About this property

Some great features of this private, comfortable cabin include:

-Hot tub usable and serviced year round
-Personal thermostats in each bedroom
-Complete privacy (only one other cabin in sight, and it is vacant)
-Fully stocked kitchen to cook all of your meals
-3 gorgeous bathrooms
-BBQ Grill on the deck (tank of propane provided)
-Bass Lake is 21 miles and Oakhurst is 25 miles from this home.

Bedding/Bath Configuration is as follows:
1st floor- Master- One King Bed w/ en suite Bathroom #1
1st floor- Bedroom #2- One King Bed
1st floor- Bathroom #2 in hallway
2nd floor- Bedroom #3- One Queen Bed
2nd floor- Loft- Four Twin Beds
2nd floor- Bathroom #3 next to loft and bedroom

Plenty of deck space to sit and enjoy your morning coffee, enough parking for up to 5 cars, and conveniently located near all the attractions of Wawona. This cabin will be one you won't forget anytime soon.

The cabin includes Verizon home internet. In addition to the Verizon home internet, we have a Verizon mobile hotspot as a backup. Wifi overall works great for basic internet browsing and some streaming. However, if multiple devices are constantly running, it may slowdown (this is very common at most places with Wifi in our area).

Rental Agreement- Immediately after booking, the rental agreement displayed at checkout will be sent to you via text and email for E-signing. Kindly E-sign this within 48 hours to finalize your reservation. You will also need to upload a photo of the ID associated with the credit card on file. This is solely for fraud protection purposes. E-signing allows you to go straight to the property upon your arrival, instead of coming to our office to sign and get a key!

Welcome Guide - One week prior to arrival, we will text you a link to an online welcome guide. It will have your special door code, address, items provided, and much more!

Access to Yosemite and Nearby Attractions- Yosemite National Park, like many others across the United States, has implemented a reservation system in recent years to manage visitor numbers effectively. Since this home is located INSIDE Yosemite National Park, you will NOT NEED a separate entrance reservation, only proof of your lodging reservation (please see official park website for details). We highly recommend that visitors planning a trip to Yosemite stay informed by regularly checking the National Parks websites and affiliated sources for any updates regarding the reservation system. While we strive to provide our guests with an exceptional experience, it's important to note that access to Yosemite or nearby attractions cannot be guaranteed, especially during peak seasons. By staying informed and flexible, visitors can better navigate their travel plans and make the most out of their trip to this beautiful region.

Kitchen- The kitchen is stocked with pots, pans, cookware, cups, silverware, and more! Our housekeeping team leaves out salt, pepper, and a can of cooking spray. Friends, family, and other guests sometimes leave spices, aluminum foil or ziploc bags at the home. You are most welcome to use any of these items, but if something is particularly crucial to the success of your meals, we do recommend bringing it along with you.

Linens- Our vacation homes are some of the few in the Yosemite area to use professionally laundered linens. All linens are professionally serviced for each and every reservation. The linens are washed in commercial grade washers with stronger hypoallergenic detergent than you would find in a residential washer. All linens are then pressed with an iron at 300° F, vs. a standard home dryer that only reaches 160°. You are not likely to find this level of service in other vacation homes.

Please note: Indoor fireplaces AND outdoor fire pits are NOT allowed during county-wide burn bans, which often occur in the summer and fall months. This is due to heightened fire risk in the area at those times. Outdoor BBQ grills and propane fire pits are allowed year-round.

Hot Tub- There is no lifeguard on duty for the hot tub. Please use at your own risk. We kindly ask that you shower prior to entering the hot tub.

No Pets - Thank you for helping us protect those with pet allergies.

There is parking for 4 cars. Many of the local roads are privately owned and privately maintained. We appreciate you not exceeding the maximum parking limit.

Early check-in and late checkouts are usually unavailable. This includes luggage and grocery drop-offs. Please kindly plan your grocery shopping/traveling around the 4 PM check-in time (you can check in after that as late as you would like). If you need to check in early or check out late, we strongly recommend booking an additional night on the front end or back end of your stay. This will allow you to check in as early or check out as late as you need. Most homes up here have a 10AM checkout. We do 11AM to give you extra time. Our housekeepers and cleaning inspectors work all over the mountains, and timing is usually tight.

Occupancy- Maximum occupancy of 10 guests regardless of age. Infants are included in the total. This is strictly enforced. No having events/weddings/large dinner gatherings/guests over just to visit. This is a local zoning rule that is enforced inside Yosemite National Park. There are no exceptions.

Garbage- Garbage truck service is not available in this area. Yosemite Park requires visitors to "pack out" their garbage. There are several free bear proof dumpsters within walking distance of the cabin where you can dispose of your garbage. We have directions inside the welcome binder in the cabin!

Security Cameras- There are external only cameras on the premises that face certain entrance points of the home.

Chains- This property is located inside Yosemite National Park at an elevation of 4000 feet. Snow can often be expected from the late fall to the spring. California Highway Patrol and the National Parks Service may require chains and/or 4 wheel drive with snow tires in wintery/snowy/icy conditions. Please ensure you are bringing a vehicle and necessary equipment capable of navigating in these conditions.

No Smoking- The Smoke Remediation Fee will be a minimum of $500 for smoking in the house and could be higher depending on the extent of the damage.

Insurance- Travel Insurance is provided as an option during the checkout process. Please note that as hosts, we cannot protect your trip from flight delays, illnesses, weather, job loss, or other circumstances that may prevent you from making your trip. We truly wish we could! We STRONGLY suggest purchasing some type of Travel Insurance so that you may protect your vacation investment from unforeseen circumstances that may prevent you from making your trip. It's a nominal cost that can absolutely pay off!

