About this property

Premier Yosemite/Foresta home with views of Half Dome and El Cap from all rooms!

Rocky Point Guest House is a family owned and operated home located inside Yosemite National Park in the small community of Foresta. We're located inside the park boundary and entrance gates (meaning that you won't have to wait in line to enter the park each day) 7 miles from the Valley Floor. Our home boasts stunning views of Clouds Rest, Half Dome, and El Capitan from nearly every room in the house. While we have rented our property via another site for nearly 20 years with many returning guests, we are new to VRBO.

This was a wonderful home base for exploring Yosemite. The location was ideal, the house was very comfortable to come back to after a full day out, and the host was incredibly responsive and helpful throughout our stay. We’d happily stay here again and highly recommend it.

Spacious house with an incredible views from all windows, very peaceful and surrounded by nature, generous elevated decking with dining table and small seating area. The last section of gravel drive wasn't a problem for our Ford Expedition but may present a challenge for a small car.The house has a rustic Native American vibe and was well stocked. Really loved our time there, the amazing weather helped. Short drive to the Yosemite Valley, the property is in the NP, we didn't need to pay the park fees due to the shutdown!

The two mile road to the property was a bumpy ride but we loved the feeling of being out in what felt like a remote location despite other homes nearby. The valley view is nice to wake up to and watch the sun set on. It was also very convenient to get to the sights we wanted to visit. We only had one night where the sky was clear and dark, but what a treat! We thoroughly enjoyed the decor throughout the house and it was more than well stocked. We felt right at home and were very comfortable. Thank you for sharing your special home with such neat decor with us! It was worth going over our usual budget to stay here!

Amazing place

This property is amazing: The views, the wildlife (we saw deer, heard coyotes very nearby), and the home itself. The home is very clean, in perfect condition, and comfortable - and it’s IN Yosemite National Park, a short drive from Yosemite Valley and other parts of the park. You won’t regret staying here.

About the host

Host profile image
I have been lucky to live in Yosemite for 50+ years, working and raising my children here. Over the past 20 years, I have loved getting to share our family's Rocky Point Guest House in this unique location with guests from around the world.

Why they chose this property

Foresta is a magical place - very close to the valley floor of Yosemite and yet far enough from the crowds to be calm, quiet, and serene. Our property has amazing views of El Cap and Half Dome.
