Treat yourself to a true vacation in this stunning three-story custom log home located on over two acres of abundant pine and cedar trees, providing a feeling of privacy and being in the forest, yet very close to downtown Groveland and only 26 miles from Yosemite National Park Entrance! As soon as you step foot inside, you will fall in love with the beautiful central great room perfect for dining and relaxing featuring hardwood flooring, cathedral ceilings, granite countertops, skylights, and a spacious living area that is highlighted by a beautiful faux rock fireplace and large view windows. Let the chef of the group loose in the fully-equipped kitchen boasting a large island, a gas range/oven, a microwave, a built-in wine cooler, and a dual basin sink. Everyone will love gathering in the large dining area with dual glass slider access to wonderful views and a spacious deck. Speaking of the deck, there is no better place to girl up a few burgers and kick back as the sun dips behind the treetops.

When it is time to hit the hay, each of the five bedrooms has its own private full baths, so each guest can have their own privacy and comfort. The large main-level bedroom has a great walk-in rock-walled shower, antique-style pine-wood tub, and a private commode room. The upstairs bedrooms have two queen beds and a bunk bed. The two downstairs guest rooms feature garden views and a private entry. The large wraparound redwood deck is on the main level. There is also a children's play structure available.

Amazing place for a family union

This property is well maintained and is the perfect home for a large family gathering. We were 20 adults for the long weekend and had plenty of space for all of us. The kitchen was well stocked, there was wood supplied for the fireplace, well stocked with towels (more than we need) and toilet supplies.

Wonderful log cabin near Yosemite

We were looking for a place to unwind and relax near Yosemite - the Cub Inn was perfect for us. Nestled between pine trees up a small hill, it’s private, has a lot of space and all the amenities for a family vacation. Would definitely go back again!

Great House for a Big Group!

This house was perfect for our large group! The space was clean and comfortable, with plenty of room for everyone. We loved that the kitchen was well-stocked with cookware and utensils, and the bathrooms were well-supplied. Groveland is a charming town, and the house is conveniently located for exploring Yosemite. While we missed having access to Pine Mountain Lake, we found another nearby lake to rent boats for a fun day on the water. Overall, we had a fantastic stay!

Nice House for Family Reunion

We had a great time at this house for 5 nights. Loved the log cabin construction, and the decor was very appropriate for the house. There is a bathroom for every bedroom (6), which was very nice for our family of 22. We loved the large outdoor deck. It was a fantastic gathering place both mornings and evenings. The location in Groveland was perfect for trips to Yosemite, Lake Don Pedro, and other local river swimming holes. The kitchen had everything we needed (a second refrigerator would have been nice). The grand kids really enjoyed the playground outside and the toys and games in the house. There were a couple of small maintenance issues our first morning that VaCasa took care of right away. They warn you about the steep driveway, and they are not kidding. Getting my boat up the driveway and turned around was not easy. Approach the property from the east for the easiest approach for trailers. Overall, we would definitely stay there again.

Cozy Home

Such a lovely home to spend a family getaway in. The home is well equipped and nicely set up for large gatherings. The home has such a cozy vibe and we left with such a nice feeling of having spent the weekend at the home. Even though the home was up in the woods, it was well maintainted.

Awesome cabin!

This home was so spacious! The AC worked great, laundry offered two sets washer/dryer for a crowd, spacious kitchen, bed and bathrooms. We did deal with an ant issue in kitchen area and feel with the size of this property, a larger stove/oven would be ideal as you will be more than likely cooking for a crowd. Property manager was quick to respond to a few questions we had.

In Need of a DEEP CLEANING! Dirty and unsantitary.

