Property Description
Stay inside the park! See Half Dome and El Capitan from the comfort of our deck!
There are only a handful of rentals within the boundaries of Yosemite National Park with comparable views. With this summer’s reservation system still up in the air, we know park access feels uncertain, but if you stay with us, you won’t need to secure a separate entry reservation when one is required by the National Park Service.
Yosemite Valley View is in a uniquely special location within the private enclave of Foresta, just 10 minutes from the valley floor. Our reviews consistently reflect how happy guests are with both the house and its location. Beyond the incredible views from the deck, our property offers direct access to hiking trails and a beautiful waterfall nearby.
The home is 2,000 square feet, fully appointed, and features granite countertops in the kitchen. It sleeps six in three bedrooms with queen-size beds, plus a comfortable sofa bed in the loft. Enjoy the huge deck, perfect for wildlife viewing, stargazing, yoga, or simply relaxing while barbecuing with an amazing view!
The kitchen is fully equipped and stocked with essentials such as paper towels, napkins, and coffee filters. Free high-speed, unlimited Wi-Fi is provided through Verizon.
Our location is ideal for those looking to avoid crowds. We are in a private area with no close neighbors and open space on two sides. Yosemite Valley View is one of the closest private rentals to Yosemite Village.
To ensure you have the experience you expect, please be aware that many other homes listed under "Yosemite National Park" can be up to an hour’s drive outside the park—and with traffic, getting in can take even longer.
Guests must abide by house rules and digitally sign a rental agreement via Dropbox Sign. No pets. Smoking is never allowed anywhere on the property. A webcam adjacent to the parking area provides security and helps assess weather conditions but does not view interior spaces. Holiday rates apply.

Great location within the park. Quiet and away from everything but close enough to so many great sights/hikes and the Village grocery. House is wonderful, kitchen has everything you need. Jim is fantastic with communicating.

Well furnished, comfortable and clean home, complete with interesting books, fun games and a beautiful view. Location is perfect - easy access to both Tioga Road and the Valley. Stocked with many thoughtful items such as coolers, tupperware, extra bedding, etc. Jim was easy to reach and responsive to any questions/concerns. Thank you for the wonderful stay!

This house was very comfortable and perfectly located to Yosemite National Park. We found the house well appointed and clean. The view from the deck and main living space was phenomenal!

Incredible experience
Had just a wonderful stay here recently and would recommend this home to anyone and everyone. It’s a special and peaceful experience being able to stay within the park itself, and the house has everything you’d ever need and more.

Unbelievable Getaway
We absolutely loved the property. It was so beautiful. We found it to be everything advertised with more amenities than expected. It was a family trip of a lifetime. Also, the park was magnificent.

SPECTACULAR Week
Our week spent in Yosemite was spectacular. The park is breathtakingly gorgeous. After daily hikes, it was very refreshing to have this lovely place to call home. The comfort of the house and the furnishings made it feel like our home for the week. The gas wood burning stove in the living room was cozy on one rainy afternoon. The beds were comfortable. The kitchen was well stocked for cooking. The views of Half Dome and El Capitan are spectacular. Watching the sun rise above El Capitan each morning will forever be etched in my memory. I don’t know how to adequately recommend this property. To say we enjoyed it and hope to return seems like a gross understatement. Thank you, Jim!

A Family Friendly Stay
This was the perfect spot to share space with family. Board games, space, views and comfort. It was an easy drive to the park and a nice place to rest after a long day of hikes. The owner was kind, responsive, and flexible. The property was clean, spacious, and accommodating to our family’s needs. Would definitely come back!

Legit Awesome Home
Absolutely the best place to stay in Yosemite!! You will love the views of El Capitan and Half Dome from the living room, kitchen, deck, one of the bedrooms, and loft. The house is really clean. The kitchen is modern. The teens loved the game room that is in the basement. The drive to the main village is only about 15-20 minutes and the views getting there are gorgeous. Finally, Jim the host is truly fabulous at taking care of any issues that come up, provides great info for the park, and is generally very friendly. We had 7 people and this house was absolutely perfect!!
