Other things to note
Maximum Occupancy: This property comfortably accommodates up to 10 guests, day OR night, and that count includes little ones and infants too. While we wish we could be flexible, we're unfortunately not able to make exceptions to this. If your group is a bit larger than what we can offer here, just reach out before booking and we'd be glad to potentially help you toward a property that's a better fit. One more small note: if your group size changes after booking, we won't be able to adjust the cancellation policy, so please plan accordingly. This is a Mariposa County ordinance that must be adhered to at all times. We appreciate you helping us stay compliant.
Welcome Guide: One week prior to arrival, a digital welcome book will be sent via text message. For the protection of our guests, the guidebook will not be given out to anyone except the person who booked the property. The guidebook will have your special door code, address, local recommendations, and much more great info to help you prepare for your trip!
Access to Yosemite and Nearby Attractions: Yosemite National Park has implemented reservation systems in the past and may do so again depending on seasonal demand. When a reservation system is in place, guests staying at this property—located inside Yosemite National Park—are generally permitted entry with proof of their lodging reservation and do not need to secure a separate day-use reservation. Please note that the standard park entrance fee (vehicle pass) still applies unless you have a valid park pass. Entry requirements, weather conditions, and access to park amenities can change at any time, so guests are responsible for reviewing the most up-to-date information directly on the official Yosemite National Park website prior to arrival.
Kitchen: The kitchen is stocked with pots, pans, cookware, cups, silverware, and more! Our housekeeping team provides salt, pepper, and a can of cooking spray for your use. Occasionally, previous guests leave behind items such as spices, aluminum foil, or ziplock bags. You’re welcome to use any of these, but please note that our team does not check for or restock them, so we can’t guarantee what will be available. If these items are crucial to the success of your vacation, we recommend bringing them along to ensure you have everything you need. We try to clearly state this in the listing so there are no surprises.
Linens: Did you know that our vacation homes are among the few in the Yosemite area to feature professionally laundered linens? For every reservation, all linens are cleaned in commercial-grade washers using hypoallergenic detergent that’s stronger and more effective than typical residential options. They’re then pressed at 300°F—nearly twice as hot as a standard home dryer—to ensure the highest level of cleanliness and freshness. It’s an extra step we take to provide a truly clean, comfortable, and welcoming stay.
Fireplace/Firepits: No open wood-burning fire pits, bonfires, or campfires are permitted at short-term rentals. Charcoal grills of any type are strictly prohibited. Guests shall not bring any personal grills, barbeques, or other outdoor cooking apparatuses to the short-term rental; only those grills, barbeques, or other outdoor cooking apparatuses provided with the short-term rental are permitted to be used as installed and in the location installed.
**Pets: This property is pet friendly — and we're happy to say there's NO pet fee! We welcome up to 2 dogs per stay. We do ask that you disclose your pet(s) during the booking process or by reaching out to our team directly, so we can make sure housekeeping is properly notified.We kindly ask that pets are kept off the furniture, are not left unattended in the home, and are always leashed when outside in accordance with county ordinance.
Parking: There is enough parking for 4 cars at this property. The garage is unavailable to guests, as it is used for owner storage. We appreciate you not exceeding the maximum parking limit. Many of the local roads are privately owned and privately maintained. Please be mindful to obey speed laws and drive slowly in residential neighborhoods!
Simple Checkout Instructions: We understand checking out can be stressful and hectic, so we have implemented some of the easiest checkout procedures in our industry.
1.) No need to start any laundry, we’ll handle it all off site with our professional linen company.
2.) If you have time to start the dishwasher, that would be helpful.
3.) For your convenience, the park has placed several free, bear proof dumpsters in the Wawona area! The nearest dumpster is on Forest Drive, on the left as you're heading back to the highway from the house. It's about 1/4 to 1/2 mile from the house.
4.) PLEASE return any furniture you may have moved during your stay (especially outdoor chairs).
5.) Most importantly, please note our checkout time is 11am, not 10am like over 80% of vacation homes in our area! Our housekeeping team runs on caffeine and tight schedules, so they sure do appreciate you leaving on time!
Lastly, don’t forget to get a photo with your family and friends before leaving!
Garbage: Since Yosemite Park doesn’t offer home trash pickup, please “pack out” your garbage by using the bear-proof dumpsters nearby (within walking distance of the cabin). They’re free, easy to use, and help protect local wildlife.
Security Cameras: There are external only cameras on the premises that face certain entrance points of the home.
Snow Chains: California Highway Patrol and the National Park Service may require chains in wintery/snowy/icy conditions. Please ensure you are bringing a vehicle and necessary equipment capable of navigating in these conditions.
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.
Pests: Please note that this property is nestled in the beautiful Sierra Nevada mountains, offering a wonderful connection to nature. While we take regular preventive measures, including professional pest control, occasional visits from local wildlife—such as ants, spiders, insects, mice, or cobwebs—can occur. If you notice any of these during your stay, please let us know so we can promptly address them and ensure your comfort.
