The Ahweanee in Foresta, Inside Yosemite National Park

We call our cabin, The Ahweanee,' because we designed it in the motif of the grand Ahwahnee Hotel, but at only 1,250 square feet of house and another 1,250 square feet of deck, it is so much smaller. Master bedroom has a queen bed plus den. There is also a sofa bed in the great room with an extra mattress for the sofa bed stored in the master closet.

Good location: within Yosemite but away from the crowds and, therefore, peaceful and quiet. The house appearance, outside and in, was outstanding. Immediately comfortable.

Lovely & Well Located
This property was perfect for our stay. Our activities were off site all day so we were there for breakfast, dinner, card games, and sleep. It was clean. Well stocked. Property owner was responsive. Everything worked well except the hot tub which took a long time to fill and heat, making it not useful when we needed it most after the first day of hiking. I’d happily stay here again!

Weekend getaway
Spent 4 days here as a base camp for hiking, climbing and fishing in Yosemite Valley and Tuolomne Meadows. You can’t ask for a better location! 15 min to the Valley and 1 hr to the Meadows. Quiet location. Well equipped house with just about everything you need. Owner was polite and communicated well throughout the process. We plan on staying there again.

Cozy, comfy, and spacious getaway.
We had a most wonderful stay. The home had everything we needed. We will come again next year. The happy cabin was our get away but also home base for our adventures. Half Dome, Tanaya Lake, Tuolumne Meadows and Redwood Grove. The cabin's location was peaceful and serene and conveniently close to the Yosemite Valley.

Great peaceful house close to park!
It was so great to stay at this wonderful house and only have to drive about 25 minutes to Yosemite Valley! We bought all our groceries at Pioneer Market in Mariposa and cooked all meals except one with a well stocked kitchen. We also especially loved opening the glass “wall” every evening to enjoy the outdoors . We could not have asked for a better place for the 4 of us to stay!

Beautiful location!
Staying in Yosemite and close to the valley (25 min) makes the trip so much more enjoyable. We could get anywhere within the park in about an hour and avoided the long entrance lines. There was also a lot of wildlife off the deck which we loved seeing. Unit is very clean and owners are very responsive. We would definitely recommend!

Great Cabin, Great Location
Cabin is in the park. Don’t have to deal with the long lines at the entry everyday. Quiet and secluded. Star show every night. Kitchen is well furnished.
