I spent one night at this location and had a great time. The hot tub was great and the entire place was very clean. Would definitely come back again!
Clean and neat. Just up the road from Oakhurst (10 minutes) - nice town for shopping & restaurants. My initial impression was that it was a long way (1hr 45 min) from Yosemite Valley, until I figured out that everything outside the Park was a long way from Yosemite Valley! I would stay there again.
The Owl's Nest was very clean and comfortable. We found the bed to be surprisingly VERY comfortable and slept well. The place had everything needed to enjoy your stay, such as pots and pans, and dishes. The pictures provided are not representative of the current condition of the hot tub, however it functioned enough to ease our muscles after strenuous days of hiking in Yosemite. The place was quiet and we felt a lot of privacy. We enjoyed our time while staying there
This is a bright and clean studio apartment perfect for two people. Everything worked, the bed was comfy and the shower was hot. Once the owners replace the hot tub cover, it will be great. The only downside to this property is the traffic noise. Perhaps if we stayed in the back apartment it would not be so noisy. And, yes we would stay here again.
The place was very nice and clean. We had no problems with the hot tub or any appliances in the house. It was easy to communicate with the owner’s which was nice.
Clean, cozy, nicely done. Comfortable bed. Wish there could have been some paper plates, napkins, plastic sandwich bags to pack sandwiches in for leaving for the day to hike. Shower turned cold at times. All in all it was very nice.
We loved our stay at the Owl suite! It was clean, had everything we needed and the best part was the private hot tub! Thanks!
We enjoyed our three day stay. The owners were communicative and responded to questions quickly. The room was large for two, clean and had all of the items we needed. The property grounds don't offer much beyond the rooms, but since you are close to some of the most beautiful scenery on the planet, it's best to get out anyway! Good shopping and restaurants nearby in Oakhurst, which is on the way to the Yosemite Southgate. We especially enjoyed Southgate Brewing for both beer and food. There are also some nice trails nearby for those days when you may want a break from Yosemite. Would certainly stay here again.
Comfortable unit close to Yosemite. Oakhurst is close by which features restaurants, grocery stores and other things you may need. Very comfortable stay!
Perfect spot to land and rest!
Was perfect for our trip to Yosemite. Definitely close to everything you might need, it's just a few miles down the road. The Owl Suite was amazing and perfect for 2 to 3 people and I even got a chance to enjoy the hottub. Seriously was perfect for a couple nights trip. Would definitely definitely stay again.
