Sweet Yosemite Cottage Near the Park Entrance and Bass Lake

We are so glad to share our darling cottage near Yosemite National Park with you! The home is located just 20 minutes away from the south entrance of Yosemite, 8 minutes to the swimming beach at Bass Lake, and 2 minutes away from the town of Oakhurst with its restaurants, cafes, galleries and grocery stores.

The home is surrounded by massive granite boulders, giving you the true feeling of being in the Sierras out every window.

The cottage is fully equipped with blazing fast WIFI, air conditioning, a clothes washer/dryer, a full kitchen, bathroom, and Roku TV for streaming.

Our main goal, however, in designing the home is to give you a beautiful place to enjoy nature. Every single window has a stunning view of granite boulders, mountains, trees, or sometimes even wildlife (mostly rabbits).

The home comfortably sleeps between 2-5 people. The cottage has two bedrooms and one bathroom and is a great size for two couples or a family. Both bedrooms have queen sized beds and one of the bedrooms has a twin size pullout trundle underneath to sleep an extra person if required.

The property is filled with massive granite boulders all around that are great for climbing and exploring. Our kids love using them as a playground, though please make sure children are supervised and people climbing the boulders or exploring the property due so at their own risk.

Important note #1: The drinking water in the kitchen is purified using a reverse osmosis machine that filters our natural spring well water on the property. However, faucet water and shower water has kind of a salty tasty due to minerals in the area. While this water is perfectly safe, it's pretty salty tasting. Just drink the filtered water from the special drinking water tap in the kitchen!

Important note #2: This home is a very cute country cottage, but you're still out in the country! While we go out of our way to provide a modern, comfortable environment, you may see critters and bugs. As with everywhere near Yosemite, it's country life in the Sierras out here!

Additional note: We have one camera facing the driveway. Doesn't face back patio, or hot tub area.

We are so excited to share our cottage with you and we hope you create unforgettable memories here!
During your stay at this holiday home, you'll be within walking distance of Golden Chain Theater. 1 hot tub is available. Free WiFi and a kitchen are available in the holiday home.

Cute Cottage
The cute cottage is in a great location within the town - close to really good Glow Cafe, Chinese restaurant, and Reiner’s ice cream and candy shop, and an hour and 15 minute drive to Yosemite Valley. It has a nice jacuzzi and large are of land to roam with dogs and take in the view

Amazing Stay
Honestly, this has been one of the best stays we’ve had as a family. This house was perfect location wise, super private, cozy and most importantly clean. The town is also great, we’ve lived in different places due to my job, and Oakhurst is definitely how we love to live. All details from description are 100% accurate and more, the house honestly had more than we expected for it to have and that was a super plus. Michelle was very communicative since before our stay, and even the day of, she made sure we were good. I would for sure recommend this stay to anyone that’s looking to spend a couple of days in Yosemite. Thank you so much to the hosts for having us, it was great!

Couldn’t make it!
We were so excited to stay here! Unfortunately the weather had other ideas and we could not safely make it to this getaway due to record snowfall amounts.

Nice getaway in the mountains
It's a clean, little house that's nice, private, and cozy. It has a nice backyard area with some wildlife. If your looking to get out of the city for a few days and get away from the noise, this is it Also close to Yosemite.

Super cute house in Oakhurst!
We had a wonderful stay! Our kids especially loved exploring the rocks on the property, soaking in the hot tub and watching all the wild life! The only thing I would recommend is bringing water to drink if you are not used to well water. The property was just as described, we would definitely come back:)

Updated home in Beautiful Setting
A nicely appointed country retreat in Oakhurst near Yosemite. Three friends a dog enjoyed the spacious yard and quiet setting. The home was very clean and well appointed, with all the basics. Obviously lovingly cared for by owners who were very responsive with communication before and during our stay. Highly recommended.

Lovely Stay
We really enjoy our stay. Clean and updated. I loved being able to watch all the wildlife outside while I had my coffee in the morning. Fun to explore the rocks. Nice quite area on edge of town. If you love nature and privacy, this is the right spot for you. Had everything we needed. Wifi worked great. Would stay there again for sure!
