About this property

Set on 20 secluded acres, this property is the perfect place to relax. There are great views of the mountains and you can watch the waterbirds on the pond. There is plenty of space for the kids to play outside on the swings set or soccer field. There is a ping pong table and a fuse ball table for more entertainment. The 5000 sq foot house has a formal living room, a kids play room, and a sitting room in the Master Complex. Plenty of room to spread out if you want. The living/kitchen area is large enough for the whole group to hang out as well. We are 8 minutes from Bass Lake and about 35 minutes from the south gate of Yosemite. There are many local hiking trails, rivers and lakes to explore, and high altitude adventure all around.

Perfect family getaway destination!!!

I can’t say enough about how much I love this home. It’s perfect for family gatherings or just large groups. From ping pong to corn-hole the entertainments endless! The kitchen space is ideal with a lots of counter space and the whole house is very clean. Everything seems very new. My kids and I really enjoyed their pond that we went fishing in. There’s a play structure and a well kept lawn. I enjoyed my time on a hammock underneath the tree where I spent time reading. This was definitely a peaceful destination, the master bathroom alone makes you feel like you’re at a spa. Another perk Is Yosemite is only 45 minutes away. Love this home in the mountains…

WOW…AMAZING AND BEAUTIFUL

For anyone searching for the most authentic outdoor, luxury mountain experience….THIS IS IT! Close to Yosemite National Park and Bass Lake, this is an amazing home with majestic mountain terrain and views. Loved the private pond to fish and kayak. BBQ and patio area overlooking the pond could accommodate a large group for parties to relax, have drinks, and enjoy the sun sets. This home is updated, spacious, and great for entertainment. Took advantage of the large grass area for a game of soccer with the family. Took to the trails around the property to just enjoy nature. This is a beautiful home and would recommend to all family travelers or large groups looking for a private mountain oasis. HOUSE: Clean and updated, rooms are large with plenty of room for entertaining. It was pleasant to sip wine in the large kitchen, and then head out to the patio and sit, take in fresh mountain air, and relax. Beds were comfortable and place was clean and welcoming. The Master bedroom is beautiful. This was a wonderful experience…..we will be back! Thank you.

Amazing!

The home is welcoming. The grounds were very open lots of room for a BBQ and lots of outdoor furniture to just sit and enjoy the views. There is a pond, play area for little ones and lots of trails for an early morning jog or just a walk in the woods. Inside the home is clean and fresh smelling. The hostess thought of everything you can think of. All the rooms were elegantly staged, yet comfortable and welcoming. The master bedroom, well you just have to see for yourselves. The family room was huge with plenty of room for everyone to come together at the end of the day. We will be back, you can count on that. Thank you

A spa in the mountains.

We absolutely loved staying at The Refuge! The beds are amazing and the sheets very soft. They even had Cozy Earth sheets in the master! The host was attentive and provided us with a wine and chocolate basket. We felt right at home. There’s a game room for kids to go get loud and crazy while I had a "spa day" in the master bedroom-didn’t hear my kids at all!! I could have stayed all three days in the master suite. OUr family enjoyed spending evenings in the courtyard playing ping pong and spent one day playing volleyball and croquet on the field. The kitchen is well appointed with everything (and more) than you need. So much space to spread out; every room had their own smart TV AND thermostat (so I could be at 68 degrees while grandma was at 74 degrees). We loved watching the wildlife fly over the pond while we sipped our morning lattes on the back patio. Walks around the pond were lovely. We traveled to Yosemite one day and enjoyed Bass Lake the next. Miller’s landing is just less than ten minutes away so we rented a boat and ate out all day!! We will book again with extended family now that we know how wonderful this location would be for a birthday party!!
