The cabin was great and in a nice location. Very quiet and remote. Kitchen nicely stocked. Absolutely everything you need is here including shampoo, conditioner, and body wash. My husband and I would consider staying here again. The hot tub is not operating and this should be noted on the listing.

This property was amazing with the exception of the cleanliness of the bathrooms and beds. When we arrived it was clear that none of the sheets had been changed (there was hair on all the pillows!) Additonally, there were hairs in the shower and on the sinks. I messaged Jessica the property manager and she said that she would provide a full refund if the cleaning fee which I appreciated, however it has now been a month since our stay and we still have not received our refund. This house has all the potential, it just needs to be properly managed.

The location is terrific and a quick drive to Yosemite Valley. There are a few gravel roads nearby to walk on, but no real trails nearby. Seems like the hot tub is not available to guests and the BBQ was without propane. But the beds were terrific and the appliances worked. It is beautifully decorated with comfortable furniture and artsy decor; very family friendly. Bring your own paper towels and napkins altho toilet paper was plentiful. Overall, we would book them again.

Beautiful home and location inside Yosemite!

We spent the last 5 days at this beautiful Foresta home with 2 bedrooms -- one with a queen full size futon, and one with a queen bed and en-suite bathroom. Everything was as advertised. We couldn't use the hot tub as it's closed Nov-May as to avoid frozen pipes, but we would love to return again, either in winter or summer! Being 20 minutes from the Yosemite valley floor (Bridevail, etc.) was truly wonderful. We woke up to deer in our backyard twice. :)

Lodging in the Valley

Perfect quiet location within the park. Easy to drive to and from and throughout the park. Views are beautiful from the rear/deck and private. Home is tastefully appointed and very cozy and homey. Only issue we had was getting spa to heat. Otherwise fabulous stay.
