Great place to stay to visit 3 national parks.

This place was perfect for us to visit Yosemite Sequoia and Kings Canyon national Parks. Our hosts were very helpful and inviting and responded to anything that we needed help with. I would recommend this as a great place to stay.

Great Stay

We stayed here and traveled to Yosemite, Sequoia & Kings Canyon. Great place to unwind in the evenings. Enjoyed watching the deer play in the back yard almost every evening. I’d recommend this place to anyone traveling to the National Parks in the area. Oh and the cookies were so delicious!!!

This was the beginningof our trip to Yosemite, and what an amazing start. The hosts are friendly and thoughtful. The space is welcoming, and the location is perfect. Lots to explore around Bass Lake. We enjoyed the Mona trail hike. Again, these are super hosts! Thanks so much.

Wonderful!

My husband and I stayed here for a couple of nights and it was so great! Everything was very clean and the communication and attention were spectacular! About a 40-50min drive to get to Yosemite in December. Definitely recommend staying here.

Great Hosts = Great Stay !

Brett & Jan are exceptional at anticipating ALL of the needs that might be needed or appreciated by their guests, as well as being available to accommodate any questions. We felt super comfortable and relaxed from the time we opened the door ! Quiet nights and good bed made for good sleep! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Welcome Respite

We had driven down from Sacramento to take a day tour at Yosemite. It was lovely to arrive to such a welcoming space and rest up for our tour. The cookies left were amazing. After our tour it was wonderful to retire and relax after a very busy day to prepare for our return to Sacramento. A nice getaway weekend.

I loved the Finegold retreat! It is a beautiful property and everything was immaculate. My room was spacious and very comfy, Janel (the host) is lovely and was so friendly and helpful suggesting hikes etc. She also leaves homemade cookies (yummm!) and gave me home made ice cream. I'd love to go back and stay longer.

Cute, rural property, far from the crowds. Lovely hosts. Very relaxing. About 30 minutes to Yosemite park gates, 90 minutes to the valley. It worked well for us visiting the valley. Microwave, aircon, etc.
