“Oasis of comfort in Yosemite West” The hosts were great. The location was great. The apartment was clean, well equipped and spacious. We had an amazing time, just wish we could have stayed longer. I would highly recommend this place to anyone.

“My dream-land :-)” This is truly the best place I have ever stayed at. Well stocked with everything you desire away from home! Very romantic setting & friendly owners :-) This was my dream-land that I can't wait to get back!!!

“Great family house” Super nice house - pictures are accurate- house was clean and fully stocked - Went with my 5 kids and husband and there was loads for kids to occupy themselves with, tree house, creek, a Wi, foseball table, and board games, lots of TVs - awesome wrap around large balcony - tons of birds!!! Very enjoyable stay. I would recommend.

“Yosemite wonder! Excellent house!” We loved this house! The location was perfect and the neighborhood quiet! We traveled with our teenagers. 14 and 17. The short drive to the hikes was the key! Stay at the house, use the kitchen for dinner and you will have no regrets if you are looking for a vacation that has beautiful sites and a relaxing, comfortable, clean house! The owner emailed usfantastic advice - nice man!

“Awesome place at a great location!” Rented Alpine Hut to explore Yosemite first time with family. We had a wonderful time and loved the bright/open/modern aspect of the home. I would definitely like to re-book when I visit next time. Totally worth it! Suggestion to the owner: fix the microwave please. it's too noisy!

“Great stay at Knarly Oaks” We had a great time during our stay here with 4 adults and 2 pre-kindergarten age kids. The house is very spacious and the kitchen area worked well for making our own meals. We all enjoyed the pool and spa and spent some time in them each day. The owners were very responsive to my questions before and during our stay. I would definitely recommend this place to family and friends travelling to the area and would stay here again on a return trip.

“Cozy and inviting!” We spent a wonderful week in this very well appointed log cabin with our family. Our time up in the Mariposa area, especially the Yosemite Valley and the outdoor fire pit, made treasured memories for years to come for all of us.

“Our stay was comfortable and relaxing.” The cabin we stayed in had every amenity we needed, plenty of firewood and gas for the grill, and a good amount of space and layout of rooms. Our only issues were somewhat minor: the hot water heater's pilot light was out when we arrived, and we had to wait until the following morning for someone to come light it because we didn't know where the hot water heater was to light it ourselves; and the downstairs level got quite smoky after we had lit fires in the upstairs fireplace. The location was perhaps a bit further from the Valley floor than we would have liked, but not so far that it prevented us from going there. Overall, we enjoyed the cabin very much. The plumbing and heating were good, the kitchen was well stocked with cooking and dining supplies, and there was plenty of space and comfortable seats for socializing and relaxing.

“Fantastic” We held a sibling reunion in this fantastic home. The location is just outside Mariposa Grove inside Yosemite National Park. The home was very clean and very modern with plenty of room for all. The deck was fantastic with a gorgeous view of Mt. Raymond. The property was lovely and we spent time each day walking to see its beauty. Overall a perfect location and the owners were great.

“Good experience, even though we didn't actually stay” We had to cancel our trip at the last minute due to the Oct 2013 government shutdown and were worried that we would be out the already-paid rental fee. Hans (the owner) was very generous in refunding our entire fee, despite the loss it would be to him. He was very responsive through the entire booking (and cancelling) process and we would love to stay with him sometime in the future.

“Lovely refurbished property with great location” My family and I wanted to visit Yosemite with friends who were visiting. The cost of hotel rooms in the Valley was excessive when compared to renting a property for the weekend so we chose Yosemite Hideaway. Upon arrival we were very pleased to note how clean the property was and how well the refurbishment had gone. The pictures do not do the place justice. It was perfect for our needs 2 young children and 4 adults. The location is excellent being very close to Yosemite Valley and Mariposa Grove. Please bear in mind that the lcoation is excellent for the road to Glacier Point but this road is closed in Winter by the National Park Service. Please bear in mind that the property is located at the top of quite a few wooden steps and the owners advised us to bring winter chains for the car and our shoes! We did not need them but best to go prepared.

“A little slice of heaven in our favorite place” We love Yosemite and have been visiting for 20 years now. We had never stayed in this area of the park and decided it was time. We found this cabin to be the perfect place for the two of us to celebrate my birthday. The fireplace was so wonderful and the wood is provided. The kitchen is the most well equipped that I have ever experienced in a vacation rental. The adirondack chairs on the deck were comfortable and peaceful...a perfect place for reading a good book. We were like many who wrote in the guestbook and gave up time in the park to just relax in this cabin. The entire area was so quiet and relaxing and at the same time it was easy to get to all the sites. Will return here for sure.

