INSIDE YOSEMITE PARK! Cozy, Peaceful
8.6 out of 10, Excellent, (4)
"Lisa’s property is located about 20 minutes from Yosemite Valley. VRBO provides detailed instructions so far as directions and accessing and using the property. It is in nice condition aside from a couple of funky faucets that could use a plumber’s attention. We found it very comfortable and well furnished. Everything works and Lisa provided all the linens, plates, cooking supplies etc we needed. She is extremely responsive. We mentioned needing a couple of items and adjustment of the heat and...

"This was a great place to stay! It’s close to glacier point, which is worth it on its own for the sunrise there. The valley has kind of a “Disneyland” kind of flavor to it (lots of families and not secluded, more like a resort) that we were unaware of, so we were really happy to stay here with a real “in the woods” feeling. You’re about a 45 minute drive from most things, but the drives are part of the experience. The place itself was really comfortable and cozy. We have every intention of...

"We had the best family weekend staying in this home! We originally had reservations in the valley that got canceled and we wanted to be as close as possible without being in a hotel. The layout and cleanliness of the house could not have been more ideal. Our kids are older and the house was big enough to accommodate us + significant others. We actually had a very intimate wedding ceremony at the Tunnel View and we celebrated with an amazing dinner and celebration at the house afterwards. I...

"My little family and I stayed at this cabin during Easter weekend. We were greeted with a somewhat unexpected snowstorm the first night but it absolutely made this trip even better! The neighborhood had the roads plowed by 6 am and the driveways were being worked as well. Our driveway was cleared by 7:30. The cabin was perfect and we had the best time. The cabin was clean, well stocked with the necessities, the layout was perfect, just all around a perfect cozy cabin. We enjoyed a nice warm fire...

"We had a good stay here once we were able to get into the house--the message we received with check-in information provided both the wrong house number and wrong door code. We could not reach the property manager to get the correct code (granted, we arrived at around 11pm and VRBO was able to eventually reach them), but fortunately we guessed the correct code. The wifi also went out completely 2 days into our stay. The house did have everything we needed and proximity to the valley was great."

"This is a lovely, no frills cabin. It is very basic, nothing special, but the location was ideal. If you are a big cooker planning on taking advantage of the kitchen, bring your favorite tools and any spices or extras you might need. The cabin was comfortable and cozy during a rainy weekend, and we would return."

5/5 Excellent
"I will be honest, I was a little hesitant to book a stay at this property due to the outdated looking pictures online. However, I was pleasantly surprised when I arrived with my family. The rooms do need a little refresh and really just new comforters and curtains would make a huge difference in the overall look and feel. Also, if the pictures online were updated and taken by a professional photographer with better lighting it would be more appealing to potential customers. Anyway- for the positives … the room was clean, check in was easy. Proximity to Yosemite was perfect and made for an easy drive to and from the park. What I was most impressed with though were the outdoor areas on the property. They have a nice area along the Merced River with picnic tables, swings and even a little beach area with chairs to sit in. The pool area (which isn’t even pictured online) was super cute and well put together, as well. My family and I could have spent an entire day just lounging around the pool! Things do improve on - the restaurant breakfast options there weren’t that great and they were out of a lot of things despite showing up pretty early and our bathroom sink only had had cold water. Despite those negatives I would definitely stay at this property again and will recommend it to anyone looking for a nice place to rest near Yosemite."
