(6) Squirrel's Nest at The Redwoods In Yosemite

Unique place. Enjoyed the stay!!

It was PERFECT!

Cozy well stocked comfortable

A star each for being in the park, a nice deck and a great shower. The place was dark and gloomy with some needs in the kitchen. No toaster and no dish soap that should be standard without the dishwasher. There was a sponge which makes me wonder how clean the dishes were left in the past. Disappointed.

I want to start with- We did enjoy our stay and the activities the area had. The deck was very nice, and the bathroom was clean and comfortable. We were disappointed with the quality and cleanliness of the cabin. The carpet was very dirty, the bedspread and couch were as well. There was no A/C and the back screen door was broken. Very few kitchen items were provided. We left a day early to find better accommodations. I would not recommend staying here.

During my recent two-night stay at the cabin, I found it to possess a rustic charm reflective of its age. However, there were notable drawbacks that impacted my overall experience. Firstly, the heater in the bedroom appeared antiquated and cumbersome to operate, which deterred us from attempting to use it. This aspect detracted from the comfort and convenience I typically seek during accommodations. Additionally, unlike previous experiences with Airbnb rentals, I encountered silly clean-up requirements. While I naturally adhere to cleanliness standards and always leave spaces tidy, the explicit instruction to remove trash felt unnecessary and somewhat incongruous with the hospitality norms I've come to expect. Such nuances made me appreciate the simplicity of hotel stays. Despite these shortcomings, the cabin did exude a cozy ambiance, which was a redeeming quality. However, considering the price point, I'm hesitant to book again in the future. In summary, while the cabin offered a quaint retreat, the outdated amenities and unconventional cleaning guidelines left me to reconsider its value proposition for future stays.

We were able to check in 20 minutes early, which was nice due to we were both working remotely! The wifi was perfect! The cabin's highlight is the fireplace and unlimited firewood, it was quite cold so it was so nice to have a wonderful fire every evening. The location is beautiful, every window looks into woods, or at another log cabin. There is a small market in walking distance which we frequented.

We don't mind rustic, but this cabin is really outdated and poorly-equipped. The furniture is sagging and uncomfortable, the carpet is old and felt dirty, and the kitchen utensils are dull. We spent one very chilly night without heat, reported it in the morning and took off for the day, but maintenance didn't come until we called 3 more times after returning that evening. (It was just the pilot light). The last day we had no hot water, which we reported as we left town, hoping they'll fix it for the next renter. We did make use of the gas grill and the fireplace. The king bed is comfy and the TV and internet was better than expected. The community is cozy and quiet and the two nearby markets are well-stocked. The park is fabulous, but next time I'd stay in Yosemite Valley. Overall, we found the cabin disappointing. We use both Airbnb and VRBO extensively, and this stay ranks near the bottom.
