A Small Slice of Paradise
My family and I visited Yosemite and found this wonderful cabin, and if I may, it was a little slice of paradise. The cabin owners were so sweet and answered all our questions. When we arrived to the cabin it was very welcoming and homey, everything was spotless! When we say everything, we mean it. The beds were nicely made. The bathrooms were clean and looked new. The grill was very clean and we were able to BBQ on our vacation. The washer and dryer were nice and they even had laundry detergent and drying sheets. The back yard is very spacious. My kids were able to go outside and enjoy the trees. It also has a swing in the back. The tvs were great we were able to watch a movie before bed. It also has a fire place, we didn’t use it but if we wanted to it would have been easy to as it had wood and a lighter at the ready. The cabin also included toilet paper, shampoo, soap, and snacks. It was all amazing. 10/10 would definitely stay again. Is this ok?

Great, then very bad
Everything was fantastic. And then my 3 year old hid under the guest bed and I found a diabetic hypodermic needle beside her with some other trash. The checkout process included removing the sheets from all used beds and putting them in pile on the floor. We discovered urine at the foot of bedding that was uncleaned from previous visitors. Probably because they didn’t put sheets on floor, so bedding was never cleaned. Two very bad points of our trip.

Enjoyed this awesome property
We took our family for a few nights and enjoyed this place. The house was better in person than in the pictures. It was super clean, and the host was available to accommodate our requests. We will choose this place again. Thanks, Sarab

Cozy Perfect House
My husband, son (15) and I absolutely loved this house. It is very clean, cozy and spacious. We loved that it had a fireplace b/c one day it was raining and cold and the evenings were cool as well. Although it has A/C and a heater for the whole house, the fireplace just added that cozy feeling. We enjoyed the huge green grass backyard! We played corn hole that the house provided. We also walked past the fence line and walked the creek behind the house. That was pretty cool. We also saw 4 huge turkeys twice. This is a bit of a drive to El Capitain (1 hour and 15 min) but the drive was so beautiful and that was part of the experience as well and wan't a problem for us at all. About 4 miles away there is a little tiny country store. We wanted sandwiches for the next day and wasn't prepared. So we bought stuff there. They have all the sandwich fixing but very pricey. I encourage ppl to stop in Marisopa or even towns before that to get your food if you plan on cooking. The kitchen is fully equipped, including a crockpot that I used. The beds were very comfortable. Just an overall wonderful place and will definitely be referring this to other friends and family. The owner was super nice and replied immediately when we would text her. Thanks Pooja!

Awesome and serene place!
We loved our stay at the mountain house. It was neat, clean and checked all our boxes. The warm fire place, lush green backyard and the creek beyond was simply a delight! The location was apt since it was near to the Bass Lake and Oakhrust downtown. The host was responsive and communicated well. Overall it was a great experience and I look forward to visiting again.
