Yosemite Vacation

This property was everything we were looking for- clean, cozy, warm and an easy drive to the valley. The property has an amazing view and was the perfect place to relax after all day exploring the park. Property manager responded quickly to any questions. Highly recommend!

Nice Rustic house in Yosemite West

Great location near glacier road hikes or into Yosemite Valley. Parking, the neighborhood, the deck and yard were a nice luxury staying within the park. Hosts were amazing to deal with and gracious during possible park closure due to government shutdown.

Gorgeous sunsets

I’ve never seen a more beautiful sunset through the trees than from that back porch! Beds/pillows were comfortable. It is dated, but we enjoyed the rustic feeling for the two nights. Couch newer and comfortable. Spacious master bedroom. Lots of towels. No a/c so a little stuffy, I guess we could have opened the windows but were afraid of bears. Could use a deep cleaning as it was dusty but things that mattered like bathrooms and kitchen were clean. No tv, couldn’t get the Roku working, but we were in the mountains. Overall a nice stay and convenient to the sights of Yosemite!

Perfect location sunsets and wildlife

This home is in the perfect location. The owners communicated well and everything was so easy. This is not a luxury place - more beautiful cabin like, but we had everything we needed, beds were comfortable and was generally clean (a little dusty) - I think expectations may have affected other reviews. The location is perfect looking over part of Yosemite valley - great central location and lots of wildlife (bear, birds) and family time! We loved it!

About the host

Hosted by Chelsea Cashner

Chelsea manages the Mountain View Home for her grandmother who owns the home.
This is a family-run rental. Chelsea grew up in Yosemite National Park and is very helpful with ideas of things to do in Yosemite - just ask.

Why they chose this property

Mountain View Home is only 3 miles from the Glacier Point Road and it is very handy to go up for hikes (summer) along the Glacier Point corridor such as Sentinel Dome, Taft Point, Phono Trail, or the 4-mile Trail. The home is 18 minutes from Yosemite Valley. It is also close to Badger Pass ski area (winter), which is very handy in winter! Excellent winter snow plowing and access to the home, important for safety and easy access to the home.
Beautiful open floor plan living room with a sliding glass door opening out onto the deck. Lovely mountain views from the living room and deck. Perfect for groups or families.

What makes this property unique

There are few homes that are located INSIDE Yosemite National Park. This home is only 18 minutes from Yosemite Valley. The winter access to the Badger Pass ski area is especially nice, only about 18 minutes and we are cross-country skiing on the free groomed Glacier Point Road. Very handy and fun! The home is also excellent in the summer months as it has an elevation of 5,600, the temperatures tend to be very comfortable, and easy access out to Glacier Point, Wawona, or Yosemite Valley! AMAZING views of the surrounding pines, granite cliffs and even some waterfalls in the spring.
