"The location is great. Its just outside Yosemite Valley. It makes it convenient to drive into the park. We had a room adjacent to the road. For some reason, it was loud whenever a car drove by. Id recommend getting one of the rooms on the inside towards the river. The small kitchen was nice. We cooked ..."…"

    Deluxe Modern 3 Bed 2 Bath Home, Inside Yosemite Natl Park, A/c, Remodeled 2019
    Perfect getaway…
    5 / 5 Excellent
    The house is nestled in between old growth pine trees with a beautiful expensive view of the Yosemite’s wooded mountains. Well decorated inside with all the amenities we needed. Very clean and newly renovated with fully stocked kitchen. My kids had great time and each had their own private bedroom with fresh clean linen and bedding . My favorite was the master bath shower with surprisingly high pressure jets and double sink with ample supply of heavy weight bath towels. Also enjoyed the recliner lazy boy chairs in front of the wide screen HD TV with DISH connection, and the well functioning fireplace. Even though there was no ATT cell reception the WIFI provided by the house was adequate for doing Zoom meeting and WiFi calling. We also had a great time just hiking down the hill from the house on the fire road exploring the different trees and the views of the area.…
