No hot water

We had no hot water during our 2 day stay. Anita knew this for a few days before we arrived given the previous guest review, yet we felt she did not take this with due diligence. A plumber supposedly came the second afternoon (we saw no sign of this, just Anita's word after we had checked out) but couldn't fix it. All we were given as compensation was a $100 refund. On the positive side, we were allowed to check in early and the house was comfortable apart from the lack of hot water. The weather was warm, but the swamp cooler did help.

Good for a family trip to Yosemite

This property was perfect for our family visit to Yosemite. There were some hiccups with the house but Anita was very communicative and we were able to resolve things quickly. The town of Groveland was really cute but be warned that this property is set a 5-10 minute drive past the entrance to the community so read the driving instructions carefully! Property had everything we needed including strong AC, a well-equipped kitchen, and fun game room. It was a bit outdated but met our needs and there were even nice touches due to COVID like single use toiletries in all of the bathrooms.

No hot water

The house was as listed and if you plan to utilize the lake close by this would be good for you. However we booked it because it showed it was close to Yosemite, which it’s actually over an hour. This is of course nothing to do with the property but if you plan to go to the park know it’s not close. When we got to house after a long hot day of hiking we walked inside of the house and it was SO HOT!!! All of us started sweating. I messaged the homeowner and she said she was t going to leave the air on and it wasn’t hot when her husband left a few hours before! This is IMPOSSIBLE it was at least 100 degrees in there. Then we when to go take a shower no hot water…. It was freezing so this didn’t make everyone happy. I messaged and got no response. The next evening still no hot water! It was freezing. I was then told I was rude because I had an issue with the house being so hot. I understand not leaving the air on all the time but when your husband was there at 3pm according to her and you knew we were coming why wouldn’t you turn it on?! We would have left Saturday but because it was a holiday weekend we couldn’t find anything until Monday night. I would definitely ask for them to please turn on air before you arrive and to make sure there is hot water.

First Yosemite Trip

We had a great time staying at the house. We did have some fall outs like our window blinds breaking and having to use our blanket as a window covering for the entire stay. The swamp cooler along with the portable AC unit did work for the heat. The owners were great with responding to our needs.

Relax

Booking was a breeze! Anita was exceptionally responsive with my tons of questions, she accommodated my early check in request and permitted my choice of TV channel (Disney+) Anyways don’t do what we did and just type the address in your maps, read the instructions Anita provides, lol. Pine Mountain Lake is huge and the grounds are gorgeous, we came in June (102 degrees) so it was scorching. Upon entering our home address, it’s easy to miss because the house drops from the street. Entering the driveway felt like a roller coaster, it’s steep so be careful. We drove our F150 so backing out we burned a little rubber the first time after that my husband was a natural. Anyways, we arrived around 2pm and nobody had been there prior meaning no AC had been left on to cool the place down. We walked into a heat box, we immediately turned on the cooling unit and we eventually felt some relief. Such an awesome house, the kids found stairs to the game room and disappeared. I was happy with the space and so grateful for the gorgeous views. Anita provided a binder packed with visitor information which I found super helpful. I have zero complaints we all enjoyed ourselves in house and especially around the area. My only gripe is the pool table, natural wear and tear causes the pool table to tilt, where balls eventually travel to one side. Certain shots were impossible to shoot because of placement in the room. But we totally made it work and played ourselves out with the loads of entertainment provided. Once again my family had a blast!

Great house, but no Air conditioning

House was wonderful, BUT do not stay here if your expecting A/C during hot summer days , we don’t live to far from Groveland so we know it gets really hot during the summers! The listing thru the VRBO app states A/C and no where does it say “Swamp Cooler” although the owner when asked about this did provide a screenshot from I don’t know where, myself and other people we stayed with also checked & it was not in the listing. Either way the house was nice, with a swamp cooler maybe consider more than 2 fans or ceiling fans if you have 3 bedrooms and a downstairs den! There was lots of games, movies, and plenty of activities provided. Other than being miserable from the heat it was a nice place.

