Cabin in Wawona

A group of high school friends, now in our 60s, stayed for 3 nights at the cabin. The location was excellent, with a village store right down the street, some hiking trails close by, and the Giant Sequoia Grove a short drive. The cabin was well furnished and we had all we needed there. It was about a 45 minute drive to Yosemite village.

Alpine Paradise stay

Our family stayed at the home for a summer visit to Yosemite. It is was adequate and comfortable for our group. We didn’t spend a lot of time in the cabin because we were out doing activities. The location is convenient to a lot of the park (about and hour from Yosemite Valley). Overall it was a good stay, and we didn’t have any problems with the house.

About the host

Hosted by Daniel Wolfus

Why they chose this property

We purchased this home many years ago. It has been a great family get away in a unique location inside of Yosemite National Park.

What makes this property unique

My property is available from Jul 2, 2015 - Jul 6, 2015. The house is inside the park and very centrally located to all the areas of interest. It is a block from the South Fork of the Merced river, 30 minutes from Yosemite Valley, 20 minutes from El Capitan, 45 minutes from Glacier Point and a mile from the Historic Pioneer Center. The spectacular Mariposa Grove of giant sequoias is also 15 minutes from our house. The wonderful location of this home inside Yosemite National Park adds a special feeling to this charming home. The home is close to the Big Trees Hotel, restaurant and golf course and has the added advantage that you only enter through the Park gates once and then you are inside the Park for your whole visit.
