My son and I absolutely enjoyed our stay at this cabin. I booked this trip very last minute and the host was able to accommodate. I read the great reviews and it didn’t disappoint. The cabin was very cozy and being able to see and hear the river flowing directly behind the cabin was so peaceful, exactly what I was looking for. The bed was so comfortable, we slept very well and the host was very nice, offered very helpful information and was easy to contact. There is a market just a short walk/drive up the road that was pretty well stocked with items needed that I forgot to get at the grocery store on the way up there so that was pretty convenient. We did have to change the dates due to a power outage caused by a recent snow storm but that actually worked out in our favor bc had we went the original dates I had booked, we would not have had the opportunity to experience seeing the FireFall at El Capitan bc it was not visible during the days I had originally planned on going so my son and I were very happy about that. 10/10 highly recommended and will definitely book again. I hope I can come back in the summer

Wawona/Yosemite Cabin

Beautiful location, peaceful, quiet and close to the South fork of the Merced River. Cabin was super nice and clean. The back deck was used a lot with a gorgeous view of the river. Everything went smooth with booking and check out.

My family loved the sound of the running river, paddling in the water and hiking through the trees. House was exactly as it was described, perfect for a group of 5. Beautiful view from deck. Questions answered quickly. Definitely would recommend this place to stay. From Wisconsin and England

Wawona Yosemite Visit

This property is ideally located with an amazing view of the river from the back deck. The local market store is a 3 minute walk and you’re right in the national park. We loved the wood burning stove which kept the house toasty. Everything you could need was there. This is a great place to relax and enjoy nature.

Well equipped cabin

We were familiar with the area, and were fortunate to have great weather for March. Wawona is peaceful compared to Yosemite Valley. Since we knew that we brought all of own food along, otherwise it’s a distance to a restaurant. The kitchen is well equipped for food preparation. This is a lovely property for a family/friends gathering.

We, being 2 families (7 people in total), had the most amazing stay at the property. The location is just divine with the river and brilliant rock jump just a stones throw away and it’s close to all the best sightseeing locations in Yosemite. Would definitely recommend!!!

Beautiful location with the sights and sounds of the full river in the “backyard”. It’s as the photos show - felt like a trusty old family getaway. Owner was quite responsive.

Lovely space for a family

It was probably too much space for us but the location on the water and inside the park was too good to pass up. I loved the kitchen (we cooked a lot) and the back porch. It had everything we needed and more.

great location and view

the property was great for the 3 adults we had traveling, clean, gorgeous views and good kitchen. The host is responsive and we had everything we needed. our only comment is the comfort of the couch. since our stay was in winter over xmas, we spent time indoors at night and the couch was not ideal for football and movie watching.

Redwood cottages in Yosemite

The cabin was neat and cozy and the kitchen was well equipped. We spent little time in the cabin because we preferred to be outdoors. It was wonderful going to sleep to the sound of the rushing river. Yosemite is an awesome park with amazing hikes and views.Kip was very responsive to questions we had.It takes about 40 minutes to get to the center of the park but it’s a much shorter time to Glacier point and Mariposa Grove.

Just Perfect After a Day in Yosemite

We loved our stay here. It would be hard to top the splendor of Yosemite but coming “home” to this cabin was close. It was so peaceful and beautiful! The river rushing by the property, the brilliant stars at night, drinking our morning coffee on the deck with the river our view…wow! It doesn’t really get any better.
