Half Dome Hideaway is a deluxe, custom built, 3 story, 3 bedroom, 3 bathroom 2,500 square foot home located 2 miles from the South entrance to Yosemite National Park. We've worked hard to have one of the NICEST homes in the area. Everything is first class including our customer service. We have a new central heating and AC system throughout the house. We have 6 modern flat screen, smart TVs on 4 receivers, a well equipped game room, unlimited hot water and custom wiring and lighting. See our pictures for more details and read our stellar reviews. Our beautiful home is located in the quiet little town of Fish Camp, California at 5,100' elevation.

Each of the 3 floors has an extra-large bedroom, large bed(s), full bathroom, TV and large closet. Complimentary secure wireless internet (WiFi) is included and available everywhere on the property.
We have a first class 60Amp/220V, level 2 EV charging station with a 24' cord set up for all cars. That gives you a robust 11Kw capacity.
The main (middle) floor has the master bedroom, bathroom, fully equipped kitchen, dining area and cozy living room with a beautiful, easy to use, gas fireplace. The kitchen has a 3'x5' "island" topped with a laminated solid oak cutting board. The dining room has a solid oak table with seating for 8. This main floor has a large front deck with 2 tables, chairs, 2 chaise lounges and a large gas BBQ with utensils. There is also a private backyard with chairs.

Our home has the biggest "on demand" water heater available for unlimited hot water. We recently put in large, tall toilets with "elongated bowls" for your comfort and convenience. Two of the bathrooms have built-in heaters in addition to the central heat/AC. This home is very well furnished and comes with everything you need to have a great time at Yosemite, Bass Lake and the surrounding mountain areas.
Anne and I have lived and worked in these mountains for 40 years, are well connected and will be glad to advise you on all of the amazing activities inside and around Yosemite.

A half mile from the house is the Tenaya Lodge that has 2 restaurants as well as a deli. There's also a large bar, and pizza parlor on the property. They also have a fully equipped, luxurious spa.
Our family home has always been an allergen free environment so we insist on no smoking inside the house and NO PETS of any kind. There are ash trays conveniently located outside every entrance for those that want to smoke. We don't allow parties. This will be strictly enforced, NO EXCEPTIONS.
It has a nicely built, but steep lower driveway. 9-passenger vans have made it up to the top and turned around but that is pretty tight. RV's need to park on the street if that's what you are travelling in. The upper parking areas are level and have parking for 2 cars/vans or 3 smaller cars. See photos.

Annual Family Vacation
Our family of 6 adults and one 4 year old had a wonderful time at the house. For the last 4 years we have been going to different National Parks and staying in vacation rentals. This home was wonderful for family meals and for playing games in the evenings. The location was great for entrance on the west side of Yosemite. The house was overall clean and had all the amenities that are needed to stay and make family breakfasts and dinners. Everything was in working order and no issues occurred. Thorn was wonderful in his communication to us and it was nice to talk with the owner of the home and not an agent. Thank you Thorn for all of your insight on adventures in the area! Would definitely stay there again with our family.

Labor Weekend getaway
We enjoyed our 3 day stay at this Fish Camp property. The amenities were plenty to provide all the comforts of a home away from home for all ages. A bedroom in each of the 3 floors were comfortable and afforded privacy with each one having their own bathroom. Living room furniture was very comfortable and spacious. A TV in every room. The pool table was enjoyable for the kids to play with. The propane BBQ on the deck was easy to use. And they had an EV charging unit on the premise that made it easy for my Tesla to charge overnight. The location within Fish Camp made everything nearby attractions very accessible and a short drive for a day trip. The owners were also very thorough and responsive to any questions in a timely fashion. I would recommend this place and plan to be back again.

Family summer vacation
The cabin was beautiful and well equipped! It had everything you could want for a vacation. The owner was very nice and you could tell there was a lot of care put into the property. Our main goal was to visit Yosemite and the property is only a few minutes to the gate. However, once in the gate it is about an hour drive through the mountains to the more popular attractions of Yosemite. Would definitely book the cabin again, but if we want to visit Yosemite I think we will stay inside the park.

Handy to Yosemite south entrance
We loved our stay at the Half-Dome Hideaway! We all had our own bedrooms and bathrooms, and the location was so close to the south Yosemite entrance. It took about 5 minutes to get there, and then Mariposa is right after that. We were also very close to the Tenaya Resort and the Yosemite Trails horseback riding. You really wouldn't even need to go into Yosemite to find fun things to do! This home was fully-appointed, clean, quiet, and comfortable. Highly recommend!

Great Stay - I get why it's 10/10
We stayed at Thorn and Anne's place for 4 nights / 5 days for a Yosemite trip. Location: very convenient, only 6 minutes from the south entrance and there is a corner store just down the street. We did the Sugar Pine train ride which was also about 5-10 min from the house. House: one room/bathroom /floor, which was great for 3 couples. Plenty of entertainment like a piano, pool table, puzzle, and open kitchen and living room. The back deck was especially nice. But the main reason for the 10/10 would be the host communication. Not only were they prompt and attentive communicators, they went above and beyond, such as ensuring we had the right park pass, reserved time into Yosemite, detailed instructions on the driveway. If they had additional properties, i would stay there too!

Thorn and Anne's Cabin
The on-line description is dead accurate. The cabin is spacious and clean. 3 ample size bedrooms each with full baths on separate floors. Great water pressure in the showers with almost instant hot water. Kitchen is fully equipped, with a gas grill outside. The only utensil missing was a metal spatula for the outside grill. We did not melt the plastic one...The driveway is very steep up to the property and we parked the car at the bottom after the first day as the engine strained to make it up the driveway. This was not a big issue for us. Convenient location to the South entrance and located right next to the general store in Fish Camp. So if you needed anything, it is only a 3 minute walk to the store. Highly recommended.

Lovely house in the woods!
Multi-generational family group in the area for a wedding at Tenaya Lodge. The owner was a wellspring of information about the house and the Yosemite area, super helpful. The house is clean and comfortable for a family group. We had everything we needed and the owners were accessable. The only additional feedback I have is that the driveway of this property is VERY steep. Not an issue for most folks, but we were a bit concerned about our 80+ yo mother and aunt navigating the space. Also, guests with multiple cars may require some effort to get organized for parking. Overall, a lovely stay!

Unfortunately, our stay was marred by a wildfire in Yosemite. Thorn went above and beyond to answer our questions. He gave us excellent, thorough information about the area, and gave great directions and information about the park itself! We did end up canceling the trip a a result of the wildfire. and Thorn made that process as easy as possible. We will definitely be back when things aren't on fire!

Excellent Help in Difficult Time
From the minute I booked the property to the day of my arrival, Thorn and Anne went above and beyond with communication. First, I was provided very detailed information about how to access the best areas of Yosemite and when and how to get my reservation pass. The property owners checked in with me periodically leading up to my trip. Unfortunately on the day of my arrival, wildfires made accessing the cabin impossible. Thorn and Anne were so great at helping me navigate the cancellation process when they clearly had bigger issues to deal with as the fire was very close to their property. I will definitely book with them on my next trip to Yosemite.
