Quiet Get Away
This place is really nice, quiet, and peaceful. I’m a morning person, so I loved the quiet peaceful morning. Not crowded at all. You rarely see your neighbors which I love. If you want to cook, there’s a small electric stove for a quick breakfast/dinner. It is about 1 1/2 hour to Yosemite. So you spend some time on the road. I would love to come back in the future and definitely will be recommending to family/friends to stay here. ☺️

Great Experience
Our stay was amazing. Had trouble getting inside , I messaged the owners through the app and they were soo helpful! Responded right away. Everything was great , the bed was super comfy. The place very cozy and clean. I have never seen a carpet so clean. They offer a mini fridge which was perfect for our needs. We do like cooking at our stays so it was awesome thay they offerred an electrical burner. This was a memorable experience. A great start to the new year and best birthday.

Comfortable and Cozy
The overall experience was really nice. My girlfriend and I stayed for 2 nights while we visited Yosemite park. Oakhurst was our best option for food and take-out which ended up pretty good. The Sterling suite was very cozy and comfortable with very little noise or commotion from neighbors staying next to us. There was adequate information and advice for visiting Yosemite and the outer lying 25 miles or so. I would highly recommend staying here for anyone wanting to visit yosemite, the drive to the south entrance was about 40 minutes from the property. The one and only complaint we have would be the Ants we found during our stay in the kitchen area.

Delightful property, perfect for our needs
The property was well equipped and just as described. It was easy to find and close to the road from Oakhurst to Mariposa. Owners were on site and very quickly responsive to questions at all times. Wonderful mountain view from the unit. An easy 45 minute drive to the south entrance to Yosemite.

Lovely little place not far from town.
Conveniently located an hour away from Yosemite and a few hours from Kings Canyon and Sequoia National Park. I’ll stay here again if I’m ever back down in the area.

Yosemite couples getaway
We had an an amazing time staying at Sierra Mountain Lodge. We stayed in the “Sterling Suite” & it was just as pictured on the app, and very clean. We always bring our own linens since so many places don’t supply enough, but there was no shortage in our suite. We chose this suite for the King size bed (my husband is 6’2”) & the ample counter space in the bathroom. The location is great - secluded & quiet while still close enough to Yosemite Valley. If cooking for more Than 2, I would recommend bringing your own larger pots and pans, but what was available in our suite worked perfect for us. We made 2 dinners and 1 breakfast on the stovetop grill and BBQ and loved the quaint detailed decor & string lights around the grill and deck. We were a little worried when we arrived as it was super warm upstairs, but by nighttime the evaporative cooling unit had cooled the entire place. The hosts allowed us to check in early which was also great! Would definitely stay at Sierra Mountain Lodge again, to me it’s worth it to have a little longer of a drive into Yosemite if it means having a kitchen, mini fridge, large bathroom, living space, deck, grill etc. I’ve stayed in Yosemite valley before and it’s usually over priced for a smaller space. This was my husbands first time visiting and he loved it as well! Thank you to our hosts.

Quiet retreat
My family and I had a wonderful time staying here. The scenery is beautiful! It’s quiet and clean! Very comfortable! My only minor complaint would be that there are pans but nothing to use the pans on. There is no stovetop or burners. This was fine for my family because we had easy to make cold meals and ate out a couple of times. I can see how this would be a problem for others. Overall, it was a a wonderful stay and I’d book there again.

Thank you for staying with us! The pots & pans are for use on the BBQ’s Side burner, it functions the same as a stovetop.

Very Nice, but a little flaw in the floor plan
The suite we stayed in was two stories. Upstairs there two areas, one area had a king size bed and the other area, next to the bed had a large empty floor space . The difficulty for us was that these two areas were at different levels. We stumbled, forgetting that the step was there, twice. It’s a flaw in the design but I don’t see an easy solution for correcting the uneven floor, short of expensive remodeling.

Thank you for a wonderful stay in the mountains. We stayed during the winter storm this week and it was still a beautiful, cozy stay. Only 10-20 minutes to the surrounding towns and about 45 minutes to get to Yosemite. Very clean, parking available and a cute friendly, outdoor cat to welcome you!!

Perfect Family National Park Visit
Clean, comfortable, great amenities, great location, AMAZING patio view. For our first visit to Yosemite it was a great location. We went to Vons on a regular basis and bbq’d multiple days. Visited Kings Canyon/Sequoias (2 hour drive) & Bass Lake (20 minutes) on the days we didn’t have reservations for Yosemite. Appreciated the detail, extra bath towels provided, deck & view which gave this location a true hotel, Vacay feel.

Absolutely lovely
My daughter and I were so excited when we saw this cute place in person- it is so much more than the photos show. Easy booking, easy check-in, easy check-out. Fab deck view. The thoughtfulness of the hosts are present in every cranny. We truly felt welcomed even with a no-contact check-in. This exceeded our expectations for sure. Thanks for a fantastic stay and for making our mini-vaca that much more special. If you’re planning on visiting Yosemite, be sure to map how far it will be as the park is large!

Pleasant and Relaxing Getaway
We stayed here while visiting Yosemite. The house is conveniently located about 10-15 minutes from the town of Oakhurst where there is restaurants and supermarkets. The house is about 40-45 minute drive to the entrance of Yosemite National Park. We had a very comfortable stay as the house was stocked with toiletries, kitchen utensils, coffee, tea and lots of clean towels. The deck has a gorgeous view with tables and chairs to lounge on and it was wonderful to be able to wake up and enjoy the view with our morning coffee. Since there is no stove in the kitchen, we got most of our meals from restaurants in Oakhurst or we made sandwiches. It was a nice touch that the house provide a cooler which we used during our trips to Yosemite. We were able to buy ice packs from the supermarket/gas station. During one night of our stay, there was no running water as I believe there was an issue with the wells. The host kept us updated and we got water again early next morning. The host also provided up with plenty of bottled drinking water. Our stay here at Sierra Mountain Lodge was relaxing and enjoyable and I would definitely come back here again.

Amazing beauty and location
Our stay was thrilling! We were so comfortable and happy in the spotlessly clean Sterling Suite. The location is amazing in beauty and convenience. We began each day with a gorgeous mountain view and ended each day in the loft bedroom... a lovely and welcoming space with luxurious bed and linens. It was the perfect spot for dreaming about the day's exhilarating sights! We made multiple visits to Yosemite and the Sequoia National Forest during our stay. Please note that there is not a full kitchen--a microwave inside and an outdoor gas grill for cooking. Plenty of restaurants and quality grocery stores nearby. We are grateful to John and Brenda for their kind patience with our many pre-arrival questions. They are marvelous hosts!
