Inside Yosemite Nat Park! Newly remodeled private 2bd 2ba home with central A/C

The Yosemite Paradise Chalet is the perfect getaway for Yosemite Park. Completely renovated so everything is new, fresh and clean. The Chalet is a private home in a unique community INSIDE the gates of Yosemite Park with easy access to the Park attractions. It is located near the Glacier Point road and HWY 41, the main road in the park.

This is a beautiful 2-story home with 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, living room, loft, 2 decks, a full kitchen with granite counter tops and stainless steel appliances, eco-friendly bamboo wood floors, fresh paint and new furniture.

The kitchen is equipped with all the major appliances, dinnerware and organic supplies you will need for a quick snack or gourmet meal. We have stocked organic fair-trade coffee and teas and over 30 organic spices, in addition to a large microwave, quiet dishwasher, coffee maker, tea kettle, blender, stand mixer, food processor, slow cooker, fine cutlery, 5-burner gas stove with custom griddle, convection oven and a large refrigerator with in-door ice and chilled water dispensers. A reverse osmosis water filter and LED lighting complete this luxury vacation home.

The Chalet has full house air conditioning, remote control heating, Dish HD TV and satellite internet. We have stocked the home with games, books and park information. The covered rear deck is tucked away in the back to provide you a quiet and private place to relax and enjoy the birds, animals and forest views. The front deck is large with chairs, tables and special lounge chairs for children. A gas barbecue is provided for your grilling pleasure.

The bedrooms are furnished with quality mattresses, linens and plenty of storage. There are remote controls for AC, heat, ceiling fans and even a heated bed cover for your personal comfort.

There is a king bed with day bed and full closet in the main floor bedroom. The 2nd floor bedroom has a comfortable queen bed, dresser and windows with forest views.

Each bathroom is stocked with organic soap, shampoo and conditioner, and has a Jacuzzi jetted tub to help you relax after a long day of hiking and exploring the wonders of Yosemite.

The Chalet is finished with eco-friendly bamboo wood floors, a modern color palette, scenic artwork, LED lighting with dimmers, new windows with forest views and new mahogany doors throughout the home. All the furnishing are new and designer quality.

Please note there are security cameras outside the chalet that monitor the front door, back door, shed door, and the driveway.

This is the perfect getaway for two couples, a small family or friends in search of a new Yosemite adventure.

3 Nights in Yosemite West

Pros:3 AC units and ceiling fans, so easy to keep cool on hot days.Luxury Bath Towels.All of the cupboards are labeled with contents.Open concept living/dining/kitchen with lots of natural light.Kitchen is well stocked with appliances, spices, coffee, etc.Refrigerator and dishwasher are brand new.Lots of books, puzzles, children's toys.Very quiet neighborhood. We didn't see or hear any neighbors.Cons:Mattress is very firm. Could use a plush topper.Bathrooms are very small.Deck planks are old, rotting and loose with exposed nails. The host is planning to replace the deck in August, so be careful until then.The property is located at the very bottom of Yosemite West, so it will take you around 10 minutes to get up to highway 41.The driveway is very steep and narrow.

Wonderful property

We had a great stay at the Chalet. We woke up early and made coffee and ate breakfast, then explored the park all day and loved coming home to the Chalet for a shower and good nights sleep!! The kitchen is well equipped and the beds were comfortable. My 9 year old exclaimed “they have real toilet paper!”

This home was perfect for our family of 3 adults. It has everything you need other than food! The kitchen is so well appointed with high-quality items (cookware, glassware, utensils, appliances). So many spices! The toiletries, towels and linens were great as well. Beds are very comfy. I loved all the labels...helps to keep the home organized. Weather was perfect during our visit...we spent time on the deck and utilized the grill. Home is a little "deep" into West Yosemite (approx 12 minute drive from Route 41) but not a game-changer. We would highly recommend this home!

