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.

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.

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.

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!

Wonderful cabin!

If I could give this property 10 stars I would! This cabin was just perfect! So nice inside and out! And the wood stove was fabulous after our hike in the snow at nearby Yosemite. We are already thinking of our next trip to the area and will definitely choose this cabin again. The hosts/owners couldn’t have been nicer!

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!

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.
