The spacious kitchen is equipped with all the basic cookware and serving ware to prepare a delicious meal.  You will appreciate the dining area with a solid wood table and hand-carved chairs. Enjoy your morning coffee on the deck while watch the wildlife go about their day. If you are in the mood for BBQ, make use of our gas grill on the back deck. There are two ultra cozy bedrooms each with hand carved log beds. Bedroom 1 had a king size bed. The second bedroom with queen bunk bed and an en suite half bathroom. We have an extra long twin fold up bed located in the king bedroom closet which can be set up in one of the bedrooms or the living room - just let us know and we will set it out for you wherever you like. In the living room, warm up during the winter months with the wood-burning stove or kick back and watch television with the family. With the “Smart TV”, stream Netflix, Hulu, YouTube or Amazon Prime. After a long day of fun-filled activities, soak in the hot tub and let your body relax and rejuvenate. The hot tub is cleaned and maintained before/after each set of guests. Guest access Self check in by accessing a key from the lockbox. You will be provided a lockbox code found in the welcome letter. There is ample parking on the driveway for up to five cars. Interaction with guests: We are happy to answer any questions and stop by, if needed. We are available through VRBO messaging, cell phone and text at any time of day - preferably not between the times 10 pm - 6 am :) Other things to note: We are happy to provide pet friendly accommodations! We allow house-trained dogs, but with some rules. First, it’s an extra $50 per pet for the stay. Further, we reserve the right to charge for any damage caused by the dog. Second, please keep your dog in a crate if you leave the dog alone in the house for an extended period of time to avoid accidents in the house. We do not provide dog crates so please bring your own - along with a nice blanket and toys :) Third, please clean up all dog waste in the yard. We do not supply poopbags, so please have your own supply. Neighborhood overview Conveniently located in between two entrances into Yosemite National Park - both 50 minute drives. 20 minutes to the historic town of Mariposa and 30 minutes to Oakhurst. Our neighbors are friendly and enjoy the serenity of the area. So please respect the essence of the woods and keep the noise down after dark. ## Property amenities ### Ski - Cross-country skiing nearby ### Pool/Spa - Hot tub ### Internet - Available in the house: WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Car required - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Electric kettle - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Stovetop - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 2 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1.5 bathrooms - Hair dryer - Shampoo - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Fireplace - Living room - Wood stove ### Entertainment - Books - DVD player - Games - Music library - Smart TV with cable/satellite channels - Stereo - Video library ### Outdoor areas - Garden - Gas grill - Patio ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoking not allowed - Note from host: You can smoke outside ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board - Phone ### Location highlights - Near a health/beauty spa ### Things to do - Boat - Golf - Kayak - Snow sports gear - Birdwatching nearby - Casino nearby - Fishing nearby - Golfing nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Horseback riding nearby - Hunting nearby - Jet skiing nearby - Kayaking nearby - Mountain biking nearby - Mountain climbing nearby - Rafting nearby - Rock climbing nearby - Sailing nearby - Swimming nearby - Water tubing nearby - Wildlife walks nearby - Winery tours nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property; consider bringing a portable detector) - Smoke detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a smoke detector on the property) ### General - Garden - Unit size: 1,650 square feet ## Similar properties ![Outdoor spa tub](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/39000000/38290000/38284500/38284495/83bb8487.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### The Retreat@Lakeside Hot Tub/Views/Carbon Neutral/Fast WiFi Near Yosemite!
