About this property

NEWER Yosemite Inverness House with Central Air and Heat Inside Yosemite Park

Yosemite West is centrally located inside the park entrance, and sits near an intersection of the roads leading to the park's most famous features: Yosemite Valley, Glacier Point and Mariposa Grove of Giant Sequoias.

This private updated 2-level house sits at the end of a quiet street, with a network of running and hiking trails surrounding the neighborhood. Too hot? Too cold? Not a problem. Our home features central air conditioning for those too hot for comfort nights and central heat to keep every part of the house toasty.

KITCHEN / DINING / DECK
Cook comfortably in our fully-equipped kitchen with full-size, stainless steel appliances, gas range, granite countertops and fully stocked with service for 8 and all the necessary gadgets to prepare your favorite meals. Pantry is stocked with a variety of spices and individually wrapped teas, sugar and cream. The dining area has a pub-style table for six and is open to the living room area.

Enjoy the views while you grill, dine or lounge outdoors on our expansive 300 sq ft. deck. You have your choice of grilling on a GAS BBQ grill (located on the deck) or grilling on a free-standing, cast iron, CHARCOAL grill (located on the lower level in front of the house).

PICNIC BASKET
We’ve provided a picnic basket and cooler for a spontaneous picnic in the park. Picnic basket serves 6 and includes individually wrapped salt & pepper. Reusable ice packs can be found in the freezer.

LIVING ROOM
Clean, bright and tastefully decorated, the living room is an inviting space with a large and comfortable curved sectional sofa, gas burning stove, flat-screen TV, and plenty of DVDs for your next movie night. The dish network connection is very unreliable due to the height of the surrounding trees. We are hoping a new carrier will soon come into the Yosemite West area with a more reliable TV service.

LIBRARY WEST
A diverse and extensive library of books is available for you to enjoy including books on Yosemite, hikes and nature walks. You may take books with you if haven’t finished reading them and you’re also welcome to contribute to our library with books of your own. There are plenty of “reading lights” conveniently throughout the house.

BEDROOMS
The first bedroom is furnished with a full size bed and twin bunk beds. The second is furnished with a king sized bed. The master bedroom is also furnished with a king bed. Bathroom #1 has dual sinks with granite countertop, tiled floor, full size shower/tub and plenty of natural light. The master bathroom has dual sinks, granite countertops, tiled floors, and a shower.

BATHROOM
Plenty of natural light fills the bathroom and features dual sinks, granite counter tops and tiled floor. Enjoy “hotel-like” complimentary toiletries. First aid kit under the bathroom sink.

WASHER/DRYER
Full size washer and dryer available for guests staying 3 days or more.

High attention to detail

This property has every detail thought of. From a fully equipped kitchen, to bathroom amenities, linens and even games and equipment for small children. Judy has been thoughtful and anticipated every situation, including parking recommendations due to severe changes in weather.

Inaccurate property description

The property was inaccurately described on the VRBO website and upon arrival we realized right away. The listing is not a house, it’s a duplex and the unit is an upstairs apartment. There was no access to the driveway by way of car, issues with the water pressure and the washer & dryer was in the garage which is separate from the unit. The cleanliness was below acceptable and we spent our first evening washing sheets, pillowcases, cleaning bathrooms, vacuuming & mopping up piles of dust, candy wrappers, food scraps and trash. We reached out to the property attendant, Judy requesting a partial refund and an early check out which she immediately agreed to. She was very professional, easy to work with and easily accessible. Our experience was not the best. If the property description were more accurate and nightly rate reduced to reflect the accuracy we may consider another stay. But, for now, we are moving on.

Amazing location!

So happy with our stay here! Host was very helpful and communicative prior to and during our stay. Judy provided detailed arrival directions and house information. House was impeccably clean. Well stocked throughout. Lots of spices in the kitchen, plenty of toiletries in the bath including make-up remover towelettes, a towel warmer, extra blankets, space heaters, games (we loved smarty pants), fast WiFi. We lacked for nothing. Fireplace was easy to use and cozy. Quiet location at the edge of neighborhood. Quick access to Yosemite Village and Mariposa Grove. Pro tip: The beauty of this place is it’s remote - be sure you plan ahead. We gassed up and brought all the food we needed for our entire stay. That saved us longer trips to re-stock. Park recommendations: Don’t miss a chance to walk up to the Nose to El Capitan. Just off the Old Big Oak access point is a short loop trail that brings you right to the base of El Capitan. No crowds! And we happened across some climbers starting their ascent. Also don’t miss the Mariposa Grove on the south end of the park. We also hiked the Sentinel Meadow Cook’s Meadow loop which brings you by the lower Yosemite Falls, chapel and criss-crosses the valley with stunning views of Half Dome. The All Trails app has excellent hiking options. Be aware that you won’t have internet access in most of the park and download any maps ahead of time. And if you get a clear night definitely go stargazing!! Thank you Judy!!

About the host

Hosted by Judy Brandy Yoho

I have loved Yosemite since my teens. We climbers drank straight from all the rivers, and spent our days on the granite walls. In my early 20s, I climbed every major cliff in the Yosemite Valley, had barely enough money to buy a beer, and hitchhiked everywhere I couldn’t walk. My best memories…

This place is 12 miles from El Capitan Meadows, the best picnic spot in the Valley. At about 5500 feet above sea level, it’s nice and cool all summer when the Valley is sweltering. At the edge of the Yosemite West, there’s no development on any lot surrounding this one, so it’s private.

Why they chose this property

Location, location, location. Yosemite West is located inside the park entrance, and sits near an intersection of the roads leading to the park's most famous features: Yosemite Valley, Glacier Point and Mariposa Grove of Giant Sequoias. These popular park destinations are all within 15-18 miles (30-35 minutes) from Yosemite West in three different directions. And for winter fun, we enjoy the Badger Pass ski area (only seven miles away).
