About this house rental

Luxury Vacation Home Rental

Located inside the gates of Yosemite National Park, our 3 bedroom (plus a den with a pull out couch), 3 bath 3200 square foot multi-level luxury home will delight and enchant you. We are just a short drive to both Badger Pass Ski Area and the Yosemite Valley for your ice skating, snow shoeing, and skiing adventures if we have snow in December or for early spring (April). During the summer months, we are located within 20 minutes of the Valley floor and 6 miles from the turn off on the 41 to get to Glacier Point.

The benefits of staying at our home inside Yosemite National Park are many. By actually being inside the National Park gates, you avoid the long lines going in and out of the entrance stations. At peak season, this can be an hour or more wait time just to enter the park. This allows you to experience leisurely mornings enjoying the peace and solitude of our quiet community before taking off to see the many attractions in the park.

After a day of soaking up the wonders of Yosemite, our home is only a short drive out of the crowded valley where you will return and enjoy the evening in the great lounge taking in the sunset through our picture windows while relaxing in our comfortable and cozy furniture. Weather permitting, enjoy the grand deck while observing birds and wildlife such as coyotes, squirrels, black bears and deer. Sit back and relax while watching the sunset turn to a glorious star-filled sky. Find the constellations and count the shooting stars. This is a place away from the crowded Yosemite Valley floor, a place for evening relaxation. Sit back and enjoy the wind whispering through the cedars, pines and dogwoods.

While campers in the valley experience the haze and smog of hundreds of campfires, you will marvel at the clear night skies while listening to the sounds of the forest from the large decks! You will love our starry nights and pine scented mornings at Yosemite Peregrine Lodge. This is a clean, well maintained home that offers the ideal home base for your Yosemite experience. Views, mature pines and peace. Please, no smoking, no pets.

Attractions and distances

The distance from Yosemite West to famous landmarks are: Badger Pass Ski Area 6.5 miles (10,5 km), Tunnel View 8.3 miles (13,4 km), Bridalveil Falls 9.8 miles (15,8 km), Wawona Hotel 12.4 miles (20 km), Ahwahnee Hotel 15.9 miles (25,6 km), Glacier Point 16.2 miles (26 km) and El Portal 21.7 miles (35 km).

Our Home

The Yosemite Peregrine Lodge is a multi-level 3200 square foot home suitable for couples, families and executive retreats. Unusual for most homes in the Yosemite West community, the Peregrine Lodge is situated on a rather level area. This means you do not have to negotiate the steep stairs that earmark many houses.

Entering the home through a door on the same level as the parking, you will find easy access for the unloading of your luggage. There you will find entry to three guest bedrooms.

Sleeping Accommodations

Each bedroom has both interior and exterior entries. They each have their own sink and shower, entry to their own private deck area, and a unique and beautiful floor to ceiling fireplace. As an added benefit of the bedrooms being situated on the first level, you will experience privacy from the activity of the upper floor with the great room, dining room, kitchen and loft.

This separation and intimate setting makes this home uniquely suited for multiple couples, families or groups to have a space of their own. The unique and cozy rooms are thematic in nature.

Living Area

The main floor features a living room with a floor to ceiling rock fireplace with a design of Yosemite Falls. The plush and comfortable furniture in the great room will embrace you after a long day of exploring the park.

Huge soaring windows in the great room opening west affords views of the forest and evening sunsets.

A pool table, puzzles and games, satellite TV, DVD players and WIFI. This is an ideal home for those who are seeking upscale luxurious accommodations for family, friends, coworkers or groups.


We do not provide access to a laundry, however, there is a convenient laundry mat at the condos a short walking distance down the road.


Internet availability

There is WiFi offered at the lodge. We use StarLink which has proven to be such a great advantage being in this remote location. We had such issues in the past with satellite dish and past technologies due to our home being at 6,000 feet elevation and surrounded by tall sugar pines and cedar trees which made it difficult to receive clear signals. We now have unlimited access to the internet. At times, it may be slower than what you might be used to in the big cities or urban areas, but has really been dependable.

You will also be able to find Wi-Fi Internet in the various hotels and lounges in Yosemite Valley, just a short drive from our location.

We are so happy to have selected this home for our stay with our visiting relatives from Germany. We were a party of 7 (including two kids). The place worked perfectly for us all. After a trip from LA to Monterey to SF to Mendocino, this was the last stop and we really felt like it was the grand finale to a wonderful summer vacation for us all. The location was especially nice because of its proximity to the Yosemite attractions but far enough away to feel like a true getaway. We visited during a heat wave and the house location is a higher elevation from Yosemite Valley which also added to the comfort. I can't think of a single thing I would ask her to do differently. Thank you, Vonnie, for your warm welcome and superb communication. We will be back!

We were a family of six; grandpa, grandma, daughter, son-in-law and grandchildren ages eight and four. Everyone loved the property. It was clean, well furnished, and very roomy. The cooks thought the kitchen was fabulous. The grandkids loved the pool table. Everyone was thrilled to see a mamma bear and her cub walk by one morning. It was great to be staying in the park. The location was convenient to the Central Valley, Mariposa Grove and Tuolumne Meadows. Everyone's favorite hike was the Two Bridges hike along the Lyell Fork in Tuolumne. We swam in the creek and the kids slid down a small waterfall.

The Peregrine Lodge is the perfect home to stay in within Yosemite National Park! It was our first time to Yosemite so we couldn’t really appreciate the proximity to the Valley and other sites within the park until we were in our car driving to them each morning. We were so thankful to have booked with Vonnie! The home is the most well equipped, clean VRBO that we have stayed at. The sunsets and stargazing at night made for an even more magical vacation in Yosemite! Thank you Vonnie for sharing your home. We hope to visit again in the future!!

We - a family of four with two teenage children - enjoyed our stay tremendously. Vonnie is a great host, always helpful and supportive and with many ideas what to do best in Yosemite. The house is a dream. It offers enough space and all the amenities you can imagine (including pool billiard). We can only recommend this very special place in Yosemite.

The house is located very conveniently. We were able to get to all the famous spots (falls, valley visitor center, sequoia trees, etc) within 30 min. The house is big with beautiful views of mountains. Also, kids loved seeing bears, deers, and chipmunks! The host Vonnie responded to all the messages promptly and was very helpful.

We spent 5 nights here and loved the location. It was wonderful to be in the park and not have to fight the lines getting in every day. Beds were comfy. Each bedroom has its own air conditioning so if some people want it cooler they can make their own adjustment. Great kitchen - well stocked - huge fridge. We loved the pool table and the huge selection of dvds and books. Our only wish would have been for some extra washcloths and towels since the house doesn’t have a washer and dryer but definitely not a deal breaker. I would stay here again if we visit Yosemite in the future.

All of our wants and needs were there for us. Very well equipped kitchen, with any piece of equipment or dish one needed. One thing would have made things easier…. A hall bathroom. One that was not inside a bedroom.
