Perfect place to stay in Yosemite! Stayed in the larger unit last year, which is roomier with a large kitchen. Since it was already booked 8 months in advance, we rented the smaller place which is a decent sized studio. Feels like a large hotel room, but is very comfortable and convenient, especially if you don’t plan on cooking much. We used the outdoor grill and it was great. Good ac, quiet.

Disliked: Amenities
This was a simple cabin in the woods. Warning: a lot of information in the ad is incorrect. The property is 25 minutes from Yosemite Valley. Many of the amenities listed were NOT provided (no Mountain View, shampoo, coffee grinder, electric kettle, bowls). The wi-fi did not always work and is very slow when it does. The electricity was out for 12 hours which meant additionally no water or gas. Communication with the owner during this time was minimal and there was no offer of compensation or assistance provided. A more accurate description would have gone a long way to manage expectations.

Great Location Inside The Park

This property was as advertised. There was easy access to all areas of the park. No waiting in line each day to enter the park. It was hot when we visited so it was nice to have an air conditioned cabin to come back to.

Loved this Cabin 20 min. From Yosemite Valley!

This cabin felt about as close as you could stay in Yosemite Valley (unless you’re paying to stay in the lodges or camping). The proximity made it simpler to get to all of the nearby hikes and eateries in the valley. The cabin itself was perfect for our needs and we didn’t have any issues. It’s great for 1-2 adults! The manager, Annie, was amazing! She communicated with us every step of the way. Highly recommend!

Perfect little cabin

The place was perfect for what we needed. We did a lot hiking and exploring so this gave us a great place to come back and relax to. It was quiet and away from the crowds. The shower has amazing pressure but make sure you close the bottom all the way to keep water from leaking out. Highly recommend.

The cabin is truly in the perfect location to access all that Yosemite National Park has to offer. The hosts offered clear directions and good communication. The amenities are OK - no shampoo etc. Would recommend for a weekend or a few nights if your plan is to be out and about in the park! 8/10

Shady Grove Cabin

My daughter and I stayed there and loved it! We can't wait to return, perhaps this Autumn. It was a joy to experience the beauty of Yosemite and to leave the crowds behind at the end of the day and return to this charming cabin. The peace and quiet there were wonderful. It was comfortable and well stocked with cooking pots and pans, dishes, etc. Our overall experience was a 10!
