Family-friendly vacation rentals in Yosemite Lakes

Beautiful place to stay, I recommend this spot. The hot tub is nice with the amazing Mountain View

Our family didn’t want to leave! The river/waterfall outside is gorgeous, and gives such a peaceful sound that can be heard up at the house. We brought out 4 kids and they loved the playground, waterfall, private bedrooms, and board games. Beautiful kitchen as well!

Great location to Yosemite and the cutest cabin. Plenty of space for a big group, clean and cozy. Would definitely stay here again in the future!

Robert has great taste on designing his place! You can really tell he put in a lot of thoughts about making this place unique! The cute backyard garden is definitely one of the selling points for a group trip! We will be back!

We were fortunate to find Cabernet's house at the last min while looking for a place to ring in 2025. Nestled at the top of the perimeter of the Yosemite valley in Oakhurst, the house is a rare find. The weather was beautiful, we got to breath refreshing fresh air and got to enjoy all the amenities at the place. Things we enjoyed. <> Wood burning indoor fireplace. The house was nice and toasty. Perfect for end of Dec/Jan temperatures. <> Large fenced yard for our fur babies. I must say this was the highlight of the trip as it's not easy to find properties that have a completely fenced backyard. Our two husky girls sure enjoyed running around a clean grassy hard. Thank you or WOOF WOOF ! <> Beautiful furniture, clean carpets, well stocked kitchens with a lots of pots and pans to cook. <> Cabernet is super responsive. Very happy about this since a host that communicates well makes the entire experience special ! Thanks Cabernet. Looking forward to visiting again !

Location is perfect for trip to Yosemite. The neighborhood is quiet. We enjoyed the evenings on the back deck in wooded surroundings.

Valerie's place was perfect for our stay to visit Yosemite. It wasn't our first time staying in Mariposa and we knew exactly where we wanted to be in town to walk to restaurants, the grocery store, and shops. The grill was in excellent condition with all of the necessary tools which we used frequently during our stay. The beds were comfortable, the place was clean, and we appreciated our stay there! I would recommend staying here to others and stay here again!

The running creek behind the house made our stay even better than we expected. We enjoyed our meals outside on the large patio and sunning on the deck. It is conveniently located 20 min. outside the South gate of Yosemite which made it easy to arrive early in the morning before the crowds. After a long day of hiking, it was nice to escape the crowds and return to this peaceful house to unwind and relax. Ken also provides a wealth of information for local hikes and restaurants which made planning very easy. 10 out of 10 stay!

Overall, the stay was quite pleasant and matched the description provided by the host. This place served as a convenient stopover for our trip from SFO airport to Yosemite. (Just a tip for future travelers: be sure to download offline maps in advance, as there may be no signal along the way.) A couple of areas could be improved: the master bathroom was closed, which was a bit inconvenient, and it would be great to have a dishwasher, cauz hand washing dishes didn’t feel very hygienic.

Terri reached out and made sure we made it safely. The home was very relaxing and peaceful with the hot tub, hammock and surrounded by trees. The pickleball court, tether ball, air hockey and table soccer were nice additives for entertainment. We booked this place to relax after our planned trip to Yosemite, the hot tub helped a ton with recovering our sore muscles from the intense hike. There is a binder with instructions for check out and any extra info we might need, I loved the fact that there is restaurant recommendations and even an itinerary for Yosemite in that binder for anybody that stays there and doesn’t know what’s around. We enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend it to others! I appreciate the extra detail in recommendations and messages making sure we are safe and comfortable during our stay!

The location is in a quiet rural neighborhood near a creek. The grounds are woodsy with lots of lovely plants and a hummingbird feeder outside the kitchen window. Upon arrival we found fresh baked cookies and fresh cut little flower bouquets. Walking down by the creek scratched our itch for our love of the mountain creeks near our favorite camping area. Inside is a cozy mix of Victorian cottage and modern amenities. It’s close to town for shopping and dining options. Yosemite National Park is an easy 1-1/2 hours away. Kadi is a great host!

Everything was great. House was clean and ready for our arrival. Catherine was great with communication and answered any questions we had right away. We would love to stay here again on future visits.

The yard was nice. The dogs were lovable. Inside premises are clean but having no kitchen indoors it is important to have the outside cooking area clean. Surfaces, grill outside were dusty and dirty. Hostess was aloof. No iron or ironing board. Otherwise some what overpriced, but safe and quiet.

Margaritas place was absolutely what I expected, great area, a lot of patio space for my family and my dogs to be, she was easy to reach when ever i needed something… would definitely rent there

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. It was perfect for our group of seven. Everthing was clean and organized. Although we only stayed a few days, we enjoyed the firepit and bbq and the beautiful rustic wooded environment. We also appreciated that the south entance of Yosemite Nat'l Park is only about 30 minutes away. You can tell that our host Heather really cares about her guests having a great stay. Also, after learning that we had left a cell phone in a bedroom Heather got the phone quickly sent back to us. We were so grateful!

Beautiful property! Amy and Josh were very responsive. The airbnb was well stocked as well. We had some Difficulty with heating the house but it was better on the second day.

Excellent stay in a clean, well-equipped home We thoroughly enjoyed our stay—the place was spotless, and the kitchen had everything we needed. One minor quibble: the coffee maker was tiny and could only brew two cups at a time, which was a bit inconvenient for our group. The location is fantastic—just about an hour’s drive to Yosemite National Park, making it an ideal base for exploring. The community was undergoing construction, and some roads were closed during our visit. We ended up waiting about 45 minutes to enter and pay the $50 entrance fee, which was frustrating. It’s worth asking the host for an update on access or checking ahead before booking.

The home is beautiful!! It is private and secluded but just 2 blocks from the cute downtown shopping. It really is a special place. Old Spanish tudor style with lush landscape and beautiful hardscaping. We had a blast in the pool after after hiking and biking at Yosemite. We used all the wonderful amenities, basketball, pickleball, ping pong, pool and hot tub. The 4 bedrooms were large with very comfortable beds and high end linens and towels. The kitchen was very well stocked and fun to make our family dinners. Our group consensus was this place was our favorite vacation Airbnb

Jeff and Gina were great hosts. Responsive and friendly. Close to Yosemite. The kids loved the game room, beds were comfortable. The kitchen is stocked with everything you’d need.

Beth was an amazing host and the place had everything you will need to feel like home. We had a couple of deers that visited us and that made my day . At night you can sit on the porch and stargazing. Beautiful property . We will definitely come back

Fantastic place! So many excellent little touches! The pool and hot tub were perfect temp, the view was great, the food/treats were a great addition, and the place was super cozy. We loved the place/host and would for sure stay again.

We had an amazing stay in this lovely home. The entire home was spotless, the running water was warm, and the property was peaceful. Would definitely recommend for anyone looking to get away.

We loved our stay here. We were welcomed as we first arrived and were shown around the property and made sure to know how to use all the great amenities this beautiful home has to offer. The jacuzzi and pool were amazing after a long day of hiking. And we felt at home with this amazing stay.

Great location, in a beautiful home decorated meticulously! Spacious and set up perfectly for family and friends entertaining! Love this place will be back!!!
