Big Oak Flat, California
Our rustic cabin is located on a large, private cattle ranch and captures the Western spirit and style of the Gold Country. Although the cabin feels remote, it is closely situated to Groveland (less than 5 miles) and Yosemite National Park (first gate less than 30 miles). One can hike and explore the ranch for miles in all directions. The flora and fauna are beautiful! It is a charming, picturesque, romantic, and tranquil space for couples and solo travelers to unwind from life's daily stresses and great outdoor adventures.
The cabin was once a hunting and mining cabin and was relocated next to an old sluiceway utilized for gold mining. The small cabin measures about 330 sq. ft. and includes a new bathroom and well-supplied kitchen (i.e., kitchenware). It has a spacious wrap-around front porch and side deck. A rustic, Western-style outdoor kitchen for barbecues is located behind the cabin with a bar area. Situated on the deck are chairs and a table with umbrella for outdoor dining, as well as a Weber gas grill.
You can explore any place on the ranch. The ridge visible to the right of the cabin when looking at the front porch, is a special place to view spectacular sunsets over the Central Valley. Take the camping chairs and enjoy a glass of wine or cocktail while watching the sun go down.

I have stayed here 3 different times and this was no different. It is the best stay for 2 people I can imagine. You are alone with the animals and the stars, yet you have every convenience you could ask for.
Had a great view of the area cabin was clean and cozy. Taken walks around the property and visiting the horses.
This cabin was perfect for my husband and me. We spent one day just relaxing at the cabin and another visiting Hetch Hetchy. We couldn't have asked for anything better!
The cabin is fabulous. We used it as a base of operations to explore Hetch Hetchy. It was perfect. Some driving. But worth it to not be in the Evergreen Lodge etc etc etc. The cabin is tiny but - for us - it lacked nothing. The kitchen is very well thought out. We made three dinners and wanted for nothing. There is every type of coffee maker available. The property is massive and fun to explore. We hope we return soon.
Great place to stay. The ranch is very unique and the animals provide good company. The cabin itself is well appointed and has everything a person would need. We had a great time and was the most memorable part of our trip to CA.
Amazing location! Perfect destination if you want to relax and enjoy some quiet time. Highly recommend.
If you love an adventure, this is for you! So many interesting things to see. The cabin is rustic farm house. Kitchen is well equipped. We traveled back and forth to Yosemite with ease. Groveland is a cute little town to visit. We went to Sonora as well. Nice shopping there. We had a fantastic time at the cabin. We loved feeding the horses apples and carrots with permission from the host. It was our daily routine. Our weather wasn’t great so we didn’t get to enjoy a lot of outdoor activities at the ranch. Our last day the power was out due to the storm, so it was cold. My only suggestion, would be a generator for those times when there isn’t power.
Trip to celebrate our 43rd Anniversary. Not easy to find using Google maps. Upon arrival the air conditioner was not working & after a 16+ hr. Drive we were pretty frustrated. Called owners & didn't get an answer. She later returned our called but with no solution. Sleepless 1st night in sweltering heat. Thanks to Bob the farmhand who helped us put in a different air conditioner the next day,we got the cabin cooled down & began to enjoy our stay. We loved feeding the horses & mules. Driving up on the mountaintop for evening sunsets. All the necessities that were provided for our stay, except for one thing that was missing, (A regular coffeemaker). Other than those little bumps in the road we enjoyed a good night's rest after our 3 days of hiking in Yosemite. Groveland has some nice shops & restaurants as well. The owner has been kind enough to compensate us for the 1 sleepless night we spent without air which was nice. Would we stay there again, YOU BET WE WOULD.
I loved the location and the area. Beautiful place to stay. About 40 minute drive to Yosemite North Entrance and 1 hour and 30 minutes to Yosemite village. The drive dose not seem to long as the views are amazing. Groveland is nice little town close to the cabin where you can go to some local restaurants or go grocery shopping.
The cabin was charming and well-appointed. Every need was anticipated in the kitchen. It is a perfect getaway to nature and still be quite comfortable. The only negative is that the air conditioning was having difficulty keeping up with the 95 degree heat.
