Luxury Vacation Home Rental

Located inside the gates of Yosemite National Park, our 3 bedroom (plus a den with a pull out couch), 3.5 bath 3200 square foot multi-level luxury home will delight and enchant you. We are just a short drive to both Badger Pass Ski Area and the Yosemite Valley for your ice skating, snow shoeing, and skiing adventures if we have snow in December or for early spring (April). During the summer months, we are located within 20 minutes of the Valley floor and 6miles from the turn off on the 41 to get to Glacier Point.

The benefits of staying at our home inside Yosemite National Park are many. By actually being inside the National Park gates, you avoid the long lines going in and out of the entrance stations. At peak season, this can be an hour or more wait time just to enter the park. This allows you to experience leisurely mornings enjoying the peace and solitude of our quiet community before taking off to see the many attractions in the park.

After a day of soaking up the wonders of Yosemite, our home is only a short drive out of the crowded valley where you will return and enjoy the evening in the great lounge taking in the sunset through our picture windows while relaxing in our comfortable and cozy furniture. Weather permitting, enjoy the grand deck while observing birds and wildlife such as coyotes, squirrels, black bears and deer. Sit back and relax while watching the sunset turn to a glorious star-filled sky. Find the constellations and count the shooting stars. This is a place away from the crowded Yosemite Valley floor, a place for evening relaxation. Sit back and enjoy the wind whispering through the cedars, pines and dogwoods.

While campers in the valley experience the haze and smog of hundreds of campfires, you will marvel at the clear night skies while listening to the sounds of the forest from the large decks! You will love our starry nights and pine scented mornings at Yosemite Peregrine Lodge. This is a clean, well maintained home that offers the ideal home base for your Yosemite experience. Views, mature pines and peace. Please, no smoking, no pets.

Vonnie, owner and manager, is onsite about 50% of the time. She has a studio space in the back area of the home separate from what is rented to our guests. She will be as available as much as you want her to be for suggestions for your Yosemite adventures, should there be any needs inside the house, for filling you in on the history of the lodge and Yosemite. But she will also never intrude on your space and stay. This is your home away from home!

Attractions and distances

The distance from Yosemite West to famous landmarks are: Badger Pass Ski Area 6.5 miles (10,5 km), Tunnel View 8.3 miles (13,4 km), Bridalveil Falls 9.8 miles (15,8 km), Wawona Hotel 12.4 miles (20 km), Ahwahnee Hotel 15.9 miles (25,6 km), Glacier Point 16.2 miles (26 km) and El Portal 21.7 miles (35 km).

Our Home

The Yosemite Peregrine Lodge is a multi-level 3200 square foot home suitable for couples, families and executive retreats. Unusual for most homes in the Yosemite West community, the Peregrine Lodge is situated on a rather level area. This means you do not have to negotiate the steep stairs that earmark many houses.

Entering the home through a door on the same level as the parking, you will find easy access for the unloading of your luggage. There you will find entry to three guest bedrooms.

Sleeping Accommodations

Each bedroom has both interior and exterior entries. They each have their own sink and shower, entry to their own private deck area, and a unique and beautiful floor to ceiling fireplace. As an added benefit of the bedrooms being situated on the first level, you will experience privacy from the activity of the upper floor with the great room, dining room, kitchen and loft.

This separation and intimate setting makes this home uniquely suited for multiple couples, families or groups to have a space of their own. The unique and cozy rooms are thematic in nature.

Living Area

The main floor features a living room with a floor to ceiling rock fireplace with a design of Yosemite Falls. The plush and comfortable furniture in the great room will embrace you after a long day of exploring the park.

Huge soaring windows in the great room opening west affords views of the forest and evening sunsets.

A pool table, puzzles and games, satellite TV, DVD players and WIFI. This is an ideal home for those who are seeking upscale luxurious accommodations for family, friends, coworkers or groups.


We provide access to laundry, washing machine and 2 dryers. There is also laundry detergent and dryer sheets. However, if you have a favorite laundry detergent or have skin sensitivities, please do bring your own. We are on a community well and are asked to please conserve water usage. Please, no boots or shoes in the washer or dryers. Thanks!


Internet availability

There is WiFi offered at the lodge. We use StarLink which has proven to be such a great advantage being in this remote location. We had such issues in the past with satellite dish and past technologies due to our home being at 6,000 feet elevation and surrounded by tall sugar pines and cedar trees which made it difficult to receive clear signals. We now have unlimited access to the internet. At times, it may be slower than what you might be used to in the big cities or urban areas, but has really been dependable.

Verizon is the only cell phone carrier that works in Yosemite West. You will be able to find full coverage for other phone carries plus Wi-Fi Internet in the various hotels and lounges in Yosemite Valley, just a short drive from our location.

    The house was really nice. Both modern and a little rustic. The kitchen was well stocked with appliances and utensils. Each bedroom has its own bath and fireplace. All constructed with a lot of wood that gives it a cabin feel. And Vonnie was extremely helpful and always available with info and answers to our questions. We had a great vacation staying there.

    Peregrine Lodge was everything the top reviews indicated and more. My communication with Vonnie and Michael was easy, prompt, and thorough, which is reassuring when going to an unfamiliar location. The lodge itself is beautiful and well appointed. Every possible need has been addressed. The kitchen had every cooking tool imaginable and provided cabinets for shelf stable food brought in. There were storage containers for leftovers, baggies, foil, napkins, etc. as well as basic seasonings and oils. We greatly appreciated being able to bring suitcases in on the ground level since that is where the lovely bedrooms, each with its own private bathroom, are located. Upstairs are the living areas with a third level for pool table and study. The four seniors in our party had more space than we could use, but it was great for accommodating different sleeping/waking schedules. We spent a lot of time on the front deck which had great seating options. One suggestion for those planning to rent. Make sure to print off or screenshot Vonnie’s directions to the Lodge. Our GPS did fine until the last steps where it directed us to go straight instead of the slight left to the circle. Vonnie’s clear directions got us there!!Definitely a 5 star find!!!

