Lovely Little Place!
The Owl Nest was the perfect place to stay for our overnight trip to Yosemite! The check-in process was easy and the owners responded quickly to a question I had about the A/C system. The property was very clean and quiet in the evenings. The owners also provided very clear instructions on how to get to the property which helped a lot. Overall a great stay!

Very nice
Clean and neat. Just up the road from Oakhurst (10 minutes) - nice town for shopping & restaurants. My initial impression was that it was a long way (1hr 45 min) from Yosemite Valley, until I figured out that everything outside the Park was a long way from Yosemite Valley! I would stay there again.

Clean and well maintained
The Owl's Nest was very clean and comfortable. We found the bed to be surprisingly VERY comfortable and slept well. The place had everything needed to enjoy your stay, such as pots and pans, and dishes. The pictures provided are not representative of the current condition of the hot tub, however it functioned enough to ease our muscles after strenuous days of hiking in Yosemite. The place was quiet and we felt a lot of privacy. We enjoyed our time while staying there

A lovely little getaway
This is a bright and clean studio apartment perfect for two people. Everything worked, the bed was comfy and the shower was hot. Once the owners replace the hot tub cover, it will be great. The only downside to this property is the traffic noise. Perhaps if we stayed in the back apartment it would not be so noisy. And, yes we would stay here again.

Clean, cozy, nicely done. Comfortable bed. Wish there could have been some paper plates, napkins, plastic sandwich bags to pack sandwiches in for leaving for the day to hike. Shower turned cold at times. All in all it was very nice.

Really nice place with convenient access to Yosemite Southpark entrance
We enjoyed our three day stay. The owners were communicative and responded to questions quickly. The room was large for two, clean and had all of the items we needed. The property grounds don't offer much beyond the rooms, but since you are close to some of the most beautiful scenery on the planet, it's best to get out anyway! Good shopping and restaurants nearby in Oakhurst, which is on the way to the Yosemite Southgate. We especially enjoyed Southgate Brewing for both beer and food. There are also some nice trails nearby for those days when you may want a break from Yosemite. Would certainly stay here again.

Was perfect for our trip to Yosemite. Definitely close to everything you might need, it's just a few miles down the road. The Owl Suite was amazing and perfect for 2 to 3 people and I even got a chance to enjoy the hottub. Seriously was perfect for a couple nights trip. Would definitely definitely stay again.

Pleasant weekend stay near Yosemite
My boyfriend and I stayed here two days to visit Yosemite and had a great stay. The place was spacious and clean. The hot tub was a nice bonus. Parking was easy and the place was close to town if we needed anything. It was about an hour drive to the park. No stove or oven so plan accordingly. Just mini fridge.

What’s not to like! Clean and inexpensive with a 10/10 bed and a hot tub. Great communicative hosts who check-in and really offer a personal touch. I’m in the luxury resort industry and this place checks the big AND little boxes.
