We enjoyed our stay. It was an easy drive in and out of the valley in Yosemite. The beds and the pullout couch were all very comfy. The front porch was a lovely quiet place to enjoy our morning coffee.

It was a nice cabin. The steps to the bedrooms are quite steep. We loved sitting on the front porch. It is quite remote. When you get off the main road, keep going quite a ways past the garbage cans.

Owl Moon cabin was a perfect quiet retreat from the crowds on the valley floor. We had everything we needed to make our own meals and relax in comfort after long days hiking. We loved this little gem in Foresta and would plan another trip around the availability of Owl Moon. Lucy was always responsive. Thank you Lucy for our lovely stay.

Overall excellent experience, the house was super clean and cozy, and the area was very quiet. Yosemite valley was closer than I expected which was great. My only suggestion would be to provide Kleenex and paper towels. But all in all a great experience and I hope to be back!

Great Yosemite Cabin

Our family of four had a great stay! The cabin is well furnished and is a wonderful location to spend a lot of quality time in Yosemite valley. We enjoyed spending our mornings and afternoons at the park and dinner and evenings around the kitchen table playing cards. We would definitely recommend!

Perfect Yosemite Getaway

My wife and I stayed here over July 4th. It was the perfect location to be very close to all the attractions and hiking trails, but still far away from the general crowds. The cabin was clean, cozy, and had all the necessary amenities. Would definitely stay here again.

Owl Moon was terrific

This was a great place in just the right place. Being in the park while just a bit away from the hustle bustle made for a peaceful trip with all the beauty and adventure that Yosemite has to offer. Highly recommend a stay at the Owl Moon cabin.
