Great cabin, especially for families with small children. Has its own little playground! Very well stocked. Just minutes to the lake. Owner responds to questions quickly.

The house was clean and stocked with everything needed. Couches were comfy and was nice to come back and relax on them after time at the lake. The projector screen was nice once we figured out how to Stream our phones to it and the WiFi was strong too. Would have been nice to have some directions on how to do that, spent some time trying to figure it out. Being that it was so hot this week, the house was like an oven when we first arrived and took a while for it to cool down but once we got it cooled off it was comfortable. Nice that there was a lot of firewood cut up and available for use. Fridge and stove were all clean. Overall, house was very clean and cozy for myself and my two kids. Would stay here again.

Our stay at the property was passable but it wasn't great. The outside of the property was dirty. The outdoor furniture did not look as though it had been wiped down for springtime use or guest. Cobwebs, dust and dirt covered the patio and all of the furniture. The description of the house should include that there is no TV. While we were not there to watch TV, it is nice to be able to turn on the news in the morning when you are getting ready or have a sitcom on at night while you're winding down. It would have been a nice heads up that there is no TV. Since there is a cleaning fee charged to the guest in addition to the nightly charge, I'm not sure why guests are asked to wipe down things before they leave. Would not stay here again.

The is very comfortable from the livingroom abd all the beds. Very clean and well stocked. My communication with Nancy was prompt and pleasant. I was here with 5 of my teen grandsons and they hiked from here and enjoyed the firepit after dark. I highly recommend this cabin for a cozy stay.

Wedding & Yosemite
We came to Bass Lake for a wedding, but since it was such a long way (driving from Colorado), we decided to stay a few extra days to go to Yosemite. The home was a restful cozy nest after a bust school year. Thank you!

We were at Bass lake for a half marathon and visit to Yosemite.
Perfect location. Home well stocked with more than expected or needed. Sofas were cozy comfy napping or reading places. Our host responded to questions and concerns promptly. Since we were all adults recommend no more than 2 vehicles for parking.

Good location near the lake and Yosemite!
Overall we enjoyed our stay at the property but it is worth noting that the second bathroom is located outside the main house in the laundry room which was not appealing to us.
It was within walking distance to lake which was great and we loved the projector screen to watch movies at night.

Lovely cabin for a family vacation
Everyone loved this property. It was beautiful and very clean. The garden was adorable and there was a play yard for children. The hostess thought of everything one could possibly need if forgotten at home. If we ever come here again, we will definitely stay here.

All around terrific vacation spot
We had a wonderful stay at this cottage. Home was very clean and showed pride of ownership. Kitchen was well supplied, and plenty of towels/TP, etc. Had a very cute garden and outdoor space that kept our kids busy. Communication with host was excellent. Check-in/out was easy.

The property is pretty clean and the owner is very responsive. It's just a couple of minutes driving to the lake and Oakhurst. We enjoyed our stay.

good value
We had a pleasant stay at the property. The cabin was clean and in a good location. It has one full bathroom, and another half bathroom outside the cabin that is shared by tenants in the first floor; which made it somewhat inconvenient in cold nights.

A peaceful mtn retreat.
Our fam of 5 wanted desperately to hide in the mtns like sasquatches per covid guidelines. We brought clothes and food and took advantage of the sless traveled south side of the Yosemite Mtns. The drive was easy and traffic free since it was the southern route away from Yosemite's main entrance and Sac and Tahoe traffic. We sled all day down untouched mtns and came back to a woodstove warm home with boardgames and movie nights and cozy feels. It was splendid and memorable. Thank you!

Cozy winter getaway
Spent the weekend here after a significant winter storm in the region. Kids wanted to see and play in the snow and there was plenty of it. The home is very cozy and comfortable. The wood stove kept us warm. The house was fully stocked with blankets, pillows, and towels. Kitchen had everything you need. No need to bring anything up except your clothes and food. Only drawback is parking when there is snow in the area. Spent the first hour there digging out parking spots along the access road as we could not make it up the grade leading up to the house. We had a great time and would definitely stay here again.

Awesome Family Hangout!
This place was great. Nancy was super accommodating with the fires/air quality, and very clear with check-in and check-out instructions. The house was kid-friendly with toys, a swing set, and a projector screen. There was even an apple tree. The place is central to hikes and the lake, and only 20 minutes from the gate at Yosemite. We’ll be back for sure!

Quiet retreat minutes from the lake fun
Lovely cabin with all the amenities and comfort we wanted after a day in Yosemite or playing in the water. Very clean, well equipped kitchen, stocked pantry, great bbq, and fire pit. We didn't manage to get the projector to play streamed movies smoothly, but that was not a big deal for us - we played board and card games, made s'mores, and read books instead :) The wifi was fast enough for streaming on individual devices, but some devices did not connect to it (did not find it, not sure why). Notably we did not have cellular service at the cabin (and only spotty around the lake) so recommend making sure you have made contact with the owner and everything is clear about check-in before you leave. We made the mistake of assuming the check-in email from vrbo had all the information we needed, which together with a scheduling miss left us locked out and without the ability to get in contact with the owner. Lots of frustration and hours on the phone with vrbo (from a spot by the lake where we had service) finally resulted in that we got in contact with the owners and they turned out to be absolutely lovely, very apologetic, and rushed to our rescue and compensated us well for the mishap. So no shadow falls on them (vrbo could have been clearer in the communications though).
Warmly recommend this place for a relaxing home away from home stay at Bass Lake!!

Beautiful Home
We enjoyed our stay at Sparrow's Rest very much! The attention to detail and well-stocked kitchen had everything we needed to feel at home and comfortable. The garden was beautiful, and the patio area was perfect for enjoying morning coffee, as well as roasting s'mores at night! We had a great experience at Bass Lake and highly recommend this location.

Best place to stay at Bass Lake!
We loved this house! It was perfect for our family! It was walking distance to the lake and great hikes. We enjoyed s’mores by the fire pit at night. It rained the second night so we stayed in and watched Scooby Doo movie on the projector, which we all thought was super cool! Overall, the best place to stay at Bass Lake!

Christmas break getaway
We spent a few days here after Christmas. The toys in the back were perfect for the kids, they had a blast. Even though we didn’t get any snow, we were only 15 minutes from it so the kids still had a blast. House was spacious, super cute, and had everything we neeeded! Would definitely stay here again.

Sparrow's Rest Winter Wonderland!
My sister's families and I celebrated Thanksgiving at Sparrow's Nest and had a wonderful time. The cabin/house is very roomy yet extremely warm and thoughtfully furnished and decorated. Since it was fairly cold and we had 3 days of magical snow, the wood and wood burning stove were greatly appreciated. The house is in a good location, easy to find, and had beautiful views of the snow covered trees. Access to get into the property was easy. The owner was very helpful, thoughtful and quick to respond to any questions we had. Thank you Nancy, we talked about wanting to come back.

Great get-away
We have been coming up to Bass Lake for years and Nancy's property was one on the best we have stayed in. Clean, roomy, and well equipped. The garden was lovely. Wished we would have been able to stay longer in this gem of cabin! We hope to get back next year!

Relaxing Home
Sparrow’s Rest was our home away from home. It was spacious, clean and very comfortable, from the beds to the sofas. We loved the decor inside and out. Although there were homes right next door, the outside area/garden felt very private and the neighbors were quiet. It was nice to be able to walk to the lake.
