If there is, the entire experience deserves it. The residence was immaculate, perfectly and wonderfully comfortable. The location within the park is a 5-star-plus attraction. We enjoyed spending time with Art, our host, who also provided great ideas for hikes in the park.

We had a beautiful time in the park. The property itself is gorgeous and Art’s home is clean, well-stocked, and cozy. Art himself is the best host I’ve ever had! He’s personable and offers great advice on all things Yosemite-related. We will be back in the near future!

Art’s place was gorgeous, clean, and uncluttered. He was a great host and we appreciated his hiking recommendations and letting us use the washer and dryer during our stay. The cabin is about 20 minutes from Yosemite Valley or Mariposa Grove. We stocked up on groceries at the closest town about an hour away, but there is also a grocery store in Yosemite Valley for things you forgot (including OTC meds, ready-to-eat food, etc). The bed was more firm than I’d normally prefer, but we were so tired from all the hiking that it didn’t matter. I slept like a rock :) Art provides pillows of different firmness, hair dryer, coffee maker with lots of options of pods, satellite tv, and a lovely back porch (plus more). My husband said I outdid myself when I found Art’s place. We could not have chosen a better home base for our trip to Yosemite!

Beautiful architecture and decor. Photos are an accurate depiction of the property. Property cleanliness is impeccable. Art was available for assistance when needed. King bed is a memory foam mattress. Unit size and layout is perfect for a couple to share the space with a feeling of modern living surrounded by forest tranquility.

it was a great location and property, the owner even had an ice bag for knees, and hiking poles and a cooler there if we needed them. Highly recommended! the owner was full of helpful advice.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Art’s property. The property is well maintained and every detail was thoughtfully put together by Art to make people feel at home while they are away. The property is nestled amongst the trees and all we could hear were birds chirping and a babbling brook behind the neighborhood. The bed is very comfortable and firm. The kitchen is fully equipped with top of the line appliances and cookware. Art is very helpful and knowledgeable about the area and more than happy to make recommendations for your stay. We loved the area and appreciated Art’s kindness.

It is a super comfortable home! Very well insulated. New appliances and cooking wear. Fantastic mattress. Modern and forest views. Beautiful location and by being at the end of a street super quite. I go to Yosemite about twice a year. I will rent it again

The wood furniture is very nice here. The place is the perfect size for 2 people. The kitchen was well equipped.

We loved staying in this property for our week in Yosemite! Art is a fantastic host, was very quick to answer all our questions, and even gave us great recommendations of places to visit while we were there. The home is very stylish - in particular we enjoyed the woodsy cabinets and tables, the locally made kitchenware, and the many large windows that make it feel like you're in the woods. The proximity to Yosemite Valley is also fantastic - it's only about a 30 minute drive to the Valley. And it's a beautiful drive, so if you're like us, you won't even mind having to make it every day. Overall this is a great property to stay at while visiting Yosemite - would certainly recommend.

Très belle maison; tranquillité assurée ! Près de la Vallée de Yosemite et à une vingtaine de minutes de Mariposa Grove. Bref, très bien située (à l'intérieur du parc ce qui permet d'éviter la file pour entrer dans le parc; fort appréciable). Art est très sympathique et avenant.

A gorgeous property an easy drive from Yosemite Valley. The owner was super helpful and responsive.

Great spot within the park with an easy drive into the village . Rental was super clean and had everything we needed for our stay. Definitely recommend !

Prior to our arrival to Art Haus Art's communication was excellent - in person he is a delight. The accommodations were as described. Keurig cups were provided but there is also a French press. With Art's direction we stopped at the Pioneer Market in Mariposa which is a gem and arrived with provisions for the week. Yosemite West is well located to experience most of the Park. We strongly suggest that you spend time at Art Haus.

Tremendous location and property. Very clean modern property set in the heart of Yosemite. We loved staying inside the park and within 10 minutes or so we were at the tunnel view every day. One drawback. Of you need to work at all online, it's not going to happen. This is definitely a place to get away from it all and disconnect from technology. Overall it is the perfect getaway for a couple.

My husband and I spent a week hiking in Yosemite. Art's home was the perfect place to come back to after an exhausting hike to relax. It's soooo clean and Art was a kind and very accommodating host. We will definitely be back.

Art is a fantastic host, and the property was perfect. Spotlessly clean, well stocked and quality cookware, and the heated floor in the bathroom was perfect for the winter mornings. Will be staying here again next winter!

This review is way over due but better late then never. We stayed here in October 2021. We felt like we were living in a tree house in the forrest. The place is perfect for two people who are visiting the park. It is immaculate and has everything you need. We arrived late in the evening because of bad weather (smoke from nearby fires) so we were unable to stop for food or groceries. Art offered a frozen pizza he had, but we declined because we had enough to get us through the night. In the morning there was a cooler on the porch with a dozen eggs and vegetables to make omelettes for breakfast and to use on our travels to the park if we needed it. Art was so helpful with suggestions for the day, he told us what parts of the park would be best to avoid the smoke. He was so very interesting to listen to and very passionate about the park and the area in which he lived. We knocked on his door (he lived right below the unit) every day with questions and he answered every one with excitement. I would highly recommend this property.

We arrived at night so we didn't get a full glimpse of the Yosemite West neighborhood or the other properties til the morning, but it is a great location tucked into the park. Art Haus is sunny during the day and dark and peaceful at night. We slept great each night, ready for our hiking adventures during the day. We'd return home by dark and relax and make dinner. The house is such a great sleek modern design without anything fussy but has everything we needed. I would stay there again and will definitely tell others about it. I liked the location as well, we only had to drive around 30 minutes to get to different hiking spots (maybe an hour on one of the days) but that is considering the roads that go in and out of the park which are very windy and require going slower at times. It's a gorgeous drive in the fall and we loved everything about our stay.

