Cozy Cabin with Hot Tub Near Yosemite – Dog FriendlyThis mountain hide-away is truly magical. Explore our six forested and private acres, in the Sierra National Forest. Black Bear Lodge and Bunkhouse Cottage is uniquely situated between two Yosemite entrances. We are 35 miles to the Arch Rock Entrance (access to Yosemite Valley, Yosemite Village, Half Dome, El Capitán and Tunnel View). And, we are 35 miles to the South Gate (access to Wawona, the Mariposa Grove of Giant Sequoias, Bass Lake and the Sugar Pine Railroad). Both drives are absolutely gorgeous and take approximately one hour.Enjoy our brand new hot tub underneath the stars after a day of exploring the nearby National Park. Our outdoor amenities also include a propane BBQ, picnic tables, hammocks and fire pit (weather permitting). For our equestrian travelers, your horses will be as pampered and comfortable as you are in our four stall barn (some with automatic water), turn out pasture, round pen and tack room.Our area also abounds in hiking opportunities (some within walking distance of our home). A dozen or so trailheads are within about ten miles of the property. Of course, some of the most spectacular trails are also within easy driving distance within the National Park. Our all season home has natural attractions year round. In the summer, the mountain ambience can’t be beat with warm days and cool nights. In the fall, the trees in our area are nothing short of gorgeous, and the most picturesque pumpkins patch imaginable is just down the road, featuring a large pond, farm, picnic area, rustic games, and a beautiful setting that’s hard to capture in words. In the winter, the property becomes a snowy wonderland. The wood burning stove is so cozy and charming as you enjoy the falling snow through our two story, gabled windows. And, in the spring, the creeks and rivers are full, and surrounding alpine meadows and mountainsides explode with poppies, lupines, dog woods and other mountain wildflowers.
