Great Location. Property needs updating

The location of this unit is wonderful. Unfortunately it seems that the care of the unit has not had much attention. It is very dated and very worn. The kitchen cabinets are metal and somewhat rusted and the drawers do not open very well. For the amount of money that you spend to stay here I would think these amenities should be in better working order. The furniture is worn and there is a smoky smell within the unit. Great deck with a nice meadow next door. Good hike right outside the door.

Soak in the beauty of Yosemite

Property is right next to an open meadow with a beautiful porch. Indoors is well decorated and comfortable. Bring your own shampoo and body wash for the shower though. The cabin is in a lovely community and is about an hour from Yosemite valley via car. There are some great trails and a historical museum about Wawona near the property as well.

Great place to stay

Had a great time at this cabin. Its a really good spot as there is a giant field with all kinds of animals wandering nearby. There is a small store in the area and a slightly bigger store when you enter the area. There was a really cool area down the road that went to the river. Had alot of fun exploring the area. The house itself was good with only two minor exceptions. One was the heater was very squeaky but we are heavy sleepers. The other thing was that the listing said two beds but we only saw one. Im not sure if the two small futons were the second bed or not. Other than that its a really great place to stay.

LOVE WAWONA

The property is in a beautiful area and feels very authentic. We absoltuley loved hanging out on the deck and sitting next to the meadow - so peaceful. It is very clean, but the stains on the carpet make it feel dirty. The pull out sofa is TERRIBLE - I would highly reccomend this property for 2 people but not a family of 4.

Cute little cabin

We really enjoyed out stay. The reason I gave only 4 stars for cleanliness if because the carpet is stained. I guess that's what happens when you allow pets. (which we really appreciate) Everything else, kitchen, bathroom etc. are very clean and the bed is really comfortable.

Good Experience

The cottage was nice and easy to find. There was plenty of dishes and such. The house was clean, but there we're several big stains on the carpet, that made it seem like it wasn't clean. The mattresses were not very comfortable. My 10 yr old slept on the pull out couch and it was absolutely awful. We put the couch cushions under the mattress for her to sleep on because it was completely broke out in the middle. It really needs to be replaced. The house could really use a fan as well for the main area. There was one in the closet, but it was broken. Overall it was a good stay, but simple improvements could be made to make it great.

Great location and value

We enjoyed our stay and found the location to be perfect; better than staying in Yosemite Valley. Very close to the Giant Sequoias! The cottage has most everything you would need. Very peaceful and close to the Wawona swinging bridge.... A short 20 min hike. You can hear the peaceful sound of the South Fork Merced River from the huge deck. As an aside, we accidentally left behind a bag/computer and the housekeeping team was extremely helpful in helping us get it back! Very impressed!!

Great affordable little cabin

Very sweet, old-fashioned cabin. Everything we needed. Very well maintained. It’s a spring-fall cabin so pretty cold in the winter. But lots of wood for the fireplace so that made it comfortable. Well kept and appointed.

It was ok!

It was our first experience in a cabin, everything was fine except two things carpet was really duty, and second I don't understand if we paid for someone to clean it why they ask us to leave everything tidy, it doesn't make sense, but overall experience was a nice one.

Perfect Getaway!

Everything about this stay was very enjoyable! The location was perfect, close to beautiful trails and a lot of privacy. Yosemite park and the surrounding area is one of my now favorite places to visit now. The house was very comfortable, clean, well equipped, and a perfect size! Thank you for a very relaxing and a lovely vacation.

Nice cabin in a great location

As well as being a reasonable driving distance to Yosemite, Heart of the Meadow has nice hiking options accessible right from the front door. It was very fun and relaxing to stay here, and we made some memories that will last a lifetime!

Heart of the Meadow stay

We enjoyed our visit to Yosemite. The cabin kitchen was a bit cramped, but well furnished. The sofa bed is NOT at all comfortable! The queen bed in the bedroom is nice. Office and maintenance staff were friendly and helpful.
