The house is on just about 8 acres of land. There is a workshop and another house on the property both a few hundred feet away. They are both out of sight and very private from the house you will be staying in. You are allowed to explore the whole 8 acres as long as you do not bother the tenants in the other house. We have a private hot tub along with a BBQ for you to show off your grilling skills! The property is unfenced and an abundance of wildlife pass through. Please keep an eye on your pets! Y
Pets:
We love pets and allow them at no extra charge! However, we have a strict rule that pets must be kept off of all furniture and that any accidents be cleaned up immediately. Any pet related cleaning and damages, including fur removal, may incur extra charges. Please also keep pets on leash due to abundant wildlife!
Parking:
We have a long gravel driveway leading up to the house. Don't worry, any car is capable of making it! Parking is outdoors on the driveway and it can accommodate 4 cars.
Other things to note:
Please remember to make appropriate reservations to enter Yosemite National Park
We do not accept cancellations due to normal weather events such as storms or smoke caused by wildfires. VRBO may allow cancellation but only after a government issued statement.
The community draws water from a well that is rich in natural minerals which may occasionally leave spots on utensils and sink/shower handles. However, you can rest assured knowing that our professional cleaning crew thoroughly sanitizes the home in between each stay.
Have a larger group? We also have a large geodesic dome in Coarsegold( about 20 minutes away)! Please check out our other listings to accommodate larger groups and also for a very unique stay!
*Please remember to check if Yosemite and other attractions need reservations. Most reservations will fall during the summer and holiday weekends throughout the year*
Other things to note:
We are in the mountains on an unfenced property with abundant wildlife. Do not be alarmed if you see wildlife on the property. That being said, please keep pets close at all times and on leash!
Check in and check out will be with a lockbox code.
