About this house rental
Welcome to our beautiful mountain home, The Shady Glenn, which has been welcoming guests of the Glenn family for many years. We hope you will enjoy it as much as all of its current owners have!
It is conveniently located only 19 miles away from the south entrance to Yosemite National Park, close to the famous Mariposa Grove of Giant Sequoias, one of the park’s main attractions. Yosemite' s south entrance is the closest to the world-famous Glacier Point. Beautiful Bass Lake, a water sports and boater’s paradise, is only 1 mile away. Fresno Yosemite International Airport, the closest major airport to Yosemite, is only 52 miles away.
The house is a true home-away-from-home that can accommodate up to eight guests with four bedrooms and three baths. It is situated on a park-like corner lot.
The wrap-around deck welcomes you to the main level, which features an open floor plan, an updated kitchen with granite countertops and new appliances, and an eating area with wrap-around bench seating. Your whole group will be able to enjoy meals together thanks to an extra pull-out leaf in the kitchen table. The kitchen already has everything you need to cook your own meals. For coffee lovers, we offer both a Keurig and a traditional coffee maker. The kitchen sink has a built-in water filter - no need for inconvenient water bottles! The house has central air conditioning and heating.
The main living area features a flat-screen Smart TV with a Firestick, so you can use your own Netflix or Hulu account to watch your favorite shows. Live TV with cable channels is also available. There are two bedrooms with queen beds and an updated bathroom with a granite countertop on the main floor as well.
Upstairs is the private master suite with a king bed, a gas fireplace with remote starter, flatscreen Smart TV with Firestick so you can use your own Netflix or Hulu account to watch your favorite shows, ceiling fan, and ensuite bath with a shower-tub. An upper-level deck is directly off the master bedroom.
The downstairs level is a second master suite with an ensuite bath, ceiling fan, a gas fireplace with remote starter, and a twin daybed and another twin pull-out trundle. This level is perfect for a kids’ gameroom - it has a Smart TV with Firestick and a Nintendo Wii with games. This level provides a perfect place for kids and teens to hangout while adults can enjoy the other parts of the house. The dual indoor living areas make the house the perfect fit for families and groups of adults.
The covered back deck features a BBQ, outdoor seating, and a picnic table big enough to comfortably seat your entire group. Barstools add to the seating capacity.
The Shady Glenn has a full-size washer and dryer. The gravel-lined driveway can easily accommodate four cars. There are exterior security cameras for the front and back door.
The Forks at Bass Lake, a popular lakeside restaurant and general store, is only a four minute drive from the house. The drive to Yosemite is only twenty-five minutes.

All was great
3.0 / 5.0
Can't provide full context in under 1,500 characters per Vrbo imposed limit , but here's a quick rundown:
- Plenty of stairs: beware if traveling with disabled/elderly
- A/C system needs upgraded. The existing system is not able to adequately cool the home as a whole. The "secondary master suite" downstairs doesn't have vents at all, and no ceiling fan. It got very hot and stuffy. Thankfully there was a floor fan we plugged in the wall to help.
- The host, with no notice given at all, remotely manipulated the set temperature on the thermostat even though we never tried to set it below 70 per the owner's written rules.
- Only 5 washcloths provided for 7 people and 3 night stay. I sent message to host politely asking for more washcloths, and was told we were welcome to go buy some in Oakhurst, followed up with an additional remark conveying bewilderment that we dared to ask such a thing .
- We considered the house satisfactorily clean, but did find some hair and bugs in a couple of places. Definitely not 10/10 cleanliness as reported by pretty much all the other reviewers.
Everything else was okay. The best way to describe our overall opinion of this property is *overrated*. We just expected better from a property that had such unanimously glowing reviews on Vrbo, and we were particularly disappointed with the host’s behavior. It's hard to believe we're the only ones who've ever had a negative word to say about the property or its host.

The cabin was in perfect condition when we arrived. It was a perfect oasis after a day spent hiking at Yosemite or floating around Bass lake! The cabin is about thirty minutes from the south entrance of Yosemite, which was convenient for getting in the park early. I would highly recommend this cabin to anyone looking for a home away from home near Yosemite!

We had a great time at this lovely cabin home. The kitchen is very well stocked which is not always the case in vacation rentals. The house has plenty of room but at the same time feels so cozy. The furniture and beds are comfortable and the house was very clean. Looking forward to returning when the weather is a bit warmer so we can enjoy the large back deck!

This place was everything we hoped for in a girls weekend get-away-from-it-all trip! The cabin was exactly as described and felt so welcoming from the moment we stepped inside. There was plenty of space for the 4 of us ladies to each have our own rooms as well as enough to all share in the common areas.
We thoroughly enjoyed our time here whether it was taking a brisk walk around the lovely, peaceful neighborhood, playing a few games from the well stocked shelves, watching the sunrise from the enormous wrap around deck area, or making a nice meal in the fully loaded kitchen-it was all amazing!! We highly recommend this affordable home away from home retreat.
A special note: I was very picky in my search for a place that ultimately resembled a full-on cabin feel and this home was exactly that and more, especially with it's unique layout. We wished we could've stayed longer than 2 days!! Hopefully next time - Thank you for your generosity Daniel!!

