This quote is valid during all times of the day. ✦ We suggest bringing a 4x4 or chains in the winter (October-March) ✦ We are out in nature and back up to 300,000 acres of national forest, resulting in wildlife and critters that are occasionally around the property ✦ We stock firewood periodically.

There are nothing but great things to say about this house! Perfect for our group of 20 for a holiday weekend and even with a 6 month old. Would definitely stay again!

The property itself was better than I had imagined! Besides its stunning interior and multiple onsite activities, my family of 19 deeply enjoyed their time here. The space provided so much comfort and warmth, there was truly everything we needed and did not have to worry about a thing. The location was perfect if you are interested in spending time at Bass Lake or Yosemite National Park. Nicole and Cam were amazing hosts, from their friendliness and consideration to being super helpful and responsive to any questions/concerns I had. This experience was seamless and I can’t thank them enough for being such great hosts. I would love to come back and create more unforgettable memories here!

As someone who travels quite a bit for business, this home was built for comfort with a touch of luxury in the woods. Clean and comfortable! Liked that the cabinets were labeled which made it easy to find anything you may need. If you want to get away from the city and really enjoy peace and quiet this is the place to stay. I will definitely be booking again!

Cam & Nicole’s home was absolutely gorgeous. 10-12 of us went for a birthday, and it was more than enough space. Beds & couches were all notably very comfortable, and their communication was perfect. Easy communicators with an awesome home. The views were better than advertised, and the pool table room was a nice touch and a real “Wow”. Thank you!
