Sunset Glow *Hidden Meadow*BBQ HotTub by Casa Oso

We really enjoyed our time at Casa Osa. The drive to the property has great views to enjoy along the way and the home is tucked away and very secluded. The home has cute decor and was perfect to celebrate a holiday in.
We stayed here for the weekend since it’s close to Yosemite. The house is beautiful and very clean! We ended up hanging at the house one day just to enjoy it. Highly recommend and would definitely rent again.
Wonderful home with a warm, boho vibe. Everything was clean, thoughtfully designed, and felt instantly comfortable. The location was great for heading into Yosemite (closer to an hour drive but not a big deal) the drive is gorgeous. The owners were fantastic: responsive, kind, and genuinely caring hosts. Highly recommend.
This was a perfect place to stay for our Yosemite National Park vacation.

Very beautiful surroundings and not too far from yosemite or from oakhurst businesses. Host was so responsive to questions and property is nicely appointed.
Great place for family to stay while visiting surrounding area. There wasn’t one thing missing or needed during our stay; the amenities are amazing. I normally don’t cook on vacation but I couldnt wait to use the fully equipped kitchen. There was plenty of space, the view is beautiful, everything you need! I hope we get to stay again in the future!
We went here to celebrate my son for his 12th bday. The kids all loved the house and there was a lot of space for everyone. We got there at night and there are two roads you can take (one paved and one unpaved). We made the mistake the first night and then learned the right way subsequently. It has a beautiful view of the sunrise and everything felt very easy and manageable.
A group of us (4 friends) stayed for two nights in late May to visit nearby Yosemite National Park. The home is clean, bright, open, well-decorated, and spacious. The beds, pillows, and linens are comfortable. The kitchen is well-appointed and we were able to cook and eat 4 meals with ease and comfort. We appreciated that everything in the kitchen was labeled and easy to find. The spa was set up for us and ready for use. The views from the backyard are beautiful and the setting is very quiet. We also appreciated the large screen TV and the assortment of games. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay.
This was an absolutely remarkable way to experience Yosemite via an outside-the-park stay. So much so, that my fiancée and I enjoyed our time at Casa Oso nearly as much as we enjoyed the park itself!
The location is as remote as advertised. Sunrises with a cup of coffee from the vantage point of the patio are sublime. Stargazing at night from the hot tub was dreamlike. Inside, the property felt equal parts homey and upscale.
Maja was beyond helpful as a host, as she responded immediately to our messages and provided thorough communication throughout the entire process.
It worked wonderfully for my fiancée and I, but I imagine it’s even better shared with another couple or two smaller families. Can’t recommend this property enough!
Great Yosemite getaway home for couple or family and dogs
The house is located about 30 minutes to the entrance gate of Yosemite near Wawona and giant sequoias.It’s still about another hour to the Valley floor from the entrance gates.
10 minutes to Oakhurst downtown. There’s plenty of shopping and amenities.
20 minutes to Bass Lake
The house seems like an isolated retreat but still close to everything you will need. The area was quite and peaceful.
Beautifully remodeled home. Everything was clean and stocked. Clearly labeled drawers and home instruction/ info packet was available upon arrival. Hot tub was clean.
Games were available. Ruko TV. Info pamphlets for Yosemite and Other attractions available at the home.
House was dog friendly and had a great yard for the dogs to run and play. The area is not fenced so if you have a dog with poor recall I would keep them on leash. Our dogs enjoyed running up and down the hill.
The host was very helpful and responsive. She provided a list of recommendations before we arrived so we could plan our time. We ended up adding a day after we already booked our trip and she responded promptly. She made herself available if we need anything or had questions, which is appreciated.
Would definitely stay here again on our next trip to Yosemite. Great for a couple or family.

Good, but needs much more attention to detail
Cons: When booking, everything should be in perfect working order and have adequate grilling utensils for those who like to cook. The non-stick pan was NOT non-stick. Knives were cheap. The property needed a non-stick grill plate which would make BBQing easier, cleaner and better. We had immediate problems with the BBQ grill propane tank that kept shutting off. Being a very handy DIY guy, I unhooked the gas line, shook the tank, adjusted the regulator and adjusted the supply line. It worked fine afterwards. Ice maker was frozen and would not dispense ice, so I removed the ice cube bin, thawed it, cleaned it and re-activated. The freezer door water dispenser was laughable. It would take several minutes to fill a small glass, so we removed the water filter from the refrigerator and tried cleaning it. The sediment emitted was unacceptable. So, we drove to the store and bought cases of water. The coffee maker was super cheap and didn't work properly. We had to tilt the coffee pot on the spring loaded filter basket to allow the brewed coffee to fill the decanter. When paying big bucks per night, everything should work perfectly! Instead, we spent hours of aggravation fixing problems so we could finally relax and enjoy the stay. In hindsight, we should have just brought our own stuff! Master shower is very small. Property needs hardscape walking stones from the back patio to the outdoor jacuzzi to not track grass, dirt or mud into the jacuzzi. We had wet, wintry weather which made it challenging. Nearby Yosemite Wawona access was closed and might remain closed for a long time. We had no choice but to drive to the ONLY access to the park via Highway 140 to El Portal. It took about 1 1/2 hours each way with very little traffic. 10am checkout is too early and the policy needs reconsideration. Most hotels allow for 11am or later check-out and you don't have to make your own breakfast, clean, pack food, beverages and take out trash etc. It was very frustrating dealing with problems upon arriving at the property and equally as much having to rush to vacate the property. Pros: House is nicely appointed, clean, has comfortable beds, nice layout, covered rear patio, great privacy and we loved the salt water jacuzzi.
This is by far my favorite vacation home I’ve ever stayed in. The home is nestled at the top of a hill, close to town but you feel a million miles away from any disruptions when your here. The home is really spacious, but the decor, design and layout make the home feel cosy. The home was better than the photos. The beds are really comfortable, kitchen is well equipped and there are personal touches throughout. The spa was so relaxing, you can see the stars so clearly and we saw families of deer a few times. Maya was an excellent host and really responsive. Would definitely stay here again.
The house actually looks better than the pictures. Beautifully decorated and well organized home. Two sets of washer and dryers are a plus if you're travel with 6+ people.
Thank you Maja for hosting me and my family.

We brought the family to Yosemite and rented this charming comfortable house. It is spacious and great for a multi generational family. It was clean and decorated with many thoughtful touches. All of the other reviews are accurate; location to Yosemite, etc. We recommend this property. You can see the care that the owner has put into it.
What a wonderful place to stay and very helpful host. This was a perfect location to Yosemite and town. The property had everything!
Can't wait to return.
Love this property! Very, very clean. My family and I were so relaxed and comfortable in this house that we almost didn’t want to leave to go visit Yosemite National Park (which is an easy 25 or so minute drive to park entrance). We stayed 3 nights and it felt as nice as being in my own home. Maja, the property manager, was quick to respond to when I had a question. This was my first vacation home rental experience and I enjoyed as much as any 5-star hotel experience I have had in the past. The house was just lovely (nicer even than the photo, in my opinion), the area quiet and safe. So happy I chose this rental!
