About this property

Enjoy Yosemite In Peace And Comfort.

Stay inside the gates of Yosemite National Park without the hassles associated with the accommodations offered in Yosemite Valley. You will not have to battle traffic or fight for parking in Yosemite West, nor will you be choking on campfire smoke. Yosemite West is extremely peaceful and quiet even during the big holiday weekends. You can save lots of money by preparing your own meals in the spacious and fully equipped kitchen while enjoying the sunset on the edge of the wilderness. Note this is a duplex and the owner/groundskeeper lives in the separated (100% firewall) unit below and to the right.

Quite House w/ Great Yosemite Access

Loved the Yosemite West location, the view at the end of the road, and a comfortable house. While not flashy, it is quite comfortable. The host, Bill, was great and even went above and beyond to help me with a little request. Thanks, Bill! As with all VRBOs, if there is something missing from the kitchen, just ask!

A GREAT STAY!

This place was absolutely perfect for our stay! It is a beautiful location and Bill has thought of everything to make your stay a special one. The kitchen is very well stocked. There is plenty of room for families to stretch out. The beds are very comfortable. Great communication! I’m very picky when it comes to the properties I stay in, and this place met ALL my family’s needs. I can’t wait to return!

Location! Location! Location!

Due to a family emergency we were going to have to cancel our two weeks that we booked with Bill and lose our payment. However, we reached out to Bill and asked if he would be open to us rebooking for two weeks at a later date and he was very agreeable. This was very generous of him.This location was perfect for all our hiking and snowshoeing expeditions. Accommodations were comfortable and we would recommend others to stay here.

Weekend getaway

My family and I had a blast! This place was spacious and clean and the perfect location being a short drive down to the valley. My girls (12, 12, and 5 years old) enjoyed the area around the cabin exploring and building snowmen. The owner was super friendly and communicative. Highly recommend! I hope to come back again!

Great location and friendly owner.

This is a great location for seeing Yosemite NP. It's inside the gates, so no waiting in line at the entrances. The house had plenty of room and was reasonably clean. The master bed was a bit funky and made the occupants roll toward the center, but

Very nice place inside the park. Owner thought of about every thing we may need, including flour for our sausage gravy, motion lights for going to restroom at night ,Shampoo/conditioner/bodywash. Comfortable livingroom furniture . Couch was used to sleep on by my nephew, no complaints. Yosemite is great, if prone to car sickness need to ride up front. Enjoy!windeDo take note

About the host

Hosted by Bill Russell

Host profile image
After growing up in Wisconsin I finally moved in 1980 to Yosemite to climb the rocks and mountains. In the winter I enjoy skiing the winter snows and when the snow melts into river water I use the same water for kayaking, rafting and fly fishing. I have worked as a rock climbing guide and instructor at the Yosemite Mountaineering School since 1993 and I'm very familiar with all the scenic and recreational opportunities available in and around Yosemite 12 months a year.

Why they chose this property

Yosemite Park Way is at the end of the road and in a less built-up part of Yosemite West. This insures less noise and traffic.
