Very nice home with lovely outdoor space and pretty views. The rooms were actually larger than the pictures implied which was a very pleasant surprise.

This is a lovely, comfortable house with plenty of room for our family of 4 adults. Kitchen was well equipped and sitting on deck watching the sunset was amazing. Thirty minute drive to South Gate of Yosemite. Would definitely stay again. Brittany was very responsive to our questions.

The house is very clean and roomy. It has everything needed for cooking. There is a short bumpy road to get into the property, but I would still highly recommend 👌

Great Property

We had a great stay at Yosemite’s Shangri-La. The property was perfect for our needs. It is a great spot for a family or mix of friends. The last 1/4 mile to the driveway is pretty bumpy and unpaved, but if you go slow there shouldn't be a problem navigating/ staying safe (which is no reflection on the home, just FYI if you are renting a vehicle, we would recommend an SUV over a small or sport car). We appreciated that they posted a request for no shoes in the house. The sunset was beautiful from the deck! We had an impromptu request a couple days before the stay and the owner was very kind and accommodating. We would definitely stay again & recommend staying here to anyone looking to stay in the Oakhurst area!
