Acorn Alley was so cozy and the perfect spot to relax after long days at the park. It was plenty of space for 4 people. Well stocked for cooking. Beds were all comfortable. Loved all the windows with views of the trees. Our favorite was the deck. The giant table was perfect for card playing at night. Property management company was very responsive.

Exactly as advertised, the location was excellent, and the home met the needs of our family of four. I overlooked the details in the description and initially thought the bedrooms could sleep six, but it actually has only one bedroom, along with some cots and a couch. The air conditioning was somewhat inadequate, struggling to keep up when we cooked dinner, making the house quite warm. If the weather stays cool. The giant sequioa grove is nearby and a definite must do. I would definitely recommend this property.

Thank you so much, Todd! We're so glad Acorn Alley's location and setup fit perfectly for your family of four, and that you got to experience the Mariposa Grove giant sequoias just down the road, one of our favorite recommendations for guests staying at this cabin. Just to clarify, Acorn Alley is a cozy 1-bedroom, 1-bath cabin, with the additional roll aways and sofa bed offering extra sleeping space beyond the bedroom itself. As for the AC, most cabins in the park don't have central air, since the higher elevation, tall pines, and cooler mountain breeze usually keep things comfortable without it. This cabin does have a portable AC unit which does a great job overall, though during peak summer, cooking can occasionally warm up the place a bit. We're so glad you'd recommend the property, and we'd love to host your family again soon!

Loved staying in Wawona at Acorn Alley. The accommodations are great and the owners are responsible and helpful. There was a leak under the sink we noticed when we arrived and they sent someone out to fix the issue. We enjoyed the hot tub & sauna after strenuous hiking in Yosemite. The local Market in Wawona was also convenient as well as the Wawona gas station. We hope to return!

Perfect location at the South entrance of Yosemite. We enjoyed the giant trees and drove to Tenaya lake this time. The Cabin is so cute & cozy for a couple or small family. It felt like home. Highly recommend if you enjoy more privacy, peace and quiet! We usually stay in Yosemite Valley and this was a lovely change of pace!

The property is very clean. Check in and out was seamless. Washer and dryer worked great. The only downside is the hot tub leaks so when we tried to use it, it was less than 1/2 full and just sprays water everywhere. The sauna worked perfectly and was wonderful after long days hiking. Overall a great place to stay if you don’t plan to use the hot tub. Next time I’ll save my money and rent a unit without the hot tub.

Thank you for the feedback. I’m glad the home was clean and that check‑in/out and the washer/dryer went smoothly, and I’m sorry the hot tub leaked — that shouldn’t have happened. Our hot tubs are professionally serviced between stays; had we known during your visit we would have sent maintenance right away. We’ve reported the issue and scheduled repairs so future guests won’t have the same problem. Glad the sauna was a hit after your hikes, and thank you for letting us know.

Cozy cabin

Tucked amongst a cluster of trees and cabins, this cozy cabin was perfect for our 3 night stay. All the amenities are there. The hot tub was great after a busy day and the big porch was nice to sit on. The Love Yosemite people are outstanding to communicate and we're so fast getting back to me when I needed to change my reservation by a day and more importantly when an item was left at the cabin after checkout.

We enjoyed our stay very much. The team answered my questions upon arriving quickly. The place is close to trails and water in Wawona. It took 45m to drive to Yosemite Valley and we got to pass the Tunnel View Point which is amazing.

Everything was great. We loved having this cozy cabin to come home to after spending the day in Yosemite Valley. The next day we stayed in Wawona and discovered the Swinging Bridge. We had a great time swimming there. Next time we’ll make sure to bring a raft with us. Super cute community. We all loved it and want to come again. Thank you!

Our family had a lovely stay at the cabin. It was our first time to Yosemite and we had a blast! The cabin is in a great location inside the park. Everything you can think of is laid out nicely and easy to find. The EV charger was great so we didn't have to worry about running out of miles. The full kitchen was great! We ate all of our meals on the patio because the weather was fantastic. We would definitely stay here again.
