Beautiful location with the sights and sounds of the full river in the “backyard”. It’s as the photos show - felt like a trusty old family getaway. Owner was quite responsive.

Just Perfect After a Day in Yosemite
We loved our stay here. It would be hard to top the splendor of Yosemite but coming “home” to this cabin was close. It was so peaceful and beautiful! The river rushing by the property, the brilliant stars at night, drinking our morning coffee on the deck with the river our view…wow! It doesn’t really get any better.

Perfect for a family getaway
This home has it all. The location inside the park makes for an easy drive to Yosemite Valley for hiking and to Badger Pass for fun in the snow. We all enjoyed the views from the home overlooking the river. It was chilly outside so we didn’t use the huge deck much but felt as if we were outside because the f the huge windows. The kitchen is well equipped and the beds are comfortable

Peaceful cottage by the river
Nice house, comfortable bed, enjoyable deck for afternoons by the river. We were there in April, used the upstairs master, since it was low-30’s at night, and upstairs was warmer. We liked having Wawona as our base. Local shopping at Pine Tree Market served our needs. We liked the selections, but Wawona Grocery, near the Wawona Hotel, another option. Don’t overlook Wawona Hotel Restaurant, we had great meals there.

This place was great! Its right on the river and was a great place to come back to after a long hike. It's also right by a little market that had all the things we needed when we ran out of something. I would stay here again.
