Thank you for choosing us for your getaway! We are so pleased you enjoyed your visit!
My wife and I stayed here for a quick trip to the Yosemite area. It was perfect for what we wanted. Nice quiet area with beautiful grounds. The cabin was exceptional in design and usability. Will stay here when we visit the area again.
What a cozy cabin! Even in the heat wave, it was cool and comfy. I really loved the big shower. It was close to town while being in the country. The hosts were very attentive to our needs.
We had a great stay at Yosemite Dreams. Recommend to any/all interested in staying near Yosemite (south entrance). Peaceful/relaxing. Oakhurst also is a delightful town.

This is a comfortable cozy cabin with a nice bathroom on spacious grounds very close to some spectacular hikes with a great host and a friendly town a few miles away. We had a memorable time.
We enjoyed our stay very much. Lisa is a wonderful host. The first night we were too tired to really enjoy it, but by the second night we were so happy we booked this cabin. It's quiet, clean, and relaxing.

Host was welcoming and informative. We ate at 2 restaurants in town and they were really good.The cabin was perfect. It was cozy and really comfortable. The property is serene with lots of wildlife in the area. We saw deer, turkeys, coyotes, bunnies and a lot of birds. Beautiful and peaceful.It was the perfect relaxing, do nothing kind of place. Although we did do some antiquing and thrifting as well as visited the Sugar Pine Railroad.Grateful they shared their beautiful property.
Wonderful place to rest and relax after a hard day of hiking in Yosemite. Hosts gave us a warm welcome and allowed us to go and come as we pleased. Property is fenced and we felt completely at ease.
Thanks for a wonderful stay!

Wow! Thank you for that lovely review! It makes us so happy to hear that our guests enjoyed themselves! We know you can choose a lot of different places and we thank you for choosing us! Be safe and happy! Lisa and Phil
We had a great time in Oakhurst. The cabin was perfect and the communication with the hosts was awesome. Phil helped up plan our Yosemite itinerary. We were so happy to see the 2 friendly dogs. We miss our pups when we travel so they were a nice bonus. If you like a woodsy cabin vibe you will definitely enjoy this place.

We are so glad you enjoyed your stay! Happy Anniversary!
The Lover’s Cabin was the perfect romantic setting for our Yosemite vacation. The quiet solitude that greeted us each morning and evening bookended the days we spent enjoying Yosemite, Bass Lake and surrounding areas. Thank you Lisa and Phil for providing such a relaxing atmosphere!

One of the nicest rentals we have ever had! A lovely cabin on a quiet and delightful property. While a bit far from Yosemite, it is in the closet town with a good range of services. We found this well worth a bit more driving. Lisa and Phil were kind and attentive hosts. My only recommendation is bring your own hotspot. Internet access is spotty, as we were warned.

Unique property
The property has several types of special trees and beautiful planting areas. We loved the unique social areas to share which included a comfy bed or rock for star gazing, a lit deck area for relaxing as well as benches to sit and watch the bunnies. The cabin was perfect - cozy and just right to spend quiet time together after a busy day touring or hiking at Yosemite. Lisa and Phil are very welcoming and added many special touches to our stay including fresh-picked blueberries and homemade muffins! They made us feel very welcome and are ideal hosts. We highly recommend a stay with them.

Beautiful cabin with great hosts and amazing views!
My wife and I had the best time celebrating our honeymoon in Oakhurst. Lisa and Phil were very accommodating hosts and wanted to be sure our stay was memorable. Lisa showed us around the beautiful grounds and gave us tips on where to go in Yosemite and Bass Lake. The friendly greeting committee of Cooper and Copper (adorable dogs) made our stay feel more at home.
The pictures on VRBO don’t do this property justice. The sunset over the hills is breathtaking and there is a patio with chairs set up so you can watch the sunset while eating dinner or having a glass of wine. The new outdoor bath “spa” with fresh well water was very relaxing after hiking in Yosemite all day.
We will definitely be coming back next June for our anniversary and can’t wait to see Lisa, Phil, Cooper & Copper. Thank you for making our honeymoon so special and memorable!

Enjoy! Lisa & Phil & Copper & Cooper
The whole booking process was seamless. The host was great. She responded very quickly to messages. Check in wa as flawless. We were there for an event at the rodeo and were able to check in early. The cabin was very clean just as described. The only thing I can say that was a slight discomfort was the air conditioner didn't cool down the whole house, that is of course is no fault to the homeowners it was a 110 this weekend and the sun beats directly down on the back of the cabin. My only suggestion would be maybe some darker curtains on the back part of the house to kind of block the 🌞 a little more. Other than that the house was perfect, I would definitely stay there again just maybe not when it's a 110 outside hahaha
The property is on 4 acres of land outside of Oakhurst. The accommodations are spartan but adequate. Mornings are greeted with birds and wind chimes. No TV or radio (which was fine with us). Property owners' dogs ran freely but were no problem and we enjoyed their company. A different experience that you will need to embrace to enjoy. Walking the property was encouraged by owners. Lots of different areas to take pictures (gardens, trees, sitting areas, etc).
We loved our stay at the cozy cabin. The bed was so comfortable and the shower was hot. Although the location was a bit remote, it was easy to get to town to dine out. The location was also perfect for our visit to Yosemite. Thanks you for a wonderful vacation!
Great property- Lisa is wonderful! We enjoyed ourselves so much!

About the host
Hosted by Lisa Wobler and Phil Ireland
Phil and Lisa just moved to Oakhurst from Del Mar/San Diego mid November 2015, where we lived for 30 years, prior to growing up on the East Coast. We just love our new location and would love to share it with you! Phil is a videographer and Lisa is a Yoga Instructor as well as a Wellness Coach. After raising four children in the San Diego area we moved to the mountains for our next life adventure!
Why they chose this property
This 2 1/2 acre property is just magical! Meandering walk ways, lush gardens, a variety of mature trees and a unique selection of sitting areas. We are located just a few miles from shops, restaurants, theaters, art galleries and grocery stores; and yet maintain a faraway feel. We are located just outside Yosemite National Park and minutes from Bass Lake. Oakhurst has many activities such as water sports, golf, upscale spas, museums, fun kid activities such as zip lines, train rides, sledding, ice skating and ice cream! This property gives you the feeling that you are in your own little park, far away from it all and yet you are just a few minutes away from a wide variety of activities, conveniences and adventures!
What makes this property unique
We love this property for its magical, peaceful feeling. The property has a beautiful home for us to live in as well as an exquisite, romantic custom cabin that allows us to share our property and yet give our visitors a sense of seclusion. Come and experience our dream!
