Regarding California Wild Fires:
Please see our cancellation policy in regards to wildfires. California wildfires are unfortunately a seasonal norm. The California fire season can extend from the months of July-November. Smoke and haze from distant fires can travel hundreds of miles depending on wind and other aspects of weather. Fires often burn in Yosemite National Park but are usually isolated to a small area of the park. In rare occasions Yosemite will close to the public while crews are handling larger incidents. The lodge is south of the Yosemite park entrance and is still accessible if the park closes. Wildfire related refunds would only be granted in a case where you are unable to access the lodge due to road closures or evacuations of our neighborhood.
No weather or snow related refunds. While snow is not constant in the area in the winter time, snow falls are not unusual in this 2,500 ft elevation. please be prepared to carry snow chains and monitor snow conditions in the town of Oakhurst.
Interaction with Guests:
You will have full privacy in the house, but I'm available via the app/text if you need anything. You will also have my phone number.
