4000 sq ft Lakeside Escape Near Yosemite With Private Dock and Lake Access
After a day outdoors, relax in one of the largest rentals at Pine Mountain Lake. Your family & friends can spread out over ~4000 sq ft of luxuriously appointed living space containing necessary modern conveniences. Enjoy two large decks overlooking the gulch / lake below. Located in a quiet inlet away from all the crowds, you'll have direct access to a private dock on the lake with kayaks, inner tubes, nearby hiking trails, swimming, tennis, golf, fishing, and day trips to Yosemite.
The space
Walking through the front door, you'll enter the relaxing open concept great room with sweeping views of the gulch below. The recently remodeled, fully-stocked kitchen has high-end appliances, stainless steel pots/pans, and everything you need to cook your favorite meals! Relax on the plush sofa in front of the 65" flat screen TV with Apple TV and Chromecast, or choose one of the various board games and puzzles to play as a group. The large solid wood dining table can comfortably seat up to 12 people and the French doors lead to an outdoor patio dining set, lounge chairs, and propane grill on the upper deck.
Turning left and going down the hall, you'll come to the bright formal living room. Secluded from the rest of the house, enjoy the comfortable couches and the regulation sized foosball table. Completing the main floor is a powder bathroom and a huge master bedroom with comfortable king-size bed, sitting area, crib, and spacious en-suite bathroom with separate soaking tub and dual shower head walk-in shower.
Downstairs is a common space, one full bathroom, and 3 large bedrooms. One larger bedroom has a king-sized bed and an additional twin bed. This bedroom also has a 39 inch Amazon Fire TV. The second and third downstairs bedrooms each have a king-sized bed and workstations with a standalone VGA monitor (you may need to bring your own adaptors if needed) for you to connect your laptop (in case you need to do some work while on vacation). All bedrooms have a closet / armoire. The common space has a ping pong table, two full-size futons that can sleep additional guests, and a 55 inch Roku TV and Chromecast for the group to enjoy. This lower level also has its own deck with a hammock and plush patio furniture.

Some Final Considerations
There are approximately 250 weathered steps (a couple steps may be broken) to get down to the home's private dock (easy walk down, a light workout to walk back up to the house). By confirming your reservation, you agree to hold the owners and all who provide services to this home, to be held harmless in the event of an incident. Depending on your group's preferences, you may want to consider driving down a private gated roadway and park directly at the dock/deck to set up "camp" at the dock / lake.
There is a motion-activated video security spotlight monitoring the front porch.
We cannot accommodate parties nor pets.
We hope you enjoy your stay and have a marvelous time with your family and friends! Please let us know if there's anything we can do to make your stay more memorable! Guest access You’ll have access to the entire house except for a couple locked storage closets. The garage is not accessible to guests. Other things to note There is a $50 / car fee charged by the HOA (this applies to all homes and other rentals in the Pine Mountain Lake development) for security, maintenance, and access to the HOA amenities for a week. The security gate will collect the fee for the Association when you first enter Pine Mountain Lake.
Cell phone reception may be spotty in the area, but the house does include high-speed internet. Please be sure to plan accordingly in case you find yourself in a dead zone.
As we continue to improve our home, the bedding / throws, cushions and pillows, wall artwork, and home furnishings may be slightly different than what's shown in the pictures. Furniture and accessories may also get moved around in between guest stays. Thank you for your flexibility and understanding!
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 2.5 bathrooms, and a balcony. There's space to spread out with 4 bedrooms and a dining area. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a sofa bed, and a coffee maker.

Awesome Family Home
We had a wonderful time. The dining table is perfect as our family loves to cook and eat together and then play games after. The Olympics were on and we all watched on the large TV screen (our Cousin got the Bronze for Swimming!!❤️). We enjoyed the beautiful views from both decks and the long walks to the dock for early evening swims were magical! Great memories made!

Birthday Getaway
The house was wonderful for a big group, close enough to the lake and kept us all cool during the summer heat. The house was clean and well kept when we arrived and have everything we needed from towels, to dishes. I couldn't have asked for a better place to stay near Yosemite. I hope to be able to stay here again in the future! Thank you Steve.

Family gift
Every year I gift a VRBO for my grown children and grandchildren. They absolutely loved this place, albeit very hot that week. They spent mornings and evenings at the lake and during the heat played lots of games. My son enjoys bike riding and they found a nearby trail. They brought paddle boards and kayaks; chose to stay in the complex over venturing out to Yosemite.
For me, the owner was super friendly and always stayed in touch. He even let me know about Yosemite’s reservation requirement. It was so thoughtful.
My family was a party of 6 adults and 2 kids. There was plenty of room and I was told it was a very nice, clean place…with air conditioning!

Family Get Away
It was a fantastic family getaway. Steve was an excellent host and very responsive. The house was beautiful and spacious, accommodating all 10 of us comfortably. The only drawback was the distance to the private dock/lake, which involved a significant walk up and down the stairs. Although you can drive to the dock, it can be inconvenient. We ended up driving to the marina and the lodge for swimming instead of using the dock at the house. Despite this, the overall stay was wonderful.

Family girls outing
The house was bigger and nicer then in the pictures! $ sisters and a mom had a wonderful get away. Had everything we needed and the owner Stephen was quick to communicate and answer questions. The stairs to the lake were daunting to mom, but a road to the dock made all the difference! Beds comfortable, kitchen well stocked and quite view off the deck. Great stay, high recommendations!

Beautiful house, excellent location - perfect for telecommuting
We decided on a last minute family trip to Yosemite and this location fit the bill - perfect to accommodate the extended family and with high speed internet for those of us who could not manage days off of work.
The house is gorgeous and well taken care of. The views from the interior and exterior are stunning.
The host is very responsive and helpful. This is not a property to pass up if you have a chance to stay here. I am certain we will book again!

Pine Mountain Lake Paradise Lives Up To it's Name
We absolutely enjoyed our stay at this property. The house was very spacious and accommodated 5 adults and my 13 year-old and 10 year-old nicely. The kitchen was fully stocked and had everything that was needed to prepare meals at home. My children loved the ping-pong table and fishing from the private dock on the lake. The walk to the dock included a lot of steps to get down the hill; however, it was well worth it. The owner was very attentive to our needs and maintained excellent communication with us to see if any issues needed to be addressed. We would definitely recommend this property to our family and friends and look forward to staying there again in the Summer for another trip to Yosemitie.

Pine Mountain Lake Home
We certainly enjoyed our stay at this beautiful home. Spacious, comfortable and offered extra amenities you don't normally find in a vacation rental such as a ping pong table and foosball table. One thing that was a bit of a disappointment; the primary bedroom had no closet to hang our clothes. We had to use a downstairs bedroom for our clothes. Not a big problem but that was a surprise.

A Great Weekend at Pine Mountain Lake
This house is a great place to stay for an extended family. The great room/kitchen/dining area is very large. Plenty of room for kids to play. The panoramic view from the great room and both deck levels make this home very relaxing. We enjoyed swimming in the lake, kayaking and hiking up a nearby trail to play in the creek.
Currently hwy 120 is closed to Yosemite Valley but we went instead to Hetch Hetchy which is a beautiful location with wonderful hiking options.
We would whole heartedly recommend this home. Steve the owner is very responsive and easy to work with.
