(2N) Big Pine Lodge at The Redwoods In Yosemite

Very nice property. I thought there might be a problem with no AC when the temperature was in the 90s, but opening the screened windows at night and closing the curtains when we went out was all that was needed to be comfortable. The only minor quibbles. The Internet gets too slow for movie streaming most days between about 6pm and 8pm. (presumably when everyone is getting back from their day) Not a big deal, but it did make our kid antsy about getting back before everyone else. Two of the ceiling fans weirdly had one or two blades backwards, which negated their effectiveness.

This is a beautiful cabin and I can highly recommend it! Our family of 3 adults and 3 twens just spent a few days there after the New Year. We loved the rustic decor, floor plan (there is a loft and a bedroom/bath upstairs and two nice sized bedrooms and a bath downstairs) and well-equipped kitchen. The furnace and the fireplace worked fantastic and we had a warm and cozy house. Beds were comfy and the rooms/baths very clean. WiFi is available, but there is no big TV or other electronic entertainment besides a DVD player - and a handful of old DVDs. Hence, this cabin is for winding down! Bring your books, games and puzzles! Regarding Wawona: the village is great starting point for any Yosemity adventure. We did some fun hikes in the snow in Mariposa Grove and Yosemite valley. Since Wawona only has a small grocery store, its best to bring all your food/drinks before to avoid trips back to the next bigger supermarket, which is in Oakhurst. I would book this house again in a heartbeat.

Located inside the park! Avoid park reservations and delays at park entrance!

Positives: great forest cabin experience, good amount of space, a block to the small Pine Tree market, close to Chilnualna Falls trailhead, nice barbeque grill that worked great, cabin well kept, located inside the park so we avoided entrance lines Negatives: dated furnishings, beds weren't great, board games in the house would have been nice Overall, it was pretty much what you would expect from an older, somewhat rustic cabin in the woods, which was great for us!

Great place to stay for a Yosemite weekend.

We were a group of 6. Property was clean and kitchen pots, pans, utensils well stocked!

Great house but be aware of the picnic table. The cabin was neat and clean. The beds were comfortable. Be aware though if you put three adults on one side of the picnic table it will flip over on you. No one was hurt and it made for a funny vacation story. Just think there should be a warning for future visitors. Our picnic table with an attached bench at home does not do that.

This cabin was easy to find, easy to park. Convenient layout. Could definitely sleep 8 people. Sitting on the deck is nice, quiet. The location wasn't quite what we expected, I have to say -- the photos suggest the cabin is in the woods, but it's actually in a neighborhood, in the woods, surrounded by other houses, a few small cabins, and a bunch of outbuildings. The rooms are also smaller and darker than the photos suggest. It's a cozy place, but not a lot of sunlight is coming in. Beds were reasonably comfortable, but the pillows and linens could use an update. We really liked staying in Wawona, for sure -- way less hectic than Yosemite Valley. That's a big plus.. The Redwoods management was easy to work with too. The cabin is close to the little store there as well, which was really handy for us.

The property and location of it is not what you see in the pictures. I’ll be shocked if you don’t get disappointed in first place. Be prepared for that Water pressure was bad until they fixed it a day later Inside is too dark and sad. Doesn’t give you a positive feeling. It’s like an old grandmas house Who drives 6 hours to BBQ on a propane grill. I want wood fire which you’re not allowed. Big bummer

We had 5 teenagers and 4 adults and had plenty of room. Great amenities and nice location. Would definitely stay here again.

Had a great time in this property. Well appointed inside and out for a large group. Only complaint was water pressure at times.
