Great Location
This was the perfect place to stay for our visit to Yosemite & Kings Canyon/Sequoia. Enjoying coffee in the morning on the upper deck, the quiet location, and the cleanliness of the home, all contributed to an amazing stay.

Comfortable mountain retreat
My husband, my brother and sister-in-law and I stayed at this property while visiting Yosemite National Park. Great location for visiting the Park - about 15 mi away. Very clean and comfortable home with a great view of the mountains from any window on the back of the house. Kitchen is well outfitted and nicely laid out for food prep. Resident turkeys, quail and mule deer visited the yard every day. Also had a chance encounter with a hummingbird moth! The house is in a very quiet neighborhood and close to good grocery stores and restaurants. We had a couple of questions prior to and during our stay. The property manager responded very quickly each time - easily within 30 minutes. This house would be our first choice if we visit Yosemite again!

Great spot!
the property was great. Clean, all the amenities worked. Easy in and out. Natalie was super helpful and very responsive. Has all the kitchen stuff you’d need to prepare and dine. Do not bring mustard! Lol. The previous guests and I all had the same idea, bring mustard for sandwiches, I added my bottle to the 4 others lol. Anyways, enjoy the view and and the easy 5 minutes in to town for groceries and restaurants. Another 30 minutes up to Yosemite.

20min drive to Bass Lake, 1.5hrs drive to Yosimite Valley
Quiet, nice cabin in Oakhurst, great nature watching through front window! FYI: the cabin is a 40min drive to the entrance of Yosimite Nat. Park, and 1hr.30min to Tunnel View in Yosimite Valley of the park.
As for the cabin stay, it was as a whole pleasant, however the master bedroom could use a spray of pesticide. A family of small spiders was living in the rug and the towels in the bathroom the first time we used them. Also, as much as we were paying per night, I was surprised we were asked to wash our own sheets & towels before leaving. Washing our own dishes I understand, but even the Motel 6 will wash your sheets & towels as part of your stay.

Great home 45 min from Yosemite
Home was clean and well furnished. Communication was host was excellent and check in process was a breeze. Bed mattresses were just ok, which is the only slight knock on this location. Definitely recommend if you are looking for good value within daily driving distance of Yosemite.
