20-year anniversary.

The view from the hot tub at the end of a day in Yosemite Park was the best. Very large open floor plan. Very comfortable seating for those movies you watch..

My husband and i have booked with Creature Creations before and we always have a great experience. Some things we have issues with is pricing, to check in in the evening and have to check out in the morning makes it feel like we do not get the whole time expected. And having to pay more for a suite that sleeps 4 people but we cannot have 4 people without being charged extra. Dealt with black widows interior and exterior. Using our own log ins to stream movies is disappointing with how much we spend to book here. We enjoy the jacuzzi but jets and lights were not working. Definitely little things they can fix but overall we enjoy our time here. Thank you

Great Place to Stay Near Yosemite

The hot tub is probably the best part of the stay after a long day of hiking in Yosemite. The communication with the host was great. The house is very comfortable and clean, with easy parking and clear instructions. The only thing it could use is a few more towels, but everything else is so great that seems nit picky. Truly an awesome spot.

Great decorations

The place was cute, bed was comfy, and the hot tub was great. Most of the cost is for the hot tub bc everything else is very minimal. We paid extra for four people to stay but were still only given two blankets. Very few dishes and things needed for cooking. The location was great and they give good info about local food and Yosemite. This would be best for people who live in CA and can bring their own stuff but want to be closer to the parks.

Update towel policy

Need to provide more than 1 bath towel per person staying for 3 nights. Hot tub was great although the fence blocked the view.

Better than expected

The listing online doesn’t do this place justice. It was more spacious than we anticipated, very clean, and the view was amazing. Oakhurst is a cute small town that was very close with plenty of food and all the things you’ll need. Communication with the host was very efficient. 10/10 recommend and I hope to return soon!

Nice place to relax

The rental is very nice. Clean and much larger than the pics show. Hot tub was great for relaxing after a day of hiking. It is closer to the road than I realized and there is road noise. However I will definitely stay again if I am in the area.
