My son and I absolutely enjoyed our stay at this cabin. I booked this trip very last minute and the host was able to accommodate. I read the great reviews and it didn’t disappoint. The cabin was very cozy and being able to see and hear the river flowing directly behind the cabin was so peaceful, exactly what I was looking for. The bed was so comfortable, we slept very well and the host was very nice, offered very helpful information and was easy to contact. There is a market just a short walk/drive up the road that was pretty well stocked with items needed that I forgot to get at the grocery store on the way up there so that was pretty convenient. We did have to change the dates due to a power outage caused by a recent snow storm but that actually worked out in our favor bc had we went the original dates I had booked, we would not have had the opportunity to experience seeing the FireFall at El Capitan bc it was not visible during the days I had originally planned on going so my son and I were very happy about that. 10/10 highly recommended and will definitely book again. I hope I can come back in the summer

My family loved the sound of the running river, paddling in the water and hiking through the trees. House was exactly as it was described, perfect for a group of 5. Beautiful view from deck. Questions answered quickly. Definitely would recommend this place to stay. From Wisconsin and England

The cabin was as advertised! It was perfect for our family. We loved the deck and river behind. It was warm, but it really cooled off in the evening. It was very close to Mariposa grove and about 45 50 minutes to the valley. I would recommend this to anyone wanting to experience the beauty of Yosemite!

Great stay! Beautiful location

Loved our stay! It was perfect for our family and exactly what we were looking for. The views were beautiful, and the kids loved playing in the river (and jumping rock!) behind the house. It was the perfect thing to do after hiking during the day, that was both fun and low key. Kip was also very responsive and helpful with the communication. Highly recommend!
