About the host
Hosted by Rekha & Shyam Subramanyan
Shyam and I live in the Bay Area area and love the outdoors. California has some great national parks and we visit them multiple times a year with our three boys to hike, backpack, and watch and photograph wildlife. We host two homes on Airbnb - this one near Yosemite and the second one just outside Lassen National Park. When you stay at our home, you will see landscape and wildlife photos that our family took over the years.
Why they chose this property
The little town of Midpines has been our favorite staging area for our Yosemite adventures and we bought a home in 2018 to make our trips more convenient. Our home sits on a high ridge along Highway 140 which is the only all-season highway into the park. The 22 miles drive along 140 to the park goes along the beautiful Merced river as it snakes into Yosemite Valley.
What makes this property unique
Every room has a view of the sierras. The 9 acre property is private and no neighbors in sight. You will have access to all of the property. During the day, you can spend time taking in the views. At night you can enjoy the dark skies with views of the Milky Way.
