Amazing find. The cabin is updated and well taken care of. The staff is very friendly and accommodating. They freshen up the room everyday and provided us with breakfast items. If I ever go back to Yosemite I will definitely stay at Basecamp again. Five stars all around!

My family of 4 loves road trips, this time we had an epic one and thankfully The Hiker’s Cabin at Yosemite Base camp was exactly what we needed on this led of the trip. Our plan to hit all the major viewpoints throughout Yosemite over 2 and a half days was greatly helped by the space and amenities in this great little cabin. The most important things were clean comfy beds for all, and a full working kitchen to prepare our meals for the days ahead. A 4 burner gas stove, full size fridge/freezer, dishwasher, ample counter space for storage/prep, and all the pots/pans/utensils you need for most meals. There was a nice grill on the porch, but we didn’t make use of it. A/C worked great, ceiling fans (it was surprisingly warm in late September). A really nice touch was the granola and oat there for us, and some fruit as well as granola bars to take with us. Someone came during the day and replenished the stock of those items as well as freshen up the bedding, etc for our 3 night stay. They also had large stainless canteens in the cabinet that we packed out full and used constantly on our hikes/journeys. This was an underrated but HUGE amenity for us! I’m sure I am missing some details, but the most important part is that I would definitely stay again. Thank you Yosemite Basecamp!

Very unfortunate and bad experience at this property. No matter the situation / issue at hand - the way the lady at reception reacted to the whole situation was nothing short of nasty and offensive. Pls don’t book , if you have kids - as they write it in fine print and then blame you for not reading lengthy emails. The resolutions for “flouting” such an important rule was give me 100 $ per night OR get out of my property.So basically if one can extort money , then rules are bendable ! WOW , so much for rules ! Pls do yourself a favor and stay at the property next door with a lovely restaurant . This place could be good - but bad behavior on a vacation is NEVER WORTH the hassle !

The property is perfect and the price is very reasonable, especially cheap if you'd stay with four or six people. I hated that after booking and paying I get an email with instructions on checking in: uploading a copy of my drivers license, then filling in name and address and stuff too (like that's not on the drivers license) to get door code which did not work.

Clean, cute and convenient place. The host messaged us during our stay to see if we needed anything. The proximity to Tesla superchargers was an added bonus. Would definitely stay here again.

A Hidden Gem

The loft was perfect for our visit. It was spacious & cozy, had wonderful staff, nearby restaurants, and a short drive into Yosemite. The breakfast items provided gave us a great start to our day & the bath products gave us a relaxing soak after a day of hiking. There were plenty of TV channels & a nook with books and board games. Truly a hidden gem!
