Great stay

Our stay was so much better than expected ! We really enjoyed Kellys cabin. It is so cozy and the AC in the cabin really kept the place cool in this 90° weather. My 3 kids enjoyed playing with the toys and seeing the deer. Bass lake is only 10 minutes away which was perfect for us.

Cozy Cabin

This cabin is adorable! Easy parking, several outdoor spaces to enjoy, and a washer/dryer made this spot ideal. Located close to restaurants/shopping and minutes from the south entrance to Yosemite; the host was very easy to communicate with and accommodating. The cabin did have WiFi, coffee/creamers and laundry detergent when we visited.

Wonderful Cabin!

What a great cabin. We got in late and immediately saw deer on the property. Our kids were very excited. Kelly was very responsive to inquiries. This cabin was just a short drive to the park entrance. The place itself was very comfortable and had plenty of board games for the kids. I would definitively want to bring my family back to Kelly’s property.

Everything you need

We had a great stay at the Fire Escape! From bottle opener to extra blanket, it has everything you need. Communication was good with owners. The place is well situated. It is 1h30 drive from Yosemite Valley, but the road to get there is worth it! We recommend!

Great location

we enjoyed our stay here at the fire escape cabin. The location to the south entrance of Yosemite was perfect. We were also pleasantly close to Bass Lake and downtown Oakhurst. If you plan to enjoy the lake, bring a umbrella, floaties and beach chairs. They do have 2 camping chairs available but as we live at the beach i appreciate a nice beach chair for a leisurely day on the shore. I do suggest a day on the lake or a quick trip to jump in and cool off. Like I said its very close to the cabin. We did cook just about every meal. The kitchen was adequately stocked. I do suggest if you use spices that you bring your own but plenty of salt and pepper. It was nice to have a gas grill on the patio. There were plenty of movie options and TV entertainment for the evenings after a long day of exploring. My kids are teenagers but it seemed to have plenty of toys and games to play. It had plenty of room for the 5 of us. The beds were nice but very firm. It has window ac in each bedroom which was a must this time of year. The shower was not that great. The pressure was minimal and the shower head made it hard to get the soap off. I loved that it had a washer and dryer with detergent available (although I brought my own just in case). The one bathroom is downstairs from the bedrooms and had plenty of space for more than 1 person at a time. The family room had wonderfully comfortable seating which I love. No air conditioning unit downstairs just fans. While we managed ok because we were gone during the hottest time of day we did spend an afternoon in the cabin and it was mildly uncomfortable with just the fans. I run 🔥 so take this as informational only. We are not big hikers so we planned other activities besides just exploring Yosemite. The sugar pine mt railroad in fish camp was close to the cabin and a wonderful way to learn about the history of yosemite logging. It was a nice train ride through the forest. We also went horseback riding at the Yosemite horse pack station. The trail was very rough. They are very strict about their bmi requirements due to the nature of the trails so be advised that they weight and measure each adult. They will turn you away if you don't meet the requirements. We love the water and spent an afternoon on the side of a beautiful creek just inside Wawona. The water was very clear and wonderful on a hot day. Bring a picnic and hang out. Kelly was great. She answered all my questions quickly. Ty

Loved our stay at the fire escape. Everything was thought of and more. Comfy beds and great amenities. Wished we could stay longer and enjoy more time in the cottage but spent most of our time exploring Yosemite! Thanks for a fab stay!

Great stay for a family of 5 for two nights. We explored Yosemite during the day and it was perfect to go back to this property and relax in the evening. Nice location, very clean, all the amenities we needed. Nice deck to sit out. I’d definitely stay there again!

Family Trip

We absolutely loved the location and decor of the Fire Escape Cabin! We were able to do all our grocery shopping at the local Vons and we were close by to Yosemite’s south entrance and also Bass Lake. The only issue we encountered were the amount of spider webs and the dusty furniture but that could easily be fixed. Overall, this cabin is fully stocked and an absolute must if visiting Yosemite. The Barreto family has thought of everything! The welcome binder has helpful information and having access to WiFi is great especially when traveling with children. Thank again Barreto family for making our first Yosemite trip easier.
