Do you have internet access at any of your home properties? Yes but very limited!
Only a few of our home properties have recently been able to receive Internet access. Due to our remote location, and the fact that most of our properties are surrounded by tall Yosemite pine and cedar trees, it makes it almost impossible to receive clear satellite signals, cable isn't available yet in our community. The system we currently have is a satellite-based Internet system and is vulnerable to adverse weather conditions, therefore we cannot guarantee Internet connectivity during your stay or a reliable connection for video calling or video streaming.


The EV charger has Port J1772 connector so Teslas will likely need an adaptor.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 2.5 bathrooms, and a balcony. There's space to spread out with 3 bedrooms and a dining area. Other standard amenities include a fireplace, a coffee maker, and a phone.

Amazing stay!!!

We usually stay in Yosemite west area since it is very near to the valley. House is well maintained and clean. We had young kids and they had fun watching Tv and playing around the house. I would recommend the property to have more blankets since it was getting bit cold inside and some kids playing toys. Cooking was very convenient and they had kept all the stuff needed. Location is also very ideal to watch night sky. EV charging was a plus but for Tesla as called out in the listing we needed converter. Overall wonderful stay and would definitely go back..

Great place and very updated. Comfortable furniture....and relatively new. Love the back porch for the morning coffee. We used the front driveway to eat as we had families from other houses in the area. Driveway is large. Played a lot of frisbee and corn hole in the driveway. Would rent this unit again!

Excellent property!

This home was beautiful, spacious, clean, and very well-stocked! We stayed at 4 different homes on this trip to Yosemite, Oakhurst and Lake Tahoe. This particular home at Serenity Pines was unanimously the BEST! The hosts were communicative. Our other family members rented a house nearby and they were jealous of how we had WiFi and AC at this house. It was gorgeous and clean!!! I couldn’t believe they gave us all new soap and supplies. We thought it was a brand new house! Would definitely stay here again.

Five Nights in Yosemite West

Very high quality home and furnishings - very comfortable. Everything worked fine for seven adults - we adapted the den to be a 4th bedroom. It was very nice to have A/C after a full day of hiking in the sunshine. We would definitely stay here again.

Great place that needs a few minor adjustments

All in all Serenity Pines was absolutely perfect. Great location a mere 30 minutes from the valley floor, very clean and comfortable. That said, in the kitchen there was a lack of core staples such as cooking oil, ketchup, mustard, mayonnaise etc. So if you’re going, you really should bring all the spices and things you need for cooking in their very nice kitchen. The one complaint I do have about the kitchen is that the microwave didn’t work and the upper oven didn’t work. You’re still left with a bottom oven but if you’re cooking Multiple dishes for a large group it’s definitely a bummer.

Peaceful paradise just 20 minutes from Yosemite Valley

The property was immaculately maintained and very thoughtfully supplied---everything you might need to cook dinner and do laundry was supplied (except food and dirty clothes of course!) The only negative (and this is not related to the property at all) was the distance to any sort of restaurant or grocery...I wish I would have know and gotten all our food supplies in the valley that first day. Beautiful area and a great way to be able to see all that Yosemite has to offer---we spent 2 days in the valley and our last day at the Giant Sequoia Tree park just about 20 minutes south of the house. I would highly recommend!

Wonderful home.

We enjoyed this cabin in the woods very much. The pictures are true. It is nicely appointed and in a good location for exploring. We found it lacking in kitchen supplies (foil, plastic wrap, zip lock bags, oil, etc). Also no shampoo/ conditioner - which even budget motels provide that! Overall we would consider staying in that area again but would definitely ask questions about supplies first because at the nightly rate we expected a bit more.

This was a cute house! We loved the decor! It was very comfortable and relaxing! The owners were really good about communicating with us. We had just a couple small issues, and they had someone come within an hour or two and help us out! Great location! It was so peaceful!

Great place for a family vacation

We had a wonderful time. The house is located in a beautiful spot, close to the park. Our only complaint is the uncomfortable beds. They all need upgrading. We did not leave a tip for housekeeping in the envelope as requested because when we arrived there was so much hair in the master bedroom shower that I needed to clean it before using it.

Amazing location and incredible comfort.

This place was everything we needed for our Yosemite national park getaway. Everything was as pictured and described. It was fully equipped with all things needed for a great home away from home time with friends or family. Easily contacted with entry information once booked. Spacious rooms. Only small minuses include very creaky floor heard from downstairs, and only showers no bath tub. However if that does nor bother you I would definately recommend this find.

Great house great location

We loved this home and it had plenty of room for our entire family. The teens liked having their own space and the bedrooms downstairs and the great selection of movies! We cooked most meals at home after long days exploring Yosemeti and not wanting to drive the long distance to dine. Just be sure to buy your groceries BEFORE leaving the town of Oakhearst because there isn't anything else that we found. The only draw back to this house is not having a bath tub in any of the three full bathrooms, made it a challenge to bath our daughter, but it wouldn't stop us from renting again if we returned!
