The Mini Cabin is a beautifully, hand-crafted, authentic full-log interior and exterior cabin with a stylish blend of mountain modern and vintage decor. The owner completely rebuilt The Mini Cabin in 2019, keeping its charm and history as one of Wawo...na's original log cabins, but now with contemporary amenities. The great room is spacious and comfortable, combining the living, dining, and kitchen areas for family and friend gatherings. The kitchen is well-appointed with high-performance appliances and boasts a breakfast bar for optional seating. You'll love sleeping in the handsome, hand-crafted, king-sized bed constructed from repurposed redwood boards sourced from the original Mini Cabin (check out the handmade Manzanita door fixtures also from the original)! The second bedroom has two twin beds. There is a full bathroom with a stall shower and an additional half bathroom. Heating and air units throughout as well as a propane fireplace keep you cozy or cool. The wraparound deck lets you peek at the Merced River through the trees. The deck has plenty of seating for everyone to relax and enjoy the Yosemite surroundings and the soothing sounds of the nearby river. No pets allowed. Single-level, 1125 Sq.

About the Area Nestled just 4 miles inside the southern entrance of Yosemite National Park is the charming and historic town of Wawona. Located at the base of Chilnualna Falls (the second highest vertical drop waterfall in Yosemite), and home to the principal trailheads into the southern Yosemite wilderness, Wawona is also the closest town to the Mariposa Grove of Giant Sequoias. Wawona has the feel of a small town but is bustling with activity! Over 160 residents, including Yosemite Park employees, live in Wawona and can be seen gathering at the town's community center, playing a pick up game of basketball at the elementary school, jogging on one of the many picturesque trails or simply walking their dogs and baby strollers through the winding residential streets. The historic Wawona Swinging Bridge boasts the best natural water slide in the Park! The historic village is filled with docents, stagecoach rides, horseback rides, and barn dances in the summer season and the Wawona Meadow Loop offers year-round riparian meadow wildlife viewing. Wawona was known to the local Native American Miwok in their language as Pallachun (a good place to stay). It is located entirely within Yosemite National Park (it preceded the founding of the park as a national recreation area) and is located on the South fork of the wild and scenic Merced River, on the main highway (State Route 41) from Fresno to Yosemite Valley. Galen Clark, who helped gain preservation legislation for Mariposa Grove and what later became part of Yosemite National Park, occupied the Wawona area in 1855 and established a tourist rest and modest ranch which he later sold and made into a hotel and resort property (the Wawona Hotel). The Wawona post office was established in 1878 and was originally called Clark's Station. The Redwoods In Yosemite has over 110 vacation rental homes and is proud to say that all of them are located in Wawona. All are within walking distance of everything that Wawona has to offer and every one of them is surrounded by the majesty of Yosemite National Park!
