Beetlebark Bungalow- Inside Yosemite w/ hot tub & EV charging cable

Welcome to the freshly renovated BeetleBark Bungalow, located INSIDE Yosemite!

Cozy, lovable, and charming, this little STUDIO bungalow (420 sq ft.) will give you a fun and fantastic little place to rest your body and soul as you explore Yosemite National Park.

Some features of this snug little cabin include:

- Hot tub is professionally serviced (which is rare in our area) and available year round.
- Wifi
- BBQ Grill
- EV Charger
- Fully stocked and functional kitchen
- Trail that leads straight down to the creek
- 50 inch Smart TV so you can login to your own Netflix, Hulu, etc.
- Great little back deck with firepit table
- Outdoor firepit (NOT usable in summer months or during periods of high fire risk, no exceptions)
- Washer and dryer

The ceiling consists of beautiful, completely repurposed blue/grey wood. The wood came from a tree that had been destroyed by bark beetles.

The bedding includes 2 new pullout queen sofas, both with 6 inch thick memory foam mattresses.

This home is all one level home.

Sleeps 4

Rental Agreement- Immediately after booking, the rental agreement displayed at checkout will be sent to you via text and email for E-signing. Kindly E-sign this within 48 hours to finalize your reservation. You will also need to upload a photo of the ID associated with the credit card on file. This is solely for fraud protection purposes. E-signing allows you to go straight to the property upon your arrival, instead of coming to our office to sign and get a key!

Welcome Guide- One week prior to arrival, a digital welcome book will be sent via email and text message. It will have your special door code, address, items provided, and much more great info to help you prepare for your trip!

Access to Yosemite and Nearby Attractions- Yosemite National Park, like many others across the United States, has implemented a reservation system in recent years to manage visitor numbers effectively. Since this home is located INSIDE Yosemite National Park, you will NOT NEED a separate entrance reservation, only proof of your lodging reservation (please see official park website for details). We highly recommend that visitors planning a trip to Yosemite stay informed by regularly checking the National Parks websites and affiliated sources for any updates regarding the reservation system. While we strive to provide our guests with an exceptional experience, it's important to note that access to Yosemite or nearby attractions cannot be guaranteed, especially during peak seasons. By staying informed and flexible, visitors can better navigate their travel plans and make the most out of their trip to this beautiful region.

Kitchen- The kitchen is stocked with pots, pans, cookware, cups, silverware, and more! Our housekeeping team leaves out salt, pepper, and a can of cooking spray. Friends, family, and other guests sometimes leave spices, aluminum foil or ziploc bags at the home. You are most welcome to use any of these items, but if something is particularly crucial to the success of your meals, we do recommend bringing it along with you.

Linens- Our vacation homes are some of the few in the Yosemite area to use professionally laundered linens. All linens are professionally serviced for each and every reservation. The linens are washed in commercial grade washers with stronger hypoallergenic detergent than you would find in a residential washer. All linens are then pressed with an iron at 300° F, vs. a standard home dryer that only reaches 160°. You are not likely to find this level of service in other vacation homes.

Hot Tub- There is no lifeguard on duty for the pool/hot tub. Please use at your own risk. We kindly ask that you shower prior to entering the hot tub.

This home is NOT pet friendly.

There is parking for 1 car. Many of the local roads are privately owned and privately maintained. We appreciate you not exceeding the maximum parking limit.

Early or Late Check-ins- Early check ins are often difficult for our team to accommodate. If you would like to check in early, please reach out to us after 2PM on the day of your arrival so we can check with our team. If you need guaranteed early check in, we recommend booking the night before your arrival so that you may check in as early as you wish. For checkout, most vacation homes have a 10AM check out in our area. We provide an 11AM checkout, and unfortunately can rarely offer a later checkout.

Occupancy- Maximum occupancy of 4 guests regardless of age. Infants are included in the total. This is strictly enforced. No having events/weddings/large dinner gatherings/guests over just to visit.

Security Cameras- There are external only cameras on the premises that face certain entrance points of the home.

Chains- California Highway Patrol and the National Parks Service may require chains in wintery/snowy/icy conditions. Please ensure you are bringing a vehicle and necessary equipment capable of navigating in these conditions.

No Smoking- The Smoke Remediation Fee will be a minimum of $500 for smoking in the house and could be higher depending on the extent of the damage.

Insurance- Travel Insurance is provided as an option during the checkout process. Please note that as hosts, we cannot protect your trip from flight delays, illnesses, weather, job loss, or other circumstances that may prevent you from making your trip. We truly wish we could! We STRONGLY suggest purchasing some type of Travel Insurance so that you may protect your vacation investment from unforeseen circumstances that may prevent you from making your trip. It's a nominal cost that can absolutely pay off!

