Perfect - away from the bustle of Yosemite Village but still within the park. The house had everything we needed…check-in process was seamless and was everything we wanted and needed. Would recommend.
Modern, compact home in a perfect location for Yosemite Valley.
This house was perfectly located for Yosemite Valley as it is within the park which means you avoid the long queues into the park everyday. Otherwise, the house was modern, clean and smart, and had everything required for a family stay.
This home was perfect for our Yosemite adventure! We were close enough to explore all of Yosemite..we drove the Tioga Road, visited Yosemite Valley and walked with the Sequoias in Mariposa Grove. The house was clean and well stocked for all of our cooking needs. The beds were comfortable and the washer and dryer worked wonderfully. Perfect place to stay.
I thought I booked Yosemite East and was surprised to see the entrance to Yosemite West. It was my error, and we were pleased with the location. Very close to the valley floor and we loved the neighborhood. As a vacation home owner, I am very aware of how a home should be presented. The television did not work the entire time. During the day it did not matter. We called management and they came out and could not fix it. Offered complimentary DVDs for our stay. In the master bathroom, there was not anywhere to hang a wet towel. One hair dryer and it did not work. I am not sure if someone left it behind. 4 wine glasses for a home that accommodates 8 people. The house comfortably accommodates 6 people due to the living space. We'd stay again, but know what we need to pack.
My family and I loved staying at this property in Yosemite West which provides a great starting point for all of the park activities. We were impressed with the cleanliness of the unit and communication with the Property Manager was outstanding. The unit itself is in great condition with great amenities and big open windows to enjoy the setting. We highly recommend and will definitely be back.
What a wonderful location with beautiful sunsets! This house was perfect for our family of four. A great location in the park itself!

Could not have asked for a better place to stay
This place was perfect for our weekend in Yosemite. It provided easy access to all the popular park locations and the cabin itself was nice and comfortable to spend our evenings in after our day hikes. Kitchen allowed us to cook our breakfasts and dinners easily and parking worked out great for us to come and go as we pleased. Will definitely be trying to stay here again next year when we go back for more hikes and climbing!

Lovely House with only a few minor issues
This house is very nice and super modern with a full kitchen, and everything you need is there. We also loved the bathroom tubs and furniture. Overall, we enjoyed our stay!
A few minor issues:
- One of the two big round ceiling light bulb in the dining room was burnt out and we couldn't find spare light bulbs in the house.
- The floor could be cleaner. My white socks became black over the three days I stayed here.

beautiful home. could have been cleaner though..
The house had everything you need and more. The only thing was that the floor wasn't cleaned too well. We had to sweep the floor when we got there. No visible dirt but I felt the dirt as i walked around. Also, the shower curtain was moldy. But everything else was perfect. Great place and we would love to go back.

Fabulous property in a great location!
Beautiful new property. Spacious and well appointed with all the amenities one could need. As close as you can get to Yosemite Valley without staying in the valley.

Nice house
Nice and peaceful place to stay in. The only problem was the wifi wasn't working at all. They sent someone to go check the problem, he saw it wasn't working told us he'll be back and he never did.

Beautiful views and house.
More wifi would be a great addition. The unlimited wifi at the business center was too slow to be useful.
