The space
Cedar Star at Yosemite is designed to maximize guest comfort and convenience. This first-class house features air conditioning, a whole-house automatic standby generator (there are frequent utility power outages in Yosemite), king size beds in each of three bedrooms, a queen-size sofa bed, well-appointed bathrooms (including 2 with steam showers and 1 with a jetted tub), 2 full-size gourmet kitchens (including a 36-inch induction cook-top and convection oven on the main floor), and large covered wraparound decks on each floor to enjoy the view of local mountains and sunsets.

Plenty of space to gather as a group inside and outside on the decks, and also quieter, more private areas when you need some time alone to relax with a book or just listen to the wind in the trees.

Additional features include hardwood and tile floors, high-end room-size rugs, 2 television areas with 60" LED screens, Starlink Wi-Fi internet, satellite TV, off-street all-season parking for 5 cars, washer and dryer, and easy access to the main floor from the street so you don't have to carry luggage and groceries up flights of stairs to enter the house.

Please note that there may be doorbell and/or other type of security camera(s) located on the exterior of the house. Guests will be advised of each device's exact location prior to check-in if any security camera is installed and active.

Cedar Star at Yosemite strongly recommends that guests purchase travel insurance. Refunds and/or credits outside of Airbnb's cancellation policy will not be granted unless the house is inaccessible due to park closure, evacuation orders, or major utility failure.

Follow all local safety advisories regarding travel in California.

Guest access
Street-level parking for up to five cars allows easy access to main floor without the need to climb or descend stairs to reach the house.

Neighborhood highlights

Located inside the gates of Yosemite National Park (which means no waiting in long lines to enter and exit during your stay) Yosemite West is a community of private residences and resort homes which can be accessed from California State Highway 41 (aka The Wawona Road) via Henness Ridge Road, approximately 17 miles (27 km) inside the South Entrance of the Park. With an approximate altitude of 6,000 feet, Yosemite West is higher than accommodations in the valley. During the summer, this affords a cooler environment by 10 to 20 °F (5 to 10 °C) than in the Valley.

Yosemite West is about 30 minutes closer to the popular Glacier Point area and Mariposa Grove of Giant Sequoias than any of the often crowded and overpriced lodgings/campsites in Yosemite Valley. Close enough to to reach Yosemite's sights and activities with a few minutes drive, yet just far enough away from the crowds to enjoy Yosemite's peace and quiet at the end of the day.

During the winter, Yosemite West is the closest lodging to the Yosemite Ski and Snowboard Area (Badger Pass) for world-class cross-country skiing and snowshoeing, and excellent family downhill and snowboarding.
