Great stay for our family! Cabin is located inside Yosemite National Park so only one park entry is required for your entire stay. Cabin is in a wooded location and close to a creek, but also located very close to a gas station and a grocery store/gift shop/post office. Communications with the host (Love Yosemite!) were easy and always resulted in a very fast, professional, and effective response. Would definitely stay here again!

Location was perfect inside Yosemite. Staying inside Yosemite saves time from having to wait at the entrance gate to enter Yosemite, since you are already inside. Cabin is conveniently located 3 minutes away from a small grocery store. My kids are 11 and 14, enjoyed the nearby CLEAN and SAFE creek that is within 5 minute drive, called Wawona Swinging Bridge off of Forest drive. Just bring water shoes. The historical area in Wawona is so neat! Would absolutely stay here again!

We truly appreciate your recommendation and would love to welcome you back for another Yosemite stay!

We chose this house for it's location and spacious accomodations and weren't disappointed! Staying inside the park was a huge advantage to getting to the trails early and beating the traffic. This house is also located close to a small store and gas! We appreciated the washer and dryer so we didn't have to pack a ton of clothes. Hiberntion Hideaway is about 15 minutes from Fish camp where there are some nice restaurants. We only made one meal but found the kitchen to be well stocked with any needed appliance, pans etc.. Thanks for a great stay and would highly recommend!

We enjoyed the property with friends visiting from Japan who enjoyed the valley with snow and coming back to the house to cook and enjoy. Except for a blender all else is there but then again who really needs a blender?

Exactly what we were looking for in a Yosemite cabin

Perfect place for a family visit to Yosemite. Being inside the park gates was great and saved us a lot of time each day. Loved the location away from any road traffic-follow the instructions provided and you won't have an issue finding it. Not fancy, just comfortable. We would love to come back sometime!

We had a wonderful time at Gailyn and Adam's cabin. It's location inside Yosemite makes it the perfect jumping off point for exploring the park. Both spacious and cozy, the cabin has everything you need!

Peaceful home

We had a great stay at Hibernation Hideaway. This home is in the perfect location. It was so quiet and peaceful. Away from the tourists and crowds of the valley but just close enough to head there to see all the wonders. We walked to the river and to the waterfall not too far away. The house is cozy and what you would expect from a cabin in the forest. It was absolutely perfect for our group. We hope to be back.
