The location is beautiful. It is relatively close to Yosemite, Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks. You still need to drive a distance, but the drives are beautiful. The location is very clean and Bob is a really nice host. We enjoyed having our morning coffee outside overlooking the beautiful mountain view. Has a small well equipped kitchen and an outdoor grill if you want to eat in. We will definately return.

We absolutely loved our stay and didn't want to leave. The studio was in the most perfect location and was so romantic and cozy feeling! The owner Bob was very friendly and great! This place will always hold a special place in my husband and I's hearts and we will definitely be staying here again. Due to COVID we had some changes to our initial wedding ideas and ended up having a Zoom wedding inside this studio and in front of the beautiful little fireplace. We couldn't have asked for a more special day. Thank you Bob and we will be back! Hopefully for our 1 year wedding anniversary on 2-22-22!! Until next time....

We were met personally by Bob and given many suggestions on the area. The setting is remote and quiet and the view is spectacular. We used it as a base camp for our daily trips to Yosemite, Bass Lake and Fresno. Felt like home. So much better to come back to than a hotel room. So nice to be able to cook and not have to eat out every night. You can't go wrong with this rental

Beautiful place in a gorgous setting. While we enjoyed our stay very much, we did feel it was a bit overpriced and not suitable for more than two people.

Perfect for visits to Yosemite
My wife and I stayed here for two nights and we both agree it was the perfect choice. Bob has put together a comfortable home away from home. It's easy to see his commitment to quality and attention to detail in the construction of this studio apartment.
Yosemite is a short, relaxing drive away making this the perfect base camp for visits to the park. Other attractions like Bass Lake are also nearby.
Bob is the perfect host--even though we had not met before this visit, we felt like we were staying with a long-time family friend.
I have no hesitation giving this retreat my highest recommendation. You will not be disappointed!

Relaxing Loft
We can not say enough about this vacation rental. It was everything it was pictured to be and more. This rental was recommended to us and it definitely met our expectations. It was very clean and had all the amenities. We had everything we needed for a great vacation....Bob, the owner, had the loft stocked with all those little things you need but you don't want to bring/or you forget....like plastic wrap and sweeteners and more. We traveled to Yosemite each day about a 35 to 45 minute drive to the entrance. Each day we arrived home exhausted, so it was nice to have such a great place to sit outside and enjoy the view and relax. We definitely would like to come back for another stay and have some other site seeing on our list such as Bass Lake(which we found was very close!) and other places we found in the great info packet Bob had assembled.

Great studio and host
This was a perfect place for our week visiting Yosemite. Comfortable with all needs met. Did a lot of driving and returned "home" each day to a very relaxing place. Bob was available for giving advice and asking if we needed anything...kind of unusual and special treatment for vacation renters. Thanks, Bob!

Great Thanksgiving
My wife and I had the opportunity to rent this wonderful place for Thanksgiving and we have a wonderful time. It is nestled in a very quite area and has a big open space around. We reached in the afternoon and had some high quality time in the yard sipping wine on the picnic tables and watching the birds - was a little chilly, but I enjoy that. The view was gorgeous.
The suite is quite big, with a nice fireplace, kitchen, bed and bath area. Its about an hour from the Yosemite National park, but we did commute the distance twice. Is gets eerily quite at night - which we enjoyed.
Thanks

So much better...
So much better then a hotel stay, the fine touches in this studio really make the place feel like home. Bob did a wonderful job when he designed and built this place to share with us travelers. The location is wonderful, the surroundings are peaceful, and the host is one the best. We had such a wonderful time that I expect we will return sometime soon. I definitely would recommend this place to everyone!

