Nice place
The host responded in a timely manner and he was very informative I really appreciated that. The house was perfect for all of us. It was a little far from Yosemite entrance but, I was aware of it. The house had everything we needed for our stay . We definitely recommend this place.

Great property. The view is beautiful. The house is a great size for extended family. The only downside is there isn't a safe space to walk nearby. The house is on a two-lane winding road with no sidewalks. But would stay here again.

Absolute Perfection!
We traveled to Yosemite for our eldest son’s graduation! I looked at multiple properties and after communicating with the host, we felt confident that it would be the right choice! I was correct……the home exceeded our expectations in every way! From the mountain bluebird, deer and incredible gray fox that came to visit, the view from the deck was spectacular! The home was extremely spacious and our family of three teens were able to enjoy bonding time and then they had privacy within the upstairs bedrooms, bathroom and sitting area! The hosts are excellent communicators and extremely helpful! The property is close to Yosemite ant minutes from Bass Lake! My teens and husband said that it doesn’t deserve 5 out of 5 stars but instead they give it 10!!!!!!!!! I will definitely book again when we return to California from our home in Florida!

Great property, very spacious, good contact with property manager John
Excellent house for families to get together, for kids to run around. House had 2.5 bath, which was important - with a jacuzzi in one of the bathrooms. Very comfortable to stay in. 10 min drive to the supermarket. We were able to drive up to Badger Pass for skiing for the kids from this house. Reasonable prices with reasonable cleaning fees.

Awesome stay
John was awesome to rent from. he gave really good recommendations and pointers. We stood here to visit Yosemite for my wife's 40th bday. The property has awesome views of the sunset and deer running around the yard. The kids loved playing in the yard and swinging in the swings. property was clean and comfy. home had cooking supplies and spices which was helpful. Drive to the gate to Yosemite was about 30-40 min. and another 1 1/2 to the valley. Whole experience was excellent. home was perfect!!!

Excellent Home for Family Thanksgiving
We stayed here for Thanksgiving 2021. The home is quite spacious and had plenty of room for us and our 3 teenagers. The master suite is large with a fireplace and a jetted tub. There are three bedrooms upstairs, one which is a perfect bunk room for the kids. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook all of our meals and two large dining areas for us to enjoy. There is deck in back that has amazing views and was a perfect spot for breakfast. This home is just a few minutes to Bass Lake and a short drive to Oakhurst for food, gas, and groceries. If we are ever back in the area, we would definitely plan to stay here again.

Spacious with a beautiful view
The property was easy to located with John's pointers. We had a really nice time staying at John's & Elsa's home and spending some quality family time. The home has a huge open floor plan for the dining room, family room, and kitchen areas which allows my family to hang out even while we are cooking. The room with the bunk beds and full size bed were a little too hot since there was no air vent. The kids ended up having to sleep on the floor in the main bedroom instead.... The view was beautiful and we even saw the sun set the first two nights. The only bummer thing was there were several persistent wasps outside the deck so we couldn't eat and hang out on the patio. The home was located very close to Bass Lake. We have easy access to grocery stores and restaurants. We had a really nice stay.