    The house is absolutely amazing! We had a group of 8 and we fit perfectly. We did all our own cooking and I can't say enough how amazing the kitchen was to work in, there is literally everything I could ever need in that kitchen. It was super organized and easy to clean up afterword too.The beds are comfortable and the deck is the perfect place to relax after a long day of hiking. My teenager loved the game room/loft area and claimed it as his own area which was really nice for him to have his own semi-private space.The location speaks for itself, we would be from the driveway to parking in Yosemite Valley in 30 minutes no problem. The drive from most of the areas in the park is super easy and my whole group kept talking about how brilliant we were to stay in Yosemite West. It is totally worth it!!Vonnie is a wonderful host and answered any questions promptly and was an absolute delight to meet and rent from. Easily among the best hosts I've ever had!Last thing, the WiFi was killer, we had really terrible coverage anywhere in the park so it was really nice to be able to look things up or just catch up on things while at the house. It was super nice to have!

    Vonnie is the best host and the Peregrine Lodge has absolutely everything a guest could want. It is inside the park entrance, so you don’t have to wait in a line at the gate and is about a 30 minute drive to Yosemite Valley. We were a family of seven adults and the accommodations were perfect for our group. The kitchen is well stocked for cooking and there are plenty of supplies (games, DVD, pool table) for days at the Lodge. But the real gem at this property was our host, Vonnie. She was attentive to our every need and helped us plan the best days in Yosemite. She knows so much about the park! She suggested a picnic on Tenaya Lake to avoid the crowds in the Valley (and the Lodge has a cooler available to use!) and this was one of our favorite days. She also helped us find great trails for our days in the Valley. This is definitely the best lodge in Yosemite West. Thanks, Vonnie!

    We enjoyed our stay so much. The house was perfect in so many ways for our family (grandparents, son and daughter-in-law, and our 10, 7, and 3 year old grandchildren). We picked up groceries in Oakhurst prior to our arrival.. The kitchen has everything you need to make/serve meals. We enjoyed home cooked breakfasts at the inside large dining table, packed lunches for our noon meals, and ate our evening meals outside on the large patio table on the deck. Everyone had their own comfy bed and there were bathrooms in each bedroom with the availability of a shower. There was a hot tub in one of the bedrooms too. The kids especially loved the assortment of books and dvds, and the upstairs pool table was definitely a huge hit. This is the place to stay! You avoid the long wait at the entrance gate as you already have access to the park- a huge plus. Vonnie, our host, was so warm, gracious and welcoming. Her thoughtful touches such as welcome snacks, shampoo/conditioner, facial soap, body wash, bandaids, coolers, baggies, quality kleenex, etc etc made you feel cared for. She shared recommendations of different adventures to take, and we are so glad we took her advise as she was spot on! Sunsets are gorgeous from the deck of this lovely ‘home away from home’ and we certainly enjoyed sharing one with our new friend! XXOO from our grands and thank you for sharing your little piece of heaven with us:-)

    We are so happy to have selected this home for our stay with our visiting relatives from Germany. We were a party of 7 (including two kids). The place worked perfectly for us all. After a trip from LA to Monterey to SF to Mendocino, this was the last stop and we really felt like it was the grand finale to a wonderful summer vacation for us all. The location was especially nice because of its proximity to the Yosemite attractions but far enough away to feel like a true getaway. We visited during a heat wave and the house location is a higher elevation from Yosemite Valley which also added to the comfort. I can't think of a single thing I would ask her to do differently. Thank you, Vonnie, for your warm welcome and superb communication. We will be back!

    We were a family of six; grandpa, grandma, daughter, son-in-law and grandchildren ages eight and four. Everyone loved the property. It was clean, well furnished, and very roomy. The cooks thought the kitchen was fabulous. The grandkids loved the pool table. Everyone was thrilled to see a mamma bear and her cub walk by one morning. It was great to be staying in the park. The location was convenient to the Central Valley, Mariposa Grove and Tuolumne Meadows. Everyone's favorite hike was the Two Bridges hike along the Lyell Fork in Tuolumne. We swam in the creek and the kids slid down a small waterfall.

    The Peregrine Lodge is the perfect home to stay in within Yosemite National Park! It was our first time to Yosemite so we couldn’t really appreciate the proximity to the Valley and other sites within the park until we were in our car driving to them each morning. We were so thankful to have booked with Vonnie! The home is the most well equipped, clean VRBO that we have stayed at. The sunsets and stargazing at night made for an even more magical vacation in Yosemite! Thank you Vonnie for sharing your home. We hope to visit again in the future!!

    We spent 5 nights here and loved the location. It was wonderful to be in the park and not have to fight the lines getting in every day. Beds were comfy. Each bedroom has its own air conditioning so if some people want it cooler they can make their own adjustment. Great kitchen - well stocked - huge fridge. We loved the pool table and the huge selection of dvds and books. Our only wish would have been for some extra washcloths and towels since the house doesn’t have a washer and dryer but definitely not a deal breaker. I would stay here again if we visit Yosemite in the future.
