Wonderful stay...

We had a wonderful stay, the beds were comfy, the setting was quiet and private. We had a few things to let Ivy know about, and she responded super quickly each time! She was a great property host and we will return again:)!

Serene stay at Hilltop Hideaway

Appreciative of the great service, space and seclusion of this home. It worked great for a 3 day visit to Yosemite Park. The location is very quiet. The home is spacious. And the property amenities suit a range of needs. Would definitely stay here again.

Beautiful home

This air b and b was very clean, cozy and felt like home. Every room in the house was spacious and had a lot of natural lighting. The design and decor was on point. The owner Ivy was very nice and responsive. About an hour and a half from Yosemite but worth the drive it was very quiet and beautiful. Highly recommend!

Beautiful outdoor space and backyard, nice big master bedroom. Great location for getting from Fresno and to Yosemite. There were minor things that it seems like the property owner is aware of and trying to fix, not enough to reduce the score, but still a bit annoying.None of these were major issues, but it felt like for what we paid, the house needed a good once-over to check for those little things. I felt like I was reporting this stuff to the property owner and I wasn't trying to be a pest, but I genuinely wasn't sure if the owner knew some of these things. The host was responsive when I messaged.

Beautiful, peaceful location with everything you need

An absolute fantastic stay at this house. Size of the property is amazing and plenty of room. Main master bedroom is huge and the ensuite is a real bonus. Other bedroom are equally well sized. Living room areas and kitchen are great. Oven easy to use along with TVs etc. Wifi worked well which was a bonus given that you are secluded. Hot tub was great especially after long days in Yosemite. Washer and dryer were perfect especially as we were road tripping and needed to wash clothes every so often. The property is pretty close to Oakhurst which has a lot of amenities such as a Vons supermarker, gas stations, fast food etc so there is enough on your doorstep to either eat in or go out. Sunsets in the hot tub were class and so peaceful. I would highly recommend.

Fantastic stay!

This place was amazing! It was our first vrbo so wasn’t sure what to expect. Ivy was very accommodating for a change in travel plans that happened with my sister-in-laws family. The place is gorgeous and was perfect stay for our vacation.

Gorgeous and Peaceful

6 of us fit very comfortably into the house. The beds were very comfortable. The backyard view of the countryside was so beautiful—we spent a lot of time out there. The drive into the park was doable and gorgeous both routes (we went in one entrance and went out the other both days). Great stay!

Amazing Ahwahnee Stay

We had an amazing stay in this lovely property. Ivy was always on hand to answer questions. House was perfect for us with everything you need plus amazing views from the back. Very close to grocery stores in Oakhurst. It was a but of a trek to get into Yosemite at 1 1/2 hours drive but well worth the early starts. We were sad to keave and thoroughly recommend.

Yosemite NP

Ruhig. Toller Außenbereich mit sehr schönem Ausblick. Feuerstelle. Einrichtung und Ausstattung hat Höhen und Tiefen, für uns war es aber alles okay. Billardtisch. Großer Gasgrill. Neue Waschmaschine und Trockner. Viel Platz im Haus und im Außenbereich. Für ein paar Tage würden wir das Haus absolut empfehlen. Wir würden es wieder buchen!
