The location was perfect for exploring Yosemite…close enough for easy day trips but quiet and relaxing in the evenings. The cabin was clean, cozy, and well-equipped.

Daniel was quick to respond to my inquiries. Home was clean and well supplied right down to the Keurig coffee maker. Great views from the gazebo. Home was approx 45 minute drive to the south entrance of Yosemite. Good restaurants and coffee shops along the way. And the views were spectacular. Very nice theatre for the one rainy day we had. I would stay here again.

Very nice private little cottage we really enjoyed our stay! To make this 6 stars.. it would of been nice if the grass on the deck/tenant area was cut it was alittle over grown, if there was paper towel provided (there was napkins), and a bigger sheet pan for the oven (there is a very small one thats almost a single serving size), and I had to ask for check in instructions but other then that we had a fabulous time and would definitely reccomend staying here to friends/family!

The key lock was confusing but the host remotely unlocked. The cabin was a little clinky but everything was clean and well provisioned. The mattress needed frame support at the head end, suggest the owner check it out . We were happy there.

Cute and Quaint

Enjoyed the area, ny only issue was the lack of privacy with the beds, the pictures are slightly misleading. The standard of comfort was 5 stars, comfortable beds very nice soft linens. Oversized towels were a pleasant surprise! Definitely will be back when we go to Yosemite!

Beautiful

Nice and secluded but close to town. Very quiet at night. You can hear the wild life walking around at night. Saw deer on the property. I would stay again. Be careful in wet weather due to it being an unpaved road

Very Nice and Secluded

This was a very cool place to stay for a couple nights while I hiked Yosemite (tho it's about a 90 minute drive to the park, but it was a beautiful drive so I didn't mind it). It's off the beaten path (and back some windy roads). It's a cool layout with the kitchen/laundry downstairs and the open area loft above with the beds and couch/TV. Only one thing I missed and that was a microwave. Nice selection of restaurants just a few miles from it. Host was very responsive to my texts.

We had a fantastic experience. The house was spotless, which immediately made us feel comfortable and at home. The host provided clear and detailed instructions on how to reach the house, which made our journey smooth and stress-free. Whenever we had questions, the host was quick to respond and extremely helpful. The serene location, surrounded by nature, was the perfect getaway. We truly enjoyed our stay and will definitely visit again. Highly recommended!