Nice house

After a long hike at Yosemite, we arrived tired and hungry to our rental and was surprised by dog messes. I quickly texted the owner and she was great with communicating her concerns and solutions. The previous renter came back after an evacuation to gather her things and allowed her dogs to trampled mud and defecated all over the carpets. It was horrifying but you have to make lemonade out of lemons. We spent 2-3 hrs cleaning it up and Anita refunded us most of our cleaning fee. Aside from that, everything was great! There are ample floating toys and the kitchen was well stocked for us to utilize. We had an amazing time and would definitely consider coming back to the same house when we get the chance to.

Perfect stay!!

The owners were amazing!! Communication was easy and always quick to respond to any questions. They were flexible and great. The lake was such a quick drive it was a perfect location for our group who had 5 adults and 9 kids with various sleeping schedules. The lake temp was perfect and relaxing and a beautiful view. The house itself was big enough to accommodate everyone!! The downstairs where we had all 9 kids was so perfect. Everyone had their spot, they had their own tv to watch a show and games that kept the kids entertained while the adults were able to be upstairs. The deck view was amazing. We arrived and immediately saw deer on the property which was a good sign to start the trip. It was close to Yosemite and we had a fun day doing the jr ranger station and swimming in the creek there. The driveway as other people have stated is surprisingly steep BUT we were able to figure it out. Backing into the driveway and then it was kind of fun. If there is one thing I would say negative is this isn’t a location to take pets. We thought about bringing my dog (my baby) but glad we didn’t. Not really a place that I felt would be secure for my dog and dogs are not allowed at the lake location and even Yosemite had some restrictions on dogs. They allow a pet at this property but I would say since a pet would not be familiar with location a care would be highly recommended. Overall such a good trip. Perfect house. Had everything we wanted. Thanks for helping us have an amazing adventure and memories.

Great find - perfect little lake

This house was ideal for our family of 2 young boys a Grandmother and a dog. The driveway is definitely not for the faint of heart, but the house is spacious, well stocked and very comfortable. Anita was very responsive and helpful with all our little questions and we had a great stay at Pine Mountain Lake. We would definitely stay in this house again. The proximity to the nearest beach, dog park, and Yosemite was a huge plus.

Our family enjoyed our trip to Groveland and Yosemite

This was our first ever trip to Yosemite. We wanted to stay as close to Yosemite entrance as possible, and Groveland was just right. We were a family of 8, 2 adults and 6 teenagers. The house accommodated all of us. The downstairs was perfect, with the pool table and air hockey, the teens really enjoyed that. There were many board games to play, which we took advantage of. The house itself was not as clean as it should have been. I did contact the owner about it, and she responded immediately. Some things were not up to par, but all in all, the house and location suited our needs. The driveway is very steep, abut intimidating, but we worked it out. Pine mountain lake was perfect, we had a lot of fun. Kayaking, boat rental, bocce ball, volleyball, all available at the beach. Thanks for sharing your home with us, Anita.

About the host

Hosted by Anita Pollard

Hello, we are the Pollard family. Rob, Anita our 3 boys and our 2 dogs. We live in the Central Valley of California, just over an hour away from our vacation home. We enjoy the lake, ocean and the outdoors as well as playing games and visiting with friends and family. In our busy lives, we find it is important to take some time to slow down and enjoy family and friends and our vacation home is the perfect place for this.

Why they chose this property

We just loved this home as soon as we saw it. It is a peaceful spot to relax and enjoy life. It is a place to slow down and breathe in the clean air. When you are done slowing down (because there is only so much slowing down three busy boys can do), there is so much to do at Pine Mountain Lake. We love boating and fishing and just spending time on the lake. We have always enjoyed traveling and using vacation rental homes and are now excited to be hosts.

-Yosemite is so close, its easy to drive up for a day and then relax at the cabin in the evening.
-Being a part of the Home Owners Association allows access to the pool, tennis/pickle-ball courts, horse shoes and to the lake.
-There are boats to rent, Golfing, Horseback riding
-The area offers river rafting, hiking, biking, wine tasting, historic Gold Rush sites and more.

What makes this property unique

-Location near the Lake and Golf Course
-Large game room and sleeping quarters downstairs for kids
-Pool table and Wii with lots of games
-Two beautiful decks
- Short drive to Yosemite
