Description of the Yosemite National Pk vacation home rental

"A Mellow Mixture of Comfort and Class, LOVED it!"

Wonderful and welcoming, Vineyard View Vacation Rental is set in the center of eight magnificent acres amongst majestic Oaks, Cedars and Pines with spectacular distant views of a mountain vineyard and beyond. This gorgeous home is a delightful retreat for couples, families, and friends traveling together who wish to be close to
Yosemite while enjoying the luxury, comfort, and onvenience of their own private vacation home. Vineyard View comfortably accommodates up to seven adults, plus children. "How can you stand not living here'" (A recent guest asked upon arrival)

Ideally located near Yosemite National Park, Vineyard View is a remarkable 3 bedroom, 2 bath home built in the post Gold Rush era that has been tastefully renovated with impeccable style and modern amenities while retaining its original architectural allure. It is spacious, comfortable, tastefully furnished and has an incredible chef's kitchen, large and open with picture windows
overlooking the peaceful garden and down upon the beautiful Butterfly Creek Winery and beyond.

Two King, one Queen and one twin bed with two full baths, this home can comfortably accommodate a maximum of eight guests.

"We could not have asked for a better place, we felt at home & everything was so clean and nice. The kids had a lot of fun with all the toys and no words can describe that swing in the yard! We loved it, we loved it, we LOVED it." 9/06

All new appliances and cabinetry, fabulous new tile countertops, extensive cooking utensils and a delightful dining area that comfortably seats up to eight. Original hardwood floors, large stone fireplace, Piano and abundant over-sized picture windows make this an exclusive, one-of-a-kind mountain getaway.

The Master bedroom has an Eastern King bed, vanity sink, sitting area and plentiful windows that treat guests to the magnificent views of the winery and grounds. The second bedroom has a CA King bed, private reading area and equally plentiful picture windows with delightful views, these two rooms share the lovely hall bath that is
all new, complete with a claw foot tub below a picture window with private view, corner shower and mosaic tile floor.

There is a deluxe, Oak Queen size Wall-Bed in the living room, guests staying here have a door between this room and the hallway that offers total privacy from the other two bedrooms when closed. An added benefit of the wall-bed is its romantic proximity to the lovely, stone fireplace and floor to ceiling windows with incredible, distant views.

There is also a quaintly done bedroom in the large utility room where guests using the Wall-Bed can enjoy a private place for their personal belongings as well as their own lovely, full bath and a twin size bed for quiet afternoon naps.

Guests here can experience a day in Yosemite National Park just 26 miles away and return home to sit back on the Verandah in the comfortable, white wicker furniture and enjoy the sun setting over the peaceful garden and VIEW with the whispering winds blowing softly through the trees.

You can also enjoy a leisurely stroll through the trees or down the storybook lane to the tasting room of the award winning, Butterfly Creek winery. Enjoy Sensational sunsets, serenity, and the sound of the Seasonal Creek outside your bedroom window or relax in the elegant claw foot tub while daydreaming out the garden window beside
you.

We welcome and encourage those traveling with young children and offer the use of a variety of baby/child items such as safety gates, highchair, booster seat, crib, porta-crib/playpen, stroller and lots of books & toys, all of which can be cumbersome and difficult to travel with.

The home is exceptionally child friendly and thoughtfully baby-proofed, we have play yard equipment, sand box, cars to ride in etc. for the smaller children and if you're traveling with older children who need room to explore, there are lots of trails to follow, trees to climb, Ping Pong to play, a swing for fun and more here to keep
them occupied while you sit back, relax, and enjoy the views...

While vacationing at Vineyard View Vacation Rental, you 'll avoid both the crowds, and the traffic and yet Yosemite National Park is only a 30 mile drive away via the beautiful 'all weather highway which meanders through the Wild and Scenic Merced River Canyon.

Located at 2900 ''' in elevation it does get an occasional, yet manageable amount of snow without causing difficult access or travel. A plethora of trees and the valley below provide welcome shade and afternoon breezes on those hot, sultry summer days.

The Merced River Recreation Area at Briceburg is just 8 miles away and has small, sandy beaches just perfect for picnics, wading, and summertime swimming. The river is also great for fishing, hiking, camping, wild life viewing, and for the even more adventurous, white-
water rafting And kayaking. There are several commercial rafters who provide Trips down portions of the river.

The surrounding area offers a myriad of activities and adventure, we provide guests with a book full of endless suggestions of places to go and great, lesser known things to do.

You can easily enjoy Yosemite's south entrance from here too which is up Hwy. 41, outside of Oakhurst. Traveling that direction you 'll find things to see and do such as the world famous Mariposa Grove 's Giant Sequoias, Goat Meadow Winter Sports Area where you can cross-country ski or let the kids play and sled in the snow, beautiful
Bass Lake with its water sports, beaches and restaurants and the historic Sugar Pine Railroad adventure, just to name a few.
