* No animals of any kind
*Please put infants as "children" in guest total.
*No unaccounted for guests, (very strictly enforced), see additional house rules! (Property has exterior cameras)

The Space:
The rate is based on double occupancy. An extra fee applies for extra guests up to 11 people(max occupancy), including children and infants. All guests must be added to your reservation for your entire stay. We have found that any extra person adds additional wear on the space and other costs.
This home shares a property with two other units, but essentially the only shared amenities are the driveway and parking area
We provide starter coffee and tea supplies for your stay.

Hot tub is private for your use but can be seen from the lower part of the driveway

Guest Access:
*This listing is based on double occupancy, meaning there is a fee for each guest beyond 2 people. Day visitors are not allowed so every on the property (including children and infants*) at any time must be on your reservation. Maximum guest occupancy is 11.
*Please do not try to open locked doors or wonder into patios belonging to other units in the property.
*Please note based on your parties size certain rooms will be locked up and inaccessible.
* Early checkin and Late check out must be arranged in advance and will come with a charge. The Housekeeping company pays their staff by the hour, whether they are cleaning or waiting for guests to leave. In general they charge a fee of $25 per hour to alter the check in or check out time
*We do not alter our cancellation policy for instants of snow, rain, smoke from fires and closures to the National Park.

The Neighborhood:
In town you will find many restaurants, two supermarkets, a movie theater, shops and gas stations.

Getting Around:
While most people will want a car, it would be possible to take the YARTS bus and walk from the stop near the Starbucks. This would be a bit of a walk but very possible (about 1 mile).

Note: At times Yosemite National Park requires reservations, see the official website for details, if you fail to get them you can take the YARTS bus or another tour into the park without reservations.

Other Things to Note:
Please note that some roads from the East, such as Tioga Pass and Glacier Point are seasonal and are closed October through June.

Charcoal for the grill is not provided. While we try to keep salt, pepper and oil stocked for your convenience, it is not guaranteed.

The thermostat is set to allow you to set it to a minimum and maximum temperature. Should you need to exceed these temperature limits there are additional fees.

Pack-n-Play must be requested in advance

PLEASE NOTE: Hot Tub is available for use 24/7 but please know that the hot tub servicer will stop by at some point, during daytime hours, to service the hot tub. We also do have other service providers (Gardner, pest control etc.) that may be outside on the property during daytime hours from time to time.

Stocking

We couldn't do anything without the manager or host whoever it was watching every move we made. It made it very weird knowing that we were being watched all the time. We were there for work and was gone from like 5 am until after 7pm. All we wanted to do was shower, eat and relax a little before going to bed.

Greedy Owner

The owner advertised sleeps 11 for a certain price/night. We initially booked for 8 people. He doubled the advertised price for additional adults. Our original occupancy was for 6 adults and 2 infants. 8 days prior to the arrival date we had to change the total occupancy to 2 adults and zero infants. 8 days prior to check-in I asked for a refund the owner said no. I asked for a discount to the advertised price. The owner said no. This listing falsely/fraudulently advertised the price. The advertised price was for 11 people - there never should have been an "upcharge" in the original contract - when in fact we booked for 8 people - 3 under the advertised "sleeps 11". Very bad policy and I will never recommend VRBO if that is the standard policy.

Outstanding Place!

The property is just 3 mins away from Oakhurst which makes it accessible to restaurants, gas-stations etc. South entrance of Yosemite (Mariposa Grove) is around 30 mins from the house. Carl and Mitchell were amazing hosts, the communication was very clear and easy, and the house had everything ready for our visit. Plenty of sunshine in the morning with amazing views.The hot tub is in an AMAZING location and could easily fit 4-5 people. Game room was awesome to hangout and there is a bluetooth speaker inside the game room. Would definitely recommend for small groups.

Awesome stay

The location was great. Less than a mile from the main street w/restaurants, and 20 min from Yosemite. The owners were very helpful and responsive with checkin. The home was very comfortable and had everything we needed. Highly recommend

July 4th Getaway

My Friends and I had a wonderful time at the Black Bear Haven! The property was pretty spacious, and the backyard had a wonderful view. Carl was very responsive with all the questions I had prior to the trip. A few things to note, although I selected “house” as property type in VRBO, this unit is actually connected to another unit, so it’s more of a “townhome” in my opinion. Also, I was not aware of a parking fee for having more than 2 vehicles on-site. That information was put in the “general” section instead of “rates & availability”, and it wasn’t in the contract either.
