Great location

This property was perfectly located for our trip to Yosemite. The size of the cabin was great for our family of two adults and two kids. We would definitely book this cabin again if back in the area.

Beautiful industrial modern cabin

Second time in the Yosemite West area, which is the best place to be as a home base for Badger Pass. This place was great for 1 family, although we used it for 2 families with 3 adults and 5 kids. The finishes were beautiful, with live edge woodwork and lovely wood wrapped ceiling fans and beautiful metalwork drum pendants. There were kitchen basics such as coffee, tea, sugar and salt (much appreciated). Laundry facilities and gorgeous bathrooms with heated floors. My one critique. Scenic Wonders (the vacation home property management company) did a great job on descriptions of this property on their website, stating in BOLD multiple times that this home only has parking for 1 car in the winter. VRBO had this statement as well, but at the very bottom of the listing. I had missed it when booking through VRBO and was very nervous about not being able to park. Luckily our cars were on the smaller side and both fit in the driveway. So I will repeat: ONLY PARKING FOR ONE CAR!!!! Also, VRBO did not send me any information about how to get into the property until exactly 4pm the day of check-in. Luckily we were still 3 hours away and in cell service range but imagine if we were already in the park without range. I would’ve preferred to get my entrance information a few hours ahead. There was a lot of calling customer service while driving between. 3pm and 4pm trying to get information, and we never actually got any. Had to wait for the email to come through. So to summarize, The house was beautiful and comfortable. The property management company did a great job. VRBO could’ve been better with providing information. I would stay again, but look into maybe booking directly with the property management company if prices were comparable.

Yosemite Central

Great location, 5 of us used this house as Yosemite staging central. The location is ideal for seeing/traveling the top 10 places to visit at Yosemite National Park. Clean, convenient, comfortable and ideal for a grill master. Be sure to fuel the car and hit Costco prior to entering the park as fuel within is understandably expensive. Sunset at this house is incredible. We would rent again! Also, the rental management company was very responsive when we discovered the house was out of coffee filters.

Amazing location, beautiful property!

This property is absolutely amazing. All the comforts of home. Convenient location to getting into and out of the parks most sought after locations. Comfortable amenities in the home. The only thing, which wasn't a problem for us, but may be for others is that there is zero cell phone reception even at the residence. Very typical for National Parks! The management company was super responsive and we had everything we needed during our visit. I would also recommend getting your groceries before you arrive into the park. There are a few small spots but of course there is a premium to pay inside the park. The house has everything you need to cook, including an awesome outdoor grill. Hope you enjoy your stay!!!
