Bass Lake-On the water!*Dock*high speed WiFi
The drive was beautiful and the house was easy to find. PLENTY of parking. Easy and convenient check in. The house was spacious and so comfortable. The game room was a plus. The laundry room awesome. The beds are so comfortable and PLENTY of space for my big family. The children absolutely love the game room. Bathrooms PLENTY. The backyard was a dream. Absolutely beautiful. The stairs to the dock were great. The dock was so much fun. My children went swimming even in the rain. The water was great. If you love fishing, there was plenty of fishes to catch. Location felt so private making it even more fun for music, dancing and karaoke outdoors. The backyard little bar near the dock was a bonus to hang out and watch the kids swim in the lake. I will definitely come back! You will not be disappointed with the house and it’s plenty of amenities and fun. Hiking trails 7 minutes away was awesome. Waterfalls were great. I love it!

Only 19 miles from Yosemite, 1 mile from Bass Lake
Daniel was extremely flexible and easy to communicate with. The house was beautiful and comfortably fit all 7 of our family members.

Unique Rock House on Redinger Lake
This place is on another level of beauty and privacy. Showed up. Gate was open. The ac was already on. Place was spotless. Ice maker full with ice (huge win!!) Sit on the deck and just take in the best view around. I gotta to hang for a few min at club red. The kayak around the lake was amazing. This is a top notch compound. Incredible the paradise they have built in the middle of nowhere!! Only negative was I had to leave. Thanks Joyce and tony for your hospitality. I will be back!!!

Yosemite Foothill Retreat - Private Guest Suite #3
Great stay…the place is approximately 35/40 minutes away from the south entrance of the Yosemite National Park. It is 12 minutes away from grocery stores and other restaurants. The backyard is amazing and very relaxing. The bathroom has shampoo and liquid soap which is helpful if you forget your own. The bedroom was very accommodating although the bed was too soft for my husband’s back. The kitchen does not have a stove but it has a microwave, toaster, coffee maker and a kettle. Overall our experience was great although most of the time we spent at the national park.

Lakefront Home on Millerton Lake W Solar-Generator
The house is just a beautiful as the pictures. The view of the lake from the decks was incredible. Very comfortable beds and sitting area. There was no cell service for AT&T but the provided wifi was great. Highly recommend.

Little Bear Lodge Lake View.
Charlene was a wonderful host. Responded very quickly if I had any questions. The lake view is by far the best I have had in a home in my many years of staying at bass lake. Very close to the Pines resort, Marina and shops. I am definitely saving and hoping I get to return next summer for vacation.

Bass Lake Retro Escape near Yosemite -*EV Charger*
We loved our stay at Bass Lake! The house was adorable! Decorated and maintained meticulously, we felt like we took a joyful escape back in time! The decor and fixtures were obviously well thought out, from the retro coffee pot and toaster to the frame TV. Melissa was very helpful and prompt and gave us great recommendations of the “must do/see”places in Yosemite during our short time there. 10/10! Loved it!

Bass Lake| Boat Slip | Outdoor Kitchen | Game Room

Ridgeview Retreat - AC + Location!
Jamie’s place was great! Walkable to the nearby restaurants and shops. Highly recommend the Hungry Hut for their burgers and milkshakes! Jamie’s place fit 12 of us comfortably. Kitchen was filled with everything needed to cook all weekend long. We took the kids mainly for snow fun. There were two Sno-Parks about 20mins away, but the scenery is so beautiful that trip feels shorter! We brought our own sleds for the kids, also highly recommend. There is also China Peak about 30mins away where kids were able to take snowboarding lessons.

Modern 4BR | Playground | Terrace
We had an amazing stay! The cabin was beautiful, clean, and comfortable. It was also stocked with everything we needed. Would definitely stay here again!

Cozy 4 bedroom cabin with a game room east village
I had a great stay with my family. The house was great and the game room kept my kids entertained for hours. The house is a 15 minutes walk to Shaver Lake, which is very easy. The only thing to keep in mind is that the two bedrooms in the loft are in a seporate building than the rest of the house.

Bear Cave- Pet Friendly Suite in Shaver Lake
A charming and cozy private studio! It felt warm and welcoming, just like home. The setup was well thought out, and the bed was very comfortable. The host provided great local recommendations during our stay. Would definitely book again!

Creekside Cabin *Pup-Friendly with AC*
10 out of 10! This place was amazing, from cleanliness, stuff to do, great views, stocked kitchen, comfortable beds, family friendly living space, it had it all. My family had a great Christmas vacation here and we are already looking at coming back over summer.

The Great Escape - AC* + Hot Tub
This place is phenomenal. Stunning views, an amazingly stocked kitchen/bathrooms/bedrooms, a hot tub & fireplace, games, an Apple TV, beautifully decorated, a dedicated garage, and all at a very reasonable price point. I highly recommend! My group and I had a fantastic stay.

