The property was charming and just as described by the host. We enjoyed the comfortable beds and linens. The hot tub was relaxing. The small local store was a good stop for ice cream or coffee. This was a good place for 4 adults. We would stay again in the spring to enjoy the snow melt.

We had a very nice stay in this cabin. What an advantage to stay inside the park! The river was so refreshing. The cabin was clean and had everything we needed. The river really is the star of the property.

Awesome location!

I know Wawona fairly well and this cabin is positioned perfectly! It’s right above the main swimming hole and the sound of the river is amazing at night. It’s an old cabin but has everything you need.

Beautiful location - great accommodations!

The house was clean and the instructions to find it and to get into the house and the check-in check-out process were flawless. One thing to be aware of the downstairs bedroom has two bunkbeds so that sleeps for., not three bunkbeds, like it says in one location.The jumping rock and the river are gorgeous. The wildlife was great. It was wonderful being in Yosemite for a couple nights.We are looking forward to visiting again in the futureIt was my wife and myself three teenagers and one adult child

Property was nice and it was close to the river. A little on the expensive side for being an older place, but I would definitely stay there again with a little larger party to break up the cost a little. With bunk beds in the one room, you could sleep 4 children and then 4 adults in the others. I think they described it as sleeping 10 people…but definitely not 10 adults. Overall a nice place that is well kept and we had a nice stay…would recommend for 2 families max.

Great Home on the River

This was the perfect place for two families with young children. The house was very clean and well appointed. The only minor drawback was the small kitchen, since we were cooking for 8 people. Luckily the weather was beautiful and we were able to make use of the grill and amazing deck. I would definitely book this rental again.

We are glad you enjoyed your stay! The kitchen has an oven stovetop with a microwave range hood, a large sink, dishwasher and large fridge/freezer. There is ample cookware and a few open cabinets for storing your dry food. We also have a large 5 burner gas grille on the deck outside the kitchen. Thank you, John

All about that rock!

We had our two boys aged 11 and 12 and it was all about the swimming hole! Truly a gift. Yosemite itself is just an overcrowded hot desert mountain but the reason we’d ever come back is bc of this spot. Inside the park so you can avoid the lines/check in? Heck yeah. The market right up the road has everything you need including delicious tuna steaks which I cooked on the grill! Decent amount of kitchen supplies but be sure to ready to wash. Not the biggest kitchen. All in all, a great place and we’d love to come back one day in the future.

Picturesque cabin on the river

Lovely cabin with stellar and serene views of the south Merced River. Located inside Yosemite Park was extremely convenient and we saved hours of waiting in car lines to enter the park. In the mornings we explored Yosemite National Park and in the afternoons we swam, fished, and played in the river. There is a lovely market called Pine Tree at the end of the street, a nice walk to pick up any items needed for the week. At night we fell asleep to the calming sounds of the river below. Would 10 out of 10 recommend. Such a beautiful and memorable trip for our family.

Great location

Great location but cabin could be updated and cleaned better. There were dirty washcloths in bathroom and dirty bath mats hanging outside. The bedrooms with the king downstairs is very small and the kitchen counter space is tiny. There is an odd and pervasive smell too.. but the location is great. The decks fabulous and the beds comfortable. Just needs some housekeeping attention and the smells addressed.

In 10 years of renting our river cabin on this platform, as well as other listings and platforms, I have NEVER had a guest as rude, unreasonable and entitled as Cathleen. Avoid sharing your place with her, she’s not worth it. I had excellent communication with her and as soon as she couldn’t get ahold of me for a very short while, she went sideways and immediately and rudely demanded an unreasonable refund, despite my attempts to kindly help her asap. There are 2 sides to every story and she is one of the worst in 10 years of renting with over 1000 guest stays. Avoid at all costs.

