Convenient location for working in Yosemite Park and had everything we needed to keep the work crew comfortable. Host was a pleasure to work with. She was easy to communicate with and accommodated an unforeseen schedule change as well as an extension. We would not hesitate to return to this property.

Great spot! Lovely set up!
Great house. Seems much nicer interior than many rentals in same neighborhood for similar prices. Lots of comfortable beds available. The art was fun to see. Comfortable furniture. Our kids (ranging 10-14) had so much fun in the bunk bed room and with the games and movies. The kitchen had plenty of basics to use to cook simple meals. We were able to enjoy a day in Yosemite (about one hour to valley floor) and some time at the local neighborhood lake beach. Delicious pizza just down the road and yummy burgers, fries, and beer at Iron Door Saloon. Great house overall!

Lovely home...
The owner Kristine was very nice and great to communicate with through VRBO messaging only.The house was about 1 hour away from Yosemite's west entrance. Make sure to get reservations before arriving in Summer and get there before 8 a.m. or else the line is long to get into the park.The house had a lovely front porch to sit and enjoy local mountains and flying squirrels. The kitchen and bathrooms are in need of remodeling as they are from the early 1980's. An air vent/fan in bathroom would help.The community is friendly to "renters" only M-F. The weekends don't let renters use facilities without lots of restrictions.Thank you for a lovely stay!
