Best VRBO Ever!

My boyfriend and small dog had an amazing stay here. We can’t speak more to the cleanliness and convenience of the property. With a huge outside space, a creek in the backyard, a jacuzzi, morning birds and light through the trees…we couldn’t have asked for a better stay. Shannon was thoughtful and responsive and an impeccable host. If you have the chance to stay here, you will remember it forever.

Wow!

We have stayed in many vacation rental homes but this one stands out! The hospitality of Shannon is something you rarely find anymore. The home is well stocked from the kitchen with a wide variety of Keurig coffee pods and anything you might need for cooking to luxury hotel like bath towels. The backyard was our kids paradise. They were out there first thing in the morning and loved playing in the creek despite all the mosquitoe bites. We spent one day in Yosemite and the rest of our stay was spent close to the home. The home was the absolute best retreat. Very relaxing and peaceful. I will definitely be recommending this place to all our friends who may be headed to the Yosemite area!

Fantastic

Our family (including dog, Norman) were fully catered to at this cabin! We arrived to light music, warm lighting and treats to snack on while unpacking. What a GREAT setup! I felt the owners anticipated every need we may have had. We could hear the rushing creek from our open windows and fully enjoyed the hot tub each night after a long hike. Beds were very comfy and plenty of hot water! Thank you so much and we will spread the word about what a gem this place is!

Paradise in the Mountains

The pictures don't do this property justice. From the little creek in the backyard to the special touches that Shannon adds, you simply have to experience it for yourself. Five adults and one dog stayed comfortably for three nights. We had plenty of soace, and the large backyard was a fave forvour pup! We took many walks, and spent an entire day at Yosemite which is only 20 minutes away. We also had a great time on the Sugar Pine Railroad. We hope to be back soon!

Lovely Homebase While Visiting Yosemite

We had a great stay! The home was very clean with all that you will need for a comfortable stay. The open layout was great for visiting. The hot tub and the large grassy backyard were lots of fun. It was great to have a grassy space to play fetch and soccer with our lab. The laundry facilities were very helpful as well.

Great Stay

We had a wonderful stay. There were 2 couples and I loved that each of us was able to have our own "floor". I have never seen such a well-stocked home! The kitchen is beautiful. We spent a lot of time on the deck, watching the stars.

Located off the beaten track, this beautiful home is in a peaceful neighborhood a few miles from Bass Lake and Oakhurst. Conveniently located, it is only about a half hour drive (minus any wait time) to the south entrance of Yosemite and Mariposa Grove of Giant Sequoias. We did get slightly lost when first arriving but a quick call to the owners got us right back on track. The home has been exquisitely designed and decorated with great taste and forethought. The king bed is very comfortable as is the adjoining room with a queen bed and bunkbeds. The walk-in shower is lovely with a beautiful stone design and shower bench. All the kitchen appliances were great quality and the Keurig coffee maker had both a coffee pot and kcups. The owners even thoughtfully supplied various coffee kcups to use. The wifi was fast and I was able to easily grade papers and answer emails in the evenings for my virtual class. The creek is at the end of the very large, beautifully kept yard with a gazebo and chairs to enjoy the ambiance of the soothing sounds of water. Lots of birds, butterflies, and a doe with twins were spotted in the yard. My husband uses a walker and greatly appreciated the ramp from the driveway onto the deck and then into the house with no problem. The laundry is in a separate small building on the deck, but it had nice washer and dryer and great space to fold clothes. The owners were phenomenal and were so gracious and helpful, they made us feel at home even before we arrived.

Beautiful and Serene

Our stay was amazing. We went there to celebrate my adult daughter's birthday. The house was so cute and welcoming. Shannon was an amazing host and there was everything that we needed and more. The yard was huge and beautiful and so relaxing with lounge chairs. And the sound of the creek at the back of the property was just an added bonus. We definitely plan on visiting again.

LOVED IT!!

This was a perfect spot for our weekend getaway. The house was nice and warm with a fire waiting for us as we arrived and the host added complimentary touches that made us feel very welcomed. We enjoyed time by the creek and of course the hot tub in the cold weather. It was a beautiful place to return to after adventures on trails and the snow. We loved it and hope to return in the future.
