Found the outside area of the property to be messy, areas of the inside cottage to be unclean - dusty glasses, cobwebs on the windows and blinds behind the tv, rugs in bathroom and bedspread in the small bedroom need cleaning. The vicinity of the property to the park was excellent. The cottage had a well stocked kitchen.

Peaceful

Annual trip to the May’s cabin. It’s nice and quiet, allowing for much needed decompression from hectic life. We were pleased to see the new stove/oven and dishwasher. The window A/C in the master was a nice bonus upgrade as well. See you next year.

Mom/daughter Yosemite trip

Total cabin snob here, and I have to say that I was over the top happy with everything this cabin had to offer. Clean, great AC, comfy beds, well stocked, perfect for traveling with dogs, and great location! Only suggestion is to bring floaters with you for the creek which is just down the street!

Lovely cabin inside Yosemite

We were here for 5 days for Spring break with our small terrier. 4 adults. Never been to this location - south - very close to Mariposa Grove. Loved it. Walk to nearby river. Well stocked kitchen. Warm cabin. park right outside. The owners very communicative. Wifi worked and I was able to communicate with my staff in Los Angeles. Don't line up outside the park to get in.. stay IN the park. My daughter turned 21 during the stay and we drove 40 mins to Elderberry house in Oakhurst for a wonderful 5 star dinner. Was manageable.

About the host

Hosted by Mary May (818) 618-1954 or (818) 703-0704

Host profile image
I have been coming to Yosemite since childhood and dreamed of someday owning a cabin in Wawona. As a native Californian, we visited Yosemite often as a family. My family hiked, rafted, and spent time together in this magnificent wonderland.

Why they chose this property

We chose this location due to the close proximity to the South Fork of the Merced River. In the Spring, you can hear the river and enjoy the seasonal stream. There are oaks and pines on the property and the location is perfect for relaxing on the deck.

What makes this property unique

The peacefulness of this location and the charm of the cabin makes one feel right at home.

For pet owners, there is a small fenced area for your dog to roam.
