everything we needed. Shell was very accommodating and easy to work with.
Clean, cozy place! Would stay here again for sure! We couldn’t get the heater to work and we were really cold sleeping, but other than that, everything was great!

Nice property, No Problems Very nice host.
We enjoyed our stay. About 1 hour from Yosemite valley.
Neat, clean, conveniently located, all mod cons, everything spotless and shiny, and kudos+++ to Shell for providing both smoke and co alarms (the first Vrbo I've ever stayed at that had them, I carry my own). This is an awesome place, I can't say enough.
We loved our stay here! The place had lots of easy-to-forget necessities and the kitchen was stocked with plenty of dishes/cookware/utensils. The porch area and fire pit would be especially nice in summer, and the views of the mountains from the windows and property were stunning even for our winter stay!

A stay in the country
We enjoyed our stay in Old Oak Hideaway while visiting Yosemite and Giant Oak Sequoias. It was clean, cosy, country, casual and perfect for our short stay in the area. The owner was very helpful with guidance to area attractions and available for questions as we had them. The dogs were friendly and ready to play at the drop of a ball.
I would use again if visiting in that area.
The facility was really well presented, clean and cosy. The beds were comfortable and quite easily accommodated our family of four. The host also provided a choice of entertainment - Netflix, Amazon Prime, and DVDs for the so inclined (our young adult children were quite pleased with this)Well equipped kitchen meant that we were able to quickly prep meals as required. The bathroom was also very clean and well presented. Overall, we've had a great two nights in this place. I worried highly recommended it for others. If I do come back to Yosemite, this would definitely be my pick of accommodation. Shell has done an awesome job and thought of virtually everything. I have no hesitation in giving her my highest recommendation as a host.

Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, communication
Kitchen and fridge were stuffed with essentials. Host took care of every detail to make it a safe and comfortable stay. Nothing negative.
We stayed here with our kids during a road trip to Yosemite and it was perfect. The owner loves on-site and was super friendly and accessible. The unit is very family friendly and there were even toys and scooters for my kids to play with. We also loved meeting Charlie who was so friendly!! At night we could see more stars than we’d ever seen. Location is also close to the town of Mariposa which has shops and restaurants. Great stay
Located close to the eastern and southern entrances to Yosemite. Also close to Mariposa center where yarts busses can take you into the park at reasonable senior rates.
Shell, our host, was quick to respond and very helpful in suggesting eating and grocery spots.
Clean and well stocked and quiet. Thanks Shell. John and Dianna
We stayed at the loft for a business trip.
The loft was quiet, clean and well stocked with kitchen and bath necessities.
Shell was a gracious host.
We had a power outage while out during one day and she was ready with extension cords and her generator if necessary - thankfully the power returned before we returned for the evening.
We would highly recommend the location, facilities and the host.

Nothing 'old' about this lovely studio!
Make no mistake, there is nothing old about this gem. It is a well appointed studio with full kitchen and bath. The surroundings are serene and the owners are delightful and have ensured attention to every detail. We have stayed here many times and will continue to stay here anytime we visit Yosemite. Thanks, Rachael and Dan!!

Hi!!
Thank you for this kind review. We always look forward to hearing from our guests. We took the suggestion that was made and jumped on it. Can't wait for visits from our return guests to see if they notice the difference.
Until next visit,
May you always have walls for the winds,
a roof for the rain, tea beside the fire,
laughter to cheer you, those you love near you,
and all your heart might desire.
Your humble host,
Dan
The listing was as advertised and the host was very responsive to all questions. The location was about an hour drive from Yosemite. For us, it wasn't a problem because we like to have eating options and the closer you get to the park, the less options you have. There are two towns within a 15 minute drive from the listing that have several local places to eat. We stayed at this location for a week. It would have been nice if the listing had a washer and dryer available as we went through a lot of clothes hiking everyday and the laundry mat option is a hassle.
However, I would definetely choose this location again if I travle to Yosemite. Thanks Shell!
my fiancé and i appreciated that the place was clean, kitchen was fully stocked, and all appliances were functioning properly. however, please be cautious if you use the provided condiments. we had found that the cooking oils have been expired since last year. i suggest that guests bringing your own condiments to be safe & for the host to keep track of the lifespan of the condiments.
unfortunately, we did not have the best welcome from the host. it was over 100F and we had a challenging time getting reception so we decided to go to the place 30 mins earlier than check-in and wait in our car just to ensure that we find the place and would be able to put in our perishables as soon as we are able to which is the 3pm check in time. Shell came up to is in our car and told us “hello? it isn’t 3pm yet?” to which we explained the situation. she just continued telling us how inappropriate we are for wanting to “watch her clean” (which we had no intention of doing). we told her that if she did not feel comfortable with us waiting then we could just drive elsewhere and we will be back at 3pm again. we explained to her that this was our first time using vrbo and we did not know that the host messages us from the vrbo app - so, we had no idea that it was a strict 3pm check in time. it was clearly a misunderstanding to which we had apologized for and would have appreciated if she had just kindly told us to be back after 3pm. it was upsetting to hear her calling us inappropriate and accusi
La estancia ha sido maravillosa. Shell nos ha puesto dl todas ls facilidades para hacer la entrada. El Loft tiene dos amplias camas y una cocina completamente equipada.És muy acogedoe. Tiene aire acondicionado, butacas en el exterior donde al atardecer se está genial.A una hora en coche de la entrada de Mariposa Grove, y a 12 minutos en coche del pueblo.
My bf and I stayed here two nights while visiting Yosemite NP. It was a little over an hour drive to the park but we didn’t mind because we were closer to a grocery store and restaurants! It was clean and the host was a quick responder to my messages. 10/10 would stay again.
Shell was great and so was the dog that greeted us. Room was perfect in cleanliness, usefulness, and location. Only thing I regret is not bringing treats for the Doggie!
Such a wonderful, relaxing place to unwind and escape. It’s so quiet and clean. Shell was wonderful with getting in touch beforehand and providing directions. If I’m ever in the area, I would be staying again.
Owner was a good communicator. Directions to property were also good.

About the host
Hosted by Shell Ostler
My husband and I met in beautiful Yosemite. When we would visit Yosemite we would stay in Mariposa and fell in love with the town. When the opportunity presented itself we both knew this is where we wanted to live the rest of our lives. The people are extremely friendly, the area is rich with history and you can't beat the beauty of Yosemite.
