We loved the location and the home had a nice feel to it. We did have some problems with the AC not working for the entirety of the trip and it was over 90 degrees outside. The owner failed to get the unit fixed while we were there which was terribly disappointing since we figured out it was most likely the capacitor the first night. (this is an easy fix for anyone that is a little handy). Beyond this there were just a few small electrical issues with outlets and light. It was a nice home and had a good outdoor grill.

Our family spent 6 nights at this beautiful home located in Wawona, inside the park. It was everything we hoped for, AND MORE!! Our hosts were awesome. The hosts have done an extraordinary job in building this home.

We stayed in this special home in Yosemite with our family of 7 adults and 2 children. We had plenty of room for a 5 day stay. The kitchen was very well equipped. There were extra towels, pillows and blankets if wanted or needed. It was a bonus to park inside the garage. The AC, not readily available at all lodging in the park, was very much needed with the high temperatures during our stay in July. It is a drive, beautiful one at that, to get to the valley loop but we mapped out our daily excursions with various stops each day to break up the drive for the younger members of the family. If you are going to Yosemite please stay inside the park gates as this house is located. The time in line waiting to come through the gates would have been unfathomable during the height of the summer season. The communications with Dan and Chris were exceptional and much appreciated.

Our party included two grandparents and two families of 2 spouses and 2 teenagers for a total of 10. We enjoyed our stay at Summit House. Because we had a reservation and arrived relatively late in the day, we had no problem getting into the Yosemite National Park. We spent one day in Yosemite Valley, one day in Mariposa Grove and took a day trip to Glacier Point. An unexpected bonus was swimming in the South Fork of the Merced River at two spots relatively near Summit House. The house was spacious and interesting from an architectural standpoint. The kids (young and old) enjoyed games of bumper pool!

We had a great stay at the Summit House. Group of 12 adults and teens. House was well appointed, comfortable and location was amazing. Pine Tree market 1/4 mile away was convenient for some groceries and there is a fun swimming hole with a water down only 1/2 mile away. Highly recommend and we would stay again.

Our group of 8 adults totally enjoyed this house! We were there for 4 nights over Memorial Day weekend. The park was crowded so it was a big comfort to be inside the gates and not needing a reservation. There are 4 very comfortable bedrooms, a great kitchen, and several wonderful gathering areas (inside and outside). The location is somewhat remote so do yourself a favor and arrive during daylight!

Summit House exceeded our expectations. Our group consisted of 11 adult men all of whom are in our 70’s. All of our needs were met. It was great being in the park. I’d recommend Summit House without hesitation!!
