"Can’t beat the convenience of the location. The room wasn’t super clean, there was a dirty old sock under one of the beds and the floor in the tent was very dirty. The bathrooms are also very small and got hot and humid quickly if more than one person was showering. Overall would still recommend because of the location."

Storybook Chalet inside Yosemite National Park

Storybook Chalet inside Yosemite National Park

10/10 Excellent
"Our family really enjoyed our recent stay at the chalet. The place was just what we needed to relax after days of exploring the park’s beauty. Comfy beds, super clean hot tub, well stocked kitchen, cozy wood stove and plenty of seating options all helped our family hang out comfortably. Communication via the site as well as on Facebook was wonderful, especially given the uncertainty of the recent wildfire. Also want to point out that there is a nice trail that runs behind the house to a lookout area where we could see the helicopters dropping the water on the fire from a distance yet we were far enough not to be impacted. Highly recommend this rental!"
