The Knotty Chalet @ Yosemite

KirstyRating, 5 stars2 days ago

We had a fantastic stay! The location was ideal for exploring Yosemite, and every detail had been thoughtfully considered. The outdoor space was beautiful—perfect for relaxing evenings in the jacuzzi or enjoying a BBQ after a day of hiking. The bed was incredibly comfortable, and the peaceful surroundings made it even better. Frances was really helpful and responsive throughout our stay. We already miss it!

Cody's Cozy Cottage

ErikRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago

This place was perfectly advertised as the pictures. It’s definitely cozy. And not in a small way, but in the warm fuzzy feeling way. With big plush blankets provided in the WALK-IN closet and a fireplace to snuggle alongside, this place hits the spot in all the right ways. This cottage made me feel at home with its fully stocked kitchen, closet, and cabinet. The walk-in closet deserves its own picture! It was very spacious. I was glad to see separate thermostats for the bedroom and the living room. Very modern and beautiful cottage in the woods. If there is one downside, it’s that the backyard/patio deck is a bit small. But if you share the next door big house’s backyard, it’s a beautiful scenery with a canopy and big fire pit with comfortable wooden lounge chairs. Most importantly though, the host Kaitlyn helped out in immediate fashion whenever we had questions or concerns. 10 / 10 house 10 / 10 host 8 / 10 location (beautiful but far from park, not their fault) 10 /10 overall

A clean and modern bathroom is shown, featuring a classic white toilet on tiled flooring. The neutral tones of the walls complement the simplicity of the space, contributing to a well-maintained appearance.

Cozy Farmhouse style Home in the Mountains!

CharleneRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago

We had a wonderful stay with our family and visiting relatives! We wanted a place that fit the 10 of us and was close enough for a full day trip to Yosemite. We enjoyed all the great amenities, from playing pool to BBQing. The beds were comfortable, the kitchen is pretty well stocked for cooking, and lots of room for us to hang out in the living room. Fun spot!

JasonRating, 5 starstoday

Great house for a little get away from the city. The house is very secluded and deep into the road. It was quiet and really gave my party a chance to detox and enjoy nature. The house has everything you need to cook a good meal and hang out. It is also pretty close to town where you can do some thrift shopping, get groceries, or get a meal.

LuxeYosemiteRetreat | Spa+Sauna+Lake-Mtn Views

CallaRating, 5 stars6 days ago

After living in CA for the majority of my life, I'm moving out of state this Fall. This summer I made it my goal to find hidden gems and travel around the state a bit before I leave. When I came across the Yosemite Pink Cottage I knew it was a perfect trip for me to book. The cottage was stunning, peaceful, and such a special experience. My sister and I cooked a nice dinner in the beautiful kitchen, enjoyed the record player (I even brought my own vinyls), and loved every second we spent out on the deck (we loved the hot tub and fire pit). The place is decorated so cute - even the small details (such as the bow shaped coasters and the essential oil pillow mist in the bedrooms) made our stay that much more enjoyable. Veronica was very responsive and the entire booking process was smooth and easy. If you're looking for a sign to treat yourself and book the trip - this is it!

Luxury Nature Getaway *StoneHouse* by Casa Oso

AbhilashRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 10/10 – A Magical Stay in Mariposa! We had an absolutely unforgettable 3-night stay at this beautiful home on Triangle Road (House #3580). From the moment we arrived, we were immersed in nature – spotting deer, birds, and other wildlife was a daily delight. The cozy jacuzzi under the cold Mariposa night sky was pure bliss. The house itself is a dream — spacious, immaculately maintained, and stocked with all the essentials. The master bedroom was hands down the highlight, and the beds throughout the home were incredibly comfortable. We spent our evenings enjoying the home theatre, bonding around the warm indoor fireplace, and relaxing near the outdoor fireplace by the lake — it was surreal. And let’s not forget our adorable cat companions, who truly made us feel at home. This place was the perfect blend of comfort, nature, and family time. If we could give it 10 stars, we would. Highly recommended if you are looking for jungle vibes and peace from city life!

A charming historical street scene captures local shops and restaurants set against a backdrop of hills. Trees line the sidewalks, and cars are parked along the street. Brightly colored signage enhances the inviting atmosphere of this gold rush town.
