Whispering Pines

Make Whispering Pines your home base for your Yosemite vacation! This little cabin is fully equipped for a comfortable stay. As you enter the home you are greeted by warm custom wood work, all locally sourced and milled from Ponderosa Pines that were devastated by the bark beetle. Marvel at the blue tint and borrowing holes left behind by the beetle. The living room has a leather sofa set with queen size sofa bed (recommended for kids only), 43" smart UHD TV with dish network and DSL WiFi. The bedroom hosts a medium firm queen size hybrid mattress and custom made Ponderosa Pine headboard. The bathroom is equipped with a walk in shower and hand held shower head. The kitchen has all appliances including dishwasher, microwave, toaster and blender. All cookware and utensils provided. The spacious rear deck has a propane Weber Grill and we provide the propane. Located in central Wawona you can enjoy walks through the community, take a dip in the Merced River on warm summer days or stargaze at the Yosemite night sky. Wawona is home to the Pioneer history museum, the trail head for the Chilnualna Falls trail, close to the Mariposa Grove of Giant Sequoias and one of the few locations in the park with local market and gas.
This home is pet friendly for an additional fee.

What a great option for Yosemite!
We loved our stay here, the very small town of Wawona was friendly and inviting. The property itself was very comfortable and homey, it was well stocked with all the necessities. We had no problem hosting a small bbq for our friends birthday. The back patio/deck was perfect.

Nice Cottage in the Woods
We loved our stay in Yosemite. This property is well maintained and had everything we needed. We were grateful for the nice grill on the deck. It was wonderful to be surrounded by trees. Very quiet neighborhood in May!

Adorable little cabin!
Everything is brand-new inside the cabin, and obviously professionally decorated and designed for efficiency, comfort and a genuine mountain feel. It is very small, but cozy for 2 people. We did not bring our dog since the local trail (Chilnhuana Falls) does not allow dogs and there is no fenced yard or fenced deck at the cabin. The Wawona community is charming, quiet and friendly, the cabin is super-comfortable and it is conveniently located on a good-sized lot near the market and trailhead. We felt safe there even though we are too senior gals traveling alone. I should also add that the bed was very comfortable, unlike the beds at the super-expensive Ahwahnee Hotel that we had just left! Besides being clean, the cabin is very open and airy with lots of windows and 2 nice decks with views. I have stayed in lots of "funky" old cabins I didn't like, and I am picky, I should also add. A great find!

Extremely comfortable stay
Highly recommended stay while visiting Yosemite. 45 minute ride to the valley floor. Bed and linens were top shelf, very well stocked with basics, coffee, salt pepper ect. Satellite TV was a bonus as well. Strong internet. We would return!