Mail- Due to locked neighborhood mailboxes, we ask you not mail anything to the property. You are most welcome to mail items to our office (Love Yosemite! Vacation Rentals) in Oakhurst. Please reach out to us to make arrangements.

Calling Us- The phone number on our account does not receive text messages, because it is the number for our office. Please call that number or send us a message if you need any help or have any questions!

Please note that this property is nestled in the Sierra Nevada Mountain Range, a beautiful escape into nature. However, being in such a pristine, natural environment means we occasionally encounter some of nature's residents, such as ants, spiders, insects, mice and cobwebs. While we take every precaution (including regularly scheduled pest control) to minimize these occurrences, they are a natural part of the mountain experience. Please do inform us if you experience any of these during your stay, so that we have the chance to address them to give you a more comfortable experience.

Neighbors- Please do not trespass on the neighboring properties. We appreciate you respecting the local neighborhood!

Internet- Peer-to-peer (for example bit torrent) and downloads of copyrighted and illegal material are strictly forbidden by United States law and our internet provider actively monitor these activities. Guests are fully responsible for any illegal uploading or downloading of content and for other illegal activities. By agreeing to the House Rules, you agree to not perform any illegal activities using the home`s internet connection. Any copyright infringement by guest is subject to release of guest's information to copyright holder.

Simple Checkout Instructions-
1. Check out time is 11:00am, not 10am like most vacation homes up here!
2. Please do not do any laundry, it's all professionally serviced off-site.
3. If you have time to start the dishwasher, that would be helpful but not necessary.
4. Kindly throw your garbage in the large green dumpster, located out by the parking! It really helps us keep the critters away!
5. Most importantly, please return any furniture you may have moved during your stay.
P.S. Don't forget to get a last minute photo or two with your family and friends before leaving!

After booking, the rental agreement displayed at checkout will also be sent for E-sign to the email on file. Kindly E-sign this within 48 hours after you make your booking to finalize your reservation.

Great Cozy Cabin
Great little cozy cabin. Has everything you need and more. It’s a quiet neighborhood and the Pine Market was a great place to walk to in the afternoons. It’s located an hour drive to the Yosemite Valley Floor but only about 10 minutes from Mariposa Grove. The owner was helpful & communicative when we wanted to rebook our stay from the spring to summer.

The inside is very new and beautiful. Clean. Fully furnished and not spartan. Everything works well. The owner and manager were super helpful and responsive. What I did not like so much was the setting of the house. It is in a very woodsy and residential area. Surrounded by other houses and no privacy. You look out the window and you stare into another house. I see from other reviews that this did not bother people so much and many used the outside bathtub. Too awkward for me though. Also, I had not realized from the descriptions that the houses consisted of one room that served as living room and bedroom, but perhaps this was clear if I had scrutinized the pictures better.

Lovely little place, perfect for my husband and I to spend a weekend in Yosemite! Check in and out was very easy. There was an electricity outage in the area in the morning and customer support was easy to reach. Power came back on quickly. The grill and hot tub worked great. Only suggestion would be to stock the kitchen with more mixing bowls- made cooking a little bit tricky but we made it work. Would definitely come back !

We had a great stay and hiked the Yosemite falls which was about an hours drive away. The hot tub was great. Cabin had everything we needed. The pull out beds were a bit firm for our liking but it was manageable. Overall we had a great stay.

Wonderful, clean newly remodeled studio cabin inside Yosemite.
Beautifully appointed cabin. Lots of great amenities including private hot tub, full kitchen, gas grill and washer/dryer. Cabin has been very recently renovated with beautifull distressed beetle bark wood ceiling. Great location inside the park gate. We loved the convenience of the local food stores in Wawona. We used the cabin for our 5 night stay in the park in Sept. and really appreciated the poweful hot tub jets on our tired hiking muscles at the end of the day. I highly recommend a stay here to take full advantage of all the park offers.

Such a perfect cabin for a Yosemite getaway!
What a fantastic property! We loved the location right inside the park, and being more on the south side of Yosemite we didn’t have too many issues with congestion. The cabin was adorable and perfect for my friend & I. The beds were comfortable, kitchen had everything we needed to cook our meals, and LOVED the hot tub after a long day of hiking. Check in was super easy, and the information provided by the host company was super helpful.

Unreal Bungalow
This little bungalow was perfect for my fiancé and me to relax, explore, and soak in nature. The house is in the middle of the woods in Wawona, right outside Yosemite Valley. The little cabin is cozy and warm. The jacuzzi was perfect at night and early in the morning. Would definitely stay here again!! Thank you for everything.
