Closest Home to Yosemite Valley on the Merced River

YOSEMITE'S RIVER HOUSE (to receive an accurate quote, contact owner at 209-379-2458)...a newly re-modeled 3 bedroom, 2 bath home with a spectacular view of the Merced River. From its location close to Highway 140-- the 'All-Year Highway' to Yosemite National Park--you are only 5 miles to the Park boundary, and minutes to the incomparable Yosemite Valley. With a fully-equipped kitchen, 2 gas fireplaces, the ONLY private in-ground swimming pool among Yosemite area vacation rentals, and a large deck overlooking the river, YOSEMITE'S RIVER HOUSE is a year-round vacation destination from which to enjoy the sights, sounds, and recreational activities of the 'crown jewel of national parks'.

With 3 bedrooms and a sleeper sofa, YOSEMITE'S RIVER HOUSE can accommodate up to 8 guests. One bedroom has a queen bed, a gas fireplace surrounded by beautiful local rock, and a sublime river view. A second bedroom also has a queen bed, a pool view, and an adjoining full bathroom. The 3rd bedroom has a bunk bed, with a twin mattress on top and a double on bottom. A second full bathroom has been newly renovated in an Art Deco style. The kitchen has everything you'll need, and you'll love the view from the sink, watching the river roll by. The living room has ample comfortable seating, a stone fireplace with gas insert, a 42' HDTV, and DVD player. Wireless internet is also available.

The El Portal area has a fascinating history. The Yosemite Valley Railroad, which ran on what is now Incline road, operated from 1906 until 1942. Before Highway 140 was completed in 1926, the railroad carried passengers to El Portal, from where they would continue their journey to Yosemite via horse-drawn carriages, and later motor-coaches. On the return trip to Merced, the train carried sugar pine logs back to the sawmill.

YOSEMITE'S RIVER HOUSE is on Incline Road (the former railroad bed), a level, paved lane parallel to the Merced River. Because so few cars travel the road, it is ideal for walking, running, skating, and biking. Guests at YOSEMITE'S RIVER HOUSE can take advantage of a variety of seasonal activities in the area, including:

*river rafting, kayaking, and some of California's premier wildflower walks in the spring.
*swimming in the on-site pool and local swimming holes in the summer.
*downhill skiing, cross-country skiing, and snowshoeing at family-friendly Badger Pass in the winter.
*trout and bass fishing in season.
*photography, hiking, bird and wildlife watching, rock hounding, and phenomenal star-gazing all year round.

Staying at YOSEMITE'S RIVER HOUSE is an affordable family vacation, especially when 2 families share the rental and food costs. Upon returning to the house after a day of fun activities, refresh by the pool or relax on the deck and listen to the soothing sounds of the Wild and Scenic Merced River. Cook outside on the gas BBQ, have a delightful meal outdoors, and savor your vacation at our unique location in El Portal, the Gateway to Yosemite.

Loved River House!

Our family of 8 loved staying at Joann’s property! We stayed 4 nights and it was great coming back to relax away from the crowds after each day of hiking in Yosemite. We vacationed with our 5 kids and son-in-law and felt like we had adequate space to spread out. One day the guys hiked Half Dome while the rest of us relaxed by the pool and just enjoyed the house. Thanks, Joann, for sharing your home with us! We hope to come back some day!

Jo Ann's house is perfect for a visit to Yosemite! It is only about 15 min from the entrance to the park. The house is well stocked and squeaky clean. The pool was a wonderful perk and we enjoyed it every afternoon!

Couldn’t have a more beautiful spot next to a river and surrounded by mountains. My three girls loved the pool and we enjoyed sitting on the deck in the early morning and evening. House was clean and close to the park entrance. Highly recommend!!

Great location, 30 minutes to Yosemite. House is well equipped with all the basics and very clean. Two gas fireplaces one in the living room and one in the bedroom. Great location near the river. One bedroom was very comfortable.

Great location!

Great home with ideal location for exploring Yosemite! Accurate online description of the space, great instructions on how to arrive to property given from the host. Property has all the basics you might need, so nice! I agree with other reviews not to count on the sofa bed- the mattress and frame are too uncomfortable to sleep on at this point. That said, I would definitely return to this property in the future- host was helpful and the location is incredible!

Quite Home close to Yosemite

Very quaint home on a private road, sitting peacefully quiet overlooking the Merced river and away from the Hwy. Sitting just south of Yosemite View Lodge, it is an ideal location for a family visiting Yosemite while enjoying a full home. We visit during the summer but can see this as a wonderful summer stay too. The fireplace in the living room was broken but there was a second fireplace to enjoy in one of the bigger bedrooms. The kitchen was well stocked with appliances and the Grill was well maintained. Can see visiting here again when weather is better for pool fun or being by the nearby riverside sands.

Great retreat convenient to Yosemite Valley gate

Very clean! Great location! One of very few properties with a pool. Unfortunately it was too cold when we stayed to use it. Nice amenities. Lots of towels! I would just suggest to owner to move the queen bed to the smallest room and move the bunk beds to that room and add a full or queen bed. There were 5 adultts so one of us ended up sleeping on the couch instead the top bunk, which was squeaky. Over all excellent!

Wonderful home base just outside Yosemite

We were 2 adults & 2 teenage boys on a 5-day hiking trip to Yosemite before school starts. Our camping reservations were cancelled on us so we scrambled to find new lodging. What luck that we found Jo Ann's River House! The house was just wonderful to come home to after many hours on the trails - lots of space to spread out, we all had our own bedroom, pool to splash around and unwind, air conditioning to beat the summer heat, full sized kitchen where we cooked all our dinners, deck to lounge on after dinner when the temperature cooled down, TV and internet if you wanted to stay plugged in, washer & dryer so we left with no dirty clothes. All this while being just 15 mins from the entrance to Yosemite. It was a lot more than our tent cabin reservations, lol, but boy was it worth it!

Lovely Property

Great location- easy access to park. Clean house, well stocked, nice pool and grounds. Not a lot of choices for restaurants or grocery though (El Portal is VERY small and the grocery store extremely limited, especially for meat and veg. Not really any restaurants either unless you drive to Mariposa or into the park). Highly advise bringing a cooler of food with you and cooking at the house.

Fantastic Stay

We couldn't have asked for a better place to stay while visiting Yosemite! In fact, I've stayed in a fair number of rentals and this place ranks at the top for me. The property is beautiful, serene and very comfortable. Our usually-hard-to-please teenagers loved it the moment they stepped foot in the house -- enough said! :) Only a ten minute drive to the park entrance and close to YARTS bus stops if someone wants to use that. We had a wonderful time playing in the pool at the end of a day. There is a stash of games for family game night. My stepson loves to fish and he was able to walk to the river for that. We wish we could've stayed longer! I really can't think of a negative. I recommend visitors stock up on whatever groceries they need before getting there. There is a small store nearby but the nearest well-stocked grocery store is a 45-min drive away.

Absolutely Perfect

Everything was perfect from the view to the location. The pool was the icing on the cake. Everything we needed was provided other then the food but they have everything you needed to prepare any meal. The wildlife on the property was awesome a couple of deer came and visited every night that would come up within 5 feet of us. Words can’t explain how amazing this property is. The drive to Yosemite was along the same river the property was on making the short ride to Yosemite very scenic. Our 4 year old said it was the “best place he’s ever been too”.The house could sleep 8 very comfortably and the sound from the river while in bed put us right to sleep.The whole process from booking to entering the home went smooth with no issues and the host was available and explained everything in great detail. This will be our new vacation spot we will be coming back sooner than expected just because how amazing the house was.
