My family and I had a great time in Yosemite. The cabin was clean and the area was very quiet. It was refreshing to hear the river and wind blowing through the trees.

My family loved the sound of the running river, paddling in the water and hiking through the trees. House was exactly as it was described, perfect for a group of 5. Beautiful view from deck. Questions answered quickly. Definitely would recommend this place to stay. From Wisconsin and England

The cabin was as advertised! It was perfect for our family. We loved the deck and river behind. It was warm, but it really cooled off in the evening. It was very close to Mariposa grove and about 45 50 minutes to the valley. I would recommend this to anyone wanting to experience the beauty of Yosemite!

Out family loved staying in this cabin. It was very clean and had everything we needed. The kids loved the jumping rock just outside the cabin, and we loved having a grocery store within walking distance!

Great stay! Beautiful location

Loved our stay! It was perfect for our family and exactly what we were looking for. The views were beautiful, and the kids loved playing in the river (and jumping rock!) behind the house. It was the perfect thing to do after hiking during the day, that was both fun and low key. Kip was also very responsive and helpful with the communication. Highly recommend!

Amazing place!

We had a great stay. The place is amazing, so quaint, right on the river and less than an hour from the valley. It exceeded our expectations all the way around. Very relaxing! We had everything we needed for our extended family of five to cook meals in and relax. Great hikes nearby!

Redwood cottages in Yosemite

The cabin was neat and cozy and the kitchen was well equipped. We spent little time in the cabin because we preferred to be outdoors. It was wonderful going to sleep to the sound of the rushing river. Yosemite is an awesome park with amazing hikes and views.Kip was very responsive to questions we had.It takes about 40 minutes to get to the center of the park but it’s a much shorter time to Glacier point and Mariposa Grove.

Beautiful location, peaceful, quiet and close to the South fork of the Merced River. Cabin was super nice and clean. The back deck was used a lot with a gorgeous view of the river. Everything went smooth with booking and check out.

Well equipped cabin

We were familiar with the area, and were fortunate to have great weather for March. Wawona is peaceful compared to Yosemite Valley. Since we knew that we brought all of own food along, otherwise it’s a distance to a restaurant. The kitchen is well equipped for food preparation. This is a lovely property for a family/friends gathering.
