About the Area
Nestled just 4 miles inside the southern entrance of Yosemite National Park is the charming and historic town of Wawona. Located at the base of Chilnualna Falls (the second-highest vertical drop waterfall in Yosemite) and home to the principal trailheads into the southern Yosemite wilderness, Wawona is also the closest town to the Mariposa Grove of Giant Sequoias.
Wawona has the feel of a small town but is bustling with activity! Over 160 residents, including Yosemite Park employees, live in Wawona and can be seen gathering at the town's community center, playing a pickup game of basketball at the elementary school, jogging on one of the many picturesque trails, or simply walking their dogs and baby strollers through the winding residential streets. The historic Wawona Swinging Bridge boasts the best natural water slide in the Park! The historic village is filled with docents, stagecoach rides, horseback rides, and barn dances in the summer season, and the Wawona Meadow Loop offers year-round riparian meadow wildlife viewing.
Wawona was known to the local Native American Miwok in their language as Pallachun (a good place to stay). It is located entirely within Yosemite National Park (it preceded the founding of the park as a national recreation area) and is located on the South Fork of the wild and scenic Merced River, on the main highway (State Route 41) from Fresno to Yosemite Valley.
Galen Clark, who helped gain preservation legislation for Mariposa Grove and what later became part of Yosemite National Park, occupied the Wawona area in 1855 and established a tourist rest and modest ranch, which he later sold and made into a hotel and resort property (the Wawona Hotel). The Wawona post office was established in 1878 and was originally called Clark's Station.
The Redwoods in Yosemite has over 110 vacation rental homes and is proud to say that all of them are located in Wawona. All are within walking distance of everything that Wawona has to offer, and every one of them is surrounded by the majesty of Yosemite National Park

The cabin is indeed very small but perfect for a short stay. There were lot of ants in the kitchen and bathroom and they do bite; and needed a comforter for the sofa bed. Other than that it was cozy, very safe and comfortable.

Check in and out was easy. The people were helpful and friendly. The cottage had all the amenities you would need. A little market is located close incase you need something. Parking was right outside the door.
6 / 10Average·May 2026
There was an ant problem in the kitchen and bathroom that was difficult for us. We notified the property manager and they promptly sent maintenance to set ant baits in both areas. However, it takes several days to eliminate the ants. Therefore, we still had some ants when we checked out. We know ants are a problem in many homes, but we found it hard to prepare food on the counters in the kitchen, and we couldn’t set anything on the bathroom vanity. It detracted from our stay. The outside deck was beautiful and the cabin was clean.