Consumer AlertThe host requires a deposit (to be paid via Paypal) which was not stated before I rented the property. I called VRBO regarding and they informed me that a host cannot demand a deposit to be paid via third party (any other site other than VRBO) and it needed to be stated in the listing breakdown BEFORE PAYING FOR THE RENTAL. LocationThe location was about 20-30 minutes away from Universal Studios which was great! HouseThe size of the house accommodated 18 people. However, there was not enough towels to accommodate 18 people. House ConditionThe furniture has a lot of stretches on it, the media room chairs are broken, the dishwasher was not working, the front door was not childproof (locks from the outside ) a child can simply turn the knob and go out of the house ( we travel with a portable door lock). The stair railing was broken, stains on all of the carpet, and bugs where in the bedrooms. The air went out, however the host did send someone to fix it. I inquired about some of the conditions, but they were not addressed. Cleanliness The house was not cleaned properly. We had to clean the tubs. PoolThere are no lights in the pool. You cannot use it at night. The pool was cleaned once and not good. Not sure if the pool filter worked because it was a lot a ants floating in the pool later during our stay. The pool net to clean the pool had a hole in it. Stay interrupted The host had a four hour home inspection during my stay and claimed I would get 150

Perfect location within park

The house included all the amenities you could possibly need- including oil, vinegar, every seasoning you could think of, paper towels, etc (I would check what’s in the kitchen before buying something.) The beds and pillows were extremely comfortable- compared to other houses we have rented in the past. The house no longer has a Satellite (as stated) - but the streaming pay channels are definitely an upgrade. The bathroom tub/shower combination is smaller verses the normal size and does not have any grab grabs. Definitely recommend bringing a couple of collapsible cooler bags to transport food to and from grocery stores and park excursions. We cooked almost every night and prepped for lunch and breakfast for the following day. You will pay a huge premium if you shop in the park and the choices are limited- I definitely recommend buying in Oakhurst beforehand. The house does a a nice size fridge w/ ice maker BUT to keep everything ice cold in the foldable cooler we froze water in 36 oz Gatorade and put them in the cooler bottles -worked great. * We stayed/hiked for 7 days- best bet, get to the valley early (by 10) park your car (use this as ur home base - you can easily go back and forth to car) and use the shuttle to go to all 17 stops. IF U DONT- u will find it difficult to find parking spots through out the day. We also brought collapsible golf chairs thus allowing us to relax/picnic anywhere! - especially near El Capitan so we could watch the climbers with binoculars.

Great location to stay for accessing different areas of Yosemite NP. Glacier Point Road is nearby. 35 minute drive to Yosemite Valley or Mariposa Grove. The property is clean and will organized (labeling throughout). The bedding and seating are quite comfortable. The kitchen is modern and well stocked. Linens are fresh and luxurious.Our party of 4, two couples, found the property to be adequately spacious for us. Because we had good weather for our week, we spent our days out exploring, and never found the opportunity to explore the books, games and puzzles available in the Chalet. We did not use the grill or back deck seating, but often checked the thermometer out there to see how warmly to dress for the day. Enjoyed sitting on the front deck, observing the activity of wildlife.I highly recommend this property and thank the owners for allowing us to spend a week in Yosemite paradise.

Best stocked kitchen ever

Had a wonderful week here enjoying Yosemite Notational Park! My family of 4 flew from Ohio to enjoy spring break and were extremely comfortable and happy with chalet. One of the best stocked and organized kitchens you will ever find in a rental! Everything you needed to know was clearly labeled and explained in the binder. Would absolutely rent again!

Water supply is vital

Overall, pretty clean and comfortable with plenty of essentials. Only bummer was when we returned from a beautiful day of hiking Yosemite on our last afternoon and found that the water had been shut off by Public Works. Scraped through the night and had to leave early the next morning. Better check with the owner about that if you’re interested in staying there…

Perfect Sibling Getaway!

My brother and I were looking for somewhere to stay near the park as we had won a Half Dome permit and would need to get on the trail early. This was the perfect pick. The community of Yosemite West is quiet and gorgeous and about a half hour from the Valley. The house was the perfect size for us, the beds were comfortable (MUCH appreciated after long hiking days), and we loved the front porch. We didn’t cook, but the kitchen was very well-stocked. There are many books about Yosemite, some puzzles, and children’s books and games. I would absolutely stay here again.

Location great, cleanliness fell short for us

We arrived about 4:30 pm to find the place a mess and not yet cleaned. By the time we connected with owner and he got cleaning crew out it was 8:30 before we could check in and use the place, so not a great start. Even after cleaning the entry mat was still dirty, used wash cloths in both baths and dust you could see all over from Lott looking down so I’m not sure how this place gets such a great review for cleanliness. It was great being inside the park and we did enjoy Yosemite. This is about as close as you can get without camping or staying at a Yosemite hotel/lodge. About 30 min drive into that area. Beds were comfortable and kitchen well stocked.
