Wonderful house with amazing views and lots of space for a large family. The kitchen was well stocked with plenty of pantry room. The deck area was the perfect place to end a long day of exploring. Our host was very responsive and provided lots of good information. The only downside to the house is that we did not realize that one of the upstairs bedrooms required access through the adjacent bedroom which meant that neither room had much privacy. That caused a little embarrassment and a lot of coordination but we were able to figure out a system that worked. Overall, definitely a 5 star stay!

The property had some of the best views I have seen in a while, especially of the mountains. The communication with John was fantastic and he was quite considerate of our unpredictable travel. Strongly recommend this.

Thank you for staying with us Karen. We love having our property on this side of the lake because of being so near to so many choices of public lake-side picnic, parking, and facilities. We hope you are able to come back and stay another time! John and Elsa.

It was close to all that we wanted to see. Short drive to Bass Lake, Ca and Yosemite. We also went to Sequoia National Forest. Perfect spot to see all we had planned.

Lovely back porch

We lived on the covered back porch when we were at the house. Nice cool breeze blowing most of the time, great place to watch the wildlife, ate our dinner meals out there! Close to Yosemite National Park. Well equipped kitchen, great starter package of the essentials.

Family and friends with a view

This was a great place for our group of 9. The deck and view were amazing. The house was very clean and had evening we needs for cooking and hanging out. The host was very helpful and readily available. Easy to get to Oakhurst and the lake. Definitely recommend this house for your group.

We had a wonderful stay at this cabin, even though the weather didn’t fully cooperate and it rained quite a bit. The cabin itself was fantastic, clean, comfortable, and well maintained. All of the appliances worked perfectly, and we had very few issues during our stay, which made it easy to relax and enjoy our time. John was especially great to work with; he was very responsive, helpful, and truly went above and beyond to help make our Christmas stay special. Despite the rain, we still made great memories and would absolutely recommend this cabin to anyone looking for a cozy and well-cared-for place to stay.

Beautiful View and Comfortable Accommodations

We stayed here for a large family Thanksgiving gathering, and the accommodations were very comfortable. The beds were comfortable to sleep in, and the views were gorgeous. Unfortunately, the kitchen appliances (stove and oven) were pretty dated, which made cooking a bit challenging as they took a very long time to cook in/on. The floor plan is very open and was perfect for entertaining. We would consider staying here again.

The review most appreciated. We've had no issues with the oven or stove reported in the past, nor for our own use. The cook stop stove is only 3 years old. The oven is older, but it has a vector oven setting and many other different settings. The microwave is brand new. However, with this being for Thanksgiving and a family of 10, we can imagine there would have been some challenges in the kitchen!