Stunning view...Perfect Getaway
This place has the WOW factor. The house is stunning and the studio was perfect for our 4 night stay. Bob has provided everything you need for a short or long term stay. The view from the balcony is spectacular, the lounge area and pool was a great spot to relax and sip a cocktail. My husband and I went to Yosemite twice. One day to Glacier Pt. and to hike Sentinal Dome, the other to hike Vernal Falls...This hike was pretty strenuous, and I thought I was in good shape..Bob took us to Angel Falls on our last day. It was the perfect spot to have some down time. Bobs place in North Fork is a !0 out of !0.. I am planning our next adventure, it may be Utah or we just might explore northern California...Bob we will be back....Thanks so much..Stephanie and Tom....Ontario...Canada

Sooo nice
This place is sooo nice! We travelled 3 wks through california and only stayed here for 2 nights, but this place is one of the best we stayed in by far!
Bob's place is clean, nicely decorated, has a beautiful view, and is fully equipped. Bob even provides a BBQ and outdoor fireplace. And I never saw so many hummingbirds and deer in the garden.
I celebrated my birthday away from home, but had one I will never forget. First went to beautifull Yosemite, then had a wonderful BBQ and ended by the fireplace for marshmellows. Later on, Bob joined for some wine and we had a wonderful talk about our lives and the surroundings.
Bob, thank you so much for all your care! We enjoyed this stay sooo much.

Excellent property outside North Fork
We had a very pleasant three night stay at this studio outside North Fork. The property is above the owners house (which he completely built himself, Bob the builder) but has a separate entrance with it’s own parking place. There is a very large garden with barbecue, sitting area and splash pool at the side and back of the house with spectacular views towards the National Park. On my first walk down the garden two deer met me!
The studio is comfortably furnished with widescreen TV with free film channels. There is also an iPod docking station.
The kitchen is well equipped with a fridge/freezer microwave oven, toaster and hotplate.
There is a good Wi-Fi connection and air-conditioning with a ceiling fan in the studio that brought the temperature down to an acceptable level.
A car is essential as the property is outside the town and local shops are about a km away.
There is plenty of information on places to visit in the property. We went to Yosemite National Park (note this drive takes at least one and a half hours on winding roads). Be careful if you undertake one of the walks in the park that you are up to it, ours was described as ‘moderate’ but would have been suitable for a mountain goat in places! Bass Lake is well worth a visit, lots of nice places for picnics and other water activities. Bob loaned us chairs and travel rugs to use.
Bob has really sat down and thought about what guests need in the studio, there are many little extras provided to make your stay comfortable, and it was nice chatting to him one evening.
We would use the studio again if in the area.

Such a special place...
If you are looking for a special place to stay in Yosemite - stop looking and just book this place! We stayed in some fantastic places during our holiday in California in August but Bob's place was by far the best. it is a beautiful, traquil setting, close to the park and the apartment itself is spotless and full of all sorts of things we werent expecting - like a coffee grinder for our morning coffee!! And Bob is the most fantastic host - welcoming, friendly and relaxed. We felt like we had made a friend by the time we left!! We also loved barbequing every night under the stars!!
I cannot recommend this place enough!!! We cannot wait to return.

Nice Stay
Stayed 3 nights. The place is beautiful and clean. Floated in the small pool upon arrival. Great views. Did Yosemite Valley one day and Sequia another day. Bob gave us beach chairs, umbrella and beach towels to use at Bass Lake. Nice added touch with fruit, wine, coffee and staples in refrigerator.

Amazing!!!
I happened to find Bob's place on a last minute search for a place nearby to Yosemite. I definitely got lucky in finding it because it ended up being nothing but perfect! My parents came from NH to visit my husband and I so we planned Labor day weekend to see Yosemite. Staying at Bob's place was great, everything you needed was there and he was an amazing host and great company too! We were only about 30 minutes or so to the South entrance of Yosemite. Also another plus was that Bass Lake was only about a 15 minute drive also. Lots of cute places to eat right on the lake, there is a market there too. We were able to get some food to grill out at Bob's place (of course everything was there that we needed!). Also upon getting there he had a fruit basket, and our now new favorite wine! Everything was so well thought out I couldn't have found a better place to stay. Also Bob was very accommodating to let us bring our dog "Barkley" (the pug) along too (he loves to travel with us if he can!).
Overall we had an amazing time and I'm so glad I came across Bob's place in my search. My husband and I will definitely be back again! I would highly recommend Bob's place to anyone looking to visit Yosemite or just get away to a nice relaxing spot!