Private A/C Playset Zip-Line Huge Deck Firepit
We had a wonderful weekend at this beautiful mountain home. The house is spacious, incredibly comfortable, and had everything we needed for our family getaway. It snowed so we got to enjoy all the indoor activities and cozy fireplace. The location was peaceful and picturesque.

Stargazer at Shaver Lake
We had a wonderful stay at this house for our family vacation together. We wanted a place to relax, play cards and enjoy coffee on the deck in the morning and this house did all that for us. It was well stocked in the kitchen and had everything we needed. We all enjoyed playing air hockey and all the games they had in the garage. We all agreed we would be happy to stay here again. Thank You

Shanks' Ponderosa House w/ EV Charger and Hot Tub
Tchukon and Carolyn’s home was great! We were a group of 7 and the space fit us all well. Extremely clean, I think the cleanest Airbnb I’ve ever stayed in. The hosts were responsive and included lots of helpful information for the house. Backyard is wonderful, and we all really enjoyed the hot tub, especially at sunset. Would absolutely recommend staying here.

3 Acres on Miami Creek 20 Miles to Yosemite
We had a great tenth anniversary celebration and were able to spend a few days at Yosemite. On the last night we dined at Idle Hour which we recommend for their wine tasting and their food. Robert provided the perfect place for our second honeymoon. It was very relaxing and close to stores and food establishments as well as hiking and natural beauty. It is a wonderful cabin tucked into the woods.

Best views in town. Hot tub. Pool table. Firepit.
we stayed here as we planned to hike half dome. Pimmy and Jason are amazing hosts, and their home is just perfect with an amazing sunset view. its a 20mins drive to park entrance 90 drive from theirs to the half dome trailhead. will be checking back in for availability at this place when we come back to Yosemite.

It's a beautiful, spacious home. Hard to imagine a better setup for a large group. The place was clean, well stocked with cookware/towels/etc and Nina was responsive to messages.

Breathtaking Views Boho Chic Oasis by Casa Oso
We had such a perfect stay at Maja’s home! The view is incredible, and the various decorations around the place give it a very cozy vibe. There’s plenty of space and things to do that we never felt bored. On top of this, Maja is very kind and clearly communicated everything our group needed to know. Definitely hoping to return here someday!

Your guide to Shaver Lake
Introduction
Tucked in the majestic Sierra Nevada Mountains, the tiny former logging town of Shaver Lake is a hidden gem with an expansive lake ringed by thick pine forests and cabins. While the refreshing waters are what draw many up the mountainside, there’s plenty of fun to be had on dry land in the Sierra Nevadas, where hundreds of miles of trails provide ideal opportunities for hiking, mountain biking, and horseback riding. Located a 90-minute drive south from storied Yosemite National Park, Shaver Lake can also serve as your serene base for an ambitious day trip or a chill spot to recover in after visiting one of the nation’s most trafficked parks.
The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Shaver Lake
June through September are your best bet for warm weather if you’re planning on a lake vacation, with temperatures in the mid-70s and low 80s Fahrenheit. July and August are usually the hottest months, but not too hot — temperatures spike into the 80s — and thanks to the mountain elevation, spring is cool and winter chilly. The mountain climate means evenings can be brisk year round, so pack layers.
Top things to do in Shaver Lake
Shaver Lake
The Southern Edison Company dammed up several streams in 1927 to create Shaver Lake in order to generate electricity for Los Angeles, but it is thousands of miles from the bustling industry it powers — both literally and figuratively. The lake offers 22 miles of tranquil, boulder-studded shoreline and over 2,000 acres of placid lake surface. The Shaver Lake Marina caters to all of your aquatic whims, renting out 12-passenger pontoon boats, jet skis, paddleboards, and more. It also runs a small general store where you can stock up on sunscreen and snacks. If you like to fish, try your luck at hooking a rainbow trout or smallmouth bass, just two of the species you’ll find flitting around the lake.
McKinley Grove
You’ll be glad you took a break from swimming once you’re inside this small, secluded grove of giant sequoias, located about half an hour’s drive from the lake. Giant sequoias — which can grow to over 300 feet tall and live thousands of years — are the biggest trees on Earth and only grow naturally in the Sierra Nevadas. While these staggering giants are the main draw, in fall the dogwood trees also put on show, turning a brilliant red. Plunk down at a picnic table and lunch in the shade of these leviathans, or just hike the trails, staring up in wonder.
Central Sierra Historical Society Museum
On the grounds of this partially open-air museum you can find all kinds of contraptions that once powered the logging communities of the Sierra Nevadas, including something called a steam donkey, built in 1902, which was a kind of portable engine used to move logs. You’ll also find a 1912 railroad caboose, a Mack Truck built in 1920, and a replica flume tender’s cabin — a modest home built along the river for men whose job it was to keep lumber moving smoothly downstream to the sawmill.
