Location was peaceful with views of the river. Close to the giant sequoias in Mariposa Grove. The Pine Tree Market was a short walk from the cabin. Being inside the national park saved so much time in entrance lines to the park. Cabin was roomy and well stocked. The host was immediately responsive to questions or issues. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

We went on a family trip with 4 adults and 4 teenagers. The property was more spacious than we expected and had everything we needed. The views of the river and swimming /rock jumping area were perfect after long hikes in Yosemite. Wawona was such a cute and inviting area. Kip was very responsive. Would definitely recommend this property.

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!
