🌳Outdoor Space:
The house is on just about 8 acres of land. There is a workshop and another house on the property both a few hundred feet away. They are both out of sight and very private from the house you will be staying in. You are allowed to explore the whole 8 acres as long as you do not bother the tenants in the other house. We have a private hot tub along with a BBQ for you to show off your grilling skills! The property is unfenced and an abundance of wildlife pass through. Please keep an eye on your pets!

🐶 Pets:
We love pets and allow them at no extra charge! However, we have a strict rule that pets must be kept off of all furniture and that any accidents be cleaned up immediately. Any pet related cleaning and damages, including fur removal, may incur extra charges. Please also keep pets on leash due to abundant wildlife!

🅿️Parking:
We have a long gravel driveway leading up to the house. Don`t worry, any car is capable of making it! Parking is outdoors on the driveway and it can accommodate 4 cars.

Other things to note:

Please remember to make appropriate reservations to enter Yosemite National Park
We do not accept cancellations due to normal weather events such as storms or smoke caused by wildfires. Airbnb may allow cancellation but only after a government issued statement.
The community draws water from a well that is rich in natural minerals which may occasionally leave spots on utensils and sink/shower handles. However, you can rest assured knowing that our professional cleaning crew thoroughly sanitizes the home in between each stay.

Have a larger group? We also have a large geodesic dome in Coarsegold( about 20 minutes away)! Please check out our other listings to accommodate larger groups and also for a very unique stay!

This property is on 8 acres of land. There is a workshop in the center and another tenant occupied house on the other end. Both of these structures are very far from this house, so you will have plenty of privacy. You are welcome to explore all 8 acres, but please do not disturb the permanent tenants or workshop.

The roads on the property are gravel, but all cars can make it.

You must go up 5 stairs to the deck to get to the front door. Therefore, this house is not wheelchair friendly.

Pets are allowed! However, we ask that pets are kept off of all furniture and that you clean up after them. Additional cleaning fees will be charged for pet related cleaning, including fur.

*Please remember to check if Yosemite and other attractions need reservations. Most reservations will fall during the summer and holiday weekends throughout the year

Please reach out to your hosts Russell and Alana via the app or our phone numbers in our welcome message for any questions.

Quiet rural neighborhood with occasional wildlife. We don`t have fences so please keep your pets on leash!

We are in the mountains on an unfenced property with abundant wildlife. Do not be alarmed if you see wildlife on the property. That being said, please keep pets close at all times and on leash!

Worked well for us! Could use some TLC here and there (missing cabinets, gaps in floorboards, etc) but as a home base for a Yosemite trip it was nice. It’s about 1.5 hours to Yosemite Valley, beautiful drive.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Russell’s house! There were 6 adults in our party and we loved that the home was close to the South End entrance to Yosemite, as well as close proximity to groceries and restaurants. The listing is accurate with 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms and also had a well stocked kitchen. The bed in the master bedroom was very comfortable. Instructions for the house were very easy and Russell was very responsive to any questions we had. The best part was enjoying the hot tub after hiking all over Yosemite for a day! We would definitely recommend this home to family or friends!

I loved to come back again and really safe, everything was so close to this property.
6.0 / 10.0Average·Jul 2023
This was in a great location to get to and from Yosemite and other neighborhoods, but the house and property were much different for us than the photos showed. The space is much smaller than it appears and there was no grass on the property. Everything was overgrown with foxtails, making it unsafe for our small children and dogs to run around freely. This was one of the reasons we chose this house so it was rather disappointing. Due to their cleaning company being busy that week, the house was not properly cleaned before our stay. The floors were very dirty, which ultimately resulted in our toddler getting sick to which I finally cleaned the floors with a swiffer myself. The water pressure in the kitchen was nonexistent so doing the dishes was quite the chore. There was also an ant problem that persisted during our entire stay, regardless of keeping the areas clean. Our host did refund part of our cleaning deposit, which we really appreciated but for the amount of money we paid for this house it was a disappointing experience for our family reunion. For low maintenance guests, it's probably perfect but we had small children and dogs to look after. One other thing to note is that the AC vents are on the floor and cooling the house down took several hours due to the heat.