This property is just stunning. Art has put so much time and detail into this property and it shows! A peaceful paradise in Yosemite. And sooooo clean, Art really takes pride in his property. You will not be disappointed.

The house was the most beautiful place I’ve ever stayed in and the host was friendly and attentive. Perfect stay.

Art was the best host and we couldn't have asked for a better place to stay for our trip to yosemite. There aren't enough words of appreciation. We hope to be back very soon!

The place was spotlessly clean. It even had a Pine Sol clean smell when you walked in. The layout & furniture was very comfortable & the kitchen was fully stocked with dishes/pots/glasses, etc. The location in West Yosemite is ideal. You are about 10 minutes from Glacier Point Road, so that part of the park is very convenient. (and, in our opinion, much more beautiful). You are about 35-40 minutes from Yosemite Valley. The road can be a bit tricky down & back, so not something you would want to do more than once (or twice). Definitely stock up on groceries before you come - restaurants are nonexistent. Also, internet is spotty in Yosemite. Art has a booster at his place for Verizon, but we have AT&T, so it was very fast at times & didn't work other times. This was a wonderful place to unwind after a full day of hiking. It's very peaceful and relaxing. The only issue we had was the mattress - it was a little too hard for us.

Our stay at Art's modern home in Yosemite was wonderful. The house is very clean and well kept. It has everything you need for a great stay. Art is a fantastic host and very responsive. The house is inside the Yosemite National Park gates so a reservation to the park is not necessary and the location provides great access to all areas of the park. Would highly recommend.

One word comes to mind: FANTASTIC! Art's home is wonderfully fresh and inviting...with perfect lighting, vaulted ceilings, new appliances, and a GREAT host. Art is a fantastic builder with attention to detail, and a great person to get to know. Our 5-day stay, in a beautiful part of the country, Yosemite West, made our vacation one to remember. Thank you Art! Christine & Laurence

This property is exactly what we needed and expected. Art is an excellent host and his home is beautiful. Every detail in this home is top quality right down to the bedding and towels. It was located in the perfect spot for us......midway between Wawona and Yosemite Valley. Thanks to Art for sharing. We hope to return someday.

My husband and I had an amazing trip due in large part to the accommodations provided by Art at this property. The house was in the perfect location for all of the things we wanted to do during our stay in Yosemite. This property is inside of Yosemite Park and was within a half hour drive to all of the hikes and views we wanted to see. Art is very hospitable and friendly, and went out of his way to make sure we had an enjoyable stay. The house is perfect for two people. It is very clean and comfortable. Art gave personal recommendations for places to visit during our stay, which we really appreciated. The next time we travel to Yosemite, we will definitely be looking to stay at Art's place again!

My now husband and I were looking for a fresh, modern home inside Yosemite to stay during the week of our wedding. We are so grateful to have found Art’s place. The windows let in the most beautiful natural light in the morning and evening, accompanied by a luscious view of the forest. We thoroughly enjoyed being able to step out onto the patio for our morning coffee to soak up the stillness, fresh air, and the occasional deer sighting. The kitchen was stocked with all the basics needed for cooking and the fridge held all the food and drinks we brought for our stay. The home also provides access to WiFi which was a plus! We also really appreciated Art’s unique touches in the home (mood lighting and touch-screen vanity mirror). We were able to enjoy all Yosemite had to offer in style. The home is located about 35-40 minutes from the valley and is also extremely close to the road that provides access to Glacier Point. It’s a wonderful location and more than we could have asked for. Lastly, we had a chance to speak with Art in person and he was so kind and friendly. You can tell that he thoroughly enjoys hosting his guests and sharing the wonder that is Yosemite.

We had a wonderful time at this beautifully designed cabin. The location, which is only a short drive from the Yosemite Valley and right next to the Glacier Point road, was an ideal. Art’s work building this house and his attention to detail will leave you inspired. Sitting on the deck gave us a great view of the nature outside and the incredible night’s sky after dark. I would highly recommend this location for any couples looking for a quiet and peaceful getaway to explore Yosemite.

We had a wonderful stay at Art's Haus. The unit is clean, well cared for and in the perfect location. Art, the owner, is just a great person to deal with. Extremely helpful and a joy to deal with and to get to know. I'd highly recommend staying here if you have the opportunity.

My husband and i came to Yosemite for Valentine’s Day/fire fall. We had stayed in this neighborhood before but didn’t realize how large it actually is. This cute little house is at the very end of the neighborhood. This is a brand new home with lots of work and love put into it. The whole vibe is so inviting! The windows are huge, with nothing but trees and forest, it feels so secluded like you’re the only ones around! The kitchen came fully stocked, the couch is super comfy, and we were able to watch ace ventura on the direct tv while drinking the complimentary wine that the host left for us! Last i want to mention the host. Art built this place himself. He was so attentive and we were lucky enough to meet him during our stay. The pamphlet he left on the counter gives a run down on the entire place. He is environmentally friendly, he gives recommendations on hiking, places to eat, and hidden gems (he’s a local so he knows). He went above and beyond to make our stay amazing. Art is a great dude, and if you have a chance to meet him, I’m sure you’ll agree!We will definitely be back! Thanks art!!

With everything going on with Covid, it was a true pleasure to stay in Art's house for a week. There were no complications, no issues, nothing to worry about. I was able to enjoy my vacation and enjoy the Park, stress-free. Couldn't have asked for anything more!
