Best VRBO Ever!

My boyfriend and small dog had an amazing stay here. We can’t speak more to the cleanliness and convenience of the property. With a huge outside space, a creek in the backyard, a jacuzzi, morning birds and light through the trees…we couldn’t have asked for a better stay. Shannon was thoughtful and responsive and an impeccable host. If you have the chance to stay here, you will remember it forever.

Paradise in the Mountains

The pictures don't do this property justice. From the little creek in the backyard to the special touches that Shannon adds, you simply have to experience it for yourself. Five adults and one dog stayed comfortably for three nights. We had plenty of soace, and the large backyard was a fave forvour pup! We took many walks, and spent an entire day at Yosemite which is only 20 minutes away. We also had a great time on the Sugar Pine Railroad. We hope to be back soon!

We had a wonderful stay. There were 2 couples and I loved that each of us was able to have our own "floor". I have never seen such a well-stocked home! The kitchen is beautiful. We spent a lot of time on the deck, watching the stars.

Lovely Homebase While Visiting Yosemite

We had a great stay! The home was very clean with all that you will need for a comfortable stay. The open layout was great for visiting. The hot tub and the large grassy backyard were lots of fun. It was great to have a grassy space to play fetch and soccer with our lab. The laundry facilities were very helpful as well.

2024 Family Bass Lake Trip

Highly recommend. All aspects of the venue were simply excellent. It was organized, exceptionally cleaned, attention to details of kitchen items needed; spacious, thoughtful extras provided, and comfortable beds/living space areas. The grounds were beautiful and the creek/gazebo areas were very relaxing. Near recreation areas. Our only regret was not staying longer. Be sure to bring your bug repellent for outdoor. Plan on returning. Many great memories.

What a beauty of a property!!

From the moment we walked into the rental, we were blown away by the welcoming details that Shannon and Steve left for us! They had a warm fire going for us when we arrived as well as relaxing music. What a touch!! In addition, they went above and behind by leaving Easter eggs and treats for the kids (we were there in Easter day). No other host had ever been this thoughful! Thank you Shannon and Steve! The rental was beautiful and well organized. We felt right at home during our vacation. They had all of the supplies we could need. The home is well planned out and made our stay so easy. The backyard was amazing. There was a lot for our family to do. We played volleyball, soccer, and spent hours at the beautiful creek. We had dinner outside on a couple of nights and it was magical. I would give Shannon and Steve 100 stars if I could! Don't think twice and book this amazing home today :)

This place is a gem, very cozy with everything you need. Property was super clean, beds and pillows super comfy and fresh linens. Everything carefully thought out. Plenty of firewood provided and the ambiance set upon our arrival. Easy communication. About an hour and 20 to Yosemite Valley. Thanks again for the lovey stay.

LOVED IT!!

This was a perfect spot for our weekend getaway. The house was nice and warm with a fire waiting for us as we arrived and the host added complimentary touches that made us feel very welcomed. We enjoyed time by the creek and of course the hot tub in the cold weather. It was a beautiful place to return to after adventures on trails and the snow. We loved it and hope to return in the future.

Mini getaway

It was one of the top five cottages that we ever have stayed in. Shannon and Steve were awesome. very helpful, very accommodating. All the little touches didn't go unnoticed. The grandkids and dog especially loved the backyard and stream. The treadmill and jacuzzi was a plus to. The house was incredible. This was a home away from home. This place is a must to stay in. We will be back again.

Excellent Stay

Overall this stay was excellent. The house and property itself were clean and well apportioned and the yard was huge. That alone would have been enough for a 5 star review. But what pushed it into the best stay I’ve had through VBRO was a fire going when we got to the house, with a pie waiting in the fridge. What homey touches! All around thank you for such a great place to stay for Thanksgiving.

We went here with our family for my daughter-in-law‘s family birthday weekend - 5 adults and the 3 grandkids (7, 4 and 1)The photos can’t begin to describe the rental. The owners were super thoughtful and communicative to ensure our stay was a 10+, and it was! The home was very clean, well-stocked with utensils and spices, and the owners even left us a bottle of wine and snacks to welcome us. The yard is a dream come true on Nelder Creek. The house is close to Yosemite and Bass Lake, and we visited both during our stay. We had a wonderful time!

This is an amazing property. The workmanship on the remodeling was great and the decorative touches matched. It is quality thru and thru and the little added touches made for a great time.
