The nearest Airport is Yosemite International Airport, located just an hour away. There's another vacation rental on this property. If you'd like to rent both, please let us know and we'll give you a great deal on the second property! There is a Tesla EV 240 volt charging port available for guest use! First come first serve. Although there is wifi, if you plan to work during your vacation, please keep in mind that this home is located in a mountain community. The wifi speed may not be what you're used to in the city. It can be spotty and not suitable for constant Zoom meetings or high-speed streaming.

The location was beautiful, with the lake within walking distance. Upon arrival, there was some confusion as we learned we weren’t staying in the main house, rather in a converted barn. It was unclear where the entrance was, as it appeared to be French patio doors. Be advised, there’s an apartment above the unit, but there were no other guests present at the time. Once inside, the space was as expected: beautiful, cozy, and comfortable. The mini-split kept the entire area warm. We could not find the ceiling fan remotes and notified the owners, with no issues. We were also short on towels, but additional towels were eventually provided. The main issue occurred an hour before checkout when the shower drain backed up. We were unable to shower and had to take the kids to a gas station to use the restroom. We informed the owners, who promptly said they would take care of it. While we appreciated the responsiveness, we were disappointed that nothing was offered for the inconvenience.

We absolutely enjoyed this stay. It was beautiful, clean, and a spacious size for my husband and I. Definitely could bring the kiddos if you wanted to. They have a few board games, a dining table, a coffee table, and even a cute sitting area in the loft by the beds. It’s a great stay if you want to get away from city life. My advice would be to adventure out for brunch if you would like to and then keep groceries in the fridge to make dinner at the loft. Bring some games and enjoy your time. We 100% would be willing to return to this stay if we decide to revisit the location in the future.
