The house was ok. We had plenty of room. The house is is need of renovation and some repairs, many noted by other guests in their reviews. I won't rehash those. I knew the property was near the entrance to the park, but didn't realize it was so far (about an hour on winding roads) up into the mountains to get to the popular parts of the park where the giant trees live. We spent two hours a day commuting to the core of the park. Another thing that impacted our stay was the heat. The house is in a lower, drier, and hotter climate than much of the park. The house has many singled-paned windows with no coverings, allowing a nice view of the foothills, and a lot of heat into the building. We noticed that the hosts have a smart thermostat that was set to override our setpoint at different times of the day. We stay three days and each day we returned to a hot house that required many hours to cool down. The third reason I wouldn't stay here again is that on the day of arrival we received a message from the hosts telling us to not use the WiFi to watch movies or play games. Given that we had no cell phone coverage, we were without alternatives. These kind of rules should be clear and upfront on the website. I travel a lot, but not much in California, so I don't know if this is typical for California, but it is certainly not typical outside of the state. For these reasons I can't justify giving this property more than 3 stars.
