Nestled in North Fork, California, the 4,400-square-foot Airbnb is near Yosemite National Park. The lush backdrop of the national forest keeps guard, and the sprawling views are enough to take your breath away. No matter where your eyes lie, the stunning greenery will have your jaw drop. You can have a great time outdoors; you can plunge into the hot tub, take a stroll in the garden, sharpen your short game on the private putting green, enjoy some wide-open mountain views from the deck, and dine and grill. There is so much to do that you will have a hard time choosing one.
Once you are done exploring outdoors, you can walk indoors to cuddle in comfort and coziness. Inside, the living area is expansive with high vaulted ceilings, floor-to-ceiling windows, and warm woodwork to make you feel at home.

The living area is perfect for large gatherings, family dinners, and unforgettable cabin moments with a plush sectional seating, a lovely river rock fireplace, a TV, a beautiful chandelier, and an open-plan layout.

Right behind the living area is the kitchen. It is spacious and fully stocked with day-to-day necessities, stainless steel appliances, more than enough countertop space, and an extensive breakfast bar. You will enjoy your cooking time in the company of panoramic forest views. Done cooking? Double the joy of sharing hearty and homemade meals with your family at the dining table behind the sectional seating, making every meal memorable.
