Nice home about an hour from the west entrance to Yosemite (make sure you have reservations to enter the park). One lone deer visited every morning. Not many dining options, but the pizza place has very good wings for a decent price. The local grocery store was well stocked. The cabin itself was nice. A few cobwebs here and there, but that did not bother us. The split (multi-zone) AC system was nice. Shampoo/conditioner/body wash was available in both the upstairs and downstairs showers - no bathtub here. Washer and dryer were available and worked great - some pods was there for guests to use. Great selection of DVD's are on site, but no time to watch them. Kitchen pots/pans were not the greatest, but useable. BBQ grill was available with plenty of propane, so never concerned about running out of gas. It was a bit difficult to get all our luggage up to the main floor access door, although access to the bottom bedroom/laundry/2nd bath was much easier. But you do not want to carry any luggage up the spiral staircase! All in all, we had a lovely time and would stay again. Thank you.

Great place, but the fees stink.
We loved it. It was exactly as pictured...except for the price, which went to almost three times the advertised price. There are VRBO fees as well as Vacasa fees and blatant pocket picking like adding a non-refundable "damage waiver." What does that even mean except hand over more money for nothing?

Great location for a Yosemite visit.
Property was well kept, and spacious for a family of five and two dogs. This was our last trip with our older dog and was very memorable for our family. Thank you for sharing your gem in Groveland.

Rustic retreat fits the bill
What a cute little house! We loved the rustic decor, the layout and the beds - mattresses are new and we all slept well. However, if you need a set of matching plates and cups, an espresso machine, or a dish washier, this place is not for you. We could not confirm what another guest mentioned in regards to cleanliness - the cabin was spotless! Though there is no general AC, each room has a wall unit that provided enough coolness during the day. The cabin is in a lovely neighborhood and when having dinner in the evening outside on the deck, we watched deer and turkeys in the backyard. The cabin is too far from the lake to walk from there to the beach, but it makes a short drive. We truly enjoyed a plunge in the lake after long hikes in Yosemite!

Cute place in need of a deep cleaning.
The place is really cute and met all of our needs. The atmosphere was great and the space was perfect. The main problem was the place was dirty. To begin, the sign upon entry asks us to remove shoes which was done. Within a short period of time our feet and socks were filthy. The home was very dusty and cobwebs were everywhere. The worst part was the comforters on the beds. All were dirty and an unmentionable was found on one of the comforters. Family spent the first evening cleaning the bedding late into the night. The home is great, owners, management and cleaners must do a much better job of detailing this property from time to time and doing a great job of cleaning between guests. Pine Mountain Lake was great and family had a wonderful time. Colorado guests.

Great Yosemite Home Base
We had a wonderful stay at the cabin! It is located in a quiet part of the neighborhood and is convenient to Yosemite (45 minutes to gate/ 1 hour, 15 minutes to Visitor's Center). The kitchen was very well stocked, and the grill was awesome (highly recommend the meat shop in Groveland). We had some ant issues, but the rental company was quick to respond with bait. As there were only two of us, we slept downstairs and the temperature was fine, but the upstairs can be quite warm. We were grateful to be able to have our dogs with us, and there is a latch on the upper part of the porch to keep them confined when grilling.
