House in Yosemite Forks, CA
Reasons to book
About this house rental
Welcome to Casa Rio, a peaceful mountain retreat in Oakhurst, California — just a short drive to Yosemite’s South Entrance, Bass Lake, Mariposa Grove, restaurants, groceries, and local attractions. Designed for families and groups, Casa Rio gives you the space to gather, relax, work remotely, and enjoy the Sierra foothills in comfort.
Whether you are planning a Yosemite adventure, a Bass Lake getaway, a family reunion, or a quiet mountain escape, Casa Rio is set up for memorable stays with spacious bedrooms, reliable Starlink Wi-Fi, outdoor gathering areas, and relaxing amenities after a day of exploring.
My wife and I designed Casa Rio with the same care and attention we put into our other family retreats. Every space was created to feel warm, comfortable, and practical — with room to come together and enough privacy to unwind.
