Skyline Retreat

This three bedroom, two bath duplex home sleeps 10 comfortably. This property offers a great economical way for family and friends to experience Yosemite. With newly updated bathrooms, fully equipped kitchen and a dining area that seats six, perfect for small family gatherings. This home also features a wood-burning stove in the living room, firewood supplied. In the upstairs media room, you'll find a 55" LED TV with Blue-ray disk player, card/chess/checkers table, for hours of fun with the kids. The first floor has 2 bedrooms, each with one queen bed. The upstairs bedroom has two queen beds and the media room that has a twin day bed with trundle and a queen sofa bed, perfect for the kids. We do not recommend sofa beds for adults, they are only acceptable for small children, they are uncomfortable for adults, so we will not guarantee a good night's rest on them. Built for the young at heart, after climbing approximately fifty stairs, you will arrive at the front door of your Skyline Retreat, well worth the climb!

Great location between north and south

Property was clean and well stocked. Upstairs shower didn’t work well. Could’ve had some games but overall it was a great place and we would stay there again.

Amazing Cabin for a Woodsy Weekend

This place was great for a nature retreat and loved the cabin feel. My only recommendation would be for it to have Wifi (for safety reasons), we stayed here during some bad forest fires near Yosemite and because there is very little service, being notified of evacuation or other hazards would not be possible.

Weekend getaway

This place was super cute and in a nice location just 20-30 minutes from the valley. Great views from the deck. The downfall was we found multiple mice during our stay. We caught a couple and let them out but there were far too many to count….kind of nervous while sleeping. Other than that is was clean and a cute cabin.

Good but..

It was a nice cabin but there were some problems. Upstairs there was a nail sticking out in the game room and one of the small kids got hurt we had to cover it with the table leg. Mice got in and ate some of our food also some of the pans were dirty. The game room also creeked a lot and those on the bottom had trouble sleeping.

Nice cabin within the park boundaries

Very nice cabin with three separate bedrooms, comfortably fit our two families - 4 adults and 5 kids. Great location at the beginning of Yosemite West so you don't have to drive too far. There's quite a number of stairs to get to the house which is properly marked in the description. There could have been more spare towels and toiletries provided.

Home Away From Home

This cozy cabin in Yosemite West is only 35 minutes drive to Yosemite Village! The Kitchen is well equipped. We liked the extra sinks in the 2 downstairs bedrooms.

Great rustic cabin inside Yosemite!

This is a great cabin to stay in. There was 5 of us staying two nights (2adults/3boys) and we all had plenty of room to have dinner together and have some privacy. If you’re expecting new/luxury accommodations for the price and location, please don’t leave a bad review. This place is older, but very clean and the owners have kept it in good conditions. Also, the owners were very helpful with any questions we had - they even unlocked the lower room to let us use the washer and dryer. We LOOOOVED Yosemite! We would stay here over and over too. Nice house, nice location, nice owners.

The basics only

Home was clean. Laundry is not available but Mgmt did come by to unlock. Kitchen accessories are bare bones so think details when you stay.

Perfect Location - Minutes from Glacier Point turn off

We had a wonderful time! The location was ideal! No waiting in long lines to enter the park! There was plenty of room for 2 families with teenagers. We stuck the kids upstairs and adults down stairs. Thoroughly enjoyed the deck- ate every meal outside. Nice size kitchen. Worth the hike up the stairs- very neat and clean.
