(1S) Cecil's Cabin at The Redwoods In Yosemite
Cecil's Cabin is a charming 2 Bedroom, 1.5 Bathroom home that sleeps up to 5 guests. It is located on the less populated south side of the Merced River where you'll enjoy the peaceful beauty and seclusion. The kitchen is fully equipped, including a dishwasher. A washer & dryer give you the comforts of home while on vacation! The living room includes a wood stove (firewood provided in season), satellite TV, and WiFi. This cabin features two decks. The top deck has an incredible unobstructed view of Yosemite forests, and the lower deck is perfect for those warmer summer days when you prefer the shade to rest, read, or watch the kids while they play outside. This home is located just one mile behind the historic Wawona Hotel, History Center, Golf Course, and a Market, and is less than 30 minutes from Yosemite Ski and Snowboard area! It makes a wonderful home base while you explore and play in Yosemite. The cabin has A/C No Pets Allowed. "EV Charging Station available within five miles of the cabin"
2 Bedrooms - 1 Full and 1 Half Bath - Sleeps 5 - Bi-Level - Bronze rated - 1,178 Sq. Ft. - 442 Sq. Ft. Deck
Wawona has the feel of a small town but is bustling with activity! Over 160 residents, including Yosemite Park employees, live in Wawona and can be seen gathering at the town's community center, playing a pickup game of basketball at the elementary school, jogging on one of the many picturesque trails, or simply walking their dogs and baby strollers through the winding residential streets. The historic Wawona Swinging Bridge boasts the best natural water slide in the Park! The history village is filled with docents, stagecoach rides, horseback rides, and barn dances in the summer season and the Wawona Meadow Loop offers year-round riparian meadow wildlife viewing.
Wawona was known to the local Native American Miwok in their language as Pallachun (a good place to stay). It is located entirely within Yosemite National Park (it preceded the founding of the park as a national recreation area) and is located on the South fork of the wild and scenic Merced River, on the main highway (State Route 41) from Fresno to Yosemite Valley.
Galen Clark, who helped gain preservation legislation for Mariposa Grove and what later became part of Yosemite National Park, occupied the Wawona area in 1855 and established a tourist rest and modest ranch which he later sold and made into a hotel and resort property (the Wawona Hotel). The Wawona post office was established in 1878 and was originally called Clark's Station.
The Redwoods In Yosemite has over 120 vacation rental homes and is proud to say that all of them are located in Wawona. All are within walking distance to everything that Wawona has to offer and every one of them is surrounded by the majesty of Yosemite National Park!

About the host
Hosted by The Redwoods in Yosemite

The Redwoods in Yosemite is in the little community of Wawona, 6 miles INSIDE the south entrance of Yosemite National Park. It makes a wonderful home base while you explore and play in Yosemite. Depending on the season, there is always something special to enjoy!
The rivers and waterfalls throughout the park, including nearby Chilnualna Falls, are nothing short of awe-inspiring in the spring.
During the summer, you can relax in the south fork of the Merced River & cascading waterfalls. Enjoy a hike to nearby Chilnualna Falls, the Swinging Bridge, and the Meadow Loop Trail. Visit the nearby famous Mariposa Grove of Giant Sequoias. Enjoy fine dining and play golf at the historic The Wawona Hotel, go horseback riding, fishing, enjoy Ranger walks and talks, or visit the Living History Center/Pioneer Village.
In the fall, the colors are spectacular as you enjoy the walking path around the golf course of the nearby historic Wawona Lodge.
In the winter, the family-friendly Badger Pass Ski Area offers snowshoeing, snowboarding, skiing, cross-country ski tours, and in Yosemite Valley, enjoy the outdoor ice-skating rink.
Our wedding and Event Center is open for all occasions in any season! Whether it's for a group ski vacation, business training, a family Christmas or Thanksgiving get-together, or a reunion of any kind, this is the perfect spot for all to gather.
Our Wedding and Event Center comfortably seats 100 for group meetings and 80 for formal dining. There is a large open deck with a fireplace, and inside there is a second fireplace along with a separate Board Room and Catering Kitchen.
Enjoy and relax in the welcoming atmosphere of our unique community.
