We really enjoyed our stay at this rustic cabin. We booked late, and felt lucky to be able to stay in the park, especially when we saw the long lines to get in as we departed! The beds were especially comfortable, and wifi and television reception were fine. It was very clean and linens and towels were plentiful. Dishwasher and washer/dryer were much appreciated! I cooked and made picnic lunches with ease. As others noted, weathered wooden decks are prone to popped up nails, so shoes are a must. After you enter the park, the Wawona area is close, and from this cabin you can walk to Pine Tree Market for forgotten items. Just past this store, turn left to go toward Chilnualna Falls. It's a short distance by car to parking area and it's an easy walk to the falls. Mariposa Grove is back toward the south entrance, but I'd put it last on things to see in Yosemite. Still, it's a short drive and a shuttle bus will ferry you from the parking lot. The drive to Valley is maybe a bit longer than 35 minutes, but that's a close estimate.Get there early and keep your parking spot. Glacier Point Road is on the right before you get to the Valley entrance. Several miles down this road you'll get to Sentinel Dome and Glacier Point Overlook. -Sunset on Sentinel Dome is amazing (moderate 1+ mi. hike), viewing at Glacier Point overlook is at the parking area. Location of this cabin was excellent, and other than National Park sites, I didn't see other sites that would be appreciably closer.
