Get ready to make magical memories to last a lifetime here at this stunning Yosemite house, boasting a million-dollar view of Lower Yosemite Canyon and Cascade Falls. You'll love having your own quiet setting that backs to the wilderness while you enjoy the propane firepit, wraparound decks, and red cedar panoramic view barrel sauna. Located in Yosemite National Park, you'll have prime access to all the park offers, including world-famous rock faces, endless hiking trails, and waterfalls. Yosemite West vacation rentals allow for Yosemite Park admission without an advance park reservation. It's only 12 miles to Yosemite Valley sites, including Bridalveil Falls, Yosemite Falls, El Cap Meadows, and numerous iconic trailheads. Don't miss out on picnicking at Tenaya Lake when you need a quiet moment, or hike up to Glacier Point for some of the most breathtaking scenery. When it parks to home base, this getaway sits in Yosemite West, a private community of resort properties that offer rustic living at its best. You will also be less than eight miles from the Badger Pass Ski Area.

At home, you'll appreciate a flat driveway with no steps to access the house.

Inside, large windows help you enjoy the view from the primary bedroom, dining area, and great room. Admire the warm sunrise view through a picturesque cedar and black oak grove, and take in the spectacular sunset view that's framed by mature sugar pine and their massive two-foot-long pinecones.

After full days of endless adventure, lounge on the sofa or recliner and enjoy access to your favorite TV shows from the TV. There are Amazon Firesticks available for each TV. At night, curl up in front of the fireplace and crack open that book you've been meaning to read for months.

A cozy sunroom provides an entirely separate space for work or play. High-speed Starlink internet ensures the best internet service in Yosemite West. When the group gets hungry, a well-equipped kitchen with a large refrigerator is available for cooking tasks. There are outdoor and indoor dining tables. Everyone will love to head out to the wraparound decks and enjoy breathtaking mountainous landscape and starry night sky views! A propane grill and barbecue tools make cooking out a breeze.

This is a highly sought-after retreat, so book your stay at Yosemite View Retreat while it lasts!

Birthday family adventure
The house had everything we needed for our family group of 7. We cooked our meals, spent evenings on the deck making smores in the fire pit and drove to yosemite valley and wawona for hikes each day ( about 30 minutes to each). We also loved peaceful mornings on the deck! We would come back again!

This was a wonderful cabin in Yosemite! The views around the property were gorgeous! The sauna was so special. Clean. Cozy fire. Nice big dining room table for our family of 7. Just a note that the master bedroom upstairs shares a Jack and Jill bathroom with one other room. Showers were a bit tricky, but there was another shower downstairs. It snowed one night we were there and was gorgeous the next morning! Thankfully we brought chains because our mini van couldn’t make it up one of the streets there as we were leaving to get to the valley, so if you travel here during snow season make sure to bring chains. We left a very important item there and thankfully they were able to return it to us. Would definitely recommend this property.

Wonderful retreat in the perfect location
We loved out time at this retreat house. It was so peaceful and the view was stunning. The location was wonderful, near enough to drive to good walks but far enough to feel secluded and away from tourists. The house had everything we needed. The hammock on the balcony was a treat! The beds were so comfortable. We didn't want to leave. Would come back in a heartbeat.

Family time at its best
Clearing off the obvious initially: Cleanliness - spotless, Accuracy - perfect, Location - right in the park so could not be better. We loved this house for my two elderly parents, my 2-year-old and my wife. Houe is not too big and not too small, just enough and cozy. The park provides enough things to do, and the house provides enough bonding time with the family. The kitchen is very well stocked but get enough supplies to be able to take advantage of it. Get ready to leave your electronic connections away and spend time with what is important in life.

Great West Yosemite house
If you want easy access to Yosemite valley floor Yosemite West is the place to be. This house is approximately 25 to 30 minutes to the Yosemite valley floor. The owners have set up the house with everything that you’ll need. From kitchen gear to other household supplies, and even sleds, it is all provided. It’s more like staying at a friends or family members house rather than your normal VRBO rental. The owners reached out before and during our stay to ensure that we had everything we needed. The wifi is better than other Yosemite houses we have stayed at, though still mountain wifi. Do know that the three upstairs bedrooms share one bathroom (jack n jill bathroom between master and queen bedroom). The second full bathroom is downstairs. Also there’s no access to a washer/dryer if that’s important. Beyond that we highly recommend this house, owner, and location for your next Yosemite trip

Beautiful updated cabin in Yosemite
Really nice updated cabin. I had one simple request and they were accommodating. What I appreciated the most was the request to remove shoes in the mud room. Maybe not all guests do this but it sure seemed that for the most part they do. It gives that home feeling. Everything was really nice and clean.

Too Awesome
This home was the perfect fit for our needs and the size of our party of five. We came to hike and view the awesomeness that is Yosemite. At night we returned to cook dinner, relax and enjoy the sunsets and the stars from the porch. Wow! Eating breakfast on the porch and watching doe mule deer and their fawns walk across the property in front of us was a blast. Very comfortable beds and linens. More towels than you find in hotels. The kitchen had everything we needed. The house was immaculate. The air conditioning is a major plus in the summer when more westerly faced homes can be very hot, especially if they do not have AC. We thank Jeff, Melissa and the Karapetian family for their hospitality and warm communications. We have become frequent visitors to Yosemite. We would not hesitate to book again.

Wonderful Getaway
The location of this property is great for seeing all parts of the park. Inside, the house is lovely and one of the most well-stocked rental homes we’ve ever used. I really had no need to communicate with the managers, so that’s the only element I can’t really evaluate. The info about cell service was right, though. There’s no reception for AT&T in the area. It’s good to be aware of that going in.

Best VRBO ever! We would come again in a heartbeat.
We loved this place! Great location with easy central access to the Valley, Glacier Point and Mariposa. While unassuming on the outside - it is beautifully decorated inside, well-kept, well-stocked in all bathrooms and kitchen supplies fabulous. Every time we needed an extra stock item, we would find it in the pantry! They made renting easy and feel like home. Beds very comfy. Living area is spacious (we had 7 adults and felt very comfortable). Wrap around back deck is great for morning coffee and evening sunsets with a glimpse of the impressive valley below. Easy check-in and check-out process. Great communication by property managers throughout booking and stay.

Perfect Location, Wonderful Home!
Everything about the home was excellent! It had all we needed for a quick four-night mini-vacation. From the deck overlooking the valley we saw several deer, a bear, multiple squirrels and birds. Gazing at the stars at night was unbelievable! Something I miss now that I'm living in the city. My two grandsons (ages 8 and 2) had a great time, enjoying the hikes and an introduction to nature. The house was extremely clean and had everything we needed. We hope to visit again!

Deck clinched it for me. Great stay.
I highly recommend this property. Quiet neighborhood is not IN the valley, but a great location in the park. My daughter gave us the big bedroom with the view. Clean, well equipped, with many delightful touches such as stacks of fluffy white towels, plentiful nice soaps, deck chair cushions. Kitchen had everything we needed. Good communication with managers. Deck view across a valley looked north providing some sunset colors. A deer walking down the road greeted us and a young bear looking for a trashcan snack at the neighbors' was our goodbye.

House in the woods
My family spent almost a week at the house, and every day the view from the balcony was more awe inspiring than the day before. The sunsets were especially beautiful. The house had everything we needed. It was modernized and very clean. The neighborhood was quiet and easy to stroll about. The location was ideal in that it was halfway between the park entrance and the Yosemite valley. We would stay there again.
