Yosemite West House | Rare 2 King Bedrooms, INSIDE Yosemite Gates, No Stairs to Enter

2 Bedroom House in Yosemite West, Yosemite

Planning a visit to Yosemite? Adventure Awaits! With its majestic vistas, powerful waterfalls, outstanding recreation and connections to history, few places refresh the spirit like the treasured Yosemite National Park.
Of course you’ll want a perfect home base, and our Royal Retreat offers something very rare - a two-bedroom modern mountain home inside Yosemite gates, that is peaceful and avoids crowds and lines. Boasting two king bedrooms, Royal Retreat is perfect for two couples. Located at 5,500 feet, it provides an escape from the heat on the Valley floor in the summer and proximity to fun at Badger Pass in the winter.
Located inside the park gates, in the Yosemite West neighborhood, Royal Retreat is approximately 20-30 minutes from popular attractions, including the Valley floor and its breathtaking waterfalls, Glacier Point, and the Mariposa Grove of Giant Sequoia Trees. It sure beats long drives from outside the gates or sitting in lines for hours! Even lodging just a few miles outside the gates can mean over 1-hour waits or being forced to start vacation days before 7 am to beat the crowds. Not very easy for most families to manage! Not so at Royal Retreat; Start each day on your own schedule.
Royal Retreat is a modern home. You can feel the care that went into each detail, from the rustic Shaker-style cabinets and doors to the handmade wooden staircase. One of the unique features is you do not climb stairs to access the front door. This is rare in our area; most rentals are on a hill, and you haul your bags up flights of stairs to enter. Also unique is central air conditioning for your comfort, more functional than mini-splits and not common in our area. Royal Retreat's guest bedroom, which offers a king-size bed, is on the first floor with a bathroom right across the hall, making it perfect for guests who are less mobile.
In terms of amenities, Royal Retreat offers luxury upon luxury. The home is fully equipped - towels, linens, dishes, cookware. You only need to bring yourself, your food/drink, and a good time!
Royal Retreat offers beautiful views of the forest from its rooms. The living room and loft are especially relaxing; both receive ample sunlight and showcase peaceful views of the trees surrounding the property. If you want to grill, the covered deck gives you the luxury of being outside, while still providing shelter from the sun or rain.
We have another unit on site-Serenity Suite, directly below Royal Retreat. All of your space is separate and private including your parking area, entrance and deck. You will not need to interact with other guests, but consideration for those living below you is appreciated.
Royal Retreat is already booking for the 2024 season. Contact us today to make your reservation!
