Perfect little place for a small group. All of the amenities you could ask for. I bit of a drive to the sites but an awesome alternative to a hotel due to being inside of Yosemite.

Water supply is vital
Overall, pretty clean and comfortable with plenty of essentials. Only bummer was when we returned from a beautiful day of hiking Yosemite on our last afternoon and found that the water had been shut off by Public Works. Scraped through the night and had to leave early the next morning. Better check with the owner about that if you’re interested in staying there…

The VRBO was clean and well appointed . AC and internet here also excellent. The location was inside Yosemite so it cut our travel time each day in half. It did not have much in the way of views but after long days of hiking we were more interested in creature comforts.

Perfect Sibling Getaway!
My brother and I were looking for somewhere to stay near the park as we had won a Half Dome permit and would need to get on the trail early. This was the perfect pick. The community of Yosemite West is quiet and gorgeous and about a half hour from the Valley. The house was the perfect size for us, the beds were comfortable (MUCH appreciated after long hiking days), and we loved the front porch. We didn’t cook, but the kitchen was very well-stocked. There are many books about Yosemite, some puzzles, and children’s books and games. I would absolutely stay here again.

Location great, cleanliness fell short for us
We arrived about 4:30 pm to find the place a mess and not yet cleaned. By the time we connected with owner and he got cleaning crew out it was 8:30 before we could check in and use the place, so not a great start. Even after cleaning the entry mat was still dirty, used wash cloths in both baths and dust you could see all over from Lott looking down so I’m not sure how this place gets such a great review for cleanliness. It was great being inside the park and we did enjoy Yosemite. This is about as close as you can get without camping or staying at a Yosemite hotel/lodge. About 30 min drive into that area. Beds were comfortable and kitchen well stocked.

Family visiting Yosemite for the first time. Was the perfect setup. Yosemite west is a little far from sites in the park but I don’t think you can do any better if you want to rent a house. We were able to cook out meals and get a great night’s sleep. Host was super responsive.

Great home base for an amazing time at Yosemit
This cabin was a wonderful place to stay for our trip to Yosemite. Yosemite is a large park with limited accommodations for our family of 5 but this cabin was perfect. We appreciated the air conditioning and the space! It was located within the park entrance and we loved that we got to enjoy the Tunnel View each time we entered the valley. The location was also convenient to everything we wanted to do in Yosemite. We would highly recommend this cabin to anyone traveling to Yosemite.

Close to Yosemite & Well Setup!
Before I begin, do NOT be like us and forget to have the check-in info in either a hard copy format or screen printed photos on your phone, because we had zero cell coverage with AT&T regardless of where we were in the neighborhood. We ended up having to go back into Wawona in order to connect and retrieve the check-in info, which took a little more than an hour. We stayed here in July of 2024, so it was awesome to come home to a nice cool home (even when the AC was turned off while we were gone) and a shower after a long day of outdoor hiking and exploring! The kitchen was perfectly outfitted, which allowed us to easily cook our own tasty meals each evening. The beds were comfortable, the mini-split ACs worked great, and the TV had many service options! The size of the unit was great for our family of four. The Starlink internet was reliable and easy to use. If you have an EV, there was a plug at the front of the home, though we did not use it as our van is just a regular gasoline vehicle. The driveway is very steep and I cannot imagine driving our minivan up it in winter, plus the parking at top is tight. Though, we were able to manage without problems. Overall, I recommend this unit to anyone visiting Yosemite who doesn’t want to fight the crowds in the park after a day of exploring! Oh! We also had one minor concern while staying, and after I texted the managing owner, they called me within just a couple of minutes to resolve! Thank you!!

Ideal location for Yosemite
We stayed 4 nights in July and loved the proximity to Yosemite. It is especially convenient to Glacier Point Road. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook all of our meals in. The beds were very comfortable and it was really nice to have a separate bathroom for our 18-year-old son! The one evening the power went out, the manager was responsive and helped get information from the electric company. (It was out in the whole neighborhood.) The cabin was nicely stocked and appointed. A great stay!

Perfect location for our family trip to Yosemite
I was lucky enough to be able to book this place a couple of months prior to our trip and it ended up being just perfect !!! I totally recommend staying at Yosemite West for your stay - and this cottage was just perfect. everything was well thought out for the guests to feel comfortable during our stay. Beds are super comfy, AC + fans made the cottage very comfortable considering the very hot weather outside, had lots of various books (including info on the Park) and games, the kitchen was more than well equipped ! only comment is to recommend adding wine - beer glasses to the kitchen ;) I would definitely recommend this place if you are going to this amazing National Park !!! Many thanks to the hosts.

Well stocked 2bed 2bath inside Yosemite
Perfect for 3 adults and 2 kids for 3 night stay in July. House was ideally located inside Yosemite Park. Very well stocked with kids supplies (toys, games, high chair, Pack N Play). Kitchen was the most well stocked of any rental house (appliances, cooking supplies, nice cookware). Washer and dryer in house with detergent. Also electric car charger. Just bring your own groceries and you will be all set. Will stay again on our next visit.

Great location and property for Yosemite vacation
We were so happy about the location of the property. Staying inside the gate is the way to go. Possibly during peak season, you might want to be in the valley in order to avoid driving entirely. Our trip to Yosemite was a bit off season to avoid the crush and this property was perfect. The cabin had everything that we needed to enjoy our stay. We would definitely book this property again if we travel to Yosemite.

Perfect Home Base
I've been to Yosemite several times but, this was my first stay in West Yosemite and it didn't disappoint! This was the most well stocked and best organized rental I've experienced. It was perfect our group of three that includes a toddler. It puts the renter in easy driving distance to Yosemite's biggest attractions. If you don't feel like driving, sit on the peaceful front porch where we had the privilege of seeing a momma bear and cub cross the street below. Truly an amazing place!