Mail- Due to locked neighborhood mailboxes, we ask you not mail anything to the property. You are most welcome to mail items to our office (Love Yosemite! Vacation Rentals) in Oakhurst. Please reach out to us to make arrangements.

Calling Us - After booking, you are always welcome to call us at our main phone number, 24/7. That number does not receive text messages, but you will receive a text from us after booking and you can respond to that text thread any time you like. We check text messages regularly during the day and early evening.

Please note this property is nestled in the breathtaking Sierra Nevada Mountain Range, offering a serene escape into nature. However, being in such a pristine environment means that you may occasionally encounter some of nature's residents, such as ants, spiders, insects, mice, and cobwebs. We take every precaution, including regularly scheduled professional pest control to minimize these occurrences, but they are a natural part of the mountain experience and may get past our defenses from time to time. If you do notice any of this during your stay, please let us know so we can promptly address them and ensure your comfort.

Neighbors- Please do not trespass on the neighboring properties. We appreciate you respecting the local neighborhood!

Internet- Peer-to-peer (for example bit torrent) and downloads of copyrighted and illegal material are strictly forbidden by United States law and our internet provider actively monitor these activities. Guests are fully responsible for any illegal uploading or downloading of content and for other illegal activities. By agreeing to the House Rules, you agree to not perform any illegal activities using the home`s internet connection. Any copyright infringement by guest is subject to release of guests information to copyright holder.

Simple Checkout Instructions-
1. Check out time is 11:00am, not 10am like most vacation homes up here!
2. No need to wash any sheets or towels, they're all professionally serviced off-site.
3. If you have time to start the dishwasher, that would be helpful.
4. Yosemite National Park requires visitors to "pack out" their garbage. For your convenience, the park has placed several free, bear proof dumpsters in the Wawona area!
5. Most importantly, please return any furniture you may have moved during your stay.
P.S. Don't forget to get a last minute photo or two with your family and friends before leaving!

Great base camp for Yosemite!

The house was perfect for our family. We had 3 generations and pleanty of space. It was great to watch the kids play outside in the snow. It was perfect for visiting Yosemite without actually having to stay in the valley with all of the people!

Awesome getaway inside the Yosemite South Gate

Overall wonderful stay at 3 Springs Hideout. There were 8 people in our party (4 adults and 4 children) and the house was very comfortable. We all enjoyed the hot tub and fire pit and the kids loved the creek right behind the house.

Fantastic

We have been coming to Wawona for years, as we enjoy the peace and quiet of it much more than Yosemite West. This was the 3rd cabin we have rented and it was by far the best. The privacy, cleanliness, hot tub, and surroundings made for a fantastic place to come back to after exploring all day. Will be making this place our annual Wawona cabin.

5 Star Stay

Lovely stay. Our family of 10 had plenty of room to enjoy Yosemite. It was well equipped with everything we needed. We used the hot tub after long hikes and watched the stars. We also sat around the fire and had lots of relaxation. When we called the office, we were given quick responses to our concerns (if high chair and pack n play were available) and recommendations on what activities we'd enjoy. Overall, this was a great stay and I'd recommend the cabin to friends and family.

Beautiful Property Inside the Park

This house is perfect. Beautifully renovated bathrooms, comfortable furniture, hot tub and plenty of parking. You are at the southern end of the park so most trips to sites are about an hour. However, we loved the seclusion and quiet surroundings. Everything we wanted!!

Wonderful Stay

This cabin will forever be a part of the happy memories of my family. Well-appointed cabin, where it feels like the owners care and have thought of all of the details. Internet was an oasis in a park where cell service was unpredictable. Hot tub was clean and using it among the beauty of the grounds was almost surreal. Professionally maintained and easy checkout process. It was great being in the park to avoid lines to check in. Read owners welcome guide, make sure to take photos of important things such as map/directions and door code, as cell phone service will not allow you to access at cabin. Highly recommended for a home base in Yosemite. Would not stay anywhere else.

Very nice, well equipped cabin. Some unexpected amenities provided - Coffee & creamer in the refrigerator. The 4 of us had LOTS of room. The setting was so Beautiful and Quiet. The only issue was the little bridge had some deep ruts and we high centered every crossing. Otherwise, we all enjoyed our stay and thank you so much for sharing your vacation cabin.

Yosemite NP South Entrance access

We chose the Wawona area as gave access to both Yosemite NP primarily and possibly Sequoia NP if we wish during our recent visit. Location worked out great. Several activities inclcuing hikes and points of interest such as Mariposa Grove very close by. by for us plus easy, scenic drive to Yosemite Valley area. 3 hours to Sequoia NP we managed to take in also. Home was very well organized, well stock with the amenities we needed. Great open space - tables - seating for us to use including terrific, new outdoor grill for our group meals. Two king and one queen size beds for our adult group and 3 baths were great for our 3 adult couple group size. Overall home worked great for us.

Great location, property needs some TLC

Great location and property managers were good. Issues were: 3 out of 4 air conditioners were not working for a couple of days. Floors were absolutely filthy, we had to buy floor cleaners and clean ourselves. Lots of cobwebs and dusts thru out house. Ice maker bearly made ice so had to buy ice daily. Umbrella next to hot tub was broken and had numerous wasp nests in it.

Address location is misleading .. but nice house

This is a very nice house in a tranquil setting but the blue circle on Vrbo that tells you where the address is before you book was on the wrong side of the river in Wawona. This property is on the Hotel side and up many roads and a sketchy bridge that washed out. I rent on Vrbo often and that blue circle is never not within a few blocks.. this is miles away. The house is very nice and tranquil just beware please of the location.
