There's so much to do in the immediate area, from hiking the Willow Creek Trail, half a mile away, to spending a day at Bass Lake Recreation Area, two miles away. Go fishing for bass, trout, Kokanee salmon, catfish, crappie, and bluegill, or head up to Yosemite National Park and the Mariposa Grove of Giant Sequoias, 18 miles away, for a spectacular outing in nature.
No matter the activities you choose to fill your days, you'll delight in returning to this lodge-like home. Step inside to be greeted by warm wood accents, a stone fireplace rising from floor to ceiling, and unique decor that includes Native American artifacts and historical photos of Bass Lake. Stream movies and play board games in the great room, get started on dinner in the well-equipped kitchen with stainless steel appliances, slide open the deck doors to barbecue, and dine at sunset in the fragrant mountain breeze.
Spend your evenings playing Ping-Pong in the garage before retiring to the bedrooms, each with a smart TV. The primary bedroom has a private deck. You'll have two rollaway single beds and sleeper ottoman for extra sleeping space.

The cabin is adorable and more spacious than it looks in photos. We gad a wonderful time, and I could have spent the whole trip outside on the deck looking at nature.
Stayed for the weekend to celebrate our anniversary and Son’s Birthday. Loved the cleanliness and floor plan of the cabin. Had everything we needed! It was close to the lake! We’ll definitely be back there soon!

Wishing Well Cabin
Very clean and spacious home. Not to mention the beautiful decor and landscaping! Our party of 12, one week stay was perfect! Comfortable beds, fully stocked, large patio and grilling space, close to the lake.. I would highly recommend and look forward to booking this home again for our summer vacations! Thank you!
The accommodations were ok, pull out beds were really uncomfortable and not enough linens in the house. The ac/swamp cooler did not work and my family was extremely hot and in the nighttime got worse. Rear balcony hand rail is loose and felt unsafe with our kids around it. Little rickety, old wood maybe. The houses key code did not work upon arrival, so we called customer support and was placed on hold for over 45 mins. Finally we received a customer rep and the situation was corrected. The 2nd time it happened we were left outside the cabin for an hour. The cabins cleanliness was just OK as the bathrooms could use a better cleaning job. The upstairs toilet was dirty and did not even look cleaned. The house is decor was pleasant and welcoming, overall was an OK experience, wish it would have been better for the price I paid. Next time I’m in the area we’ll just look for more options.

Thank you for taking the time to share your detailed feedback about your stay. We are truly sorry to hear that several aspects of the accommodations did not meet your expectations, especially the comfort of the pull-out beds, the limited linens, and the issues with the AC and swamp cooler. We completely understand how uncomfortable it must have been for your family, particularly during the nighttime. The safety concern you raised about the loose rear balcony handrail is very important, and we will be sure to pass this along to our local team immediately so they can address it promptly. We also apologize for the trouble you experienced with the key code and the long wait times when contacting customer support. Regarding the cleanliness of the bathrooms, we are sorry that the upstairs toilet was not up to standard. Your comments will be shared with our housekeeping team to ensure improvements are made. While we are glad to hear you found the home’s decor pleasant and welcoming, we understand that overall your experience was just okay and that you expected more for the price paid. We truly appreciate your honest feedback as it helps us improve our services and the quality of our homes. We hope to have the opportunity to better serve you in the future.