Perfect family vacation in the park

We loved our stay at this property! A few hundred steps to the river and swimming hole and the view of the river from every window and the deck. Comfortable beds and kitchen was equipped with the essentials. We hiked to the Wawona Dome from the house and the Swinging Bridge in Wawona as well. Saw 9 deer from the deck during our stay and many blue jays. Looks like there is another deck in construction currently, only feedback would be to find a way to lock that door by key so that kids in that room can't access an unfinished deck. The house was clean and stocked with plenty of sheets, towels, etc. Great gas grill as well. We will definitely be back!

The stay was great but there were things that were very disappointing for the money that we paid

The stay was great but there were things that were disappointing, the floors were very dirty like they hadn’t been cleaned in a very long time, there was dog or cat hair everywhere on the floor and in the carpet , there was no blender in cabin and some dishes were dirty, also the dish sponge was dirty with good residue, it’s a beautiful cabin with a hreat view it just needs a little more cleaning

Beautiful location, rustic cabin

We really enjoyed our stay, despite arriving in mid July during a heatwave and realizing there is no AC. I completely overlooked that detail in the listing and we were traveling with our older parents who were not pleased. The cabin is very rustic but clean and there are fans in every room. The river below is gorgeous but getting down is steep! My parents were unable to get down to the river which was a bummer. We, on the other hand, enjoyed floating and swimming every afternoon after we got back from Yosemite Valley. Also, the Chilnualna Falls trail in the neighborhood is a must do! So beautiful and a quick hike.

Merced River was great

We enjoyed our stay in Wawona very much. It was a perfect spot to stay and visit Yosemite. The house overlooks the Merced River and we spent a lot of time down at the river. Please note, there is no air conditioning. For most of our stay that worked fine, but we did have one evening that it was quite warm and for some reason that also happened to be the same night a very rowdy group of young people went down to the river well past quiet time hours. Every other day, it was actually pretty quiet on our little dead end street. The house is older, but in good shape. It fit our family well and there is a lot of deck space outside to sit and enjoy looking over the river at the end of a day. I would definitely stay there again if we are ever in the area.

Great location

The location was great. The jumping rock was the key to this property. I was not impressed with the home itself. I honestly was disappointed as I walked in. The kitchen was extremely old and needed desperate upgrading. If it wasn't for the jumping rock and the location of this home I would have found elsewhere to sleep. There was a washer and dryer that was not hooked up, which was also unfortunate. There was NOT a laundry facility near by for private renters to use either.
Response from VrboOwner on 21 March 2020
We were installing the washer and dryer while this guest stayed. It had not been advertised for this guest, and was a new add-on. However, now it is fully functional, as well as the cabin being totally remodeled and updated. It has maple hardwood floors, stainless appliances, granite countertops, a new redwood deck, new furniture, new patio furniture, new kitchenware, spa on the deck, etc. It is beautiful and very comfortable.

Great stay!

We loved the location! Our stay was great. 10 of us were in the cabin, it was a little tight but we didn't mind it. We all slept on a bed, had pillow, towel, blanket and that's what matter. Only issue for us was the size of the kitchen, not a lot of counter space and no where to put our things. The stove is small and are is just overall small. If you aren't going to be cooking or only one person cooking it may ok but we cooked all meals and a few of us cooked so that wa hard. Also, it rained and their was a little leak downstairs, again it didn't bother us as it was in a doorway and it was very small. We also lost power and water the last day we were there but that was not a home/owner issue, it was a neighborhood thing that happened because of the storm. The owner is responsive and willing to do what he can so you enjoy your stay there. I would definitely stay here again!
Response from VrboOwner on 21 March 2020
The cabin will sleep up to about 12 in beds, if you are a large or a couple close families. We do it all the time and love it. It also has so much outdoor deck/living space in addition to the river. We love it! We have a 24" 4 burner cooktop/oven with a microwave range hood. We have also cleared a few cabinets since your stay for dry food storage. The fridge/freezer is large also. Coffeemaker, blender, toaster and electric griddle are included inside as well as a large 5 burner gas grille outside the kitchen on the closest of 4 decks. Glad we could help with the leak, our handyman is fast and great. Thank you, John
