Too expensive for what it offers…

2 / 5 Poor

This is not a bad little apartment, but at (the rate we were charged per night) it is WAY too expensive for what it offers. The number that is listed as the “average” rate would be better, but still pricey. The photos, which were likely taken some years ago, make it seem bigger than it is. This is a TINY apartment, underneath a larger house that needs new paint etc. The walls are thin, so you hear everything going on upstairs. The TV upstairs is apparently located directly above the bed downstairs, making it hard to sleep if upstairs is occupied. We woke up when our neighbors got up at 5 am - it was loud like they were in our kitchen. Speaking of the kitchen, it was not well-equipped when we arrived: only a couple pots/pans, no lids, main pan was a scratched up Teflon pan that no one should use (Teflon is highly toxic if you get it in your food). The other small pan was dirty, I had to scrub it before using. There were just a few cups, bowls, and plates, none of them matching. If you stay here, you likely will not hang out, you’ll just sleep here and eat breakfast. Parking is very limited. We addressed all of these issues with the owner, and she refused to refund to an amount which would be more appropriate for the offering. On the positive side, the apartment was clean and warm and had hot water, and it is in a nice neighborhood close to Yosemite Valley. In summary, it is a fine place for sleeping between Yosemite adventures - at the right price. At the rate we were charged, it feels like price gouging, especially off-season.…This is not a bad little apartment, but at (the rate we were charged per night) it is WAY too expensive for what it offers.

Inside Yosemite N.p. Gates!, our Luxury Home is Minutes From Valley Attractions

Beautiful remote location / fantastic lodge…

5 / 5 Excellent

We had a beautiful vacation at the lodge - location is fantastic, very remote but in the park and within 30 min from main hikes, the house is very comfortable, we loved the living room, big very well equipped kitchen, the game room. The owner Vonnie - extremely helpful, responsive and addressing all our questions or even specific requests such a fondue machine 😀. Wonderful family vacation !…

Sweetwater Lodge: Modern Home Inside the Park

Amazing, relaxing and wonderful!…

5 / 5 Excellent

Our interactions with our host could not be better. They were incredibly understanding in keeping us Covid-safe. The house was high quality and fun (lots of highly competitive ping pong games happened in our 4 nights!). All possible amenities are here. We will absolutely stay here again. Thank you so much for a wonderful vacation!…

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.…The house is nestled in between old growth pine trees with a beautiful expensive view of the Yosemite’s wooded mountains.

Scenic Wonders Papa Bear Cabin 3 bedroom

Expedia Verified Review…

4 / 5 Good

Nice mountain location, it was beautiful.. kind too close to other houses. A couple of heaters didn't work. The kitchen was fully stocked with dishes, pots, pans, etc. The beds were comfy and the cabin was overall nicely decorated. Close proximity to Giant Redwoods and Yosemite. I would definitely stay again!…