The property was exactly as described! Owner was extremely responsive and kept in touch during our stay to ensure we had everything we needed, which we did! The rooms and amenities were perfect and more enjoyable than a commercial hotel! Wish we could have stayed longer! The setting was serene, quiet and clean. We enjoyed being a short distance to Bass Lake, but still experience nature! We will be back!

Our family thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this spacious and cozy cabin near Bass Lake. It has a great wrap-around patio with the highlight being the back patio furnished with picnic table, outdoor lights, and lots of chairs to enjoy the view. The kitchen is fully stocked with dishes. Daniel was an attentive host who was quick to respond to our questions. We hope to stay again someday!

Very nice and cozy. We all loved it. We felt very comfortable. My grandkids were sad to leave. Went to Yosemite for snow and Bass lake to play some more. It was a great little get a way. I got my dates mixed up and the host was very accommodating and very receptive. Easy to contact. Thank you Dan for everything.

My family and I stayed here for our annual Bass Lake summer trip. The house was great, had enough room for all of us and the best part was the close proximity to Bass Lake. Daniel was super responsive when we reached out to him a few times. We had such a great trip!

Relaxing time at the lake
Despite a minor glitch that really differ affect our trip (other than adding some unexpected excitement), this was a nice getaway. The setup of the house is perfect for a family; a master suite upstairs, two bedrooms on the main floor and a kids bedroom downstairs with its own bathroom. Perfect for teens that want to do games and such without disturbing everyone else. It’s not right on the lake, but it is literally just a few minutes away (albeit not really walking distance). The kitchen was well apportioned, the outdoor grill is under a nice big canopy so out of the sun, everything was great. Highly recommended for families!

Shady Glenn is the best!
Took my family of 7 here for vacation and it was great. There was more than enough room for everyone and felt very welcoming. The lake was very close and it was very peaceful the whole time. Host was very communicative and very helpful. We enjoyed our time here and will be looking forward to booking again.

Cozy hideaway
Stayed 6 nights at the Shady Glenn. Beautiful well appointed cabin with a great front porch and deck in back. A group of deer passed through the yard a few times. Close to Yosemite entrance, and Wawona .Dan was a great host. Answers all questions and quickly responds. The true sign of a good rental is if it makes you as comfortable as you are at home.We felt right at home in a short time. Would stay there again👍

Comfortable, cozy house near the lake.
Visited with another couple. Spent half day on the lake in pontoon boat, and half day in our kayak on the lake. Beautiful and relaxing. House is cozy and comfortable. We had everything we needed. Great time.

This cabin was perfect for our family to gather! Plenty of space for us all to be together and play games and plenty of room for everyone to have their own space when needed. Daniel was a phenomenal host! We will definitely stay here, again!

White Christmas
This home was perfect for our family. Everyone had their own rooms. Snowball fights & sledding were a plus. We did not have to leave to get snow play.
Kids really enjoyed the place. The home was welcoming & clean. I hit a few hiccups & Daniel was patient with me. We were snowed in for a few hours the day of check out. Daniel offered us to stay a little longer. Luckily for us they plowed the roads by 1pm.
Definitely would suggest AWD or 4 wheel. Even with chains we could not tackle the hill lol.
Overall it was a wonderful experience & some great memories were made. Kitchen was fully stocked.
Thank you again Daniel.

Great Property for Exploring the Area
We stayed here primarily for its proximity to Bass lake, but it is also a great location for other places such as Yosemite. We were able to do so much during our stay here. Quick drive to the lake, close to the south entrance of the park and Grove, and a little over an hour to the valley floor without traffic. The home is very well appointed with everything needed, and exceptionally clean. My son absolutely loved the games and game room and keeps asking when we are going back. My wife and I enjoyed our quiet evenings on the deck doing puzzles under the fun lights. The neighborhood is quiet and friendly, and overall made for a very peaceful week. Fan was a great host with excellent communication, and made himself available if the need ever came up. That was nice peace of mind. Thank you, Dan. We will be back!

Wonderful home near Bass Lake
This is a great property! The home had everything we needed and worked well for all ages from the grandparents (bedrooms on ground floor) to my 12 year old son (board games, wii). Great outdoor sitting area. We were very grateful for the a/c when the temps got up to 102! Overall a lovely place to vacation at.

Wonderful home, quiet, spacious, well appointed, comfortable and looks like the pictures in the posting. It was a short distance to the lake which was fantastic. WiFi worked without a hitch and we loved BBQing almost every nights . We would love to come back! Thank you for a great stay.

The Shady Glenn is comfortable, cozy, and well appointed
Our family of 5 (2 parents, 3 teens) loved The Shady Glenn. The house was clean and very comfortable. 3 fireplaces made it so cozy, the beds were very comfortable, the kitchen had everything you need and the bathrooms were updated and clean. What a great cabin, we’d love to come back again! Maybe next time we’ll come in the summer to enjoy the fabulous deck. Thanks for a great time!
