The small kitchenette will help you prepare your favorite meals or assemble a simple picnic lunch to bring along on your hikes. After a long outdoor adventure, come back to relax on the living room sofa before enjoying an evening out on the private covered balcony where you can take in the gorgeous views and piney aromas of the surrounding forest..

Nice Yosemite Location but Very Shabby

Great apartment for 2 people, comfortable bed, separate lounge area, small kitchen and bathroom. Read reviews about stained carpets, but was pleased to see this has been updated to laminate flooring throughout. Cleanliness was generally great, however the base mattress protector on the bed was stained and could do with cleaning/replacing. We had no cell reception in the park, so the WiFi was much appreciated and worked quite well. Apartment was well equipped with cutlery, crockery and cooking utensils, full size fridge and a small freezer, ironing board & iron, towels, TV, shampoo/conditioner, washing up supplies. Location was perfect for visiting the park. 10mins to tunnel view, and approx 30mins to Yosemite village in the valley. There are no restaurants nearby, so bring supplies or plan to eat out in the valley area. There is a kettle, microwave & grill oven, filter coffee machine in the apartment. Overall, I would recommend this place.

Property was nice. Could have been cleaned better. Some minor issues and sticky kitchen floor. The door combination lock was ridiculous. Ten-digit code really? Often took several tries even though correct code was entered.

Beware - misleading
Booked with Expedia - but listing involves Expedia, Vrbo, and Vacasa which all get $$ from you. So for problems if you talk to one they point to each other and don’t help you.

Two star stay at four star prices
Accommodations were in the wilderness. However, the room needed repair and showerhead should’ve been replaced. It did not work properly. Toilet seat was worn. It also should’ve been replaced as well as the carpet. These are an expensive changes would’ve made the stain much nicer. Also, the room face the parking area it would’ve been better face the woods for the reason stated above I cannot recommend this residence.

This condo is conveniently located between the Yosemite Valley and Mariposa Grove. It has a nice deck overlooking the wooded area and the parking lot. This condo looks as if it has not been updated since it was built. The pull out bed was so springy we could not use it. The kitchen has a refrigerator and stove that are old but usable. The tile floor has huge chunks broken. The bathroom has a tub and shower which was good. We had a 4 night stay and were only given 2 towels. The management texted to ask if we needed anything. When I asked for 2 more sets of towels this is what I was told, "Unfortunately, our housekeeping staff doesn't have any extra towels with her. The good news is, there's a coin operated laundromat on the 2nd floor of the building of the A building." When I complained enough, towels magically appeared.

Stay Elsewhere
Do not recommend. The condo was inhospitable. We wish we’d either gone camping or booked a proper hotel room. The carpet was installed improperly and staples stuck out at the wide seam next to the kitchen, so you had to be careful to step over the seam to avoid stepping on the staples. The condo also has a strong allergen that made both me and my partner sneeze a lot while in the condo and have bloody noses in the morning. No allergies elsewhere in Yosemite. It may have been from the old carpet since it didn’t look like it was replaced after last year’s wildfire. Also, the water went out on the first morning and there was a boil water notice enacted by the county. We couldn’t use the water in the condo for washing, brushing teeth, drinking, or cooking unless it was boiled. Also, the mattress was really old and so firm we couldn’t sleep well the whole time (I’m sure the allergens didn’t help, either). A total nightmare place and not relaxing. Do not recommend!

Believe the negative reviews
I am not one to write a bad review, and am typically pretty skeptical when I read negative reviews. But if you're looking to relax and get a good night's sleep after long days of exploring, this is not the place for you to stay. I'm generally very low maintenance, and I was still disappointed in this condo. You can hear absolutely everything going on in the whole complex, so we were awoken by every person coming and going at all hours. We could hear our next door neighbor snoring through the walls. The bed is VERY firm. The dishwasher is from the 80s at least and started washing at industrial levels on its own at 2:30 in the morning. The couch seemed to be falling apart. The only heater that worked was the faux fire place. They did disclose that the wifi was spotty, which is absolutely correct. There is no cell service here, and we were not able to get in with the door key code. Luckily we were able to use wifi calling to get a lock box code from customer service for the physical key, or we would not have been able to get in at all without driving somewhere to get cell service. Make sure you screen shot all of your entry instructions, because even though I was connected to wifi, it was not working well enough to get to the VRBO app or download my emails. The only thing that felt clean were the floors and linens. The dishes were grimy and limited. Again, I RARELY write negative reviews, and I do wish I would have believed some of the ones I read before booking here.

This condo is a great location for those desiring a short drive to the valley but also a get away from the busyness. It had everything we needed as we stopped to buy all supplies prior to arrival. I would book this condo again.

Schönes und sauberes Appartement mit fairem Preis
Schöne Lage im Park, nicht weit vom Glacier Point und circa 25 Minuten Fahrt ins Tal zum Yosemite Village. Die Einrichtung ist bereits etwas älter, jedoch alles vorhanden was benötigt wird und bis auf den Fernseher, den wir nicht benötigt haben, hat alles funktioniert. Das WLAN funktioniert ist jedoch aufgrund der Satelliten-Anbindung nicht das schnellste. Insgesamt eine super Unterkunft, die wir jederzeit weiter empfehlen würden.
