Unfortunately the house does not conform to the quality standards advertised The hot tub had dirty water , the light was indicating to change the filter and the water conditioner. The water was torbid. The kids could not use it. As for the adults we found the bathrooms to be below standard a huge caulking bead in the shower was growing mold. The mattresses were old and out of shape leaning towards the outside edge. The sliding door was very hard to operate. The carpet so dirty you could not go barefoot. … Not worth the money. The property manager was hard to get a hold of. On the positive side: The surroundings are fantastic and the patio has a fireplace/bbq that is very nice.
Our stay was great! The cabin had everything we needed. There were some extra unexpected nice touches. For example the grill and the washer and dryer were of good quality. The beds were ok. The cleanliness was ok, (found old food left on the cutting board). The patio table did not appear to be wiped down upon our arrival. The front door locking mechanism was tricky. The deadbolt does not appear to be working. I wasn't sure what the envelope on the kitchen counter was for? With all the fees and costs associated with our stay, I can't imagine that we were expected to leave a tip too. We were grateful to be in the park, it was nice to have immediate access to the Yosemite Valley and there were many wonderful things to see and do in the immediate area.
This is not a gorgeous designer cabin. This is an old place badly in need of updating, that smells strongly and exactly like a nursing home. I was fooled by the description and photos SO I am warning you. Everything is old - 1950s old, except the TV, which was missing a remote to make it work properly. The beds were flimsy and old. When my husband rolled over in bed, I felt like I was in a boat about to capsize. Even the fire information on the wall was old, with the wrong name of the cabin/mgt company, and wrong info about the fire extinguisher. After a few days there, I started to detect a faint smell of diarrhea permeating the master suite. The decor -both built-in and accessoried - and the smell work together to make you feel like you will turn the corner to find a little old lady napping in a wheel chair. The documentation posted around the house does not give helpful hints about how things work, but rather lists rules and warnings that you are in danger of being charged extra for leaving dishes in the dishwasher, etc. The warning notes along with the attitude of the property manager made us feel like we were a huge inconvenience to have there. The housekeeping staff and maintenance staff were very responsive and friendly, and tried to be helpful but the TV never worked well. The cabin was nicely cleaned inside, except that the smell indicates a need for a deep cleaning that includes replacing carpet, etc. The air conditioning worked well and the water pressure in the shower was good.
Large house, with comfortable beds and everything you need to cook. Walking distance from local store and the awesome hike to Chilnuana Falls.
We stayed here while visiting and exploring Yosemite for the first time. It is about a 40 minute drive to the Valley from this house. We loved that the home is in Yosemite so we didn’t need park reservations and we never had to sit in like at the park entrance. This home was well stocked with everything we needed.
Fantastic place to spend thanksgiving with family. Very relaxing and cozy. Really appreciated the wood on Gand for the fireplace
The pictures don't do it justice. We were so comfortable in the house that my only regret is we didn't spend more time in the gorgeous patio among rocks and tall trees. The house is nestled way off the beaten path. Wawona has a wonderful store that had everything we needed. And the drive back and forth to the various parts of the park were gorgeous. Glorious sunsets and vistas driving back to the house each evening after our hikes and excursions. We'll return.
The cabin and lovely backyard setting are just right for a family gathering.
Loved the location and the property. Only issue we have is the air conditioning never seemed to cool the house off. It would eventually cool off as the outside temperature dropped in the evening but the air conditioner did not seem to change the house temp very much during the late afternoon and early evening when we were there. We decided to use the overhead fans to help cool the house only to find that the ones in the bedrooms were covered in not just a light layering of dust but enough dust that it was in clumps. We ended up cleaning off the fan in the master bedroom so we could use it, but it was covered and quite dirty. Otherwise enjoyed our stay, the kitchen was nice, had everything we needed, and the deck outside was awesome. Would stay again, although maybe not in the heat of the summer.
It was awesome to have a house inside Yosemite NP so we didn't have to get day permits. The house had a great back porch and grill, but needed TLC overall. There were no dish towels, bathroom rugs, and we found out the first night that the master bathroom toilet didn't work. The property manager was not flexible on check-in time and not very responsive. It took several tries to get her to respond to the toilet being broken. She did have a plumber come out that evening to fix the toilet, but overall the experience with the communication with her for the entire stay could have been better. Also, the plumber was not able to totally fix the toilet. The house overall met our needs in terms of having a place for our family of 8 to stay and cook for a few days in beautiful of Yosemite National Park.