“Awesome house” We enjoyed the views in the evening. GREAT location centrally located to visit Yosemite, Kings Canyon, or Sequoia National Park. Good roads with scenic views. Liza responds to any questions quickly and the Caretaker Steve is a new west coast brother. He even called me a few days in advance to let me know the house would be available if I wanted to check in earlier in the day so we could have extra time to sightsee and he told me what roads to travel for the best views on the way in. it's not often you get a call offering to let you check in early. In a word awesome place!!!

“Amazing!!!” I am a mother to four children (3 boys, 1 girl) and my husband surprised me with this trip. It was amazing! The staff was great. We stayed in Boots Haven (9), this is a charming cabin and very spacious. Clean and nicely stocked. Even though we were there during the government shutdown and weren't able to hike the trails it was still so beautiful. We enjoyed it so much we have vowed to return every year and maybe even bring the kids. ha ha ha

“Great place to stay in Yosemite” The Yosemite West area is great for access to Yosemite Valley or Glacier Point (each less than 30 minutes), and is a welcome relief from the crowds. The Serenity Suite was wonderful for its design, amenities - just about anything you could think of, even a coffee grinder - as well as it's location. Mike and Holly even provide maps and guidebooks for Yosemite. We will definitely stay there on future trips to Yosemite. A few caveats that you should be aware of if you go: 1. The internet at the Suite is currently only good for basic email and web-browsing (this may be changing in the near future), and there is no Cable TV, only a DVD player and DVDs. There may be no phone service at the Suite (there is service in Yosemite Valley and at Glacier Point), but there is a landline phone. 2. The nearest markets and restaurants are in Yosemite Valley or Wawona. 3. Plan to go EARLY to either Yosemite Valley or Glacier Point, or you may be turned away (Glacier Point Rd) or have to circle for hours to find parking (Yosemite Valley).

“A beautiful family experience!” Our stay at Kelly and Fede's Yosemite home was everything we could have wished for. The pictures and description of the home were accurate. Kelly's communication prior to us booking was very responsive and helpful. The home was charming - a big american house! big living area, beautiful stone fire place, huge kitchen facilities and all utilities provided, family dining table, 2 outdoor areas, huge living area and bathrooms. The location in Yosemite and distance to the Valley was perfect for us. Wawona Hotel nearby for an amazing dinner also. My husband, daughter, son-in-law and our little grandson had a beautiful time at this home. Thanks Kelly and Fede, we highly recommend this property. We are all well travelled globally and this was a special place in the world and experience. Ps we want to go back for a winter experience!

“Loved everything about D&E; Digs!” I highly recommend this charming cottage and lovely setting. Donna and Eric are great and a wealth of information. They are accessible if you need them, otherwise they are out of sight. The bed is very comfortable and the kitchen has everything you need. Loved the basket of fruit and muffins. A very thoughtful and appreciated touch. Take a good book or a bottle of wine up to the "hideaway" and enjoy the peace and quiet with the subtle sweet scent of pine needles in the air. Great location too in that it's a short drive to Mariposa or Oakhurst for a night out to good restaurants. We had a great stay in a great place and great hosts in Donna and Eric. We will no doubt return!

“A gem!!” Spacious, clean, quiet, secluded and comfortable. This dome house was exactly what we were looking for. For the pet owners, this place is pet friendly. There is a nice secure fenced area for the dog, no pet fee is a big plus for us. It was also nice to meet Irene and Brad, they are thoughtful and wonderful hosts. I had many questions about the area but they were willing to answer any questions I threw at them. Can't wait to come back.

“Best of Both Worlds” Imagine a vacation in a wooded area overlooking a creek; hiking trails a short walk away, a hot tub under the stars, nearby are mountain vistas. You are in a National Park. And best of all you have all of the ammenities and comforts of home - full kitchen, living room with comfortable sofas, game room, laundry. All beutifully decorated. Would definitely recommend and am looking forward to coming again in the future.

“Wonderful base for relaxing after day in park!” Wonderful home to rent for a stay in Yosemite. Clouds Rest Cabin is in a meadow area called Foresta, in the park but away from the crowds. So nice to sit out on the porch with some coffee every morning enjoy a Fabulous view of El Capitan and Half Dome. A peaceful retreat to relax and recharge after a day of hiking in the park. Very clean, spacious and comfortable. The owner Noreen was great to work with, friendly and helpful.
