Extension cord leading through the bathroom window made the room cold. Noisy heater but otherwise well equipped.

I enjoyed my stay.
I didn’t receive enough information about which cabin I was staying in to be able to find it easily.
Some of The lights in Bassett’s cabin were not working properly.
My interaction by phone with management was very cordial and friendly

Really enjoyed our stay. The place was clean and very well stocked. Excellent location.
Would have liked some communication closer to my stay just to confirm things.

My family has been coming to the Redwoods at Wawona for over 30 years. I chose your cabin because of the pictures and the good reviews. The cabin was great. It has been completely updated. The kitchen was great. Bathroom too. The bed was comfortable. I will book this for my next visit.

Our cabin was perfect for our week in Yosemite. Everything was well appointed; we had everything in the kitchen we needed. We loved having access to a grill for dinner, and our location right across from the Pine Tree Market was so convenient.

My husband and I enjoyed a one-week stay at Whispering Pines. The cabin was clean and well maintained. The kitchen, fully stocked. The mattress was firm which we appreciated after a day of hiking. The only downside was the lack of laundry facilities. We usually do laundry mid-week to minimize checked bags on our flights.
WiFi was excellent. We were able to stream YouTube TV and do WiFi calling on our cell phones (Verizon had signal, T-Mobile did not).
Because the cabin is located inside Yosemite National Park, we avoided a daily wait in traffic for park entrance. Note that the drive into Yosemite Valley can take up to an hour each way. We alternated day trips to Glacier Point, Washburn Point, and Sentinel Dome with days exploring around Wawona. The Wawona Meadow Loop was a nice warm up hike for us. The Chilnualna Falls trail head is only 0.5 miles from the cabin and the Mariposa Sequoia Grove is about 5 miles away. We found the Wawona History Center interesting, too.
The Pine Tree Market is just a 2-minute walk from the cabin. It has most anything you’ll need or forgot to buy at the larger grocery stores on your way in. On Wednesday and Sunday mornings, check out “Coffee with a Ranger”. It’s a Q&A with lots of great tips on visiting Yosemite.
Overall, a very nice cabin in a great location!

We had a wonderful time staying at the Whispering Pines lodging. Having our own access to checking in was an amazing option and allowed for us to not have to rush to get into the cabin. The cabin was clean and tidy for our use, with many optional amenities available. the cabin provided us with the creature comfort of a home away from home.
Would definitely recommend friends and family to stay here and for us to stay there again!

It was an amazing time for my wife and I to celebrate 40 years of marriage together. The cabin was perfect! Charming but not austere. It was tastefully decorated, modernly equipped, and clean and neat. The owners and property managers thought of almost anything you would need. The staff was ready and available and very professional. We will definitely come back!

Different color towels so that we don’t get them mixed up.

What a lovely cabin! It was clean, a great kitchen with nice utensils . (would have liked a colander for draining pasta and a kettle for tea- an item common in English and South African households but have not seen travelling in the USA). Good communication with the host Steve as a TV repair man had to come in . Was a wonderful stay in such a beautiful national park and if we ever come back to this part of the world, will definately stay there again! Will highly recommend to my friends.

Not much to tell. We were invited to share some time in Yosemite Valley with friends and this was open. It was all good: Within park boundaries (which matters in Yosemite these days), clean, generously laid out, very well appointed (my gf says the best of any comparable shes seen), a ~35m drive to the Valley, which was both close enough and away enough. Only drawback I noticed: The smoke detector is so close to the toaster that my English muffin tripped it. :-) We plan/hope to return!

We really enjoyed it! The cabin had everything we needed and was very nice to come back to after spending the day at the park.
We did try to go to the river but what we thought was the closed road on the directions said private property so Im not sure if we were in the wrong place or what.

Great lodging, VERY clean and nice. Loved having the back deck and grill and walk to the falls was close and nice to to after a long day at the parks. The pine market also has absolutely anything one could need. Bed was very comfortable which is a rare find. Would definitely stay here again.

My first time to Yosemite, it was awesome.
Your house is very cozy. My kids where staying right down the street on Maraposa.
They loved it too. Looks like you will have future guests.
Thanks

Great cabin. Everything was clean and as described. We wouldnt hesitate to return. It might be good to note that the bedroom is cold during the winter due to the distance from the main heater.

We loved how well stocked and clean our cabin was. We loved how convenient it was to walk to Pine Tree market and the great selection of products that the market offered. We loved the quaint and quiet community of Wawona, the proximity of the Yosemite trails, and especially the close river access.

The cabin was updated, well stocked, and clean. It would have been great to have info there on where to take recycling. We threw away recyclables before we saw a sign at the store on recycling locations. Thanks for a great stay!

Very nice, clean and comfortable. Easy to travel to the park from the cabin. We used the well equipped kitchen and barbecue a lot to cook dinner. We enjoyed both balconies depending the time of the day.

Wonderful experience in our cabin! Very close proximity to the beautiful Merced River, and less than 1 hour drive to the heart of Yosemite Valley. Overall, the cabin had everything you would need, including a fully functional kitchen, bathroom, and comfortable bed

We truly had the best time staying in this cabin. We were very satisfied with the cleanliness of the cabin, as well as the amenities and household items provided. We were very comfortable and happy with our stay. We wish we had more time to explore the town, but loved what we saw. It was very quiet and serene.

The only problem was the internet wasn't working the day we checked in. But it was fixed the next day.
