About this property
Upscale Air-Conditioned Yosemite West Vacation Home Inside Park Gates
Cedar Star at Yosemite is designed to maximize guest comfort and convenience. This first-class house features air conditioning, a whole-house automatic standby generator (there are frequent utility power outages in Yosemite), king size beds in each of three bedrooms, a queen-size sofa bed, well-appointed bathrooms (including 2 with steam showers and 1 with a jetted tub), 2 full-size gourmet kitchens (including a 36-inch induction cook-top and convection oven on the main floor), and large covered wraparound decks on each floor to enjoy the view of local mountains and sunsets.
Plenty of space to gather as a group inside and outside on the decks, and also quieter, more private areas when you need some quiet time.
Additional features include hardwood and tile floors, high-end room-size rugs, 2 television areas with 60" LED screens, Wi-Fi internet, satellite TV, off-street all-season parking for 5 cars, washer and dryer, and easy access to the main floor from the street so you don't have to carry luggage and groceries up flights of stairs to enter the house.
Please note that there may be doorbell and/or other type of security camera(s) located on the exterior of the house. Guests will be advised of each device's exact location prior to check-in if any security camera is installed and active.
Cedar Star at Yosemite strongly recommends that guests purchase travel insurance. Refunds and/or credits outside of VRBO's cancellation policy will not be granted unless the house is inaccessible due to park closure, evacuation orders, or major utility failure.
Follow all local safety advisories regarding travel in California.

About the host
Hosted by Donald Caldwell

My family emigrated to Gold Rush California five generations ago from France and Germany. Though they didn't strike it rich in the gold fields, they were very lucky to have settled and remained in California, where they thrived.
I am a fifth-generation, native-born Californian, and enjoying the majesty of Yosemite is part of my family's history.
It brings me great pleasure to introduce (or re-introduce) Yosemite National Park to visitors from all over the world, and to provide a special, welcoming place for them to stay during their visit.

Why they chose this property
Cedar Star at Yosemite was designed and built over the course of 39 months with a close eye on guests' comfort and convenience. The building lot was selected for its location at a higher altitude than others in the neighborhood in order to minimize the threat of driving on black ice in the winter during ski season, though that decision added a significant amount to construction costs. The furnishings were chosen to allow guests to enjoy a level of comfort unique to vacation houses, not only in Yosemite, but also in the Sierra Nevada. And the house is centrally located among the best parts of Yosemite National Park--including Yosemite Valley and The Mariposa Grove of Giant Sequoias. In winter it's just a 15 minute drive to Badger Pass ski area ... Good downhill skiing, World Class x-country and snowshoeing.
