Family trip to Yosemite
We had a good visit- the house was well stocked with towels, blankets, kitchen tools, etc. We never figured out the drip coffee maker, but the keurig filled in and was well stocked. Washer and dryer were also handy. It was great to have a large dining room table we could all eat at comfortably.

Wonderful Cabin!
My elderly uncles stayed here for 10 days and had a great time! They "forgot" to check out on the designated date and the hosts were wonderful about accommodating them and making sure they got to their next destination. They loved the roomy, clean and cozy cabin which was well located for their Yosemite adventures. This cabin made all the difference in how they enjoyed the park. It was world's apart from staying in a hotel room.

Great charming Cabin. Very clean. Nice hosts. Comfortable beds. Do not rely on GPS. The only issue is GPS took us off-road to boonies… the marker is Wrong on Google, Apple, Waze and Tesla nav. Just look for the sign and you won’t miss it.

Yosemite Family Vacation
Overall, the space met the needs of 2 families of 4. It was clean, and mostly what we expected. Though the refrigerator was able to eventually keep an adequate temperature, getting in/out of it too much caused the temp to increase quickly so we were quite concerned the first night after unloading our groceries. We contacted the property owner who responded very quickly, and is aware the refrigerator needs serviced. Unfortunately, there was little to be done during our stay, but to try and limit opening/closing it often. The freezer worked fine. Overall we had a great vacation and upon confirming the fridge has been serviced, I would stay at the property again.

Perfect place to enjoy Yosemite and the surrounding area!
Finding a comfortable place for a family of 7 is no easy task. This house fit the bill just perfectly! The kitchen had everything we could have needed. The beds were comfortable. Everything was clean. Because of summer traffic, it took about an hour to get to the Arch Rock entrance of Yosemite, but the ride along the Merced River was a beautiful part of the journey. It was also nice to be so close to Mariposa. The house is listed as 3 bedroom, but there is a door between the two spaces in the loft which makes it feel like a 4 bedroom. Just be sure that the people sleeping in the loft are okay with coming downstairs to use the bathroom. It wasn’t a problem for us at all. Communication with the owner was pleasant and all messages were answered quickly. Highly recommended!

A great visit with visiting family
My two brothers and a sister-in-law came to visit us from the east coast. We thought it would be great to take them to see Yosemite. We searched out this house back in December and thought it sounded like it would work. Turned out, it was perfect. It had lots of room, was very comfortable, and was fully equipped with everything we needed. We had a wonderful stay. Thanks for making it available to us vacation renters.