When we arrived 3 of us spent 20 minutes cleaning out rodent droppings from shelving in the kitchen pantry. Some were old and crusty, but mostly recent. For the next 2 nights as we ate dinner mice were visible scampering on floor in kitchen and darting in and out along cabinets and base of refrigerator. We were careful not to leave food out, but when we returned after a day in the Park the kitchen countertops were crawling with thousands of ants. We made an emergency trip to the store for a can of Raid insect spray and used it twice daily along back splash and base boards. Floors in every room were dirty and cobwebs in corners. This is not just rustic cabin in the forest conditions, but highly unsanitary. We were given 2 different sets of Network/Wifi information and codes. Neither worked. After an hour of texting with the local rep another man called and gave us latest log-in information. One of our children managed to lock an upstairs bedroom door. (Our fault) But it was a key lock and we were locked out with no key. At 8:45 p.m. we tried to contact the local rep about a key, but received a prerecorded text telling us to to call the Vacasa national 800 phone number. We finally managed to jimmy the lock open with a table knife and a small screw driver from our car. Drawer fronts in kitchen were missing screws and hanging. Yosemite was fantastic, and when new this home was probably great. But the lack of maintenance and regular serious cleaning has greatly deteriorated property.

Terrible Experience

There was no working A/C and we were not notified before our arrival. Vacasa was well aware that the A/C was not working in the home and never reached out to us to let us know. The home was 89 degrees during the day. I called Vacasa and local management to help us and there was very little response. They offered us a refund of 25.00 per day to make up for not having A/C. What a joke. They do not have Bear Proof Trash cans. Bears got into the trash and they did nothing about this as well. We spent the rest of our trip staring at garbage that was strewn all over the lawn. Disgusting. HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE I WILL NEVER RENT FROM VACASA AGAIN.

Nice home but…

We stayed at the Cub Inn in July, 2022. The house was a former B&B so it had plenty of room for our party of 14. The layout was great and we loved the deck off the living room area. The house was dated a bit and was superficially cleaned, but that’s to be expected in a rental. The unacceptable issue however was the AC, or lack thereof. This is July so daytime temps were in the upper 90’s. When we arrived on Saturday, the AC wasn’t working. We called and the earliest they said someone could come out was Monday. Meanwhile, it’s 92 in the house. We escalated to Vacasa to no avail. We bought fans and some of our guests slept outside on the deck. On Monday, the HVAC person arrived and said the owner knew the unit wasn’t working because the motor was bad so they cut off electric to the compressor. He replaced the motor but said the unit is under sized for the house. The AC did work from that point on however the house never got cooler than 80 degrees. The most frustrating thing is we felt we were deceived by the owner given they knew, before we arrived, the AC didn’t work. Vacasa said they would credit us 2 nights stay but despite repeated follow-ups, we were ghosted after our trip.

Disappointed.

We were shocked by the unacceptable state of the home when we arrived at the check in time—the house was not properly cleaned, there were bags of garbage left in the common areas (causing ants in the kitchen), and the beds had sheets stripped off with dirty sheets on the floor. The air conditioning was also not functioning properly in 90+ degree F heat. After multiple calls to Vacasa, we were first informed that housekeeping would be there the first night. However, housekeeping never came out to clean and the AC was never fixed. As a result, our group of 20 people had to complete the housekeeping ourselves and go out to buy cleaning supplies, garbage bags, and electric fans to try and cool the house down. Our stay was only for two nights, and our group had to spend precious time that could have been spent together figuring out how to fix the state of the vacation rental. Despite this poor experience, we only received a refund for the housekeeping fee and a small refund for the cleaning supplies we purchased. We are disappointed with our experience for the mess we encountered but also for the utter lack of responsiveness on Vacasa's part.

Excellent for large groups

Fabulous stay at this home. We had 16 people in this home with plenty of room. 2 rooms on bottom floor, 2 rooms on main floor, and 2 rooms upstairs with multiple beds that are perfect for kids. The BBQ grill worked well, and there was plenty of wood for the fireplace. Yard has a play structure for little ones. Everyday we say deer and turkeys from the large deck. 1 of the deer was an albino, which the kids thought looked like a unicorn. Overall, very pleased with this rental. Thank you.

Great place for a crowd

We had an amazing time at The Cub Inn! We were a friend group of 14, with some couples in the mix. There was plenty of space for all of us, as long as you don't mind sharing a room! The place was beautiful, clean, and we'll-maintained. The house was stocked to a point that it felt more like a home than a rental property. We were more than satisfied with our stay, and hope to be back again!
