We are located just south of Yosemite National Park and our prices before Memorial Day are economical especially considering we can sleep up to 10.

You can study the gold rush era, John Muir, the Ahwaneechee Native Americans, the climate, various rock formations and waterfalls! So many things to explore!

You can avoid paying additional AirBnB taxes by booking direct. Feel free to message me with any questions at all.
